4. FUNCTIONS OF RAIN SENSOR
1) Windshield Glass and Coupler Attachment
Check the outer windshield surface of sensing area for wear, damage and scratch. The sensor
is able to compensate the wear up to a specific level. Check the coupler attached surface of
windshield for porosity. If the porosity exists, the sensor cannot function properly.
2) Recognition of AUTO Mode
3) Instant Wipe Function
When the variable resistance knob on the multifunction wiper switch is turned by each 1 stage
from low sensitivity (Smark) to high sensitivity (F mark), the wiper operates one cycle.
And, the wiper also operates during raining up to 5 minutes after rain stops.When the engine is started with the wiper switch “AUTO” position, the wiper operates
one cycle to remind a driver that the wiper switch is in “AUTO” position.
When the wiper switch is turned to “AUTO” from OFF, the wiper operates one cycle. It
always operates one cycle for the initial operation, however, the wiper does not operate
afterwards to prevent the wiper blade wear if not raining when turning the wiper switch to
“AUTO” from “OFF”. However, the wiper operates up to 5 minutes after rain stops.
If this function does not occur, check No. 2 terminal on the rain sensor. If any defective
cannot be found, check the wiper relay (LOW) for defective. 1)
2)
3)If the installed wiper brushes are out of specification (size and length), the rain sensing
area cannot be fully wiped. In this case, the rain sensor’s sensitivity could be
decreased and the wipers are not properly operated -
As described, the STICS recognizes the wiper switch “AUTO” position. If there are not
any problem, go to diagnosis mode in STICS and check the terminal that receives signal
from wiper and communication lines between rain sensor unit and STICS. -

CLUTCH
1. OVERVIEW
1) Driving Elements
The driving elements consist of two flat surfaces machined to a smooth finish.
One of these is the rear face of the engine flywheel and the other is the clutch cover pressure
plate. The clutch pressure plate is fitted into a clutch steel cover, which is bolted to the flywheel.
2) Driven Elements
The driven element is the clutch disc with a splined hub which is free to slide lengthwise along
the splines of the input shaft. The driving and driven elements are held in contact by spring
pressure. This pressure is exerted by a diaphragm spring in the clutch cover pressure plate
assembly.
3) Operating Elements
The clutch control system consists of the clutch pedal, clutch master cylinder, concentric slave
cylinder. This system directly releases the clutch by using hydraulic pressure while the
conventional clutch system releases the clutch by using release lever and release fork. This
system provides higher efficiency than conventional clutch system, and its durability is superior.

1. PROPELLER SHAFT GENERAL INFORMATION
The propeller shaft transfers the power through
the transmission and transfer case to the
front/rear axle differential carrier (final reduction
gear). It is manufactured by a thin rounded steel
pipe to have the strong resisting force against
the torsion and bending. Both ends of propelle
r
shaft are connected to the spider and the cente
r
of propeller shaft is connected to the spline to
accommodate the changes of the height and
length. The rubber bushing that covers the
intermediate bearing keeps the balance of rea
r
propeller shaft and absorbs its vibration.
