SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Circuit BreakerINFOID:0000000006275745
The PTC thermistor generates heat in response to current flow. The
temperature (and resistance) of t
he thermistor element varies with
current flow. Excessive current flow will cause the element's temper-
ature to rise. When the temperature reaches a specified level, the
electrical resistance will rise shar ply to control the circuit current.
Reduced current flow will cause the element to cool. Resistance falls
accordingly and normal circuit current flow is allowed to resume.

HARNESS CONNECTOR (SLIDE-LOCKING TYPE)
 A new style slide-locking type connector is used on certain systems and components, especially those
related to OBD.
 The slide-locking type connectors help prevent incomplete locking and accidental looseness or disconnec-
tion.
 The slide-locking type connectors are disconnected by pushing or pulling the slider. Refer to the figure below.
CAUTION:
 Never pull the harness or wires when disconnecting the connector.
 Be careful not to damage the connector su pport bracket when disconnecting the connector.

POWER WINDOW OPERATION
 Power window system is activated by power window switch operation when ignition switch turns ON, or dur-
ing the retained power operation after ignition switch turns OFF.
 Power window main switch can open/close door glass.
 Front and rear power window switch can open/close the corresponding door glass.
 Power window lock switch can lock all power windows other than driver seat.
 All power windows close when pressing Intelligent Ke y lock button or unlock button for 3 seconds.
 If door glass receives resistance that is the specifi ed value or more while power window of each seat is in
AUTO-UP operation, power window operates in the reverse direction.
 Power window serial link transmits the signals from power window main switch to each power window switch.
 AUTO-UP/DOWN operation can be performed when front power window switch turns to AUTO.
POWER WINDOW AUTO-OPERATION
 AUTO-UP/DOWN operation can be performed when each power window motor turns to AUTO.
 Encoder continues detecting the movement of power window motor and output the encoder pulse signal to
power window switch while power window motor is operating.
 Power window switch reads the changes of encoder signal and stops AUTO operation when door glass is at
fully opened/closed position.
 Power window motor is operable in case encoder is malfunctioning.
 AUTO function does not operate if encoder is malfunctioning.
POWER WINDOW SERIAL LINK
Power window main switch, front power window switch (passenger side), rear power window switch LH/RH
and BCM transmit and receive the signal by power window serial link.

CUSTOMER INTERVIEW
Interview the customer if possible, to determine the c onditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer comments. Refer to RF-30, "
Diagnostic Worksheet". This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.
 The customer may not be able to provide a detailed description or the location of the noise. Attempt to obtain all the facts and conditions that exist w hen the noise occurs (or does not occur).
 If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, perform a diagnosis and repair the noise that the customer is
concerned about. This can be accomplished by per forming a test drive with the customer.
 After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so that the customer, service advis er, and technician use the same language when describing
the noise.
 Squeak – (Like tennis shoes on a clean floor)
Squeak characteristics include the light contact / fast movement / brought on by road conditions / hard sur-
faces = high-pitched noise / softer surfaces = low-pitched noises / edge to surface = chirping
 Creak – (Like walking on an old wooden floor)
Creak characteristics include firm contact / slow movement/twisting with a rotational movement / pitch
dependent on materials / often brought on by activity.
 Rattle – (Like shaking a baby rattle)
Rattle characteristics include fast repeated contact / vibr ation or similar movement / loose parts/missing clip
or fastener / incorrect clearance.
 Knock – (Like a knock on a door)
Knock characteristics include hollow sounds / someti mes repeating / often brought on by driver action.
 Tick – (Like a clock second hand) Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of light materials / loose components / can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.
 Thump – (Heavy, muffled knock noise) Thump characteristics include softer knock / dull sounds often brought on by activity.
 Buzz – (Like a bumblebee)
Buzz characteristics include high frequency rattle / firm contact.
 Often the degree of acceptable noise level varies depending upon the person. A noise that a technician may
judge as acceptable may be very irritating to a customer.
 Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperat ure, may have a great effect on noise level.
DUPLICATE THE NOISE AND TEST DRIVE
If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or lo cation of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when the repair is reconfirmed.

Shock AbsorberINFOID:0000000006256002
The use of accumulator-generated pressure responsive to driving conditions or pressure generated by oil flow
to the upper/lower chamber improves the steering stabili ty at curving, in addition to the running performance
and a ride quality during off-road travel.
FRONT SIDE
Oil enters from oil inlet outlet hole (A) and flows into lower chamber (3) via outside oil path of cylinder inside.
Oil enters from oil inlet outlet hole (B) and flows into upper chamber (1). With the pressure difference between
oil flowed into the upper chamber and lower chamber, the piston (2) moves up and down and conveys a force
generated through this motion to the tires.
