G-sensor(4WD, ABS)
For the vehicle with the ABS, a speed difference
between the wheels is not noticeable as all the
wheels are slipping during abrupt braking.
Therefore, the vehicle needs the speed information
from other sensors other than the wheel speed
sensor. The longitudinal acceleration sensor (G-
sensor) is used for this case. It controls the ABS by
using the signals from the sensor during abrupt
braking and acceleration.
TCU unit
The transmission control unit (TCU) is installed under
the driver seat, and controls the transmission. The
TCU is operated by the ignition power supply and
receives and processes the following information from
the inner sensors through CAN buses.E-coupling unit
The E-coupling unit is a control unit which
determines the magnetic force by
considering CAN signals (wheel speed,
engine torque, pedal opening, ABS/ESP
CAN signals, etc.) from other ECUs.
TGS Lever assembly
The TGS communicates with TCU
(Transmission Control Unit), ECU,
ESP HECU and instrument cluster
to let the driver select the desired
transmission gear and to maintain
the desired driving condition. Also,
the tip switch is installed on the
lever knob and the steering wheel
so that the driver select the gear
manually when the shift lever is in
"M".Sensor cluster
The sensor cluster is linked to
the sensors on the unit board
and CAN interface. And they
are housed in one case and
mounted to the body.

A/T assembly
Automatic transmission is available as 4WD- and 2WD-type,
and provides 6 speeds for forward travel and 1 reverse
travel. It is also equipped with the torque converter with inner
lock-up clutch and electronically controlled solenoid which
controls all hydraulic functions.

PTU (Power Transfer Unit)
The PTU is a device that transfers the power
generated from the engine to the rear axle through
propeller shaft and E-coupling by changing the power

4WD vehicle.
Rear axle assembly
The rear axle installed in this car is a removable
axle, called IRDA (Independent Rear Differential
Axle). The rear differential carrier is installed
directly on the sub frame, and there is an
independent suspension that allows each wheel
on the same axle to move vertically independentl
y
of each other with the universal joint and the slip
joint.
E-coupling control unit (E-Coupling ECU)
The E-coupling unit is a control unit which determines
the magnetic force by considering CAN signals (wheel
speed, engine torque, pedal opening, ABS/ESP CAN
signals, etc.) from other ECUs.

M6LF1 manual transmission
M6LF1 manual transmission is a model modified from the
one that used in other vehicle so that it can be applied to FF
(Front engine-Front wheel driving) type vehicle, and has an
axle in one piece. The engine torque and gear ratio of this
transmission have been optimized to maximize driving
performance. It provides 6 speeds for forward travel and 1
reverse travel.

performance. It provides 6 speeds for forward travel and 1
reverse travel.
The 2WD vehicle with manual transmission is a front wheel drive type vehicle that doesn't have PTU,
propeller shaft, E-coupling and rear axle which are applied to 4WD vehicle. Its under structure is very
simple.

ECU
The ECU controls the electric
power steering system
depending on the driving
conditions, based on the
signals from the torque and
angle sensor.
2) EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Fuse
The vehicle with EPS has
EPS fuse (80A) mounted to
the positive (+) terminal of the
battery, and this fuse supplies
power to the EPS unit
directly..
Steering gear box assembly
When the driver turns the steering wheel, a torque is generated and the torque sensor and the steering
angle sensor in the EPS system detect the rotation of the steering column to run the electric motor. At
this time, the worm gear connected to the motor drives the helical gear mounted to the steering column
to generate the assist torque for the steering column. This allows the driver to operate the steering
wheel easier.

Colum shaft assembly
The column shaft assembly consists
of BLAC motor, ECU, torque and
angle sensors. The electric power
steering (EPS) system uses the
electric motor to assist the steering
force. It functions independently
regardless of whether the engine is
running or not, unlike the existing
hydraulic power steering.
The lower shafts functions in the
same way as the hydraulic type.

3) General Instructions
Before lifting up the vehicle with a lift, correctly support the lifting points.
When using a jack, park the vehicle on a level ground and place the wheel chocks under the tires.
Position the jack under the frame and lift up the vehicle and then support with chassis stand before
service work.
Make sure to disconnect the negative (-) cable from the battery to prevent any damage to electric
systems.
If you have to work on vehicle, cover the seats and floor with protection covers to avoid any
damage and contamination.
Brake fluid and anti-freeze can damage the painted surface of body. So carefully handle them
during service work.
To improve the efficiency of service work, use only recommended and specified tools.
Use only Ssangyong genuine spare parts.
Never reuse the cotter pin, gasket, O-ring, oil seal, lock washer and self-locking nut. Replace them
with new ones. If reused, normal functions cannot be maintained.
Store the disassembled parts as a set based on disassembly order and unit.
Pay particular attention not to miss or mix the fasteners.
If necessary, especially for inspection, clean the removed parts completely.
Apply the oil or grease on the running and sliding surfeces before installation. Use the specified
sealant and gasket to prevent leakage if necessary.
Tighten the fasteners to the specified tightening torque.
As a final stage of service work, check if the serviced system is working properly and the problem
has been eliminated clearly. (1)

4) Basic Inspection
(1) Horn operation
Listen for the horn sound when pressing the horn pad on the steering wheel. -
(2) Brake operation
Check if there is any abnormal noise, unusually long braking distance, or uneven braking force. If the
brake warning lamp does not go out even after starting the engien or are flashing during driving,
have the brake system checked immediately.
Check the brake pipes and hoses for connection, oil leak, crack or interference after changing the
position of tires. When replacing the tires, check the brake disc for surface condition and wear.
Check the parking brake cable and brake operation. Shorten the checking interval if the parking
brake is used frequently. -
-
-
(3) Exhaust system
Be aware to any changes in sound or smell from the exhaust system. These may be caused by leak or
overheat. Have the exhaust system checked and repaired immediately.
Inspect the exhaust system including catalytic converter. Inspect all the components and body frame
near the exhaust system. -
-
(4) Tires
Unusual vibration of the steering wheel and seats or pulling to one side on the straight and level roads
may indicates the uneven tire inflation pressure or poor wheel balance. -
(5) Steering and suspension system
Inspect the front and rear suspension and the steering system for damage, looseness or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering line and the hoses for
connection, leak, crack and chafing. Inspect the drive axle boot and seals for damage, tear or leak.
Replace or repair the system if necessary. -
(6) Engine oil
Check the oil level when the engine is still warm and add the specified engine oil if necessary. -
(7) Coolant
Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir, coolant conditions (contamination, foreign material),
and hoses for damage and leak. Replace or add the Ssangyong genuine coolant, if needed. -
(8) Engine drive belt
Check all drive belts on the engine for wear, crack and looseness. Retighten or replace the belt, if
needed. -
