▶Defective Rain Sensor
The wiper relay (LOW) is turned on and the wiper motor runs one cycle when the volume
sensitivity is changed to 2 from 3 during receiving the malfunction signal from the rain
sensor, while the ignition key is in "ON" position and the wiper switch is in "ON" position. -
The wiper relay (LOW) is turned on and the wiper motor runs one cycle when the volume
sensitivity is changed to 3 from 4 during receiving the malfunction signal from the rain
sensor, while the ignition key is in "ON" position and the wiper switch is in "ON" position. -

Check whether the multifunction wiper switch is in the "AUTO" position.
Check the power to the sensor. Check the conditions of the pin 3 (Ground) and the pin
4 (IGN).
Check the wiper relay for defective. 1)
2)
3) Symptom 2. It rains but the system does not work in "AUTO" position. TROUBLE SHOOTING ▶
The wiper does not operate one cycle when turning the multifunctio
n
wiper switch to the "AUTO" from the "OFF" position or starting the engine
while the wiper switch is in the "AUTO" position.
When starting the engine with the multifunction wiper switch in the "AUTO" position,
the wiper operates one cycle to remind a driver that the wiper switch is in the "AUTO"
position.
When the multifunction 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. 8 pin. If the pin is normal,
check the wiper relay related terminals. 1)
2)
Symptom 3. The wiper operates 3 or 4 times at high speed abruptly.
Check whether the variable resistance knob on the multifunction wiper switch is set in
"FAST". The "FAST" is the highest stage of sensitivity and very sensitive to small amount
of rain drops. Therefore, change the knob to low sensitivity.
Symptom 4. The wiper operates continuoulsy even on the dry windshield glass.
Check the wiper blade for wear. If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly
and clearly, this problem could be occurred. In this case, replace the wiper blade
with new one.
Check whether the variable resistance knob on the multifunction wiper switch is set
in "FAST" The "FAST" is the highest stage of sensitivity and very sensitive to small
amount of rain drops. Therefore, change the knob to low sensitivity. 1)
2) Symptom 1.

▶Auto Light Control
The tail lamps and headlamps can be controlled by the communication with the rain
sensor only when the auto light switch is in "AUTO" position with the ignition switch "ON". -
Rain detected headlamp: If it rains heavy which requires the highest INT speed (almost
LOW), the headlamps are turned on automatically. -
Night detected wiping: When the auto light control turns on the headlamps and the rain
sensor detects the rain, the wiper sensitivity is automatically increased by one level in
comparison with daytime.
(i.e. the AUTO wiper switch is at the 3rd level, but the wiper operates at the 4th level.) -
Enlarged auto light sensor Emitter lens
The LED emitting the infrared
rays is installed on the bottom
and the lens guides the
infrared rays to target point.

▶Volume Sensitive INT (Intermittent) Wiper
For RKSTICS without the rain sensor, perform the following operation:
Controls the wiper intermittent operation by the values from the vehicle speed and the
volume (resistance). -
Calculates and converts the Intermittent interval automatically by obtaining the IN
T
VOLUME when the ignition switch and the INT switch is in the "ON" position.
The wipers are operated in vehicle speed sensitive mode when turning the INT switch to
the "ON" position with the engine running or starting the engine with the INT switch
positioned to "ON".
Intermittent interval (at 0 km/h): 3 ± 0.5 ~ 19 ± 2 seconds ˙

Vehicle speed calculation -
[Input the vehicle speed]
It is calculated by the numbers of input pulses for one second.
VOLUME calculation -
The pause time of the vehicle speed sensitive INT wiper is calculated by the INT volume
(input voltage). Each level has the hysteresis. ˙
Pause time calculation -
Pause time means the duration that wipers are stopped at parking position.
Elapsed time means the duration after the wiper motor started to operate from parking
position.
The pause time is calculated by the vehicle speed and the VOLUME.
※If the pause time is below 1.0 second, the wipers operate without pause.
※If the pause time is over 1.5 seconds, the wipers operate intermittently. ˙

2) Speedometer Gauge
The speedometer indicates the vehicle speed by calculating the signals from the rear left and rear
right wheel speed sensors through ABS or ESP unit. (For the vehicle without ABS or ESP, the
signals are received from the EMS)
If the speedometer gauge vibrates, stops at a certain range or makes an abnormal noise, there
could be defectives in speedometer. However, these symptoms also could be occured when th
e
tire has uneven wear, different tire inflation pressures or different tire specifications.
Perform the speedometer test regarding the tolerance as described. However, it is not similar
simple work in field due to lack of measuring conditions such as test equipment and preciseness.
Check the allowable tolerance of the speedometer and operations of the trip odometer by
using a tester.
Check if the speedometer pointer is shaking and the abnormal noise sounds.
Eliminate the hysteresis by tapping the speedometer. 1.

4) Coolant Temperature Gauge
The coolant temperature gauge displays the coolant temperature with a pointer. The angle of
pointer that changes by coolant temperature is as shown below.
Measurement of coolant temperature sensor resistance
Measure the resistance between the terminal and the ground with an ohmmeter and replace if the
resistance is out of specified range.
Temperature (ºC)20 60 80 100 120
Resistance (Ω)2449Ω ± 5% 589.4kΩ ±

Voltage (V)3.615 1.910 1.259 0.819 0.536
When the resistance value by coolant temperature is within the specified range, check
thermostat, water pump, radiator related coolant circuit for normal operation. Also, check the
wiring harnesses and connectors for proper connection.

ABS Warning Light
This warning light comes on
when the ignition switch is
turned to "ON" position and
should go out if the system is
normal.
The vehicle with ABS performs
self-diagnosis. During this
diagnosis, brake pedal
vibration and noise may be
apparent when the driving
motors discharges the
hydraulic pressure from the
internal hydraulic device.4WD IndicatorLow Fuel Level

1. OVERVIEW
The wiper and washer system are controlled by STICS according to driver's wiper switch
operation. And the detection of rain drops by rain sensor is transmitted to STICS as the signal for
wiper system control.
(saem as KYRON)
The characteristics of the wiper and washer system including basic functions of manual wiper are
as follows.
1) Wiper Function Coupled Auto Washer
Pressing the AUTO washer switch with the
ignition key OFF and INT AUTO switch OFF
sprays the washer fluid for 2 sec. and
operates the wiper 4 times and then
immediately sprays the washer fluid for 1.5
sec. and operates the wiper 3 times.
2) Integrated Auto Light Sensor in Rain Sensor Unit
The rain sensor unit is installed on the best
location to detect the rain drops and the
lighting intensity. And an auto light sensor is
newly integrated into the rain sensor unit for
more precise measurements. To control the
system, the sensed values of rain sensor and
auto light sensor are sent to pin no. 63 in
STICS unit. Auto
