2013 SSANGYONG KORANDO check engine

Key approval process
When turning the ignition switch to ON position, the power is supplied to BCM and ECU. ECU
communicate with the immobilizer key to check if it is valid crypto code. If it is valid, ECU start to control
the engine when turning the ignition switch to START position.
The system has 10 seconds of valid time-out period. If the engine does not start in this period, the key
approval process should be done again.

Measuring at (-) wiring
Measure the voltage between battery wiring
and body ground. -
Specified valuebelow 0.3V
If the voltage is out of the specified value,
check the wiring mounting bolt for corrosion
and looseness. If there is a poor contact due
to corrosion or paint, wipe out the contact area
and retighten it.
Wiring mounting bolt to body
ground (-): 17 Nm
Measuring the battery voltage
Stop the engine and wait for 20 minutes.
Measure the voltage between terminal (+)
and terminal (-) with the ignition switch OFF
and all electric devices OFF. -
Specified valueover 12V

0000-00
Measuring the voltage drop between lines
Measure the voltage drop between alternator B+ and battery B+. -
Specified valuebelow 0.3V
If the value is out of the specified value, check the terminal and clamp for looseness.
Checking the charge warning lamp
Check if the charge warning lamp goes out.
If the charge warning lamp does not go off, inspect the electric circuit.
Start the engine and check if the charge warning lamp keeps off. 1.

Operation of charge warning lamp
ECU checks the generating voltage from alternator and circuit conditions and sends the warning lamp ON
signal to meter cluster through CAN line.Basic control logic according to the driving conditions
Engine ECU determines the engine loads according to the fuel injection volume and engine speed. It
charges the battery by increasing the generating voltage during deceleration. To improve the fuel
economy by reducing the alternator load during acceleration, engine ECU decreases the generating
voltage and consumes the battery voltage.

2. CHECKING CABLES AND WIRES
Check for loose connection or rust.
Check terminals and wires for corrosion due to electrolyte leakage.
Check terminals and wires for open circuit.
Check the wire insulation and coat for damage, cracks or deterioration.
Check if the conductive parts of the terminals do not contact with vehicle body or other metal parts.
Check that the grounding part has continuity with mounting bolts and vehicle body.
Check that wires are properly routed.
Make sure that wires are securely fixed to avoid contact with sharp body parts and high-temperature
parts, such as the exhaust manifold and exhaust pipes.
The rotating parts, such as fan pulley and fan belt, perturbative parts and wiring should be secured
tightly at regular intervals.
Secure the wiring between the fixed parts, such as the vehicle body, and vibrating parts, such as the
engine, after slackening it slightly to prevent it from being damaged. -

Wiper troubleshooting
The wiper does not cycle one time when turning the multi-function wiper
switch from OFF to AUTO position or when starting the engine with the multi-
function wiper switch in AUTO position. Symptom 1.
When starting the engine with the multi-function wiper switch in AUTO position, the wiper always
cycles one time to remind the driver of system in AUTO mode.
This wiper operation is performed only for the first time when turning the multi-function wiper switch
from OFF to AUTO position with IGN ON. If the switch is turned from OFF to AUTO again after
that, the wiper is operated only when raining to prevent the wiper blade from wearing. 1.
2.
It rains but the wiper does not work with the wiper switch in AUTO position. Symptom 2.
Check if the multi-function wiper switch is in AUTO position.
Check the power to the rain sensor. That is, check the pin no. 3 (GND) and pin no. 4 (IGN).
Check that the wiper relay is intact. 1.
2.
3.
The wiper operates 3 or 4 times with high speed abruptly. Symptom 3.
Check if the wiper speed control switch is set to the fast side.
The fast stage has the highest sensitivity and is very sensitive to the small change of amount of rain
drops. Therefore, adjust the knob to lower the sensitivity level.
The wiper continues work even if the windshield glass is dry. Symptom 4.
Check the wiper blade for wear. If the wiper blade cannot wipe the glass uniformly and clearly, this
problem could occur. In this case, replace the wiper blade with a new one.
Check if the wiper speed control switch is set to the fast side. 1.
2.
The fast stage has the highest sensitivity and is very sensitive to the small change of amount of rain
drops. Therefore, adjust the knob to lower the sensitivity level.
The overall wiper response is too fast or slow. Symptom 5.
Check if the wiper speed control switch is set to the fast or slow side.
Notify that the user can select the sensitivity by selecting the variable resistance value. And, select a
proper stage.The wiper also cycles one time when the multi-function wiper switch is turned from OFF to AUTO
position during 5 minutes after the rain stops.

24. IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM
1) System Description
The BCM without SKM communicates with the transponder in the REKES key and immobilizer unit in
the key box through wireless communication. The immobilizer unit and BCM check the encrypted codes
received through hard wire communication to start the engine.
Stays on: Communication failure between immobilizer and EMS (ECU)
Flashes: Immobilizer coding failure (once per second)

1. OVERVIEW
The SKM (Smart Key Module) system is equipped to only the vehicles with smart key and is to prevent
theft and enhance the driver experience. When the driver presses a door handle switch carrying a smart
key, this system checks the smart key information and driver door status and locks/unlocks the doors
(passive function). The vehicle can be started when the driver enters the vehicle and presses the
START/STOP switch (passive start function).
