Body Electrical System > Horn > Horn > Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with one horn mounted behind the front bumper on the right side. Operation of the horn is
controlled by a switch (horn button) located on the steering wheel. Electrical power from the positive side of the battery is
applied to a horn relay located under the lower panel of the steering column. When the horn button is pressed, the horn
relay is energized, and electrical power is directed to the horn. The circuit is completed by the case-ground of the horn,
and the horn sounds. When force is removed from the horn button, springs force the button upward to open the horn
switch. The relay is de-energized and horn operation stops.

Body Electrical System > Indicators And Gauges > Fuel Gauge > Description and
Operation
DESCRIPTION
The electrical fuel gauge system consists of an electrical panel gauge and a fuel tank sender device. The fuel gauge
indicates quantity of fuel in the fuel tank only when the ignition is turned to the “ON” position. When the ignition switch is
turned to the “ACC” or “LOCK” positions, the pointer does not point to the correct fuel level.
Body Electrical System > Indicators And Gauges > Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge >
Description and Operation
Meters And Gauges (Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge)
The engine coolant temperature gauge in the instrument cluster indicates the temperature of the engine coolant with the
ignition switch in the “ON” position. A sending unit in the engine changes resistance with temperature. The engine
temperature warning light is controlled by a temperature switch by way of the ECM which senses engine coolant
temperatures. When the ignition is in the “ON” position, a test circuit is closed by the ECM and the light comes on to
indicate the lamp is working properly. The coolant temperature indicator comes on at coolant temperatures above 259°F
(125°C) and off when the coolant temperature drops below 230°F (110°C).
Body Electrical System > Indicators And Gauges > Tachometer > Description and
Operation
DESCRIPTION
The tachometer indicates engine speed in rpm (revolutions per minute) with the engine running. A wire to the “TACH”
connector on the ignition module measures the ignition pulses of the module. An electronic circuit on the tachometer
converts these pulses to rpm data.
When removing or installing any electrical units, disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent possible short
circuits which could lead to personal injury and/or property damage.
When replacing the odometer assembly, the law requires the odometer reading of the replacement unit to be set to the
same mileage as the prior odometer. If the mileage cannot be set, the law requires that the replacement odometer be set
at zero and a label be installed on the driver’s door frame to show previous odometer reading and the date of replacement.
Body Electrical System > Indicators And Gauges > Speedometer > Description and
Operation
DESCRIPTION
Speedometer/Odometer/Trip Meter
This instrument cluster assembly includes a speedometer, an odometer and a trip meter. The speedometer indicates
speed. The odometer records total road mileage. The trip meter records trip mileage. The indicator needle is electrically
driven by a precision DC motor circuit. The speed information source is a speed sensor on the transmission. The odometer
and trip meters consists of numbered wheels that are electrically driven by a DC stepper motor.
Body Electrical System > Power Door Locks > Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The power door lock system is comprised of the door lock assembly, power lock motor, inside door handle, outside door
handle, door lock cylinder, and door lock switch. This system is installed on all doors of the vehicle. The system is
activated by the driver’s side door which has a manual door lock system and a door lock switch. The switch is connected
to the time control unit.
http://www.kiatechinfo.com/viewer/toc_print.asp?vehicletype=Passenger&mfrcode=... 10/12/2011
Page 37 of 115
The door lock assembly has four remote control rods. One is attached to the power lock motor (power lock motor rod.)
Thesecond is attached to the inside door handle (inside door handle rod). The third is attached to the outside door handle
(outside door handle rod). The fourth rod is attached to the lock cylinder of the outside door handle (lock cylinder rod).
Depressing and pulling up the door lock knob on the driver’s side door locks and unlocks the remaining three doors of the
vehicle. Depressing the driver’s side knob and closing the door while holding the outside handle locks all four
doors.Opening this door with a key automatically unlocks all four doors. Depressing the driver’s side knob and closing the
door without holding the outside handle unlocks all the doors.
When the door lock knob of the front passenger door is depressed, and this door is closed while holding the outside
handle, only this door locks. If this door is closed without holding the outside handle, it remains unlocked.
The two rear doors are locked by depressing the door lock knobs and closing the doors. These doors also have child
safety locks which, when activated, prohibit opening the doors from inside the vehicle.

The wiper arms are metal arms which pull the wiper blades across the windshield. They are spring-loaded to firmly
hold the blades onto the windshield during the operation of the wiper system. They are individual units consisting of a
driver’s side and a passenger side arm.
• Blades
The wiper blades are metal frames with rubber inserts. They are available as a unit, or the inserts can be replaced
separately.
• Link Assembly
The wiper link assembly connects the wiper motor to the wiper arms. It consists of two connecting rods and two pivot
units. When in operation, the assembly converts the wiper motor’s rotational motion into the proper left/right movement
needed by the wiper arms. If faulty, it can be disassembled, but replacement of the full assembly is recommended.
• Motor and Bracket
The motor is a 12V DC, two-speed unit which provides power to the wiper system. It is connected to a transmission
(gear box) in the mounting bracket which reduces motor rpm and increases torque. This low rpm, high torque motion is
then transmitted to the wiper link assembly. The motor and bracket are a single, replaceable item.
Wipers
The wiper switch controls the operation of the windshield wipersdd.

DESCRIPTION
Headlight Assemblies
Each headlight assembly is aerodynamically shaped to match the contours of the body. The light assembly is attached to
the body by four bolts.
The lens is permanently attached to the plastic refletor. The bulb is of the dual-filament halogen type. The dual filaments
are energized separately to provide high and low beams. An O-ring seals the bulb installation to prevent foreign matter
from entering the headlight assembly. The bulb can be removed/installed from the engine compartment without
removingthe light assembly.

Page 96 of 115
Each headlight can be adjusted to move the beam up, down, left or right. Two adjustment screws for each headlight
assembly are reached through holes in the body structure, directly above the headlight assembly. The inboard screw
adjusts theleft/right headlight beam, and the outboard screw adjusts the headlight beam up/down.
Body Electrical System > Lighting System > Head Lamps > Repair procedures
ADJUSTMENT
The headlights must be properly aimed to obtain the maximum road illumination and safety. Headlights do not require aim
adjustment if the bulb has only been replaced; however, if the entire headlight assembly has been removed, or if a new
assembly is being installed, aiming should be checked, and adjustment make if required.
• Use a commercially available headlight aiming tool.
• Follow tool manufacturer’s instructions.
• Ensure that the vehicle is on a level or near level surface, consistent with the tool being used.
• Inflate the tires to the specified pressure.
• Load the vehicle in the manner that it is normally operated.
