Hyundai Santa Fe (DM): General Service Information
General Service Information
Protection Of The Vehicle
Always be sure to cover fenders, seats, and floor areas before starting
work.
The support rod must be inserted into the hole near the edge of
the hood whenever you inspect the engine compartment to prevent the
hood from falling and causing possible injury.
Make sure that the support rod has been released prior to closing
the hood. Always check to be sure the hood is firmly latched before
driving the vehicle.

Preparation Of Tools And Measuring Equipment
Be sure that all necessary tools and measuring equipment are available
starting work.
Special Tools
Use special tools when they are required.
Removal Of Parts
First find the cause of the problem and then determine whether removal
or disassembly before starting the job.
Disassembly
If the disassembly procedure is complex, requiring many parts to be disassembled,
all parts should be disassembled in a way that will not affect their performance
or external appearance.
| 1. |
Inspection of parts
Each part, when removed, should be carefully on suspected for
malfunction, deformation, damage, and other problems.
|
| 2. |
Arrangement of parts
All disassembled parts should be carefully arranged for effective
reassembly.
Be sure to separate and correctly identify the parts to be replaced
from those that will be used again.
|
| 3. |
Cleaning parts for reuse
All parts to be used again should be carefully and thoroughly
cleaned by an appropriate method.
|
Parts
When replacing parts, use HYUNDAI genuine parts.
Replacement
Standard values, such as torques and certain adjustments, must be strictly
observed in the reassembly of all parts.
If removed, the following parts should always be replaced with new ones.
| 1. |
Oil seals
|
| 2. |
Gaskets
|
| 3. |
O-rings
|
| 4. |
Lock washers
|
| 5. |
Cotter pins (split pins)
|
| 6. |
Plastic nuts
Depending on their location.
|
| 7. |
Sealant should be applied to gaskets.
|
| 8. |
Oil should be applied to the moving components of parts.
|
| 9. |
Specified oil or grease should be applied to the prescribed locations
(oil seals, etc) before assembly.
|
Adjustment
Use gauges and testers to adjust correctly the parts to standard values
correctly.
Electrical System
| 1. |
Be sure to disconnect the battery cable from the negative (-)
terminal of the battery.
|
| 2. |
Never pull on the wires when disconnecting connectors.
|
| 3. |
Locking connectors will click when the connector is secure.
|
| 4. |
Handle sensors and relays carefully. Be careful not to drop them
against other parts.
|
Rubber Parts And Tubes
Always prevent gasoline or from touching rubber parts or tubing.
Measuring Body Dimensions
| 1. |
Basically, all measurements in this manual are taken with a tracking
gauge.
|
| 2. |
When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation,
twisting or bending.
|
| 3. |
For measuring dimensions, both projected dimensions and actual
- measurement dimensions are used in this manual.
|
Dimensions Projected
| 1. |
These are the dimensions measured when the measurement points
are projected from the vehicle's surface, and are the reference dimensions
used for used for body alterations.
|
| 2. |
If the length of the tracking gauge probes is adjustable, measure
it by lengthening one of two probes as long as the different value in
height of the two surface.
|
Measuring Actual Dimensions
| 1. |
These dimensions indicate the actual linear distance between measurement
points, and are used as the reference dimensions when a tracking gauge
is used for measurement.
|
| 2. |
First adjust both probes to the same length (A=A') before measurement.
|
Measurement Point
Measurements should be taken at the center of the hole.
Checking Cables And Wires
| 1. |
Check the terminal for tightness.
|
| 2. |
Check terminals and wires for corrosion from battery electrolyte,
etc.
|
| 3. |
Check terminals and wires for open circuits.
|
| 4. |
Check wire insulation and coating for damage, cracks and degrading.
|
| 5. |
Check the conductive parts of terminals for contact with other
metallic parts (vehicle body and other parts).
|
| 6. |
Check grounded parts to verify that there is complete continuity
between their attaching bolt(s) and the vehicle's body.
|
| 7. |
Check for incorrect wiring.
|
| 8. |
Check that the wiring is so clamped to the prevent contact with
sharp corners of the vehicle body, etc. or hot parts (exhaust manifold,
etc.)
|
| 9. |
Check that the wiring is clamped firmly to provide enough clearance
from the fan pulley, fan belt and other rotating or moving parts.
|
| 10. |
Check that the wiring has a little space so that it can vibrate
between fixed and moving parts such as the vehicle body and the engine.
|
Check Fuses
A blade type fuse test taps provided to allow checking the fuse itself
without removing if from the fuse box. The fuse is good if the test lamp lights
up when one lead is connected to the test taps (one at a time) and the other
lead is grounded. (Turn the ignition switch so that the fuse circuit becomes
operative)
Servicing The Electrical System
| 1. |
Prior to servicing the electrical system, be sure to turn off
the ignition switch and disconnect the battery ground cable.
|
| 2. |
Attach the wiring harnesses with clamps so that there is no slack.
However, for any harness which passes the engine or other vibrating
parts of the vehicle, allow some slack within a range that does not
allow the engine vibrations to cause the harness to come into contact
with any of the surrounding parts and then secure the harness by using
a clamp.
|
| 3. |
If any section of a wiring harness interferes with the edge of
a parts, or a corner, wrap the section of the harness with tape or something
similar in order to protect if from damage.
|
| 4. |
When installing any parts, be careful not to pinch or damage any
of the wiring harness.
|
| 5. |
Never throw relays, sensors or electrical parts, or expose them
to strong shock.
|
| 6. |
The electronic parts used in the computer, relays, etc. are readily
damaged by heat. If there is a need for service operations that may
cause the temperature to exceed 80°C (176°F), remove the electronic
parts before hand.
|
| 7. |
Loose connectors cause problems. Make sure that the connectors
are always securely fastened.
|
| 8. |
When disconnecting a connector, be sure to grip only the connector,
not the wires.
|
| 9. |
Disconnect connector which have catches by pressing in the direction
of the arrows shown the illustration.
|
| 10. |
Connect connectors which have catches by inserting the connectors
until they make a clicking sound.
|
| 11. |
When using a circuit tester to check continuity or voltage on
connector terminals, insert the test probe into the harness side. If
the connector is a sealed connector, insert the test probe through the
hole in the rubber cap until contacts the terminal, being careful not
to damage the insulation of the wires.
|
| 12. |
To avoid overloading the wiring, take the electrical current load
of the optional equipment into consideration, and determine the appropriate
wire size.

Precautions For Catalytic Converter
If a large amount of unburned gasoline flows into the converter,
it may overheat and create a fire hazard. To prevent this observe the
following precautions and explain them to your customer.
|
| 1. |
Use only unleaded gasoline.
|
| 2. |
Do not run the engine while the car is at rest for a long time.
Avoid running the engine at fast idle for more than 10minutes and idle
speed for more than 20 minutes.
|
| 3. |
Do not measure engine compression for an extended time. Engine
compression tests must be made as rapidly as possible. Remove the fuel
pump relay before performing a compression test.
|
| 4. |
Do not dispose of used catalytic converter together with parts
contaminated with gasoline or oil.
