GOOD WORKSHOP PRACTICE & SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
Following are some safety precautions to be observed in
the workshop.
l Always ensure that all the repair / maintenance work
carried out should be as per the instructions provided
in the workshop manual.
l Use protective clothing, apron, hand gloves, and safety
shoes while working in the workshop. Do not wear
watch, rings and belt while serving the vehicle.
l Keep your work area, equipment and tools clean at all
times.
l Make sure you use the proper tool for the job and use
it the rightway. The improper tool or its incorrect use Fig. 1
can damage the part you are working on or cause
injury or both.
l Never keep the tools on the floor/vehicle. The tools
should be kept in the tool box after use.
l Cover fenders, seats, steering wheel and any other
parts those are likely to get scratched/soiled before
starting any service work (Fig. 1).
l While servicing the vehicle in engine running condition
make sure that the gear shifting lever is in neutral
position and parking brake is fully applied. Never run
the engine without proper ventilation and adequate
means of getting rid of exhaust gases.
l Do not work near the radiator fan when engine is ‘ON’
to avoid getting injured by electrically operated
radiator fan.
Fig. 2
l Prior to removing or disassembling parts, they must
be inspected carefully to isolate the cause for which
the service is called for (Fig. 2).
l All the reusable dismantled components must be kept
in a clean enamel coated white tray sequentially in an
orderly manner to facilitate their accurate and proper
reinstallation (Fig. 3).
l Never reuse the parts like oil seals, gaskets, packing,
O-rings, locking washers, split pins, self locking nuts
and certain other parts.
l Plug the ports / openings of aggregates such as FIP /
Injectors, TMC, etc., whenever removed from the car.

Precaution for Catalytic Converter (MPFI Petrol


Engine) : (Fig. 6).
Caution : If large amount of unburnt fuel goes into
the converter, it may overheat and creat a fire hazard.
To prevent this, observe the following precautions.
l Use only unleaded gasoline.
l Engine compression checks should be carried out
within the shortest possible time only.
l If necessary then only conduct a spark jump test within
the shortest possible time.
l Do not run the engine when the fuel tank is nearly
empty to avoid engine misfire and damage to catalytic
converter.

Precaution for Electrical circuit service :
l Disconnect the negative cable of the battery while
servicing the electrical parts that do not require battery
power (Fig. 7).
l While removing the battery first disconnect the
negative cable and then the positive cable. While
reinstalling the battery, first connect the positive cable
and then negative cable.

Fig. 7

l Be sure to turn the ignition switch off before


disconnecting and connecting coupler to avoid
electronic parts damage (Fig. 8).
l Do not touch the electrical terminals of parts which
use microcomputers (e.g. electronic control units like
ECM etc.) to avoid damage to these parts from static
electricity from your body (Fig. 8).
l Always use the correct voltmeter, ohmmeter for taking
measurement to avoid damage to the electronic
control unit and sensors.
l Make sure to insert the probe from wire harness side
of the connector for taking measurement.

Fig. 8

l Make sure the connector halves are mating properly


and terminals seating precisely in the connector body
(Fig. 9).

l Dirt / corroded terminals result in improper contact.
The terminals should be cleaned carefully.
l Improper contact pressure between mating terminals
disturbs the connectivity between them.
l Replace the damaged connector body to avoid
exposure of the terminals in case of inadequate
contact pressure.
l Ensure proper connection between the terminal to
the wire. Rectify the loose connection by repairing /
replacing the wire harness (Fig. 10).
l Worn out insulation of the wire may result in short
circuit.
l Avoid water entering the connectors.
Fig. 10

Towing the Vehicle : (Fig. 11a & 11b).


l For towing a car, the best way is to use a wrecker.
Alternatively use a rigid tow bar.
l Avoid using a flexible cable or rope as your car may
crash into the car towing your car when it stops
suddenly.
l Switch ‘ON’ the hazard warning signals of both the
cars to warn other road users.
l Where possible, keep the engine idling so that power
steering assistance and brake vacuum are available.
l Limit the speed to 20-30 Kmph.
l In case of brake failure, use the parking brake to

Care should be taken that the hoist arm is not in contact
with the bracket, brake or fuel pipes etc.
Before servicing, make sure to lock the hoist after the
vehicle is lifted up.
When using the floor jack :
Use the jacks at the locations indicated (Fig 13).
Rear Jacking Point
Do not apply the jack against any part which may get
deformed.
If front end or rear end of the vehicle is to be jacked
ensure the wheels on ground are blocked with wheel
chocks for safety.

TIGHTENING TORQUES :
The fasteners should be tightened to specified torque at recommended intervals (km). If various fasteners are not
tightened to specified torques, that is either over tightened or let loose, it will result in leakage at joints and ENGINE
damage to the parts/threads. It will also adversely affect the performance of the parts/systems as clearances/
bearing plays in the aggregates are governed by the tightening torques of the fasteners.
When choosing the torque wrench, remember that it should not be subjected to torque exceeding three fourths
of its capacity. Before tightening, clean the threads and apply a little oil.

FUEL INJECTOR Fig 29 & 30


Type :
ENGINE
JS 2J - 3 Ball valve and Top feed
2 Pin Connector
Working Principle : Fig. 31
A solenoid valve, normally closed by a ball and cone seat,
opens when the electromagnetic core is energised. Fuel
under pressure flows through swirler and metering orifice
on the ball seat. This ensures fine atomisation and
consistent flow rate for a given Injector opening time.The
Injectors
ball type seating valve acts as a good anti-deposit.
System Integration :
ECU provides drive signal to Injector (normally closed Fig. 29 Fuel Injectors location in the engine
valve) to open and remain in open condition (pulse width-
ms) depending upon the engine operating conditions
(speed/load). Also the pulse width is compensated for
low battery voltage condition. The concept of Grouped
injection means when ECU provides drive signal, two
injectors (either for cyl 1&4 or cyl 2&3) are simultaneously
opened, one in end of compression and one in end of
exhaust. This means approximately half of the required
quantity of fuel for one power output is provided in two
stages. This enables efficient control of Air/Fuel ratio by
modifying injected fuel quantity in the second half of the
injection.
Fitment Data :
Four numbers of injectors are fitted on inlet manifold and
fuel is fed by a common fuel rail so that the fuel spray
from each injector is directed towards the inlet valve, inside
the inlet port. Fig. 29 Fig. 30 Fuel Injector

Diaphragm type valve (variable pressure)
Pneumatic Regulator
Working Principle : Fig. 34
A diaphragm operated valve regulates pressure at fuel
inlet and returns the excess fuel back to the tank. The
diaphragm is operated by differential pressure
between fuel rail and intake manifold.
System Integration :
Intank fuel pump provides fuel at very high flow rates
to common fuel rail where pressure regulator Fig. 32 Fuel pressure regulator
regulates according to the position of diaphragm. This
diaphragm is held in an equilibrium position as a result
of fuel pressure acting on one side and manifold
vacuum acting on the other side of the diaphragm.
The excess fuel, after regulation is returned back to
fuel tank. This ensures a constant operating pressure
of 3 bar across Injector inlet and outlet, at all engine
operating conditions.
Fitment Data :
This regulator is fitted on the Fuel rail. Fig. 32

IGNITION COIL ASSEMBLY Fig. 37 & 38


Type :
ENGINE
CM12 - 100D
Duel Spark Coil with built in Power Switch
4 Pin Connector
Working Principle :
This ignition coil operates on conventional principle of
secondary (high) voltage generation by induction.
However, primary current switching (ON/OFF) is triggered
by an electronic circuit on ECU which also maintains
constant dwell time (time required to energise primary
coil) throughout the engine operating conditions.
System Integration :
ECU provides the trigger pulse to switch ON/OFF the power Fig. 37 Ignition coil with built in power switch
switch built in the coil which provides 2 sparks
simultaneously in cylinders 1& 4 or 2&3 as both the ends
of the secondary coil is ending with sparkplugs. This
concept called Grouped Ignition, means two sparks
occur for one useful power output (i.e. one spark in the
end of compression & one spark at the end of exhaust).
This enables maintenance of optimum dwell time at very
high engine speeds.
Fitment Data :
The ignition coil is fitted beneath the inlet manifold to
have the shortest possible length for High tension cable
to connect Sparkplugs. This is done to reduce the level of
electromagnetic radiation from HT cables and possible
interferance w.r.t. the functioning of ECU. Fig. 37

Checking oil pressure :


Procedure for checking
ENGINE
Before conducting the test ensure :
1. Engine oil level is at high mark on dipstick, otherwise
top up.
2. No leakage.
3. Correct grade of engine oil is used.
Remove electrical connection from oil pressure transducer.
Remove oil pressure transducer from cylinder block.
Install Oil pressure gauge in place of oil pressure
transducer.
Start engine and warm it up to normal operating
temperature.
Warm up the engine and measure oil pressure. It
should be within specified limits.
After checking oil pressure, stop engine and remove
oil pressure gauge.
Before reinstalling oil pressure transducer, be sure to
apply sealant on screw threads and tighten transducer
to specified torque.
Tighten oil pressure switch to 1.2 - 1.5 mkg torque.
4. MECHANICAL FAILURES
Metallic knocking sound from an engine may be due
to faulty ignition, excessive clearance in main and big
end bearings, small end bush, tappets, piston slap,
seizing of piston rings, scored cylinder bore or
breakage of any moving parts.
Defective alternator can also be a source of mechanical
noise. Defect can be located by replacing alternator
or power steering pump (if fitted) or AC compressor
(if fitted) or belt tensioner pulley with a new one.
Dismantling of engine may be considered if still noise
occur even after attending all above mentioned
problems.

SPARK PLUG DEFECTS


The condition of spark plug firing ends can act as a
guide to the state of tune and general condition of
the engine.
NORMAL Fig. 91
Core nose lightly coated with grey-brown deposits.
Electrodes not burning unduly - gap increasing about
0.01 mm per 2000 km (with the use of unleaded fuel).
Spark plugs ideally suited to engine.
HEAVY DEPOSITS Fig. 92
Possible causes : Fuel or oil additives. Oil in combustion
chamber. Worn valve guides. Unvarying speed
Fig. 91 Fig. 92
(stationary engine). Replace spark plugs.
CARBON FOULING
Characterised by dull black sooty deposits although
unleaded fuel carbon fouling can appear as glossy
deposits similar in appearance to oil fouling. Deposits
can short circuit the firing end; weakening or
eliminating the spark. Check for : Over-rich mixture
setting, faulty choke mechanism or clogged air filter.
Replace spark plugs.
OIL FOULING
Deposits can short-circuit the firing end, weakening or
eliminating the spark. May be caused by worn valve guides,

bores or piston rings, or whilst a new or overhauled engine


is running-in. Cure the oil problem, if possible. Temporary
use of the next hotter grade of spark plug may stop the
ENGINE
misfire. Replace spark plugs.
OVERHEATING
Likely causes are : Over-advanced ignition timing. incorrect
distributor advanced curve. Use of fuel with insufficient
octance rating. Weak mixture. Discard spark plugs showing
signs of overheating, and cure the cause.
INITIAL PRE-IGNITION
Caused by serious overheating. Causes are those listed
for overheating but may be more severe. Corrective
measures are urgently needed before engine occurs.
Discard plugs in this condition.

FUEL
FEED
SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION : The fuel system consists of fuel tank, intank fuel pump,
fuel filter, fuel lines and fuel rail. The fuel in the tank is
pumped up by the fuel pump, filtered by the fuel filter
and fed under pressure to each injector. The fuel
pressure at the injector is always higher than the
intake manifold pressure. The fuel is injected into the
intake port of the cylinder head when the injector opens
according to the injection signal from ECU (Engine
Control Unit).

The evaporative emission system for tank ventilation


is “closed” type. The system prevents fuel vapours
formed within the tank and fuel system from entering
the atmosphere. It also prevents the release of their
load of polluting light hydrocarbons (HC).

8. Fuel Pressure regulator • Release the fuel pressure from the fuel system to
The evaporative emission system consists of : reduce the possibility of injury or fire.
a) Tank pressure valve • While removing the fuel tank from the vehicle, keep
b) Canister purge valve sparks, cigarettes and open flames away from it.
c) Carbon canister
d) Resistor • Before repairing fuel tank assembly, clean it
e) Vapour separator thoroughly.

GENERAL OPERATION OF
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM:
The system operates when outdoor temperature is
higher, after the vehicle has been parked / standstill
for a long time, the fuel temperature increases and
brings about a pressure rise inside the tank. This
increase may occur with medium - low fuel levels or
with the tank full condition.

During tank refilling, the pressure inside is more or


less same as atmosphere pressure. The breather port
on fuel tank is connected to the breather port on filler
neck which allows tank breathing during fuel filling.
When the tank is completely filled, there is small
pocket of air provided for efficient operation of the
evaporative control system when the vehicle is
running.
When the fuel filler cap is closed, it seals the
system, the vapours generated inside the tank (with
vehicle moving or while parked) build up due to fuel
volatility, and tank internal pressure also builds up until
the tank pressure valve opening level is exceeded.

When the engine is inoperative, (i.e.while parked), fuel


vapour generated inside the fuel tank due to fuel volality
are absorbed and stored in the canister. When the
engine is running, the fuel vapours absorbed in the
canister are purged into intake manifold through
canister purge valve operated by the ECU.

FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR


This regulator is fitted on the Fuel rail. Fig. 13a
A diaphragm operated valve regulates pressure at fuel
inlet and returns the excess fuel back to the tank. The
diaphragm is operated by differential pressure between FUEL
fuel rail and intake manifold. FEED
SYSTEM

Intank fuel pump provides fuel at very high flow rates


to common fuel rail where pressure regulator regulates
according to the position of diaphragm. This diaphragm
is held in an equilibrium position as a result of fuel
pressure acting on one side and manifold vacuum
acting on the other side of the diaphragm. The excess
fuel, after regulation is returned back to fuel tank. This
ensures a constant operating pressure of 3 bar across
Injector inlet and outlet, at all engine operating Fig. 13aFuel pressure regulator

d) Carbon canister : Fig. 26 & 27
A canister made of high grade Nylon 66/PA66,
containing special dust free activated carbon is used
to adsorb fuel vapours. The lower end of the canister
is open to atmosphere for ventilation. The end is not
really open but there is foam filter. The purpose of the
bottom filter is to protect the canister from dust and
dirt during operation. When the engine is inoperative
(i.e. while parked) fuel vapours generated inside the
fuel tank due to fuel volatility are absorbed and stored
in the canister through tank pressure valve. When the
engine is running, the fuel vapours absorbed in the
canister are purged into intake manifold through
canister purge valve operated by ECU. The purging
takes place due to air drawn through the canister
because of pressure differential between manifold
vacuum and atmosphere.

2b. OPERATING CONDITIONS


Cars operating on shorter runs, city operations, off
highway and operations in hilly terrains are obviously
subjected to more number of clutch operations and
thereby higher clutch wear.
3. PRELIMINARY INSPECTION OF CLUTCH
Clutch needs replacement mainly on account of clutch
slippage or imperfect engagement and
disengagement. This may be due to worn out/
damaged clutch parts. It is desirable to carry out the
CLUTCH following preliminary checks before removal of the
clutch for replacement of the parts. Before carrying
out the tests, check the clutch cable for damage and
also check for proper position of the clutch pedal.
3a. CLUTCH SLIPPAGE TEST
Clutch slippage can be confirmed by any of the
following two methods :
i) Drive the car in 1st or 2nd gear at maximum
speed corresponding to that gear. Keeping the
accelerator pedal pressed with your right foot,
apply brake gradually with your left foot. If the
engine stalls, it means that clutch does not slip.
ii) Drive loaded car in 3rd gear on level ground
and let the speed drop down to
approximately 15 kmph. Now press the
accelerator pedal fully.With slipping clutch, the
car speed will not pick up and also clutch
burning smell will be noticed. If this does not
occur and the car picks up speed, it indicates
that clutch does not slip.
3b. CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT AND
DISENGAGEMENT TEST
During the clutch slippage test, when the car is in
motion, depress clutch pedal fully without
changing the accelerator pedal position. If the engine
speed increases immediately, perfect clutch
disengagement is indicated. Further, release the
clutch pedal suddenly. If the car moves forward with
a little jerk, perfect clutch engagement is indicated.
CAUTION :
This test should be carried out with utmost care because
sudden release of the clutch might cause heavy jerk
and damage to the clutch lining.

INTRODUCTION : The Indica MPFI - Euro II has a transversely mounted


engine and transaxle. This layout of engine is typical
of front wheel driven cars. The propeller shafts and
centre joints are eliminated and the gear box and
differential are integrated into a single housing termed
as Transaxle. The drive is transmitted to front wheels
from differential side gears through constant velocity
shafts.

Since the final drive axis and crankshaft axis are


parallel, there are no crown wheel and tail pinion.
Instead the final reduction is done by a pair of helical
gears.

All the forward gears are synchromesh and reverse


gear is sliding mesh.

The gear shifting conforms to international H pattern,


5th and reverse being in line. All layshaft gears are
free on it without needle bearings.

There is no pilot bearing for the input shaft and there


are no control dimensions to be maintained on input
shaft and layshaft. Pinion is integral with the input
shaft and all the gears on the input shaft are located
by circlips.

Speedo cable drive is located on differential housing.

OUTER JOINT (OUT BOARD JOINT) :

The outer joints use the Constant Velocity (CV) joint


design, which is the standard outboard joint for front
wheel drive cars. It is a fixed centre ball type joint. The
outer housing is made using special steels by cold
forming process followed by heat treatment. The cold-
formed surfaces give superior wear resistance and
increased joint life. The main function of the outboard
joint is to allow the vehicle’s wheels to turn during
steering operation or have a steer capability.

This is a Constant Velocity universal joint radically


self supported and permitting axial movement

GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR TESTING


DRIVE SHAFT NOISE : Extreme
RIGHT
• Ensure that the DRIVER is alone in the vehicle Turn
while conducting the test.
• All the windows of the vehicle should be fully
rolled-up to reduce the disturbances caused by
external noises.
• Drive on a smooth stretch of road and pay
particular attention to various noises emanating
from the front portion of the vehicle. Observe the
changes in noise levels through speeds between
10 and 60 kmph (6 and 36 mph). Extreme
LEFT Turn
• It should be noted here that the driver may
encounter difficulty in distinguishing between Fig. 36
similar sounding noises resulting from either the
DRIVE drive shaft or the under-body (for example noise
SHAFT
from Strut & Caliper).
• Therefore, it is advised that the car be driven on
uneven and bumpy surfaces as well, to observe
the noises which may then be attributable to the
under-body.
• Focus on that side of the car being considered
for the drive shaft complaint.
• Tests for CV (wheel side) and Inboard (engine
side) joints are different and need to be conducted
separately.

TESTING FOR NOISE :


Checking for wheel side (CV) joint noise:
(This noise will appear to emanate closer to the wheel,
rather than the engine).
1. Shift to the 2nd gear and maintain a steady speed
between 20 and 30 kmph (12 and 18 mph).
2. Drive the car to form a figure of “8” as shown in
the Fig. 124 alongside.
Identify an audible and persistent “Cluck” – like
noise during either an extreme left or extreme
right turn
3. The “Cluck-ing” noise on a particular turn can
be confirmed by repeating the turn.

22
NEXT
INDEX GROUP INDEX
PREVIOUS
DRIVESHAFT

Checking for engine side joint noise :


(This noise will appear closer to the engine, than the
wheel).
1. Shift to the 4th gear and maintain a steady speed
between 40 and 60 kmph (24 and 36 mph).
2. Lower the car speed by gently applying the
brakes while ensuring that the tyres do not
screech and the car does not dive forward sharply.
3. Identify an audible ”Dug” sounding noise as the
car decelerates.
As the car slows down, it can be observed that
the sound would become louder and occur after
longer intervals.
Other useful observation will include :

SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSIS
DRIVE
SHAFT
• Noise accompanied by vibration of the brake pedal A. Vibration could be from the calipers and
& not from the drive shaft.
B. If there is NO vibration on the pedal, the
noise could be from the drive shaft.

INTRODUCTION : The front and Rear suspension of Indica are Independent


type Suspension i. e. each wheel is a separately suspended
unit connected to body in such a way that the rise and fall SUSPENSION

of one wheel does not affect the other wheel directly.


This helps each wheel to maintain a level position
regardless of influences on the other wheel.
The Front suspension is Mc pherson strut type and the
Rear suspension is of Independent semi-trailing arm type

PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING THE BALL JOINT PLAY
ON FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER ARM BALL JOINTS
It is recommended that the axial play on the ball joints
should be checked as per the procedure given below
before removal of the ball joints.
Note : Please check tightening torque of all nut & bolts on
the ball joint mounting bracket and ball pin nut before
checking the ball joint play.
The front lower arm ball joints play should be checked at
every 10,000 kms as per the procedure given below.
Procedure :
a) Apply the parking brakes and remove front wheel
by jacking up the car with the help of a floor jack or
by lifting it on a two pole hoist Fig. 29a
b) Mount the dial gauge with magnetic stand on the
brake disc as shown in Fig. 29a
Important : Note that the Dial Indicator plunger axis
should be perpendicular to the ball joint bottom face for
the correct reading. SUSPENSION

c) The tip of the dial gauge should be in contact with


the lower arm ball joint bottom plate. ( With
preloading of about 1mm on the dial gauge).
d) Place another jack under the lower arm by gently
lifting up the lower arm. The jack is to be placed
under the lower arm as shown in Fig. 29b.
e) As the jack is lifted slowly spring in the ball joint gets
fully closed (solid) at a load of about 100 kg. and
then the dial gauge needle will start moving and
indicate the play in the ball joint.
f) Keep on increasing the load by lifting up the lower
arm till the needle stops moving further. Note the
reading. This should not be more than 0.5 mm.
Do not further load the ball joint after the needle
movement stops.
g) If the reading found is in excess, replace ball joint.

type Suspension i. e. each wheel is a separately suspended
unit connected to body in such a way that the rise and fall
of one wheel does not affect the other wheel directly.
This helps each wheel to maintain a level position
regardless of influences on the other wheel.
The Front suspension is Mc pherson strut type and the
Rear suspension is of Independent semi-trailing arm type
with hydraulic shock absorber and coil spring mounted

PROCEDURE FOR CHECKING THE


BALL JOINT PLAY ON FRONT
SUSPENSION LOWER ARM BALL
JOINTS
It is recommended that the axial play on the ball joints
should be checked as per the procedure given below
before removal of the ball joints.
Note : Please check tightening torque of all nut &
bolts on the ball joint mounting bracket and ball pin
nut before checking the ball joint play.
The front lower arm ball joints play should be checked
at every 10,000 kms as per the procedure given below.
Procedure :
Fig. 29a
a) Apply the parking brakes and remove front wheel
by jacking up the car with the help of a floor jack
or by lifting it on a two pole hoist
b) Mount the dial gauge with magnetic stand on
the brake disc as shown in Fig. 29a
SUSPENSION
Important : Note that the Dial Indicator plunger axis
should be perpendicular to the ball joint bottom face
for the correct reading.
c) The tip of the dial gauge should be in contact
with the lower arm ball joint bottom plate. (With
preloading of about 1mm on the dial gauge).
d) Place another jack under the lower arm by gently
lifting up the lower arm. The jack is to be placed
under the lower arm as shown in Fig. 29b.
e) As the jack is lifted slowly spring in the ball joint
gets fully closed (solid) at a load of about 100
kg. and then the dial gauge needle will start
moving and indicate the play in the ball joint.
f) Keep on increasing the load by lifting up the lower
arm till the needle stops moving further. Note the
reading. This should not be more than 0.5 mm.
Do not further load the ball joint after the needle
movement stops.
g) If the reading found is in excess, replace ball
joint.

CALIPER OPERATION (Fig. 4)


Single Piston Floating Caliper
A single piston floating caliper type disc brake is
employed in this model. A cylinder and a piston are
used for this type (The cylinder is constructed as a
monoblock with the caliper). Fluid pressure generated
in the tandem master cylinder causes the pad (1) on
the piston side to press against the disc. At the same
time, the floating type caliper body is moved to the
right by the cylinder pressure, as shown in Figure 3,
which pulls pad (2) against the disc and hence applying
brakes.
The disc brake has no servo assistance as in drum
braking, and it is necessary to increase the working
pressure of the piston and pad. For this purpose, the
caliper cylinder has a large bore. A little change in
clearance between the disc and the pad causes large
influence on the brake pedal stroke. It is always PISTON SEAT
CYLINDER (RUBBER SEAL)
necessary to have the clearance adjusted to the
minimum. The clearance adjustment is done by means
of the piston (rubber) seal.
Clearance Correction
When fluid pressure is applied on the piston, the piston
moves forward. The rubber seal, which exerts
considerable pressure against the piston, is fixed into
a groove in the caliper, hence the shape of the rubber
seal is distorted at the I.D. as shown in Fig 3. When
pressure is withdrawn from the brake pedal and fluid PISTON
pressure is released from the piston, a restoring force HYDRAULIC PRESSURE
is generated by the seal and it pushes the piston back ‘OFF’
to its original position. As the pads wear the clearance
between the disc and the pads becomes larger, hence
the piston has to move a larger distance. The seal
then could change in shape further but, since the seal
PISTON SEAT
is fixed into the groove in the cylinder, the distortion is
(RUBBER
limited to the same amount as previously described. CYLINDER
SEAL)
The piston moves further to cover the distance of
clearance relative to the seal in the case. The piston
returns by the same distance and the rubber seal
recovers its shape as described above and thus the
clearance between the disc and pads are maintained
by adjustment automatically.
The caliper brake needs no adjustment.

Caution :
Do not polish the pads with sand paper or emery

deposited in pad and may damage the disc.
Whenever pads require correction, replace them with
new ones.
Always use genuine recommended pad for
replacement. Do not contaminate the pad surface
with grease or oil.

DISC INSPECTION : Fig. 24


The disc should be free from score marks. If scored,
this should be ground and refitted. But at no time
more than 0.25 mm should be ground per side.
If the total thickness of the disc after grinding is
found to be less than disc discard thickness of
18.00 mm, then the disc should be changed.
The disc thickness variation to be checked by
measuring the thickness of the rotor at four or more
points around the circumference of the rotor.
All measurements must be made at the same
distance from the edge of the rotor.
After fitment, the face runout of the disc should
be less than 0.10 mm.
During the measurement confirm that the dial
gauge probe be approx. 10 mm from the outer
edge of the brake rotor, perpendicular to the disc
and under slight preload.
Check front wheel bearing for looseness before
face runout measurement.
The control of the braking surface finish is
necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance. BRAKE

It will also help in extending pad life.


Note :
Measure the face runout of the disc and mark the
low runout point around the wheel mounting bolt,
which is nearest to the low runout point.
This is important, as this marked point has to be
matched with corresponding high point on the Fig. 24
hub.
This will ensure minimum runout of hub and disc
assembly together, this will in turn minimize disc
wobbling and uneven pad wear.
The other side of the Caliper can be serviced in the
same way.

To prevent damage to the brake drum due to over


adjustment, a mechanism is incorporated on the
automatic adjustment mechanism which is indicated
by increase in foot pedal travel and hand brake lever
movement, that maximum adjustment has been
reached and the lined shoes need replacement.
The leading and trailing shoes are connected at one
end by an abutment plate riveted to the backplate.
The other end of the shoes is connected by a twin
piston wheel cylinder, hand brake lever and a strut
assembly, which incorporates the automatic
adjustment mechanism. The hand brake lever
operates the trailing shoe whilst the leading shoe is
operated by a quadrant lever. Quadrant and the strut
are riveted and the quadrant is free to rotate.
A hooked spring keeps the quadrant lever in contact
with a knurled wheel, which is also riveted to the strut,
but the wheel is fixed and does not rotate.
When the foot pedal is operated, the brake shoes are
pushed on to the drum by the wheel cylinder piston.
As the shoe linings wear, the outward movement of
the shoes exceeds a predetermined amount and this
movement pulls the quadrant lever away from the
knurled wheel.
The quadrant moves on its pivot pin so that when the
brakes are released and shoes move back, the
quadrant has moved round on the knurled wheel to
reduce the clearance between the brake shoes and
drum to the desired minimum clearance. The
adjustment is repeated, whenever necessary
depending upon the lining wears.

the vacuum created in the engine inlet manifold in case
of petrol engine and Vacuum generated by vacuum
pump in case of diesel engine. The vacuum is applied
to both the sides of a diaphragm and by admitting
atmospheric pressure to one side of the diaphragm
the power is obtained.
The unit is connected to the brake pedal and the master
cylinder. The vaccum booster input push rod is
connected to brake pedal while the output push rod

WORKING PRINCIPLE
BRAKE OFF Fig. 54
The diaphragm is fully retracted and is held against
the rear shell by the diaphragm return spring. The
input rod assembly is also fully retracted by the brake
pedal return spring, as far as the stop key, or valve
retaining plate will allow. With the input rod in this
position, the vacuum port is open and there is vacuum
on both the sides of the diaphragm.
BRAKE APPLIED Fig. 55
When the brake pedal is depressed, the input rod assy
moves forward inside the diaphragm plate until the
control valve closes the vacuum port; at this juncture
vacuum is still present on both the sides of the Fig. 54
diaphragm. As the input rod continues to move forward,
the control plunger moves away from the control valve,
opening the atmospheric port, which is formed between
these two parts. Air enters the rear shell behind the
diaphragm and the effect of atmospheric pressure
assisted by the valve rod helps in pushing the
diaphragm plate forward and thus the output rod
actuates the Master Cylinder Plunger.
BRAKE HELD ON Fig. 56 BRAKE

When the brake pedal is held on, the diaphragm will


momentarily continue to move forward and so compress
the outer edges of the reaction disc. This movement
causes the centre of the disc to extrude, pressing
back the input rod and thus closing the atmospheric
port. Thus the output force is balanced against that of
the input force. Further movement of the brake pedal
either opens the vacuum port or the atmospheric port Fig. 55
depending on whether the brake pedal is released or
depressed.

BRAKE RELEASED Fig. 57


Immediately after the brake pedal is released, the
vacuum port is opened and the atmospheric pressure
in the rear chamber is extracted into the front chamber
and from there to the inlet manifold via the non-return
valve. The atmospheric port remains closed whilst
the input rod assy returns to its original position, as
shown. The diaphragm is then again 'suspended' in
vacuum until the brake pedal is depressed.
BOOSTER REMOVAL
Disconnect the vacuum hose from the booster.
Remove the booster input rod clevis pin from the brake
pedal and remove the booster mounting nut (2 Nos.)
from control mounting bracket.

Unscrew the booster mounting nuts from the firewall
end (2 Nos.) and remove the booster from the vehicle.

SERVICING
The parts available to service the unit are - a filter a
non-return valve kit and a service kit. Servicing of the
internal parts is not recommended and if a major fault
is apparent, a new complete guaranteed unit should
be fitted.
The air filter should be changed every 40000 kms.
or two years. If dusty conditions prevail, the filters
should be changed more frequently.
The output rod is retained internally and cannot be
extracted. If the rod or the domed screw on the rod
end is damaged the Supervac Unit must be replaced
complete. Fig. 58

No attempt should be made to disturb the domed


screw. This is correctly set at the factory and should
never be disturbed. 900
REPLACING THE FILTER Fig. 59
Pull back the dust cover and filter retainer. Hook out
the filters and cut to remove from the input rod.
Cut the new filter, press into the neck of the valve body
as shown and refit the filter retainer and dust cover.
If the dust cover is damaged fit a new one from Repair
Kit.

REPLACING THE NON RETURN VALVE


Before removing the non-return valve note the angle of
the same in relation to the front shell so that the new
valve can be fitted in the same position.
The non-return valve fitted is a push-in type valve. To
remove this valve insert a flat bladed screwdriver
between the rubber grommet and valve collar, lever
the valve from the grommet.
Then remove the grommet from the front shell and make
sure that even by mistake you do not drop the same
into the vacuum chamber.
Fit the new grommet.
Lubricate the ribs of the new non-return valve with castor
oil and push fully into the grommet. Fig. 60
INSTALLATION OF THE BOOSTER
Assemble the booster to the control-mounting bracket
through firewall panel.
Ensure that booster push rod stand out dimension is
115 + 0.5 mm. Fig. 61
Install the input rod pin (smear pin with molykote
grease) clevis to the brake pedal with the split pin.

CALIPER OPERATION (Fig. 4)


Single Piston Floating Caliper
A single piston floating caliper type disc brake is
employed in this model. A cylinder and a piston are
used for this type (The cylinder is constructed as a
monoblock with the caliper). Fluid pressure generated
in the tandem master cylinder causes the pad (1) on
the piston side to press against the disc. At the same
time, the floating type caliper body is moved to the
right by the cylinder pressure, as shown in Figure 3,
which pulls pad (2) against the disc and hence applying
brakes.
The disc brake has no servo assistance as in drum
braking, and it is necessary to increase the working
pressure of the piston and pad. For this purpose, the
caliper cylinder has a large bore. A little change in
clearance between the disc and the pad causes large
influence on the brake pedal stroke. It is always PISTON SEAT
CYLINDER (RUBBER SEAL)
necessary to have the clearance adjusted to the
minimum. The clearance adjustment is done by means
of the piston (rubber) seal.
Clearance Correction
When fluid pressure is applied on the piston, the piston
moves forward. The rubber seal, which exerts
considerable pressure against the piston, is fixed into
a groove in the caliper, hence the shape of the rubber
seal is distorted at the I.D. as shown in Fig 3. When
pressure is withdrawn from the brake pedal and fluid PISTON
pressure is released from the piston, a restoring force HYDRAULIC PRESSURE
is generated by the seal and it pushes the piston back ‘OFF’
to its original position. As the pads wear the clearance
between the disc and the pads becomes larger, hence
the piston has to move a larger distance. The seal
then could change in shape further but, since the seal
PISTON SEAT
is fixed into the groove in the cylinder, the distortion is
(RUBBER
limited to the same amount as previously described. CYLINDER
SEAL)
The piston moves further to cover the distance of
clearance relative to the seal in the case. The piston
returns by the same distance and the rubber seal
recovers its shape as described above and thus the
clearance between the disc and pads are maintained
by adjustment automatically.
The caliper brake needs no adjustment.

The disc should be free from score marks. If scored,
this should be ground and refitted. But at no time
more than 0.25 mm should be ground per side.
If the total thickness of the disc after grinding is
found to be less than disc discard thickness of
18.00 mm, then the disc should be changed.
The disc thickness variation to be checked by
measuring the thickness of the rotor at four or more
points around the circumference of the rotor.
All measurements must be made at the same
distance from the edge of the rotor.
After fitment, the face runout of the disc should
be less than 0.10 mm.
During the measurement confirm that the dial
gauge probe be approx. 10 mm from the outer
edge of the brake rotor, perpendicular to the disc
and under slight preload.
Check front wheel bearing for looseness before
face runout measurement.
The control of the braking surface finish is
necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance. BRAKE

It will also help in extending pad life.


Note :
Measure the face runout of the disc and mark the
low runout point around the wheel mounting bolt,
which is nearest to the low runout point.
This is important, as this marked point has to be
matched with corresponding high point on the Fig. 24
hub.
This will ensure minimum runout of hub and disc
assembly together, this will in turn minimize disc
wobbling and uneven pad wear.
The other side of the Caliper can be serviced in the
same way.

To prevent damage to the brake drum due to over


adjustment, a mechanism is incorporated on the
automatic adjustment mechanism which is indicated
by increase in foot pedal travel and hand brake lever
movement, that maximum adjustment has been
reached and the lined shoes need replacement.
The leading and trailing shoes are connected at one
end by an abutment plate riveted to the backplate.
The other end of the shoes is connected by a twin
piston wheel cylinder, hand brake lever and a strut
assembly, which incorporates the automatic
adjustment mechanism. The hand brake lever
operates the trailing shoe whilst the leading shoe is
operated by a quadrant lever. Quadrant and the strut
are riveted and the quadrant is free to rotate.
A hooked spring keeps the quadrant lever in contact
with a knurled wheel, which is also riveted to the strut,
but the wheel is fixed and does not rotate.
When the foot pedal is operated, the brake shoes are
pushed on to the drum by the wheel cylinder piston.
As the shoe linings wear, the outward movement of
the shoes exceeds a predetermined amount and this
movement pulls the quadrant lever away from the
knurled wheel.
The quadrant moves on its pivot pin so that when the
brakes are released and shoes move back, the
quadrant has moved round on the knurled wheel to
reduce the clearance between the brake shoes and
drum to the desired minimum clearance. The
adjustment is repeated, whenever necessary
depending upon the lining wears.

WORKING PRINCIPLE
BRAKE OFF Fig. 54
The diaphragm is fully retracted and is held against
the rear shell by the diaphragm return spring. The
input rod assembly is also fully retracted by the brake
pedal return spring, as far as the stop key, or valve
retaining plate will allow. With the input rod in this
position, the vacuum port is open and there is vacuum
on both the sides of the diaphragm.
BRAKE APPLIED Fig. 55
When the brake pedal is depressed, the input rod assy
moves forward inside the diaphragm plate until the
control valve closes the vacuum port; at this juncture
vacuum is still present on both the sides of the Fig. 54
diaphragm. As the input rod continues to move forward,
the control plunger moves away from the control valve,
opening the atmospheric port, which is formed between
these two parts. Air enters the rear shell behind the
diaphragm and the effect of atmospheric pressure
assisted by the valve rod helps in pushing the
diaphragm plate forward and thus the output rod
actuates the Master Cylinder Plunger.
BRAKE HELD ON Fig. 56 BRAKE

When the brake pedal is held on, the diaphragm will


momentarily continue to move forward and so compress
the outer edges of the reaction disc. This movement
causes the centre of the disc to extrude, pressing
back the input rod and thus closing the atmospheric
port. Thus the output force is balanced against that of
the input force. Further movement of the brake pedal
either opens the vacuum port or the atmospheric port Fig. 55
depending on whether the brake pedal is released or
depressed.

BRAKE RELEASED Fig. 57


Immediately after the brake pedal is released, the
vacuum port is opened and the atmospheric pressure
in the rear chamber is extracted into the front chamber
and from there to the inlet manifold via the non-return
valve. The atmospheric port remains closed whilst
the input rod assy returns to its original position, as
shown. The diaphragm is then again 'suspended' in
vacuum until the brake pedal is depressed.

ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM :

Anti lock Brake system (ABS) is a closed loop


system, which modulates the brake pressure in
response to the brake slip rate of the wheel so as to
prevent the controlled wheel or wheels from becoming
fully locked above a preset minimum speed.

During emergency braking situations at high speeds,


panic braking will be applied under conditions like
un-anticipated obstacle and mistakes committed by
other drivers and pedestrians or braking under more
critical driving conditions such as driving on wet and
slippery road surfaces like ice etc, the wheels tends
to lock which in turn will skid. This will lead to loss of
steerability and stability of the vehicle as it looses
traction.

HOW ABS WORKS : Fig. 2 and Fig. 3

When the brake pedal is depressed, hydraulic


pressure is developed in the Tandem Master Cylinder,
which is used to actuate the brake (two in front and
two in rear).

The brake pipes are connected to the brakes through


the ABS Hydraulic unit.They make two independent
circuits diagonally split.The primary circuit connects

Whenever ABS system recognizes incipient wheel


lock at one or more wheels, it ensures the stability of
wheel/ vehicle by modulating the brake pressure in 3
phases which are, (1) Pressure increase, (2)
Pressure hold & (3) Pressure decrease. The wheel
speed sensor sends alternating voltage signals to the
Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ECU calculates
the vehicle reference speed every 10 msec.

From this data the ECU calculates the % slip when


the wheels are braked. When the % slip is above the
permissible limit (varies with tire to road traction), the
ECU sends signal to the solenoid valves in the HU to
carry out pressure maintaining and reduction phase.
When % slip recovers within limits, pressure is
increased to achieve optimum stopping distance.

When one or more wheels are about to lock due to


rapid deceleration, the ABS comes into action. It
modulates (increases, holds or decreases) the brake
pressure to avoid wheel lock.

The ABS 5.3 controls all the 4 channels (both front


and rear) independently. The brake pressure required
to bring ABS into operation may vary depending upon
road surface and tire adhesion. A dry pavement
surface requires a higher brake force than a slippery
surface to engage ABS. ABS

The ABS comes into play when panic braking is


applied on the car during emergency. The driver feels
the effort of the ABS through the pulsating (up
and down movement) of the brake pedal and
audible noise in the brake system.

This is absolutely Normal. This should not be


interpreted as a fault in the brakes. On the
contrary it’s the indication that the ABS is
working.

This is an intentional warning to the driver that a wheel


or wheels are tending to lock up due to the limit of tire
to road adhesion.

In this situation it is important to keep the brake


pedal depressed fully so that the ABS can
regulate the brake application.

On No account pump the brake pedal.

sensor (DF6) has a stator pole with coil windings and


installed directly above the Tone Wheel. The Tone
Wheel is generally fitted on to the wheel hub. The
stator pole is linked to a permanent magnet, thus
inducing a magnetic field into the tone wheel. The
alternating teeth and gap that accompanies the wheel
rotation induces corresponding fluctuation in the
magnetic field through the stator pole.

This variation in magnetic field induces an alternating


current at the end of the winding. The frequency of the
current is proportional to the speed of the wheel.

The voltage is zero when the vehicle is stationary. The


minimum detectable rotation rate is decided by
factors like tooth geometry, gap, voltage rise rate and
the ECU sensitivity to incoming signals. The sensor
has to be installed on a stable mount to prevent
oscillation pattern from the brakes resulting in
distorting sensor signals. The wheel speed sensor also
has a coating of grease to prevent it from dirt and water
spray

module controls the solenoid valve relay and return

INTRODUCTION : The steering system installed on Indica LEi, LSi MPFI


is of rack and pinion type. When the steering wheel is
turned, the motion is transmitted to pinion through
steering shaft and joints. As the pinion teeth are in
mesh with rack, the motion gets transferred to rack
and changed to linear motion.
Thus the steering turning force is transmitted to
steering knuckles through tie rods which turn the
wheels.
This section gives details of mechanical steering
system which might be available in some vehicle
versions.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION Fig. 1


STEERING WHEEL
A rack and pinion steering gear is used on
Indica MPFI . Its design is simple, light and responsive.
It uses minimum linkage parts.

The rack and pinion steering gear takes the place of


centre link in a ball and nut type steering gear. The
gear housing containing a helical teeth rack is fastened
to the front of the body (firewall) in engine compartment.
The rack ends, under rubber bellows, are joined to the STEERING COLUMN
tie rods with ball joints at ends. A helical pinion on the
steering shaft directly meshes with the rack. A yoke
bearing (thrust pad) puts a preload on the rack directly
across from the pinion.

MECHANICAL STEERING

INTRODUCTION : The steering system installed on Indica MPFI is of


rack and pinion type. When the steering wheel is
turned, the motion is transmitted to pinion through
steering shaft and joints. As the pinion teeth are in
mesh with rack, the motion gets transferred to rack
and changed to linear motion.
Thus the steering turning force is transmitted to
steering knuckles through tie rods which turn the
wheels.
This section gives details of mechanical steering
system which might be available in some vehicle
versions.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION Fig. 1


STEERING WHEEL
A rack and pinion steering gear is used on
Indica MPFI Its design is simple, light and responsive.
It uses minimum linkage parts.

The rack and pinion steering gear takes the place of


centre link in a ball and nut type steering gear. The
gear housing containing a helical teeth rack is fastened
to the front of the body (firewall) in engine compartment.
The rack ends, under rubber bellows, are joined to the STEERING COLUMN
tie rods with ball joints at ends. A helical pinion on the
steering shaft directly meshes with the rack. A yoke
bearing (thrust pad) puts a preload on the rack directly
across from the pinion.

INTRODUCTION : Power steering fitted on Indica LEi & LSi MPFI is for
lighter steering effort and easy manoeuvrability.

The system consists of power steering gearbox,


hydraulic pump and hydraulic tank suitably mounted
and connected by piping.

Pump drive is through poly ‘V’ belt from engine.

Power assistance is available during normal operating


conditions. In case of any failure in hydraulic system,
the steering can still be operated mechanically with
increased steering effort for bringing the car to an
authorised service outlet.

utilising the hydraulic pressure generated by the
hydraulic pump which is driven by the engine. POWER STEERING PUMP

The power steering offers the following advantages :- Pump is driven by engine 5PK poly ‘V’ belt.

• Reduces steering effort and driver fatigue The Power Steering Pump provides the hydraulic
assistance for the Power Steering Gear to operate.
• Provides precise steering control.

• Absorbs steering shocks, hydraulically preventing


them from being transmitted to the steering
wheel.
• Provides absolute control and greater safety,
quickly & effortlessly in demanding emergencies
like sudden tyre failures or car pull due to
malfunctioning brakes.

This resistance offered by the steered wheels on the
Pinion, leads to a definite twist on the Torsion bar
depending on the input torque level.
The Torsion bar twist disturbs the neutral position of

The disturbed Rotary Control Valve directs the oil flow
from the pump to the appropriate side of the cylinder.

The Piston Rack pressurised by the oil, moves in the
required direction overcoming the resistance offered
by the steered wheels and produces the steering
action.
The resistance in the rotation direction of Pinion is
relieved by movement of Piston Rack by hydraulic force

to its neutral position.

PROCEDURE FOR FILLING AND


BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Apply parking brake and set the Gear shift lever in
neutral.

Raise the front wheel clear off the ground and support
with safety stand.

Check for proper connection and tightness of end


fittings/hose clips in hydraulic lines.

Fill the reservoir nearly full with recommended Power


Steering fluid.

Crank the engine for 10 seconds if possible without


allowing it to start. If the engine does start, shut off
immediately. Check and refill Reservoir. Repeat atleast
3 times, each time checking and refilling till the level
in the reservoir is stabilised.

CAUTION :
Do not allow the oil to run down significantly or run out
of the reservoir. This may induce air into the system.

Start the engine and check for any leakage in the


system and if noticed, take corrective action.

Turn the steering wheel so that the lock stops are


lightly contacted at each lock, 3 or 4 times till oil in
the reservoir is free from any bubbles or foaming.

If bubbles or foaming is present, it indicates that air is


getting sucked into the system. Check the power
steering lines fittings/hose clips and correct, if
necessary.

If the system is bled properly there should not be any


appreciable change in oil level, when the engine is
started or stopped repeatedly.

Finally check and top up (if required) the fluid to the


specified level in the Reservoir.

CAUTION :
Don’t load the system until it is bled properly. Severe
damages could occur otherwise.

Always use recommended oil from closed containers.


Any dirty oil in the system will result in damage to
Pump/Gear.

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE :


GENERAL
• Power Steering System trouble shooting requires correct approach and analysis.

• First key to diagnose a steering problem is to understand exactly what the problems is

• Save a lot of time and work by talking to the customer/driver, understand and verify the problem reported.

• Walk around the vehicle, looking for anything that may be an obvious cause of the problem.

• Check the following


1. Are tyre sizes, tyre variety and air pressure correct to original specification ?
2. Is the steering wheel an original equipment ?
3. Has the suspension been modified in any way that would affect steering?
4. Is the steering fluid in reservoir filled to proper level ?
5. Is the power steering pump belt properly adjusted ?
6. Is the engine idle speed correct and steady ?
7. Has the steering aggregates been disturbed off its original settings ?
8. Any record of accident/heavy impact load that would affect steering ?
The above preliminary checks help to analyse the problem and guide for corrective action, as required.
Most steering problems can be charted out to common complaints as given below :

POWER STEERING

INTRODUCTION : Power steering fitted on Indica LX & LXi MPFI is for


lighter steering effort and easy manoeuvrability.

The system consists of power steering gearbox,


hydraulic pump and hydraulic tank suitably mounted
and connected by piping.

Pump drive is through poly ‘V’ belt from engine.

Power assistance is available during normal operating


conditions. In case of any failure in hydraulic system,
the steering can still be operated mechanically with
increased steering effort for bringing the car to an
authorised service outlet.

The power steering offers the following advantages :- Pump is driven by engine 5PK poly ‘V’ belt.

• Reduces steering effort and driver fatigue The Power Steering Pump provides the hydraulic
assistance for the Power Steering Gear to operate.
• Provides precise steering control.

• Absorbs steering shocks, hydraulically preventing


them from being transmitted to the steering

This resistance offered by the steered wheels on the
Pinion, leads to a definite twist on the Torsion bar
depending on the input torque level.
The Torsion bar twist disturbs the neutral position of
the Rotary Control Valve (input shaft and valve sleeve).
The disturbed Rotary Control Valve directs the oil flow
from the pump to the appropriate side of the cylinder.
POWER
STEERING
The Piston Rack pressurised by the oil, moves in the
required direction overcoming the resistance offered
by the steered wheels and produces the steering
action.
The resistance in the rotation direction of Pinion is
relieved by movement of Piston Rack by hydraulic force
and the reaction of Torsion bar returns the rotary valve
to its neutral position.

PROCEDURE FOR FILLING AND


BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Apply parking brake and set the Gear shift lever in
neutral.

Raise the front wheel clear off the ground and support
with safety stand.

Check for proper connection and tightness of end


fittings/hose clips in hydraulic lines.

Fill the reservoir nearly full with recommended Power


Steering fluid.

Crank the engine for 10 seconds if possible without


allowing it to start. If the engine does start, shut off
immediately. Check and refill Reservoir. Repeat atleast
3 times, each time checking and refilling till the level
in the reservoir is stabilised.

CAUTION :
Do not allow the oil to run down significantly or run out
of the reservoir. This may induce air into the system.

Start the engine and check for any leakage in the


system and if noticed, take corrective action.

Turn the steering wheel so that the lock stops are


lightly contacted at each lock, 3 or 4 times till oil in
the reservoir is free from any bubbles or foaming.

If bubbles or foaming is present, it indicates that air is


getting sucked into the system. Check the power
steering lines fittings/hose clips and correct, if
necessary.

If the system is bled properly there should not be any


appreciable change in oil level, when the engine is
started or stopped repeatedly.

Finally check and top up (if required) the fluid to the


specified level in the Reservoir.

CAUTION :
Don’t load the system until it is bled properly. Severe
damages could occur otherwise.

Always use recommended oil from closed containers.


Any dirty oil in the system will result in damage to
Pump/Gear.

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE :


GENERAL
• Power Steering System trouble shooting requires correct approach and analysis.

• First key to diagnose a steering problem is to understand exactly what the problems is

• Save a lot of time and work by talking to the customer/driver, understand and verify the problem reported.

• Walk around the vehicle, looking for anything that may be an obvious cause of the problem.

• Check the following


1. Are tyre sizes, tyre variety and air pressure correct to original specification ?
2. Is the steering wheel an original equipment ?
3. Has the suspension been modified in any way that would affect steering?
4. Is the steering fluid in reservoir filled to proper level ?
5. Is the power steering pump belt properly adjusted ?
6. Is the engine idle speed correct and steady ?
7. Has the steering aggregates been disturbed off its original settings ?
8. Any record of accident/heavy impact load that would affect steering ?
The above preliminary checks help to analyse the problem and guide for corrective action, as required.
Most steering problems can be charted out to common complaints as given below :

Matched tyres and wheels :(Provisional) Paint Paint

Tyres and wheels are match mounted at the


assembly plant. This means that the radially stiffest
part of the tyre or “high spot” marked in RED on tyre
is matched to the smallest radius or “low spot” of the
steel wheel rim. In case of alloy rims valve is to be
matched with YELLOW spot on the tyre. The
YELLOW spot is an indication of low point of static
imbalance of tyres. This is done to provide the
smoothest possible ride. The colour spots on the tyres
are originally marked by paint dot on the out board
sidewall. This paint dot will eventually washoff the tyre.
The “low spot” of the wheel is originally marked by
paint dot on the wheel rim. If properly assembled, the
wheel rims’ paint dot should be aligned with the tyres’ Fig 2
paint dot as shown in the fig2. Whenever a tyre is
dismounted from its wheel it should be remounted so Valve caps should be on the valves to keep dust and

Dynamic balance, as shown in Fig 5. is the equal


distribution of weight of each side of the wheel center

Each tyre should be inspected for any damage, then

Off-Vehicle Balancing :

Most electronic off vehicle balancers are more


accurate than the on-vehicle spin balancers. They are
easy to use and give a dynamic (two plane) balance.
Although they do not correct for drum or disc

overcome by their accuracy.

thick coated steel sheet.The four doors and bonnet consist
of inner and outer panels to ensure rigidity.The body shell
design particularly ensures maximum safety of the
occupants during full frontal as well as offset impacts. Side
impact bars have been incorporated in the doors. There
are specially formed impact initiators.They ensure that in
the event of a collision the collapse begins at
predetermined locations and progresses in a predicted
manner. This all goes to make the car totally safe.

E. PAINT CARE
CAUSE FOR CONCERN :
The Tata Indica is painted using contemporary and
state of the art technology to safeguard the body shell
from corrosion. However certain precautions need to
be taken to ensure better care of paint finish and long
term corrosion protection of Indica.
The common causes of corrosion of car are :
• Accumulation of dirt and moisture in hard to reach
areas under the vehicle.
• Paint or underbody chip off due to minor accidents
or due to the impact of stones or gravel against
the painted surface.

• The roads have a presence of substances which


will accelerate the rate of corrosion such as road
salt, industrial fallout, saline atmosphere near
coastal areas.
• The car is subjected to dampness on certain parts
of the body for a long duration of time.
FOLLOWING GUIDELINES WILL HELP TO
PROTECT INDICA FROM CORROSION
PROPER CLEANING :
In order to protect Indica from corrosion it is
recommended to wash Indica thoroughly and
frequently in case :
BODY
• There is heavy accumulation of dirt and mud
especially on the underbody.
• It is driven in areas having high atmospheric
pollution due to smoke, soot, dust, iron dust and
other chemical pollutants.
• It is driven in coastal areas.
In addition to regularly washing, the following

BODY

• All drain holes on doors and tailgate etc. must


be clear so that there is no water entrapment.
Fig 81
• Any mud on wheel arches and underbody must
be removed thoroughly so that these parts are
not subjected to dampness that might be present
in this mud.
• Make use of mud-flaps to protect the painted
surface and wheel-arch coating from the abrasive
action of mud and impacting stones.
PERIODIC INSPECTION :
Regularly inspect for any damage in the paint film such
as deep scratches and immediately get them repaired,
as these defects tend to accelerate corrosion. Fig 80
PROPER PARKING :
Always park the vehicle in shade to protect it from
harsh sunlight or in a well-ventilated garage so that
there is no dampness on any part of the vehicle.
WASHING INDICA
Follow these tips while washing Indica.
HAND WASH :
• Always wash in shade and when the surface is
at room temperature.
• Wash with mild car wash soap like "Car
Shampoo" and use a soft 100% cotton cloth to
avoid scratches. Please take help of your dealer
to buy the right products.
Fig 81
• Please be sure to remove the wristwatch and
wear soft gloves to avoid scratches due to finger
rings or nails.
• To remove stubborn stains and contaminants like
tar, use turpentine or cleaners like "Stain
Remover" which is safe for painted surfaces.
Again your dealer can help you in selecting the
right product.
• Avoid substances like petrol, diesel, kerosene,
benzene or other solvents that cause damage to
paint.
• Dry the vehicle thoroughly to prevent any damp
spots.

These machines can clean the car thoroughly. However
check for following :-
• Please feel the surface of the brushes and ensure
that the brushes on the automatic car wash are
in proper condition as damaged or worn bristles
may develop scratches on the paint finish.
• Please enquire and verify that the water used in
the automatic car wash undergoes proper
filtration as water which is reused without filtration
contains dirt and contaminants, which may lead
to scratches and damage.

"TO DO" LIST FOR INDICA PAINT FINISH CARE IN
RAINY SEASON
CAR BODY :
The exterior of the car is the only line of defence
between the interior and critical components. Not only
that, but most modern cars are monocoque i.e. the
bodies are themselves the load bearing structures.
So making sure they weather the rainy season is not
only an aesthetic reason, it's a pretty good technical
reason too.
The main cause of body and underbody deterioration
is corrosion. Modern cars come with galvanized metal,
rust proofing, etc. but with our fierce monsoons,
additional care needs to be taken. Following
precautions must be taken :
• Do not allow dirt to accumulate on any painted
surface. Water trickles off painted surfaces but
dirt settles on the damp areas and eventually
eats into the paint work. Most corrosion beings
on the inside, so your Indica may need more
than a wash down.
• Wheel-arch's, doorsills and doors are most
susceptible to corrosion and hence special care
needs to be taken to keep these areas clean.
• Do not use household detergents to wash paint
work as they are strong and may affect the metal
and promote corrosion.

CARE OF THE UNDERBODY: Fig. 85


The underbody of the car houses many critical
components and connections and hence special care
has to be taken to keep it corrosion free. Following
are some useful tips to keep underbody corrosion free.
• Inspect Indica before and after the rainy season
for any possible signs of corrosion.
• Corrosion can be arrested using a rust-proofing
treatment like waxing e.g. Dinitrol.
• The exhaust system on the underbody is most
susceptible to corrosion. It is recommended to
re-coat it with aluminium paint in case the original
coating is damaged or weathered away.
Fig 85
• Periodically check the car for any scrapes on
the underbody caused due to speed-breakers or
due to stones.
Caring for the car's paint finish is a good investment
as it not only helps to prevent the rusting of sheet
metal parts but also enhances the value of the car
following the above guidelines will help you to maintain
the glossy and wet look appearance of the car.

AIR CONDITIONING

INTRODUCTION : Air conditioning is the regulation of air flow, temperature


and humidity in the car for making up an environment
comfortable to the occupants.
The comfort of the environment in the car will not
necessarily be the same as that in buildings and will be
defined in terms of temperature, humidity and air flow.
But this degree of comfort will vary with the outside
conditions (radiation, sunlight, etc.)
For maintaining a comfortable environment (climate) in
the car cabin, two separate temperature regulated
circuits and the corresponding controlling elements are
required i.e. refrigeration and heating circuits.
Tata Indica LSi, LX, LXi versions are fitted with HVAC system.
This system provides for full heating, ventilation and cooling
of the car interior.The controls on the dash boards can be
adjusted to mix heating and cooling to get the desired
effect inside the car. There is a provision for demisting of
windshield and front door glasses if required.
Tata Indica LEi is fitted with Heating and Demisting (HD)
system,which provides full heating. There is a provision
for demisting of windshield and front door glasses if
required.

MAIN PARTS OF A. C. SYSTEM 7. ANTI FREEZE SWITCH : It is a temperature sensing


device, which protects the A. C. systems from
1. COMPRESSOR : It is the heart of A. C. system where,
damage. It switches off the compressor when
low temperature, low pressure vapour refrigerant is
condensed water tends to form ice on the fins of
compressed and converted to high temperature high
evaporator. Thus it maintains the evaporator
pressure gas.
temperature within a specified range.
2. CONDENSER : It is the place where heat dissipation
takes place. Hot compressed gas enters the
condenser and is cooled off and converted into high
pressure liquid at the condenser outlet.
3. RECIEVER DRIER : It serves as a reservoir for excess
refrigerant where it removes any traces of moisture
and filters out dirt in the system.
4. TRINARY PRESSURE SWITCH : It is used to monitor
& or limit pressure conditions in a closed refrigerant
cycle.
High Low Pressure Settings : If the system
pressure reaches impermissible levels i. e. if the
pressure is less than 2 + 0.2 kg/cm 2 or if the
pressure is higher than 32 + 2 kg/cm2 then the
compressor is switched off. This avoids its
consequential damage.
Medium Pressure Settings : Due to these
pressure settings, both the condenser fan and
radiator fan start immediately after the A. C. is
switched ON. Both the fans run at slow speed until
the system pressure exceeds 20.5 kg / cm 2
Above this pressure, both the fans run at full
speed. When the system pressure drops below
15.5 kg / cm 2, both the fans will run at slow
speed.
5. EXPANSION VALVE :
It senses the pressure of the refrigerant coming
into the evaporator as well as the temperature of
the refrigerant into the evaporator. By sensing the
temperature and the pressure of the gas leaving the
evaporator, the expansion valve prevents the
evaporator from being flooded, and thereby
returning liquid refrigerant to the compressor.
6. EVAPORATOR : It serves as heat absorption unit.
Here it removes heat from inside the vehicle & AIR
CONDITIONING
dehumidifies it. The refrigerant enters the
bottom of evaporator as a low pressure liquid.
The warm air passing through evaporator fins
causes the refrigerant to boil, it can absorb large
amounts of heat. The heat is then carried off with
the refrigerant to the outside of vehicle.

A magnetic clutch consists of a stator, rotor with pulley,
and pressure plate to engage the drive pulley and
compressor magnetically.
The stator is fixed on the compressor housing, and the Fig. 3
pressure plate is attached to the compressor shaft.
Two ball bearings are used between the inner surface of STATOR
the rotor and the front housing of the compressor. BALL BEARING
PRESSURE PLATE
Operation : SNAP RING

Whenever the engine is operating, the pulley is rotating


since it is connected to the crankshaft by a belt, but the SNAP RING
compressor does not operate until the clutch is energized.
When the air conditioning system is on, the amplifier
supplies current to the stator coil. The electromagnet
attracts the pressure plate and pulls the plate against the
friction facings on the pulley. The friction between the
facing and plate causes the clutch assembly to rotate as a
unit, and drive the compressor.

INTRODUCTION : The electrical system of Indica MPFI incorporates the


details and repair instructions for a number of electrical
aggregates and special accessories apart from the
standard ones. These include a variety of telltale lamps
and audio warning signals operated by various
electronic control units.
Most of the electrical loads are supplied through
relays.
Details of wiring harnesses with their routing and
schematic electrical circuits of different systems are
included. These are only for guidance during
troubleshooting. However, due to continuous
improvements on the product, the actual wiring layout,
locations of components and connectors, the wire
colour codes etc. are likely to be different on the car;
which would be informed to you from time to time.

25. SERVICE DETAILS FOR FRONT WIPER MOTOR :


1) GENERAL DESCRIPTION :

Wind Shield Wiper Motor Model 5SW60B series are of units designed to operate a link type Wiper system
to be used on Cars / Utility vehicles.

The Wiper Motor is a self switching two pole design having permanent magnet field system and provided with
a gear box, housing a final gear. The power developed by the motor is transmitted by worm teeth, provided on
the Armature shaft, through the final gear system to the rotary link. The rotary motion of the rotary link is
converted to reciprocating linear motion (to and fro motion) of the connecting rods which in turn operates the
wiping blades. The contacts in the cover plate ensure regenerative breaking to the Armature on completion
of the wiping cycle when the switch turned ‘OFF’ and ensures consistent parking position of the Wiper arms
and blades. The arms resting position is pre-set to suit the installation requirements.

28. SERVICE DETAILS FOR STARTER MOTOR :


1) GENERAL DESCRIPTION :
The SM82 pre-engaged Starter is a 4-pole, 4-brush, series and parallel wound field, direct - drive
machine of 82 mm frame size. This light-weight Starter is designed for use on petrol engines upto 1800
C.C. (4 cylinder) and has a solenoid actuated roller clutch drive. On closing the Starter switch on the
panel, the solenoid gets energised, thereby, pulling the plunger towards the core. An actuating plastic
lever has one of its ends connected to the plunger and the other to the drive assembly. The pinion is
thus thrown into mesh with the flywheel ring gear when the solenoid plunger moves in. The plunger, at
the end of its travel, closes a pair of contacts which connect the Starter directly to the battery. As
soon as the engine fires, the plunger is brought back to its original position by the plunger return
spring placed over it. This disengages the drive from the ring gear.

2) PRECAUTIONS :
SOLENOID CHECK :
The following points must be adhered to when
starting the engine :- To check the solenoid switch connect a bulb in
series with the main terminal contact, energise
• Ensure that all electrical connections the winding if the bulb glows solenoid switch is
to the Starter are in a good condition. OK.
• Turn the Starter switch and release
as soon as engine fires.
• If the engine does not fire, allow it
to rest before operating the switch
again.
• If the engine does not start, ascertain
the cause and do not drain the
battery by keeping on cranking the
engine.
• Do not operate the Starter when the
engine is running, otherwise serious
damage could occur both to the
Starter pinion and the flywheel ring
gear teeth.
• Do not operate the Starter with a low
charged battery.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE :
• Ensure that the starter motor
mounting bolts (to the engine) are securely
fastened.
• Check that the electrical
connections are clean and tight.
• Cables should be examined for
fractures, particularly where the
strands enter the teminal lugs.
• Inspect fixing brackets for any
cracks.

2) Read Sensor Information
3) Read Manufacturing / Repair Date
Air Bag ECU is used for controlling firing of air-bags 4) Read ECU Status
for passenger safety on a vehicle in event of a crash. 5) Read DTCs i.e. Error Codes
6) Clear DTCs
This air bag module has a provision for sensing the 7) Read Vehicle Identification
front impacts. The system includes the possibilities 8) Write Vehicle Identification No
to handle front air bags (driver and passenger) and 9) Write Manufacturing / Repair Date
seat pretensioners for driver and passenger. 10) Write Ignition Data
11) Set Diagnostic mode
The Micro-controller inside the ECU , evaluates
continuously the signal from the all the sensor. Based
on the analog signal the crash algorithm will decide
whether to fire the air bag system . During the ignition
(start up) of the vehicle ,the system will make number
of self tests and the functionality will be indicated by
the warning lamp which is placed in the instrument
cluster as per the Air Bag manufacturer ’s
requirements.
The ECU has a standard interface based on Key Word
2000 Protocol for Diagnostics The interface allows
checking Electrical connections , resetting errors and
reading the ECU data etc. TATA MOTORS has
developed a diagnostic unit which handles these
functions and provides a user friendly interface based
on laptop PC.

A. SALIENT FEATURES

TROUBLE SHOOTING PROCEDURE :


1. Short the terminals of the connector using suitable
connector and OBSERVE the following :
2. Turn the ignition ‘ON’
a. If the ‘CHECK ENGINE’ lamp on the dash board
blinks cyclically at every 0.5 secs, Then there is
‘NO TROUBLE’ with the engine sensors.
b. Otherwise the lamp blinking frequency is
correlated to a trouble code and corresponding
sensor/actuator is indicated to be faulty.

E. BLINK CODE TABLE :


Read memory switch mode connector in following
shorted condition.

Item Code
Water temperature Sensor 31
Pressure Sensor 33
ISC Valve 34
Air Temperature Sensor 36
Throttle Sensor 41
O2 Sensor 42
Vehicle Speed Sensor 43

For Example :
If the “Check Engine” lamp gives 3 slow blinks (of 1.2 Secs
each) representing the first digit of the failcode viz.,”3"
followed by 1 fast blink (of 0.16 Secs each) representing
the second digit of the failcode viz.,”1" in a cyclic fashion,
thus flashing the code “3 1” indicating that the water Temp
Sensor is faulty (from the table below).
If there are two or more sensors faulty, then the blink
codes are repeated cyclically. For example, if the water
temperature sensor and lambda sensor are faulty then
the blinking codes will be repeated like
..31….42….31….42….
N OTE:
At the end of each diagnosis and rectification of the fault,
‘HISTORY CODE’ is to be erased by opting‘CLEAR MEMORY’
option in HDM 2000 or by removing the battery supply for
atleast 3 minutes.
