僅 Engine Compartment Fuse Replacement - Kia Sorento 2023 Owner's Manual

Maintenance
If you do not have a spare, use a fuse of
the same rating from a circuit you may
not need for operating the vehicle, such
as the cigarette lighter fuse.
If the headlamps or taillamps, stoplights,
courtesy lamp, day time running lights
(DRL) do not work and the fuses are OK,
consult an authorized Kia dealer.

3. Check the removed fuse; replace it if
it is blown. To remove or insert the
fuse, use the fuse puller in the engine
compartment fuse panel.
4. Push in a new fuse of the same rating,
and make sure it fits tightly in the
clips. If it fits loosely, consult an autho-
rized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Always securely install the fuse panel
cover in the engine compartment to pro-
tect against electrical failure which may
occur from water contact. Listen for the
8 46
audible clicking sound to ensure fuse
panel cover is securely fastened.
NOTICE
If the main (multi) fuse is blown, have
the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia
dealer.
NOTICE
The electronic system may not function
correctly even when the engine com-
partment and internal fuse box's individ-
ual fuses are not disconnected. In such
cases, the cause of the problem may be
disconnection of the main fuse (BFT
type), which is located inside the positive
battery terminal (+) cap. Since the main
fuse is designed more intricately than
other parts, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized Kia dealer.
After checking the fuse panel in the
engine compartment, securely install the
fuse panel cover through the audible
clicking sound. If not, electrical failures
may occur from water contact.
