3. Remove the suspect fuse using the fuse puller provided in the main fuse box in the engine compartment.

4. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown. Spare fuses are provided in the fuse panel of the instrument panel (or in the engine compartment fuse panel).

5. Insert a new fuse of the same rating and make sure it is fully seated in the clips.

If the fuse does not fit securely, have it inspected at a professional workshop. Kia recommends consulting an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.

If you do not have a spare fuse, use a fuse of the same rating from a circuit that is not needed for vehicle operation, such as the cigar lighter fuse.

If the headlights or tail lights, stop lights, interior lights, or daytime running lights (D.R.L) do not work and the fuses are good, check the fuse panel in the engine compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.
