Fuses




* Left: Normal, Right: Blown
* The actual fuse/relay panel label may differ.
Before replacing a blown fuse, disconnect the negative battery cable.
If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver's side fuse panel.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of the same rating.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult an authorized Kia dealer.

-
A higher rated capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
-
Never install wire or aluminum foil instead of the proper fuse even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.
-
Do not modify or add electric wiring of the vehicle.

-
When replacing a blown fuse or relay with a new one, make sure the new fuse or relay fits tightly into the clips. Incomplete fastening of the fuse or relay may cause wiring and electric system damage and a possible fire.
-
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts. The fuses, relays and terminals may be fastened incompletely, and may cause a possible fire. If fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts are blown, consult an authorized Kia dealer.
-
Do not plug in screwdrivers or aftermarket wiring into the terminal designed for fuse and relays only. The electrical system and wiring of the vehicle interior may be damaged or burned due to contact failure.
-
If you directly connect a wire on the taillight or replace the bulb which is over the regulated capacity to install trailers etc., the inner junction box can burn.
-
Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses. It may cause a short circuit and damage the system.

When replacing a fuse, press the EV button to the OFF position, turn off switches of all electrical devices and remove the battery (-) terminal.
