Replacing main fuse (multi fuse)

Operation

  1. Turn off the vehicle.

  2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

  3. Remove the nuts.

  4. Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.

  5. Reinstall in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION

Visually inspect the battery cap for secure closing. If the battery cap is not securely latched, the electrical system may be damaged to due influx of moisture into the system.

NOTE

  • The electronic system may not function correctly even when the motor room and internal fuse box's individual fuses are not disconnected. In such case 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, visit a professional workshop. Kia recommends to visit the nearest authorized Kia dealer/service partner.

  • If the multi fuse is blown, consult a professional workshop. Kia recommends to consult an authorized Kia dealer/service partner.
