FUSES

A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses. This vehicle has 2 fuse panels, one located in the driver’s side panel bolster, and another is in the engine compartment. If any of your vehicle’s lights, accessories, or controls do not work, check the appropriate circuit fuse. If a fuse has blown, the element inside the fuse will be melted. If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel. Before replacing a blown fuse, disconnect the negative battery cable. 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 K900 Kia dealer. Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type for lower amperage rating, cartridge type, and fusible link for higher amperage ratings.

WARNING

• Fuse replacement
  • Never replace a fuse with anything but another fuse of the same rating.
  • A higher capacity fuse could cause damage and possibly a fire.
  • Never install a wire or aluminium foil instead of the proper fuse – even as a temporary repair. It may cause extensive wiring damage and a possible fire.

Do not arbitrarily modify or add-on the electric wiring of the vehicle.

CAUTION
Do not use a screwdriver or any other metal object to remove fuses because it may cause a short circuit and damage the system.

NOTICE
The actual fuse/relay panel label may differ depending on equipment/ options.

CAUTION

• When replacing a blown fuse or relay, make sure the new fuse or relay fits tightly into the clips. Failure to tightly install the fuse or relay may cause damage to the wiring and electric systems.
• Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts. The fuses, relays and terminals may be not be fastened correctly which may cause vehicle damage.

CAUTION
Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays into fuse/relay terminals such as a driver or wiring. It may cause contact failure and system malfunction.

WARNING

• Electrical Fire
  Always ensure replacement fuses and relays are securely fastened when installed. Failure to do so can result in a vehicle fire.

Instrument panel fuse replacement

1. Turn the Engine Start/Stop button and all other switches off.
2. Lift the end of strip (1) up.
3. Press the fastener head with a screwdriver and then pull the fastener out.
4. Lift the rear portion of small service cover (2) up and then remove the service cover.
   1. (A) : for assemble
   2. (B) : for remove
5. Press the fastener head with a screwdriver and then pull the fastener out from main service cover (3).
6. Pull the main service cover over 7mm (0.28 in) to toward the front of the vehicle.
7. Lift the main service cover up and then remove the main service cover. Be careful not to damage the holder under the main service cover.
8. Open the fuse panel cover.
9. Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the fuse puller provided in the engine compartment fuse panel.
10. Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
11. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.

If it fits loosely, consult an authorized K900 Kia dealer. 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 headlights or other electrical components do not work and the fuses are OK, check the fuse panel in the engine compartment. If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.

Fuse switch
Always put the transportation fuse switch at the ON position. If you move the switch to the OFF position, some items such as the audio and digital clock must be reset and the smart key may not work properly.

CAUTION

• Always place the transportation fuse switch in the ON position while driving the vehicle.
• Do not move the transportation fuse switch repeatedly as this may cause damage to the fuse switch.

NOTICE
If you need to park your vehicle for prolonged periods more than 1 month, move the transportation fuse switch to the OFF position to prevent the battery being discharged.

Engine compartment fuse replacement

1. Turn the Engine Start/Stop button and all other switches off.
2. Remove the fuse panel cover by pressing the tab and pulling up. When the blade-type fuse is disconnected, remove it by using the clip designed for changing fuses located in the engine room fuse box. Upon removal, securely insert reserve fuse of equal quantity.
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 authorized K900 Kia dealer.

CAUTION

• Fuse Panel Cover
  After checking the fuse panel in the engine compartment, securely install the fuse panel cover. If not, electrical failures may occur from water contact.

Main fuse
If the main fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:

1. Remove the fuse panel cover on the right side in the engine compartment.
2. Remove the nuts shown in the picture above.
3. Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
4. Reinstall in the reverse order of removal.
   

✽ NOTICE
If the main fuse is blown, consult an authorized K900 Kia dealer.

CAUTION
Visually inspect the battery cap to ensure it is securely closed. If the battery cap is not securely closed, moisture may enter the system and damage the electrical components.

Multi fuse
If the multi fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:

1. Disassemble the negative cable of battery.
2. Remove the nuts shown in the picture above.
3. Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
4. Reinstall in the reverse order of removal.

✽ NOTICE
If the multi fuse is blown, consult an authorized K900 Kia dealer.

How to replace the 2016 Kia K900 Fuse

The process of replacing a fuse in your 2016 Kia K900 is relatively straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Materials Needed:

1. New fuse (ensure it has the same amperage as the one you are replacing)
2. Fuse puller or needle-nose pliers

Instructions:

1. Locate the Fuse Box:

   • The fuse box in your Kia K900 is usually located in the interior of the vehicle, often under the dashboard on the driver’s side. Additionally, there may be a fuse box in the engine compartment. 

2. Turn Off the Ignition:

   • Ensure that the ignition is turned off before attempting to replace a fuse to avoid electrical hazards.

3. Use a Fuse Puller or Pliers:

   • If your fuse box comes with a fuse puller, use it to grasp and pull out the faulty fuse. If you don’t have a fuse puller, you can use needle-nose pliers to carefully grip and remove the fuse.

4. Inspect the Fuse:

   • Examine the removed fuse. If the metal strip inside is broken or the fuse appears discoloured, it is likely blown and needs replacement.

5. Insert the New Fuse:

   • Take a new fuse with the same amperage rating and push it into the slot where the old fuse was. Ensure it is securely seated.

6. Secure the Fuse Box Cover:

   • If you removed a cover from the fuse box to access the fuses, reattach it securely.

7. Test the Electrical Component:

   • Turn on the ignition and test the electrical component associated with the fuse you replaced to ensure it is functioning correctly.

Tips:

• Always use a fuse with the same amperage rating as the one you are replacing. Using a fuse with a different rating can lead to electrical issues or damage.
• Be cautious when handling fuses and electrical components to avoid injury or damage to your vehicle.
