Fuses Guide
A vehicle’s electrical system is protected from electrical overload damage by fuses.
Blade type
Cartridge type
Multi fuse
BFT
* Left side: Normal, Right side:
Blown
This vehicle has 2 (or 3) fuse panels, one located in the driver’s side panel bolster, the other in the engine compartment near the battery.
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 melt.
If the electrical system does not work, first check the driver’s side fuse panel.
If the replacement fuse blows, this indicates an electrical problem. Avoid using the system involved and immediately consult an authorized Kia dealer.
Three kinds of fuses are used: blade type for lower amperage ratings, cartridge type, and multi fuse 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 aluminum 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 electric wiring to the vehicle.
NOTICE
- When replacing a fuse, Turn the ENGINE START/STOP button to the OFF position and turn off switches of all electrical devices then remove the battery (-) terminal.
- The actual fuse/relay panel label may differ from the equipped items.
WARNING
Electrical Fire
Always ensure replacement fuses and relays are securely fastened when installed. Failure to do so can result in a vehicle fire.
Do not remove fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts. The fuses, relays and terminals may be fastened incompletely, and it may cause a possible fire. If fuses, relays and terminals fastened with bolts or nuts are blown, we recommend that you consult with an authorized Kia dealer.
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.
CAUTION
- Do not input any other objects except fuses or relays into fuse/relay terminals such as a screwdriver or wiring. It may cause contact failure and system malfunction.
- ???? Do not plug in screwdrivers or aftermarket wiring into the terminal originally 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 the wire on the taillight or replace the bulb which is over the regulated capacity to install trailers etc., the inner junction block can get burned.
WARNING
Electrical wiring repairs
All electrical repairs should be performed by authorized Kia dealerships using approved Kia parts. Using other wiring components, especially when retrofitting multi-media or theft alarm systems, car phones or radio may cause vehicle damage and increase the risk of a vehicle fire.
NOTICE
Remodeling Prohibited
Do not rewire your vehicle in any way as doing so may affect the performance of several safety features in your vehicle. Rewiring your vehicle may also void your warranty and cause you to be responsible for any subsequent vehicle damage that may result.
Replacing the inner panel fuse
- Turn the ENGINE START/STOP button to the OFF position and all other switches off.
- Open the fuse panel cover.
- Pull the suspected fuse straight out. Use the removal tool provided on the engine fuse panel cover.
- Check the removed fuse; replace it if it is blown.
Spare fuses are provided in the engine compartment fuse panel. - Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly in the clips.
CAUTION
Always securely install the fuse panel cover in the engine compart-ment to protect against electrical failure which may occur from water contact. Listen for the audible click-ng sound to ensure fuse panel cover is securely fastened.
Multi fuse
If the multi fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:
- Turn the ENGINE START/STOP button to the OFF position and all other switches off.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the nuts shown in the picture above.
- Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
- Reverse these steps to reinstall the multi-fuse.
NOTICE
Do not disassemble or assemble the multi-fuse when it is secured with nuts and bolts. Incorrect or partial assembly torque may cause a fire. Have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Main fuse
If the main fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:
- Turn the ENGINE START/STOP button to the OFF position and all other switches off.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the nuts shown in the picture above.
- Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
- Reverse these steps to reinstall the multi-fuse.
NOTICE
The electronic system may not function correctly even when the engine compartment and internal fuse box’s individual fuses are not disconnected. In such case the cause of the problem may be the 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.
NOTICE
Do not disassemble or assemble the multi-fuse when it is secured with nuts and bolts. Incorrect or partial assembly torque may cause a fire. Have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer.
Battery fuse
If the battery fuse is blown, it must be removed as follows:
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Remove the nuts shown in the picture below.
- Replace the fuse with a new one of the same rating.
- Reinstall in the reverse order of removal.

NOTICE
If the battery fuse is blown, have the vehicle checked by an authorized 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.
