How do you take out and replace an alternator on the 2003 Kia Sedona?

First, set aside between 5 and 7 hours depending on your mechanical ability and tool selection. Unhook the battery terminals. Loosen the idler, remove the belt. Remove the top radiator support plastic shroud and remove the metal structure underneath. Remove the cooling fan. Loosen the radiator and condenser if a/c equipped. Remove the O2 sensor. You can finally get to the alternator and see that you'll have to slide it out from the front of the engine. Remove the alternator, careful not drop it or brush against the radiator. Reinstall new one as removed. Follow mfgrs directions on alternator hookup so as not to void warranty. (you do NOT want to do this again if it fails) Roadtest the car and celebrate saving $300 in dealership labor costs.

And make sure your buy the right belt, due to smaller pully in alternator, you will need a different belt, which wasn't in stock in my local kragen, so I need to wait couple days, in my time only weekend available, that mean I have to wait another weekend. To remove the bolt for the alternator is very difficult and has to be very carefully not to scratch the body at the side, to install the original length bolt is even more difficult, so find something to cut the bolt about 1/2" will save you several hours to insert it.

What tools do you need to change brake rotors?

Basic tools are required, a jack to lift the car off the ground and a jack stand to insure safety, once off the ground and supported you will need to get a socket or commonly called(lug Wrench) with 19mm or 21mm socket head depending on your lug size. It is usually easier to lift and support both sides at the same time with the car in park emergency brake set key on so the steering wheel isn't locked. Then once wheels are off you will need a 17 mm wrench/ socket to remove the brake caliper bracket. Once done you should loosen the bleeder valve with either a 8,9 or 10 mm wrench depending on the model, carefully not to get air into the system, and depress the caliper using a tool sold at any kragen or auto parts retailer for about 5 bucks. Imediatly when it bottoms out you should tighten the bleed screw to prevent any air from getting in the system. It is useful to have the master cylinder cap off so any fluid that is not needed in the system can be drained out. It also helps to leave the inner brake pad installed (clipped on) when depressing the caliper so you know when you are getting close to bottoming out the caliper. Next you will need a 13,or 14mm wrench to take the caliper apart to install your new pads. Make sure you use anti-squeak brake adheasive to prevent the loud embaressing noise when brakes are applied. It should be a free floating brake rotor that can come off using minimal force.( should slide right off). You then have your rotors measured for proper spec.s to see if they can be turned or just buy new rotors and replace as needed. (note: turning rotors at a local machine shop can save you money but can take up most of the day trying to find someone to turn them and then having them turned, also new rotors are thicker and disapates heat better allowing your brakes to last longer and are only about 10-15 bucks a side more exspensive then having them turned). Repeat the steps backwards making sure you clean all parts with brake clean to prevent squeaks. Good luck.

What does check engine code p340 mean on 2003 dodge neon?

All "p" codes have four numbers in them. P340 doesn't mean anything. Should be Pxxx

I think the answer you are looking for is 0340 and it means that you need a new camshaft sensor, crank sensor, or timing is off on your car. The entire circuit for these sensors sends off this code, so it could also be a plug for one of these sensors. Good luck. Remember if the sensors don't fix it than they are doing their job and your cam is out of time.

Why does the Battery Light and the brake light go on at the same time on a 2003 Kia Sedona?

Weird electrical problems too

Ha! I just had this happen yesterday! Well, today my car died in traffic and wouldn't restart or even turn over. It's in the shop as I type, and they are telling me it's the alternator. I'm not sure I believe them. Why would that cause weird lights to come on? Other conditions: hot weather, A/C on. We also replaced the original mfr's battery about a month ago, and I now wonder if that was related to the alternator or whatever problem is causing current issues.

Well....... They are most likely correct on the alternator. I just placed my 4th alternator on my 02 Sedona.When they go and the battery is getting low. weird things happen with the electrical system. Also when the battery light comes on, it also has the brake light come on as well. I just finally went on line and purchased a go OEM alternator by USA Alternator and it finally fixed the problem.

How do you remove the radio in a 2005 Kia Spectra?

Very simple...take a butter knife to the lining around your Head Unit (HU).

1. You will need to take the cover from your A/C knobs for this. This is one big piece of plastic that is held together by about 5-7 plastic tabs.

2. Start by wedging the butter knife into the side of the dash right to the left of right of HU itself.

3. Start prying it slowly and carefully because your going to want to keep the tabs intact.

(*1) 4. Once you wedge one of the sides out, work your way around until you completely get it off.

5. What you should then be left with are the A/C knobs and the HU.

(*2) 6. From there you most likely will need a DIN tool to remove the radio. I'm not sure. But what you'll need is to remove the the wires and then simply install the new one. If you've got a double deck HU and your mounting a single deck HU then you'll need a mounting kit. Get one off of www.crutchfield.com They got em' for like $10. Good luck!

My edits as I've done this 5 times in the last week. Otherwise very good explination.

*1: 5 wiring harnesses will be connected to the front plastic facing. I find it easiest to work on this by removing the bottom 3 harnesses and leaving the top two on then sliding the front facing piece on top of my dashboard out of the way while I work on my stereo.

*2: You do not need a DIN tool to remove the radio. Remove the 4 screws and pull out slightly to access the wires from behind. All wiring can be removed by hand and replaced by hand. I've done this quite a few times on my car.

How do you do a transmission fluid change for 2002 Kia Sedona?

The simplest approach is to siphon the transmission fluid from the fill tube. There are several reasonably priced hand pumps on the market that will do the task. You will get about two quarts of fluid out of a warmed up transmission. Be sure to get the correct transmission fluid from a Kia or Hyundi dealer. Save the receipts for warranty purposes. There is a transmission drain plug under the transmission but its placement is difficult to reach as it is situated over a frame member. Also removing this plug will spill fluid all over you and the garage floor.
