How do you remove the manual window handle so that you can replace the front door speakers of a 1998 Kia Sephia?

This is a little tricky if you don't know how to do it. The crank is actually on piece of plastic molded. It is held onto the shaft by a keeper that snaps onto the back part of the handle. It is a little trick to get off with standard tools but a flat head screw driver usually work.

Push the plastic door panel back away from the crank you should be able to see the keeper snapped over the plastic part of the crank that goes onto the shaft. The keeper is sort of a circular spring with an opening. Find and flat head screw driver that will part the opening in the spring far enough to slide it off. The crank handle pulls straight off.

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, a 1995 Kia Sephia does have a TCM (trans control module) it's mounted behind the dash between the drivers and passengers leg area. Where the ashtray should be.... Also there is T.S.B.'s on certain modules if you replace the transmission make sure you have the updated TCM installed. If not your transmission will fail.

What else could be wrong if 2 cylinders are misfiring after getting water into the motor through the intake after the spark plugs and ignition coils have been replaced and it is still misfiring?

Asked by Wiki User

I really hate to be the one to tell you the bad news but it is possible that you have bent some valves. Take the spark plugs out of the missing cylinders and run a compression check on those two.

2000 Kia Sephia headlight bulb lamp replacement procedure: Purchase the correct replacement headlight bulb(s) first, before disassembling the vehicle. See sources and related links below for replacement bulb information and full light bulb part numbers list. Then consult your owner's manual for the headlight bulb lamp replacement procedure. As simple as it sounds, the owner's manual is the best place to start for bulb replacement instructions and illustrations. You may want to consider replacing both left and right at the same time in order to keep brightness and color equal (optional).

What is wrong if i can't remove the key from a 1999 kia Sophia?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is a little white pin in your shifter that could possibly be broken. That happened to my car, sometimes it was hard to shift out of park. That's because the pin wears down and it won't let your key out of the ignition, because the car is not fully in park.

Why wont your car start when it gets warm but it will when its cold?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Right off it sounds like a component gets too warm and fails, but works cold. Is the engine getting fuel when warm? Does it have spark when warm? Knowing the answers to those questions as well as make, model, year and engine size would help to answer your question.

I had a similar problem with a 1987 Chevy Celebrity. I replaced the ignition module and the crankshaft sensor and it runs fine now.

Why wont your 2000 Kia Sephia start when you crank the key?

Asked by Wiki User

My experience is that the solenoid on the starter motor gets stuck and does not move, connecting the started motor to the gear.

Just hit the solenoid body with a mallet or with a hammer with a piece of wood in beteen to avoid damaging the solenoid.

Are bad words bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are no "bad" words, only those that are polite and those that may offend.

If you use curse words in public or in company, it is considered rude. Also, if you use a lot of curse words, it shows that you do not have a very good vocabulary to be able to describe things without cursing -- in other words, you look foolish or uncouth.
