Is there a fuse on the sorento to make the fuel light work the front fog light work and the headlight light work on the dashboard?

Asked by Wiki User

In response to your question I have a 03 Sorento the vehicle from hell.

Recently the drl (day time running light) fuse relay went.

That is the daytime running light fuse it controls the headlights and the brake lights and the fog lights. So keep an eye on it.

The fog lights went first then about a month after that all the lights went. The dealer told me the relay wasn't cheap $350.00. This wasn't what I was expected after having to spend $5000.00 on a engine and after spending 2500.00 on a crank bolt and 100.00 on belt. What the hell, spend more money on drl but just keep an eye on the brake and head lights the fog light is the first sign its going.

"There is a wire that wasn't insulated enough" was the answer I finally got. They finally fixed it at the 96,000 mile mark but it's now doing it again. The REAL fix? Still researching!

2008 Kia Sorento headlight bulb lamp replacement: Purchase the correct replacement headlight bulb(s) first, before disassembling the vehicle. See sources and related links below for replacement bulb information. 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).

A good service is what you need as this is most probably caused by a blocked fuel filter,Ill be surprised if its anything else.Check the other fiters as well and dont forget to do an oil change,new engines are not cheap

Use exactly what Kia recommends and nothing else. Why would you want to use another weight? They all cost the same.

It is located directly to the right of the engine cover - the cover goes around the filter so that you don't have to take the cover off to change the filter!
