The seat motor is probally broken.

are you referring to the drain plug? if so, it is located on the passenger side bottom facing the front bumper. see attached diagram under radiator removal. http://www.kia-forums.com/attachments/kia-carnival-sedona/9678d1319024147-removing-radiator-kia-sedona-2005-remove-radiator.jpg

there could be an air lock in either lines, you will have to loosen off a line at the rear heater and bleed the air out.

does the engine's cooling system thermostat open and close? (does upper and lower RAD hose feel warm then warmer) are the hoses to the heater coil (both hoses) free of obstructions? (pull them off and blown them out) is the heater coil able to pass coolant in one side and out the other? Hook up garden hose to inlet house (disconnect from pump hose nipple) disconnect heater outlet hose from pump and drop into a pail to catch outflow) Does the water pump work as it should? ( should see fluid flow when looking through rad cap opening while engine is running)

They got a special funnel that will seal where the radiator cap is at. which looks like this. http://www.amazon.com/Lisle-24610-Spill-Free-Funnel/dp/B001A4EAV0 You can get it on ebay for $25 too. Fill it up half way and leave it open to the system. Run the car until all the bubbles bleed out. Then plug the funnel and remove it and install your radiator cap. If you do not have heat still you got a clogged heater core. Which you need to replace or blow out the heater core to unclog it.

Most likely cause is valve cover gasket, cam position sensor seal.

it is not hard to do pull the wires off the plugs they sink down in the valve cover just be carful and pull them up get either a 13/16 plug socket and a 6 in extension and take them out one at a time , lefty loosie righty tightie

the problem is from the internal key setting.....u can take it to ur neaest dealer

yea its posible

Most people think you only need fuel, spark, and air to get start. Mostly true, but not entirely. You have all three and still no start. The only thing you may be missing is compression. If the vehicle has more than 75000 miles on it and has never had the timing belt replaced, you may have a belt breakage.slippage issue. Perform a compression check of the cylinders and is they any are low or they are not all approximately the same compression, you may need engine work. If the timing belt slipped or is broken, you may have additional engine damage to valves/pistons as this is an interference engine. Replacement of the water pump is recommended if timing belt is replaced.

I would take it to an autobody shop, most of them can repair bent frames depending on the damage. They will tell you whether or not they can do it. I had a 94 Tempo that I repaired the frame 2 times ( from sliding into curbs in the winter ) that car is still on the road with no alignment issues.Thats how we do it in Canada !! : ) Good Luck!

you can go to you tube then type it in it will show you

This is going to be a "take it to the shop" kind of problem. The cost of repair will be from 500 to 2500 dollars.

yes you can if you have some knowledge .
disconnect battery making sure you have radio codes before disconecting
take picture of wiring with camera phone if possible on starter or mark position and write down
remove wiring
mark starter position that is starter to housing to facilite installation of new starter
remove bolts from starter normally 2 or 3 bolts holding it in position
remove and fit in reverse order

they are on the bottom of the rad either a green or red plastic Phillips "bolt/plug" watch out when taking it off there is a black rubber washer that sometimes sticks inside the rad then shoots out if you don't put it back the plug will leak.

No idea without a good look in the engine could be a variety of things wrong ,including the chip fallen out of the key ,try the spare key

exactly whay john said. always check the least expensive first. also check tension on belt

rebuilding the transmission or replace the transmission. This code is an internal tranny code.

The Kia Sedona computer reads disconnects and broken parts and there are 26 reasons why it will shut down the entire system. The starter still turns over, but the van will not start. I expect one of the essential parts was not reconnected when working on your timing belt. Carefully check all the connections to make sure the components are reconnected. You probably missed one important plugin that is on the list to cause the computer to shut down the system.

On most vehicles, you insert the ignition key into the ignition switch and turn the key to the run position. Then start the car.
