well spend some change and have a simple tune-up. Plugs and filters and readjust the idle.

SOURCE: locked my keys in trunk of 2002 kia rio
Two large bolts secure the bench in place. Remove them. Three large bolts sechur the backrest in place. Remove them. Lift the backrest up until it unhooks from the three supports near the top. You will the be able to remove the plastic panels leading to the trunk. They are secured with small plastic retainers. Good luck. Takes about 15 minutes.
SOURCE: how to change front headlite
Open the hood and locate the three bolts that hold the headlight unit in.
Use a 10mm socket and remove the bolts.
Now comes the only tricky part. You must pull the whole assembly
straight out towards you with a ****. This will release the one
attaching clip that is not visible. Don't try to pry the unit out you
will just scratch the car or the lens. No he-man stuff either; you
don't want to rip the wires out. A good straight tug should pop it
loose.
Two wires only hold the light in at this point.
Next twist counterclockwise the turn signal socket and remove the bulb.
Now push the locking tab on the other wire/ socket and pull it out.
You should have the complete assembly in your hands.
On the back is a big round cap. Notice which way it fits. Turn it counter clockwise and it will come out.
Inside is the bulb. It's held in with a spring clip. Push the clip down
and out from under it's holder and swing it up and out of the way.
Pull the old bulb out. Remove the wire plug by pulling it straight out, don't twist it.
Testimonial: "thanks i had no idea where to start."
SOURCE: resetting airbag on 2002 kia rio
Typical code readers (OBDII) won't touch the airbag lights. Neither will disconnecting the battery and waiting. If the airbag light is flashing, there's a code involved. The system may or may not work when needed. If it's on steady, the system is failed and will not deploy when needed. Typically, it's a connector in the various harnesses involved. Unfortunately, the Kia shop manuals just say "replace everything" so they're no help. The dealer has the very expensive code reader to read & reset the airbag light. In other words, $$$.
