2004 Kia Sorento - Page 8 Questions & Answers
Where are the spark plugs located in kia sorento 2004
You will see rubber leads going to four or six spot depending on how many cylinders you have. Those are your plug wires which will lead to a rubber boot on the top side of your engine. Pull on the boot and it will expose the plug.
How can you swap the manual climate control to automatic Climat Control?
You will not only need the automatic climate controls, you will need everything to make the system work. The main wiring harness, the electronic control actuators for the blend doors, automatic systems usually have a variable speed blower motor and solid state resistor, the temperature sensor. You would be better off trading your vehicle for one that came from the factory with climate control.
Cruise control does not work and can't find a fuse?
Hi!
The Sorento has fuses at your left foot, under or above (depends on which model) the hood opening lever, and under the hood on the right, next to the battery. If you open them, you have to watch for the inside of the removed plastic top, there you will find a written and pictured description which helps you identifying the fuses.
I had the same problem on my Sorento, but it wasn't the fuses, if fact I cleaned it with high pressure air from my compressor (with about 6 bar of pressure, don't know how much it is in psi) and it worked well for a few months, then it didn't work again, but I didn't clean it anymore as I didn't use it that much. Usually it goes wrong easier when you don't use it. Remember that you need to press the 'cruise" button on the dashboard before you can use the cruise control on the steering wheel.
Hope I could help you.
My overdrive light is flashing, what does this
In many cars, this light means the car wants to use the overdrive gear but it has been overridden by the driver. If you have an overdrive button, try switching it on and see if the light stops flashing.
Another reason for the light may be that the transmission cannot shift into overdrive due to a fault. To be sure, check your owners manual and let us know if you still have questions.
Where is the fuel pump? is it in gas tank?
yes it is in the tank. but you can remove the rear seat to get to the fuel pump, instead of dropping tank. (2003 to 2005) kia sorento. fuel filter is inside tank and replaced with fuel pump as an assembly.
I have a 2005 kia sorento v6 3.5L. the check
Notice that all of the misfiring cylinders are on the same side of the engine. How was it determined that this is an electrical issue? I would expect further codes to turn up as a misfire code is not very informative. Good luck!

04 KIA SORENTA ac coolant fan stays on even if
There has been known promblem with the 03- early 05 sorento of radiator fan staying on even after engine is turn off, it is claim to be a electrical malfuction in the engine termalstat. However you may just need to check your coolant level and fill it up as there is also a promblem to the sorento's having a leaking radiator coolant resevior too. Pretty much I own a 03 sorento, and it has been nothing but promblem, but glad I got rid of it. However like I said, check your coolant level, and fill it up with 50/50 coolant to recommended level. Should be able to solve the promblem, since it seems your engine is lacking coolant and is overheating, and the fan turn on automatic even after you have shut of your car to help cool it down.
