I have a Kia Rio 2008. My check light won't come on when the engine is cold. As a result the vehicle won't start. To get the check light on I would either leave the ignition on for a few minutes or re

The problem occurred after an accident. I recently heard a noise coming from the fuse box under the hood as I was about to remove the battery pole. On checking the dashboard check light, I realised the check light came on. Is this an indication that the problem originates from the fuse box?

This sounds more like a problem with an anti-theft immobilizer.

First thing to test would be the thermostat. If this is stuck open the engine would never reach correct temperature.

Engine check light won't come on when engine is cold.

The check engine light should not come on at all. If it does than you need to put it on a code checker, to find out the reason for the check engine light coming on. The light is known as the malfunction indicator light (MIL). When it comes on it indicates a malfunction in the system.

2005 Kia rio cinco just stalled out coming home from work. Won't start at all now...just cranks. Had to tow home. No check engine light came on and no code on code reader. Ideas?

Check the fuel pump and all fuel related items, and check the coil pack. Check fuse's for same.
Remember, NO air, or NO fuel, or NO spark equals NO run.

Hi there,

If you have your diagnostic codes read from your vehicle's computer, this will determine which circuit and/or component is malfunctioning (or simply not connected).

Your local Kia Dealership can do this for you (20mins) for a small fee.

Cheers,
