You have a fault with your power control module PCM (p1640...code specific to Hyundai and Kia). This is having a knock on effect on your injectors (general codes p0201...4) resulting in the further codes (Kia codes p1119 and p1120). Sorting the PCM will resolve the lean start issue and will correct all the other codes. Check whether there is any fault with the wiring to and from the PCM, look for breaks in insulation. Use a multimeter to check on wiring integrity to ensure that there are no internal breaks; wiggle the wires to check for intermittent fault. If wiring is 100% good then focus attention on the PCM. If possible, open it and check circuit board for any cracks in solder around pins. Resolder anything obvious. If everything looks OK then replace the PCM (breakers yard is a good cheap source).

Yes i have worked on these vehicles but never come across this before ,check the glow plugs and the relay to check their all working which i suspect that either the relay/timer is faulty or all 4 glow plugs are gone ,failing which you may need to return the vehicle to the dealer to have the computer re-flashed but i suspect a faulty timer relay or on a 2003 vehicle all four glow plugs are burnt out ,not difficult to change though as their on the top of the engine

SOURCE: 2004 Kia Sedona trying to find the starter.

it is located on the drivers side underneath the van. you have to remove it from the underside of the car. you will need a 17 millimeter socket or wrench. Remove the ground cable before attempting to remove the starter.

SOURCE: 2002 kia sedona 3.5l has rough idle replaced plugs wires and coil

this vehicle has coil packs for the ignition correct? have you ran the engine at night with all surrounding lights outs so its really dark. spray a mist of water on the coil packs and spark plug wires to see if you have spark/voltage leaks jumping out from them. sometimes the tiny sparks will be so fine and skinny you can barely see them so it needs to be dark. hope this helps your trouble shooting. a coil pack could have such a fine crack for the voltage to leak from that you cant see it.

05 kia Sedona cranking and not starting

Trace the power using the wiring diagrams. Pull out the main relay. Then turn the key on. Push the main relay back in to see it it clicks as you push it in. If it does, then interrogate the relay socket to see if it is has both hot terminals with the key on. If it doesn't, do the same but also check for the ground signal from the pcm when the key is on.

2004 KIa Sedona LS Diesel 2.9 At 2000 revs the engine management light comes on & remains on till the ignition is switched off. On restart it is off until you hit that rev band. The car seems to run...

code p 1120 refers to throttle position sensor (TPS)
that unit responds to the accelerator pedal movement (APP)
===causes --faulty TPS--wiring -- poor connections-- TPS out of adjustment

symptoms include engine light on---no throttle response

2002 kia sedona with a trouble code p0350

po350 is coils 1,2,3,4 failed. The ECU has decided that there is a problem with those relays. They may be bad but check related items first. Could be damaged wiring or could need new spark-plugs. good luck.

2006 2.9 turbo diesel will not start fault codes P1119 P1120 P1640 check engine light stays on cannot locate main relay & computer position any suggestions

dear friend-it is very difficult to explain myself in a text. I would say ignore the fault codes at hand for a while untill we have a definate fault. I would like you to make sure that the battery is fully charged, when you carry out the next exercise. I want you to try and start it with quick start, but please do not crank to long, gentle squirts will do it. If no joy, then we must go live chat- I am sure it will work, but please come back to me
