check engine light KIA CARNIVAL 2007 User Guide

2.With the engine stopped, step on the brake pedal several times.
Then step on the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal moves downward slightly, the booster is in good
condition. If there is no change, the booster is inoperative.
3.With the engine running, step on the brake pedal and then stop the engine.
Hold the pedal depressed for 30 seconds. If the pedal height does not change, the booster is in good condition, if
the pedal rises, the booster is inoperative.
If the above three tests are okay, the booster performance can be determined as good.
Even if one of the above three tests is not okay, check the check valve, vacuum hose and booster for malfunction.
VACUUM HOSE (CHECK VALVE)
INSPECTION
1. Disconnect the brake booster vacuum hose (check valve built in) (A) at the booster (B).
2. Start the engine and let it idle. There should be vacuum available. If no vacuum is available, the check valve is not
working properly. Replace the back booster vacuum hose and check valve and retest.

BRAKE SWITCH CLEARANCE
Screw in the brake switch until its plunger is fully depressed (threded end (A) touching the pad (B) on the pedal arm)
then brake off the switch 3/4 turn to make 0.5 ~ 1.0 mm(0.0197 ~ 0.0394 in.) of clearance between the brake switch
connector. Make sure that the brake lights go off when the pedal is released.
PEDAL FREE PLAY
1.With the engine off, inspect the pedal free play (A) on the pedal pad (B) by pushing the pedal by hand.
Free play: 3 ~ 8 mm (0.12 ~ 0.31 in.)
2.If the pedal free play is out of specification, adjust the brake switch (C). If the pedal free play is insufficient, it may
result in brake drag.

▶ Check the ground circuit.
▶ Check the harness or connector between the fuse (10A) in the engine compartment junction block and the ABS
control module. Repair if necessary.

DETECTING CONDITIONTrouble Symptoms Possible Cause
When current flows in the HECU the ABS warning lamp turns from
ON to OFF as the initial check.Therefore if the lamp does not light up,
the cause may be an open in the lamp power supply circuit, a blown
bulb, an open in the both circuits between the ABS warning lamp and
the HECU, and the inoperative HECU. a.
Inoperative ABS warning lamp bulb
b. Blown No.2 fuse (10A) in the engine
compartment junction block
c. Inoperative ABS warning lamp module
d. Inoperative HECU
INSPECTION PROCEDURES
PROBLEM VERIFICATION
Disconnect the connector from the ABS control module and turn the ignition switch ON.
Does the ABS warning lamp light up?
▶ It is normal. Recheck the ABS control module.
▶ Check the power source for the ABS warning lamp.
CHECK THE POWER SOURCE FOR THE ABS WARNING LAMP
1. Disconnect the instrument cluster connector and turn the ignition switch ON.
2. Measure the voltage between terminal 8 of the cluster harness side connector and body ground.
Specification: approximately B+
Is voltage within specification?
▶ Repair bulb or instrument cluster assembly.
▶ Check for blown fuse.

CHECK FOR BLOWN FUSE
Check continuity of fuse (10A) from the engine compartment junction block.
Is there continuity?
▶ Repair an open in the wire between ABS fuse and 1 of cluster connector.
▶ Replace the blown fuse.
DETECTING CONDITION
Trouble Symptoms Possible Cause
If the HECU detects trouble, it lights the ABS warning lamp while at
the same time prohibiting ABS control. At this time, the HECU
records a DTC in memory.Even though the normal code is output, the
ABS warning lamp remains ON, then the cause may be probably an
open or short in the ABS warning lamp circuit. a.
An open in the wire
b. Inoperative instrument cluster assembly
c. Inoperative ABS warning lamp module
d. Inoperative HECU
INSPECTION PROCEDURES
CHECK DTC OUTPUT.
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the 16P data link connector located behind the driver's side kick panel.
2. Check the DTC output using Scan Tool.
Is DTC output ?
▶ Repair circuit indicated by code output.
▶ Check instrument cluster.
CHECK INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
Disconnect the cluster connector and turn the ignition switch ON.
Does the ABS warning lamp remains ON?
▶ Replace the instrument cluster.
▶ Check for open the wire.
CHECK FOR OPEN IN THE WIRE
Check for continuity in the wire between cluster and ABS control module.
Is there continuity?

INSPECTION
1.The daytime running unit (A) is integrated in the IPM.
2.Functional diagram.
3.The DRL function operates the Head lamps High Beam at 50% of full illumination. The DRL function is active if :
a. the engine is running
b. the Head lamp multifunction switch is in OFF position or 'Park and Tail lamp' (Auto light function deactivated)
c. The Park break switch is OFF.
When the DRL function is active, the Head lamps High Beam can't be turned ON, except for the Flash To Pass
activation.
4. If the daytime running light is not operated well, Inspect the connector and terminals to be sure they are all making
good contact.
If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
5. Make these input tests at the connector by using ETM.
If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
If all the input tests prove OK, the IPM (In - panel module) must be faulty; replace it.

DESCRIPTION
The immobilizer system will disable the vehicle unless the proper ignition key is used, in addition to the currently
available anti- theft systems such as car alarms, the immobilizer system aims to drastically reduce the rate of auto
theft.
1. SMARTRA type immobilizer
a. The SMARTRA system consists of a transponder located in the ignition key, an antenna coil, a SMARTRA unit,
an indicator light and the PCM(ECM).
b. The SMARTRA communicates to the PCM(ECM) (Engine Control Module) via a dedicated communications line.
Since the vehicle engine management system is able to control engine mobilization, it is the most suitable unit
to control the SMARTRA.
c. When the key is inserted in the ignition and turned to the ON position, the antenna coil sends power to the
transponder in the ignition key. The transponder then sends a coded signal back through the SMARTRA unit to
the PCM(ECM).
d. If the proper key has been used, the PCM(ECM) will energize the fuel supply system. The immobilizer indicator
light in the cluster will simultaneously come on for more than five seconds, indicating that the SMARTRA unit
has recognized the code sent by the transponder.
e. If the wrong key has been used and the code was not received or recognized by the PCM(ECM) the indicator
light will continue blinking for about five seconds until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
f. If it is necessary to rewrite the PCM(ECM) to learn a new key, the dealer needs the customer's vehicle, all its
keys and the Scan tool (pro) equipped with an immobilizer program card. Any key that is not learned during
rewriting will no longer start the engine.
g. The immobilizer system can store up to four key codes.
h. If the customer has lost his key, and cannot start the engine, contact motor service station.
COMPONENTS OPERATIONS
PCM (Power Train Control Module)
1. The PCM(ECM) carries out a check of the ignition key using a special encryption algorithm, which is programmed
into the transponder as well as the PCM(ECM) simultaneously. Only if the results are equal, the engine can be
started. The data of all transponders, which are valid for the vehicle, are stored in the PCM(ECM).
