KIA CARNIVAL 2007 Workshop Manual

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
Operation principle
The sensor emits ultrasonic wave to the objects, and it measures the time until reflected wave returns, and calculates
the distance to the object.
Distance detection type
Direct detection type and indirect detection type are used together for improving effectiveness of the detection.
1. Direct detection type: One sensor transmits and receives signals to measure the distance.
2.Indirect detection type: One sensor transmits signals and the other sensor receives the signals to measure the
distance.
Measurement principle
Back warning system (BWS) is a complementary device for reversing. BWS detects objects behind vehicle and
provides the driver with buzzer alarm finding objects in a certain area, using ultrasonic wave propagation speed and
time.
The propagation speed formula of ultrasonic wave in air is following :
v=331.5 + 0.6t (m/s)
v=ultrasonic wave propagation speed
t=ambient temperature
The basic principle of distance measurement using ultrasonic wave is :
Sensor detection range

a.14cm (Diameter) plastic rod is used for the test target.
b. The test result may differ by a different target object.
c. Detection range may be reduced by dirt accumulated on sensor, and extremely hot or cold weather.
d. The following object may not be detected.
a. Sharp object or thin object like rope.
b. Cotton, sponge, snow or other materials absorbing sonic wave.
c. Smaller objects than 14cm (Diameter), 1m length.

REPLACEMENT
1.Remove the rear bumper ( Refer to the Body group - "Rear bumper")
2. Disconnect the sensor connector at the inside of the rear bumper (C), and then remove the sensor (B) from the
housing (A).
3.Installation is the reverse of removal procedure.

Buzzer

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
INSPECTION
Test the buzzer by connecting battery voltage to terminal 1, and ground terminal 2.
The buzzer should make a sound. If the buzzer fails to make a sound, replace it.
REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Remove the crash pad lower panel (Refer to the Body group - crash pad).
3.Remove the buzzer (A) after loosening the bolt and disconnecting the connector from the left side of IPM.
4.Installation is the reverse of removal procedure.

Ignition Switch Assembly

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Remove the crash pad lower panel (Refer to the Body group - crash pad).
3.Remove the screws (2EA) and trip switch connector. Then remove the crash facia panel (B).
4.Remove the ignition switch (A) after loosening the screw with IG ON and disconnecting the 6P connector.
5.Remove the door warning switch and key illumination lamp (A) after loosening the screws (B) and disconnecting
the 6P connector.

6.Remove the key lock cylinder (C) after pushing lock pin (B) with key ACC.
7.Installation is the reverse of removal procedure.
