open hood KIA CARNIVAL 2007 Workshop Manual

1.Turn the ignition switch to "OFF".
2. Disconnect the output wire from the alternator "B" terminal. Connect the (+) lead wire of ammeter to the "B"
terminal of alternator and the ( - ) lead wire of ammeter to the output wire. Connect the (+) lead wire of voltmeter to
the "B" terminal of alternator and the ( - ) lead wire of voltmeter to the (+) terminal of battery.
TEST
1.Start the engine.
2. Turn on the headlamps and blower motor, and set the engine speed until the ammeter indicates 20A.
And then, read the voltmeter at this time.
RESULT
1.The voltmeter may indicate the standard value.
Standard value: 0.2V max
2. If the value of the voltmeter is higher than expected (above 0.2V max.), poor wiring is suspected. In this case
check the wiring from the alternator "B" terminal to the battery (+) terminal. Check for loose connections, color
change due to an over - heated harness, etc. Correct them before testing again.
3. Upon completion of the test, set the engine speed at idle.
Turn off the headlamps, blower motor and the ignition switch.
OUTPUT CURRENT TEST
This test determines whether or not the alternator gives an output current that is equivalent to the normal output.
PREPARATION
1.Prior to the test, check the following items and correct as necessary.
Check the battery installed in the vehicle to ensure that it is good condition. The battery checking method is
described in the section "Battery".
The battery that is used to test the output current should be one that has been partially discharged. With a fully
charged battery, the test may not be conducted correctly due to an insufficient load.
Check the tension of the alternator drive belt. The belt tension check method is described in the section "Inspect
drive belt".
2. Turn off the ignition switch.
3. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
4. Disconnect the alternator output wire from the alternator "B" terminal.
5. Connect a DC ammeter (0 to 150A) in series between the "B" terminal and the disconnected output wire. Be sure
to connect the ( - ) lead wire of the ammeter to the disconnected output wire.
Tighten each connection securely, as a heavy current will flow. Do not rely on clips.
6. Connect a voltmeter (0 to 20V) between the "B" terminal and ground. Connect the (+) lead wire to the alternator "B"
terminal and ( - ) lead wire to a good ground.
7. Attach an engine tachometer and connect the battery ground cable.
8. Leave the engine hood open.

INSPECTION
Oil Specification
1. The HFC- 134a system requires synthetic (PAG) compressor oil whereas the R- 12 system requires mineral
compressor oil. The two oils must never be mixed.
2. Compressor (PAG) oil varies according to compressor model. Be sure to use oil specified for the model of
compressor.
Handling of Oil
1.The oil should be free from moisture, dust, metal powder, etc.
2. Do not mix with other oil.
3. The water content in the oil increases when exposed to the air. After use, seal oil from air immediately. (HFC - 134a
Compressor Oil absorbs moisture very easily.)
4. The compressor oil must be stored in steel containers, not in plastic containers.
Compressor oil check
The oil used to lubricate the compressor is circulating with the refrigerant.
Whenever replacing any component of the system or a large amount of gas leakage occurs, add oil to maintain the
original amount of oil.
Oil total volume in system:
120±10cc (4.05±0.34 fl.oz)
Oil Return Operation
There is close affinity between the oil and the refrigerant.
During normal operation, part of the oil recirculates with the refrigerant in the system. When checking the amount of
oil in the system, or replacing any component of the system, the compressor must be run in advance for oil return
operation. The procedure is as follows:
1. Open all the doors and the engine hood.
2. Start the engine and air conditioning switch to "ON" and set the blower motor control knob at its highest position.
3. Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes between 800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate the system.
4. Stop the engine.
Replacement of Component Parts
When replacing the system component parts, supply the following amount of oil to the component parts to be installed.
Component parts to be installed Amount of Oil
Evaporator 50 cc (1.70 fl.oz)
Condenser 30 cc (1.02 fl.oz)
Receiver/dryer 30 cc (1.02 fl.oz)
Refrigerant line (One piece) 10 cc (0.34 fl.oz)
For compressor replacement, subtract the volume of oil drained from the removed compressor from the specified
volume, and drain the calculated volume of oil from the new compressor:
The specified volume - volume of removed compressor = volume to drain from the new compressor.
Even if no oil is drained from the removed compressor, don’t drain more than 50cc from new compressor.

REPLACEMENT
HOOD ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT
a. When removing and installing the hood, an assistant is necessary.
b. Take care not to damage the hood and body.
c. When removing the clips, use a clip remover.
1. Disconnect the windshield washer nozzle connecting tube (D).
2. Using a screwdriver (E), lift up slightly the socket clips (F) of both ends on the lifter (G), and then remove the lifter
from the bracket (H).
3. After loosen the hood hinge (B) mounting bolts, remove the hood (C).
4. Installation is the reverse of removal.
a.Make sure the hood opens properly and locks securely.
b. Adjust the hood alignment.

CLOSE signal.
b. RAM will pass this signal to LH PSD and RH PSD then the burglar alarm state is decided depending on the
vehicle condition.
f. PTG open/close
a. Only with the information received by RKE, the burglar alarm system cannot distinguish the OPEN signal from
CLOSE signal.
b. RAM will pass this signal to PTG module then the burglar alarm state is decided depending on the vehicle
condition.
g. Panic by key fob
a. Whenever this signal is received, the PANIC function is activated (unless the system is already in an ALARM
state).
2. Functional Diagram
Arm Mode
a.If 30 second timer is elapsed without any changes from the ARM WAIT mode, then system goes to ARM mode.
b. Whenever RKE lock signal is received in the ARM state, then the system makes a hazard flash (1 second) and
sends a door lock pulse.
Prearm Mode
a.If the vehicle is locked using the RKE transmitter, and one or more doors are in an OPEN state, the system issues
a LOCK pulse and enters a PREARM state." In the PREARM state, the hazard lamps do not flash".
b. If all doors are closed in the PREARM state, the system enters ARM WAIT mode, and the hazard lamps will flash
once.
c. During PREMARM state, if f key reminder switch is ON & IGN 1 & IGN 2 are turned on in this state, the system
immediately goes to DISARM state
Arm Wait Mode
a.The ARM WAIT mode is active for 30 seconds. If any entrance (hood, doors, tailgate) is opened, any lock knob is
moved to an UNLOCK state, or the ignition switch is turned ON, the system will immediately enter DISARM mode.
The system will enter ARM state if none of the previously mention conditions occur during the 30- second ARM
WAIT mode.
