WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Kia Sorento. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Hybrid motor system can be more quickly diagnosed for problems by using the KDS (Refer to "DTC INDEX (PHEV) ").
    1. Self diagnosis: Checking failure and Diagnosis Trouble Code (DTC)
    2. Data analysis: Checking the system input/output data state
    3. Actuation test: Checking the system operation condition
    4. Software Management: Controlling other features including system option setting and Zero-Adjustment
  2. Inspect the resistance line to line using mΩ tester.
