Hello, how is everyone? This is my first time posting, I apologize if I am in the wrong place. I am the owner of a 2012 Kia Optima SX. I love the car but have had my share of issues with it since purchasing it at around 78,000 miles and 7.5 years. I most recently have been having issues with...

So my 2013 Optima EX gdi has had an electrical issue since I bought it used, it has a draw in the battery so if I don’t start it every day it won’t start but that’s another problem I’m trying to figure out, right now I’m dealing with a audio issue. After my car wouldn’t start I asked someone to...

2014 Optima Hybrid 12K miles - Bought the car as certified pre-owned in 2017, dealer said it was a lease vehicle prior to purchase 13K miles - Transmission starts knocking, dealer replaced under warranty without issues, said they have seen lots of Optima with transmissions **** out so they...

After trying to change my interior lights to led, I blew a fuse. After reading other discussions on this forum (since I am not the first with this problem) I know which fuse to replace, so I bought a fuse kit on Amazon. After removing the blown fuse I compared it to the ones I bought and they...

My apologies if this is a repeat question, but my left headlight, right tail light, and the dashboard lights on my 2008 Optima are out. I change the corresponding fuses and all the lights work for a couple days and then go out again. I would appreciate any feedback on what is most likely the...

My 2011 Kia Optima has had this issue for awhile now, probably should of looked into it a lot sooner. Today the electrical mechanic found that the fuse that was drawing power was the "Room Lamp Fuse 10A". Turns out this particular fuse powers almost everything electronic in the vehicle. This...

Has anyone had to replace the fuse box on a Kia Optima?

Good morning, the wife's 2013 Kia Optima SXL with a little over 100,000 miles had a issue the other day. I went out in the morning to star and move the car, it started great but it wouldn't come out if park. I shut the engine off and noticed it didn't go through the usual shut down process, no...

My car died at an intersection after the HCS warning light came on. It would not start and they had to tow it to the nearest KIA dealer (not my normal dealer). They spent 4 hours testing, kept the vehicle overnight, and opened a techline case regarding this. Here was the result: Techline...

Hey guys I just realized when I put my car in reverse the mirrors don't tilt downward anymore....it used too but it has stopped and i couldn't find a setting for it so I'm assuming it could be a blown fuse ? Anyone have any idea ? Thanks.

Hi There. I have a 2013 Optima. On the left side, and the left side only, the tail light is not working. It happened at once, and I have not added anything to the wiring, spliced into anything, nothing. When the lights are on, the light is off, but the lights go on when the brake is...

So... I opened my car door to find a wire and a fuse just hanging out... I have no idea what it is or where it connects to. I didn't touch anything down there either. Everything seems to be fine with the car as far as I can tell, but I have not tested anything yet. Could somebody please identify...

So today the car just stopped working...(except with the fob in the holder) Narrowed it down to a blown 10a fuse. Problem is, it blew 2 more times when I replaced it. The odd thing is I havent modded anything in more than 2 years.....I changed to all LED lights on the interior and also...

So of course I just start messing with the car and instantly screw up. I totally should have unplugged the battery before swapping all the interior bulbs. With that admission out of the way, I'd like to recount what happened and where I'm at to see what the next course of action is. I'm totally...

Been a lurker since I bought my car. First car I've had that I love. I just drove my wife's 1993 toyota camry wagon into the ground, and my parents convinced me to actually spend the money I was squandering on a nice car. I did some research and honestly fell in love with the double moonroof and...

Want to purchase an add a fuse for my dash cam, what size are the fuses? Are they called micro ATR or low profile ATM? Want to buy the correct part, want to hook up to a circuit that is hot only when the car is running, and not all the time as the ones in the dash that are hot all the time...

So I attempted to change the mood lighting strips out with LEDs. A simple job, but I somehow blew a fuse anyway. Now I've read about the yellow fuse clip area but it just doesn't seem to be there on a 2015. I've checked every fuse and all seems fine. What could be the issue? What fuse on a 2015...

Hey y'all, Well, finally making time to install my under-carriage lights. My plan is to link it to proximity sensor so it turns on when I approach or unarm the car. Good idea or bad idea or is it even doable? If not, is there another fuse I can tap into rather than going direct to the...

I want to add some ambient footwell LEDs in my '12 SX. I was looking through the interior fuse box, and saw that there is a fuse for a heated steering wheel. Since its an SX with paddle shifters, it doesn't have a heated steering wheel. Would that fuse then be unused, or does that fuse...

I'm planning to add some additional LEDs to sync with my interior/dome lights. I had planned on simply using a fuse tap for the extra lights, but I realized the fuse I need is part of the two-fuse "hot-swap" with the yellow handle (Sorry for the terrible description there, but hopefully you...
