Hi there, Kia Optima Phev 2018. A few days ago when I turned on the vehicle the Harmon Kardon sound system did not play any sounds what so ever. The Kia dealer in Denmark has spent two hours trying to diagnose the problem, but no luck so far. Everything on the multifunction display is working...

I own a 2013 EX with NAV radio, and yesterday my Bluetooth decided to stop working. The PHONE button no longer leads to a separate page, instead when you press the button it just says “initializing Bluetooth handsfree”, and proceeds to do nothing. I’ve reset the radio, disconnected the fuse...

Hello, I was thinking for a while to replace my old radio with a newer touchscreen system. However I don’t have much knowledge on this matter and couldn’t find anything useful to a beginner in car/electrical technicality like me. As I understand I have to get a dash kit first, which basically a...

I’m wanting to swap the stock radio in my 2011 for a touch screen with backup cam or the UVO2 that i just learned about. has anyone else done this? anything i should be aware of/ what is compatible?

Kia Optima 2014. The red lights which should illuminate the radio station which is playing is so dim it is not readable. Any chance this could be solved using "setup"? If not, how can one change the bulb or illumination? I have see Youtube videos on how to remove the radio (difficult and...

Inherited a 2013 Optima and was greeted with an ‘Antenna Error’ message from the stereo display. FM,AM, and Sat are toast. CD and Bluetooth work fine. Repair guy at dealership said it would be around $350 just for the labor. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks for your time and advice.

Hello all, I am planning to install a new headunit this week and I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with retaining the factory camera. I am fairly confident that I can physically adapt the connection to RCA but I'm concerned about signal compatibility. I have a 2015 Optima LX with UVO...

So I’m not very tech savvy in the car audio department so I apologize if I say anything wrong. Recently my car audio system (Kia optima 2015 SXL with infinity sound system) started to get quieter and has gotten worse in the last month. I bought the car it was fine about a year ago. 20 on the...

Hello all, my radio has no sound coming out except the beep sound. Check the radio with a new head unit, but no sound coming out as well. I guessed it's the amp that's causing the problem. I'm looking for a place or a web link to buy a used amp, please help!! this problem has been with me...

Anyone have any info experience on this model head unit...

Had the car for a year, been like this since we got it. Basically they all do different things. For example, volume down turns on Bluetooth voice control, track skip up is volume down, volume up is mute, etc. Done a little bit of searching and sounds like its just wiring issue. I've seen little...

I'm considering purchasing a 2015 Optima SX that has what appears to be the base radio. I'd really like to have Android Auto in the car. I understand there was an update for the 2015 Optima that adds Android Auto. But I don't think that is for this base radio, right? It's for the nav-radio unit...

We have a 2019 Optima when we initially done the setup on the radio we had the option to turn the radio off with the push button or when you open the door we chose to turn the radio off when we open the door since then we have changed our mind but can't find that option in the setup menu anymore...

My stock radio on my 2017LX has a backup camera but no navigation. My other car is a 2014 Ford Flex Limited and has navigation but I never use it as I prefer the real-time traffic of Waze. I would like to upgrade my radio to android auto so I can use Waze in my Optima. Do you have a...

I have a 2011 Kia Optima SX. For quite some time my Sirius xm was stuck on acquiring signal. I didn’t have any audio for Sirius yet AM/fM worked fine. I also wasn’t able to tune to any channels. I did have an active subscription but since I had this issue starting in May I decided to deactivate...

Using xm radio, is there a way to save a favorite artist/band ? On my previous car with xm you could save several artists and when one was playing on another channel you would get a notice and could click on it to start playing, is that possible with the KIA ? thanks highway

Our 2011 Hybrid has been trouble-free so far with just under 50K but the audio system went suddenly silent. No prior problems and notably, the screen still shows the presence of the sound. No just a signal but the actual volume registers visually. This suggests the problem is in one or other of...

Hello - I just encountered a weird error that appears every couple of minutes on my radio touchscreen. The error reads "Battery Discharge Warning! Please use the system with engine running." Seems self-explanatory, except that I was driving to work as the error kept appearing. Obviously the...

Hey guys, a few days ago my radio stopped working. I turned my car off and restarted it and the radio work for about 5 minutes before the screen went black and I cannot use any of the audio controls on the stereo itself or on my steering wheel. I have checked the many different fuses, even...
