http://www.bestservicemanual.com 2 Kia Soul: General Troubleshooting Information Before Troubleshooting 1. Check applicable fuses in the appropriate fuse/relay box. 2. Using the battery checker (MCR-570 KIT), check the battery for damage, state of charge, and clean and tight connections. (Refer to Engine Electrical System - "Battery") • Do not quick-charge a battery unless the battery ground cable has been disconnected, otherwise you will damage the alternator diodes. • Do not attempt to crank the engine with the battery ground cable loosely connected or you will severely damage the wiring. 3. Check the alternator belt tension (D). Handling Connectors 1. Make sure the connectors are clean and have no loose wire terminals. 2. Make sure multiple cavity connectors are packed with grease (except watertight connectors). 3. All connectors have push-down release type locks (A). 4. Some connectors have a clip on their side used to attach them to a mount bracket on the body or on another component. This clip has a pull type lock. 5. Some mounted connectors cannot be disconnected unless you first release the lock and remove the connector from its mount bracket (A). 6. Never try to disconnect connectors by pulling on their wires; pull on the connector halves instead. 7. Always reinstall plastic covers.

The backs of some connectors are packed with grease. Add grease if necessary. If the grease (A) is contaminated, replace it.

Handling Wires And Harnesses 1. Secure wires and wire harnesses to the frame with their respective wire ties at the designated locations. 2. Remove clips carefully; don't damage their locks (A). 3. Slip pliers (A) under the clip base and through the hole at an angle, and then squeeze the expansion tabs to release the clip.

Keep wire harnesses away from exhaust pipes and other hot parts, from sharp edges of brackets and holes, and from exposed screws and bolts. 6. Seat grommets in their grooves properly (A). Do not leave grommets distorted (B). Testing And Repairs 1. Do not use wires or harnesses with broken insulation. Replace them or repair them by wrapping the break with electrical tape. 2. After installing parts, make sure that no wires are pinched under them. 3. When using electrical test equipment, follow the manufacturer's instructions and those described in this manual. 4. If possible, insert the remover tool from the wire side (except waterproof connector). 5. Use a probe with a tapered tip. Refer to the user's guide in the wiring repair kit (Pub No. : TRK 015.)
