2007 KIA CARNIVAL lock

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
The starting system includes the battery, starter, solenoid switch, ignition switch, inhibitor switch (A/T), ignition lock
switch, connection wires and the battery cable.
When the ignition key is turned to the start position, current flows and energizes the starter motor's solenoid coil.
The solenoid plunger and clutch shift lever are activated, and the clutch pinion engages the ring gear.
The contacts close and the starter motor cranks. In order to prevent damage caused by excessive rotation of the
starter armature when the engine starts, the clutch pinion gear overruns.

STARTER CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING
The battery must be in good condition and fully charged.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay(A) from the fuse box.
2. With the shift lever in N or P (A/T) or clutch pedal pressed (M/T), turn the ignition switch to "START"
If the starter normally cranks the engine, starting system is OK. If the starter will not crank the engine at all, go to
next step.
If it won't disengage from the ring gear when you release key, check for the following until you find the cause.
a. Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction.
b. Dirty pinion gear or damaged overrunning clutch.
3. Check the battery condition. Check electrical connections at the battery, battery negative cable connected to the
body, engine ground cables, and the starter for looseness and corrosion. Then try starting the engine again.
If the starter cranks normally the engine, repairing the loose connection repaired the problem. The starting system
is now OK.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, go to next step.
4. Disconnect the connector from the S- terminal of solenoid. Connect a jumper wire from the B- terminal of solenoid to
the S- terminal of solenoid.
If the starter cranks the engine, go to next step.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, remove the starter, and repair or replace as necessary.
5. Check the following items in the order listed until you find the open circuit.
a. Check the wire and connectors between the driver's under - dash fuse/relay box and the ignition switch, and
between the driver's under - dash fuse/relay box and the starter.
b. Check the ignition switch (Refer to BE group - ignition system)
c. Check the transaxle range switch connector or ignition lock switch connector.
d. Inspect the starter relay.
STATER SOLENOID TEST
1.Disconnect the field coil wire from the M- terminal of solenoid switch.
2. Connect the battery as shown. If the starter pinion pops out, it is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter,
do not leave the battery connected for more than 10 seconds.
3.Disconnect the battery from the M terminal.
If the pinion does not retract, the hold- in coil is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the
battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

INSPECT OVERRUNNING CLUTCH
1.Slide the overrunning clutch along the shaft.
Replace it if does not slide smoothly.
2. Rotate the overrunning clutch both ways.
Does it lock in one direction and rotate smoothly in reverse? If it does not lock in either direction of it locks in both
directions, replace it.
3.If the starter drive gear is worn or damaged, replace the overrunning clutch assembly. (the gear is not available
separately).
Check the condition of the flywheel or torque converter ring gear if the starter drive gear teeth are damaged.
CLEANING
1.Do not immerse parts in cleaning solvent. Immersing the yoke assembly and/or armature will damage the
insulation. Wipe these parts with a cloth only.
2. Do not immerse the drive unit in cleaning solvent. The overrun clutch is pre- lubricated at the factory and solvent
will wash lubrication from the clutch.
3. The drive unit may be cleaned with a brush moistened with cleaning solvent and wiped dry with a cloth.

1.Handling of Connector
a. Never pull on the wiring harness when disconnecting connectors.
b.When removing the connector with a lock, press or pull locking lever.
c.Listen for a click when locking connectors. This sound indicates that they are securely locked.
d.When a tester is used to check for continuity, or to measure voltage, always insert tester probe from wire
harness side.

e.Check waterproof connector terminals from the connector side. Waterproof connectors cannot be accessed from
harness side.
a.Use a fine wire to prevent damage to the terminal.
b. Do not damage the terminal when inserting the tester lead.
2. Checking Point for Connector
a. While the connector is connected:
Hold the connector, check connecting condition and locking efficiency.
b. When the connector is disconnected:
Check missed terminal, crimped terminal or broken core wire by slightly pulling the wire harness.
Visually check for rust, contamination, deformation and bend.
c. Check terminal tightening condition:
Insert a spare male terminal into a female terminal, and then check terminal tightening conditions.
d. Pull lightly on individual wires to ensure that each wire is secured in the terminal.
3.Repair Method of Connector Terminal
a. Clean the contact points using air gun and/or shop rag.

b.Check the fuel pressure
c. Check the injector
d. Test the exhaust system for a possible restriction
e. Check the ECTS and circuit d.
Contaminated fuel
e. Weak ignition spark
Hard to refuel
(Overflow during
refueling) a.
Test the canister close valve
b. Inspect the fuel filler hose/pipe
a. Pinched, kinked or blocked?
b. Filler hose is torn
c. Inspect the fuel tank vapor vent hose between the
EVAP. canister and air filter
d. Check the EVAP. canister a.
Malfunctioning gas station
filling nozzle (If this problem
occurs at a specific gas
station during refueling)

COMPONENT INSPECTION
1.Check the MAFS visually.
a. Mounting direction correct.
b. Any contamination, corrosion or damage on connector.
c. Air cleaner's clogging or wet.
d. MAFS cylinder's deforming or blocking by any foreign material.
2. Check any leakage on intake system and intercooler system.

INSPECTION
FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRICIPLE
Knocking is a phenomenon characterized by undesirable vibration and noise and can cause engine damage. Knock
Sensor (KS) senses engine knocking and the two sensors are installed inside the V- valley of the cylinder block. When
knocking occurs, the vibration from the cylinder block is applied as pressure to the piezoelectric element. At this time,
this sensor transfers the voltage signal higher than the specified value to the PCM and the PCM retards the ignition
timing. If the knocking disappears after retarding the ignition timing, the PCM will advance the ignition timing. This
sequential control can improve engine power, torque and fuel economy.
