2007 KIA CARNIVAL engine

2.After pressing ENTER key, start the engine.
3.Cranking voltage and starter test results will be displayed on the screen.
Take a relevant action according to the test results by referring to the starter test results as given below.
4.To continue charging system test, press ENTER.
STARTER TEST RESULTS
RESULT ON PRINTER REMEDY
Cranking voltage normal System shows a normal starter draw
Cranking voltage low Cranking voltage is lower than normal level
=> Check starter
Charge battery The state of battery charge is too low to test
=>Charge the battery and
retest
Replace battery => Replace battery
=> If the vehicle is not started though the battery
condition of "Good and fully charged" is displayed.
=> Check wiring for open circuit, battery cable connection,
starter and repair or replace as necessary.
CHARGING SYSTEM TEST PROCEDURE
1.
Press ENTER to begin charging system test.

2.ENTER button is pressed, the tester displays the actual voltage of generator.
Press ENTER to test the charging system.
3.The MICRO 570 will prompt you to rev the engine until the rev detected. It will then collect the data.
4.Press ENTER.
5.The MICRO 570 will analyze the charging system output at idle for comparison to other readings.

6.The MICRO 570 will detect the amount of ripple from the charging system to the battery. Excessive ripple usually
means the stator is damaged or that one or more generator diodes have failed.
7.The MICRO 570 will prompt you to turn on accessary loads. It will then test at idle and prompt you to rev the
engine. The analyzer will determine if the charging system can provide enough current for the demands of the
vehicle's electrical system.
When asked to turn of the accessory loads, turn of the blower to high(heater), the high beam beadlights, and
rear defogger. DO NOT use cyclical loads such as air conditioning or wind- shield wipers.
8. After the test, the MICRO 570 will display the idle voltage, load voltage and the state results.

DESCRITION
Ignition timing is controlled by the electronic control ignition timing system. The standard reference ignition timing data
for the engine operating conditions are preprogrammed in the memory of the ECM (Engine Control Module).
The engine operating conditions (speed, load, warm- up condition, etc.) are detected by the various sensors. Based on
these sensor signals and the ignition timing data, signals to interrupt the primary current are sent to the ECM. The
ignition coil is activated, and timing is controlled.

REMOVAL
IGNITION COIL
1. Remove the engine cover.
2. Remove the ignition coil (A).
3.Remove the ignition coil.
4. Installation is the reverse of removal.
REPLACEMENT
SPARK PLUG
1. Remove the ignition coil connector(A).
2.Remove the ignition coil.
3. Using a spark plug socket, remove the spark plug.
Be careful that no contaminates enter through the spark plug holes

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
SPARK TEST
1. Remove the ignition coil connector(A).
Disconnect the iguition coil connector while pulling up tre connector lock.
2. Remove the ignition coil.
3. Using a spark plug socket, remove the spark plug.
4. Install the spark plug to the ignition coil.
5. Ground the spark plug to the engine.
6.Check is spark occurs while engine is being cranked.
To prevent fuel being injected from injectors while the engine is being cranked, remove the fuel pump(A) relay
from the fuse box.
Crank the engine for no more than 5 ~ 10 seconds.
7. Inspect all the spark plugs.
8. Using a spark plug socket, install the spark plug.
