Scheme 66

Scheme 67

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Remove the crash pad and heater blower unit. Refer to " «HEATER UNIT»(/kia/sportage/iii-2010-2014/remont/heater/#heater-system) ".
3. Remove the heater blower unit (A) from crash pad.
4. Remove the blower unit (A) from the heater unit (B) after loosening a mounting bolt and screws. NOTE: Make sure that there is no air leaking out of the blower and duct joints.
5. Installation is the reverse order of removal.

Scheme 68

1. Connect the battery voltage and check the blower motor rotation.
2. If the blower motor is not operating when voltage is applied, substitute with a known-good blower motor and check for proper operation.
3. If the problem is corrected, replace the blower motor.

Scheme 69

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Disconnect the connector (A) of the blower motor.
3. Remove the blower motor (B) after loosening the mounting screws.
4. Installation is the reverse order of removal.

Scheme 70

1. Ignition "ON"
2. Manually operate the control switch and measure the voltage of blower motor.
3. Select the control switch to raise voltage until high speed. Specification VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION CHART Fan Motor Voltage Manual First speed 4.0 ± 0.5V Second speed 5.1 ± 0.5V Third speed 6.2 ± 0.5V Fourth speed 7.4 ± 0.5V Fifth speed 8.6 ± 0.5V Sixth speed 9.7 ± 0.5V Seventh speed 10.8 ± 0.5V Eighth speed Battery *AUTO COOLING: Auto speed (4.5V-B+) *AUTO HEATING: Auto speed (4.5V-11.0V)
4. If the measured voltage is not specification, substitute with a known-good power mosfet and check for proper operation.
5. If the problem is corrected, replace the power mosfet.

Scheme 71

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Disconnect the power mosfet connector (A) and then remove the power mosfet (B) after loosening the mounting screws.
3. Installation is the reverse order of removal.

Description

This has particle filter which eliminates foreign materials and odor. The particle filter includes odor filter as well as conventional dust filter to ensure comfortable interior environment.

Scheme 74

1. Disconnect the damper (B) and glove box lift (C) from the glove box (A).
2. Remove the filter cover with pushing the knob.
3. Replace the air filter (B), install it after making sure of the direction of air filter. NOTE: In case of driving in an air-polluted area or rugged terrain, check and replace the air filter as frequently as possible.
4. Installation is the reverse order of removal.

Scheme 75

1. The intake actuator is located at the blower unit.
2. It regulates the intake door by signal from control unit.
3. Pressing the intake selection switch will shift between recirculation and fresh air modes.

Scheme 76

1. Ignition "OFF"
2. Disconnect the intake actuator connector.
3. Verify that the actuator operates to the recirculation position when connecting 12V to the terminal 3 and grounding terminal 4.
4. Verify that the intake actuator operates to the fresh position when connecting in the reverse.
5. Check the voltage between terminals 6 and 7. VOLTAGE REFERENCE CHART Door position Voltage (6-7) Error detecting Fresh 0.4 ± 0.15V Low voltage: 0.1V or less Recirculation 4.6 ± 0.15V High voltage: 4.9V or more
6. If the intake actuator is not operated well, substitute with a known-good intake actuator and check for proper operation.
7. If the problem is corrected, replace the intake actuator.

Scheme 79

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Remove the right extension cover (A).
3. Remove the crash pad. Refer to " «CRASH PAD»(ref-584487-S38218219942013110400000) ".
4. Remove the right shower duct (A).
5. Disconnect the Intake actuator connector (A).
6. Loosen the mounting screw and then remove the intake actuator (B).
7. Installation is the reverse order of removal.
