2009 Kia Sorento Questions & Answers
Cd player is stuck on initializing, I just had the battery replace how do i fix it?
Since that unit is in the dash, there is no way to reset it, provided it may have one. There are a couple of things to try.Turn the unit off with the power button in the controls then, the first thing would be to locate the fuse on the vehicle that controls that unit. Pull out the fuse. If you cannot locate the fuse, disconnect the battery again. You only have to remove one cable from the battery. Touch the one removed from the battery to the other one that is still connected. This will discharge any remaining charge in the system. Then reconnect the cable to the battery and turn on the ignition and try the radio again. If this does not work, then the unit has failed when the battery was changed and must be replaced.

This could be one of a few options.#1 could be as little as 1 quart to one half gallon low on coolant in radiator; #2 could be thermostat may be stuck in Open position all the time ( check temp gauge to see if engine is at Normal operating temperature ) #3 could also be stopped up Heater Core....Check this by simply touching heater hose going into heater core and heater hose exiting heater core, at any rate if the core isn't stopped up, Both hoses Should be warm or hot at regular operating temperature of engine warmed up.
Talk only about a 2008 Kia Sorento.
It can only be a few things Gail.
Fuse is the first thing to check.
Then check the switch for power and continuity.
You have changed the resistor, so we assume the new resistor is good.
The only thing left is the blower motor itself. Remove it and add 12 volts to it.

There is a short in the wires causing the fuse to blow. Check the wires at bend points and how they run to the fuse box. Something is probably pinching or rubbing the wire cause a short.
Can I install a used PCM & BCM in my 06 Kia Serento xl & it work.
Yes you could BUT you will need to get a dealership to program the replacement BCM and PCM to match your cars electronics. If you don't the car will simply NOT start. Dealerships charge painfully expensive prices to do this.First check the fuses. Some features on a car share one fuse so when it blows you lose more than one thing. You could also get the vehicle plugged into a Diagnostic System or an OBD2 scanner to see if it is giving Diagnostic Trouble Codes, (DTC's). These will give clues to where the problem could be and if the Control modules are the problem.Try this website for the fuse box diagram.https://fusesdiagram.com/kia/fuses-and-relay-kia-sorento.html
