Crank shaft position sensor is bad. This is the most common failure. Its location is on the rear drivers side of engine, where the transmission bell housing mates to the engine, only one small bolt and a two prong electrical connector hold it on. Usually will not throw a trouble code. If you remove it you can test it with an ohm meter, will have an erratic reading or read open loop, can malfunction intermittently or permanently after parking vehicle and won't restart. Applying some heat source to it during ohm testing with a hot air heat gun will usually cause the sensor to read open loop if your not sure if its bad or not. This reply is probably way to late, but I just happened to come accross it while online. Harry (master certified MBZ diagnostic tech) , aftermarket stereo? dome lights? car alarm? Use a multimeter and see what fuse has power draw when car is off. , Hi 1) Turn the key to position #1 and make sure the menu in the instrument cluster is on the total mileage and trip mileage screen. 2) Press the 'accept call' button and hold it. Then press the 'ok' button, this will take you to another menu screen. 3) Scroll around to find 'assyst plus', hit 'ok'. 4) Find the 'full service' option and hit ok 5) Confirm service with the ok button, it will then say 'service confirmed'. 6) Use the back button to scroll back out.

2011 Kia Rio 1.4, no spark in ignition?

When you disconnected the battery, you broke the links in the key and transponder for the security system. As a result, the ECM is withholding a spark to the ignition. Number 1 tip when changing batteries is to maintain power to the system with a battery charger, jump leads or a couple of lengths of wire.

Doesn t start

Check the 12 volt auxiliary battery, a low /discharged battery will shut the system down, there has to be 11.8 volts minimum, if less replace the battery.

I need skematics on the alarm system the van will not crank alarm lifgt remaibs on will this keep it from cranking

Hi, the starter relay needs a ground signal from the PCM. The PCM may withhold ground unless both the anti-theft system and park/neutral switch are closed. You can bypass this by cutting the dark blue/orange strip wire from the relay and grounding it to the chassis, but this will also bypass the park/neutral interlock. In addition, the the computer may disable other functions due to the anti-theft system, including injector or fuel pump relay signals.
