2004 Sedona Daytime Running Lights not working

[slipagent]

I have a 2004 Sedona that the DRL have stopped working, and I found out thanks to a nice police man that pulled me over to tell me.....and give me a little $75 paper souvienier as a reminder....lol...Does anybody have any idea why they no longer work...all the other lights and lighting systems are fine and working no problem

any help would be greatly appreciated

Have you checked the fuses?

I have had a look at them but can't find any fuse related to the DRL...Is there another code it would be under rather than DRL???
thanks again for you help.....I appreciate it.

How about your 'e' brake, does it work properly as far as it lighting up the red icon on the dash when depressed?
Problem might lie in a module down below in the center console, under the shifter. I believe 'this module' controls all lighting functions. We had ours go bad in a 02 model.

Just spent $258.20 on this poorly made part. $192.80 for the part, $65.40 for labour.

With this, had to replace a broken A/C compressor bracket, $146.01 for the part, 2 refrigerants $35.90 and 218.00 for labour.

Ever since the warranty has expired, there has been one thing after another.

Kia is well aware of these incompetent parts. Kia should place them in their recall list.
IMHO the DRL module, A/C bracket and the back tailgate latch should be in recall list from Kia. The service people that I talk to explaining any problem with my MV can usually tell me what the problem is as they receive so many similar complaints and repairs.


I will never purchase a Kia product again.
