The GPS module of the navigation system is located in the rear trunk, on the side, beneath the carpeted trim panel: once you remove the panel, you can access the entertainment system modules (CD changer, GPS module) which are secured to a support system with metal tabs.

To release the GPS module, you need special extraction keys that, when inserted into the designated holes on the sides of the module, allow the tabs to retract, thus freeing the module from the support.

If you do not have these keys, you can use a hex key or a screwdriver as long as they have the appropriate diameter.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
