Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to install the seal of the pump on a Panda 900: the YouTuber recommends checking how the old pump was mounted, taking a photo or marking the tank with a marker. First, fit the seal around the pump, then insert the pump into the tank; lubricate around the mouth of the pump and also the seal.

Next, secure the seal by aligning the lip with the circumference of the tank. Place the pump in the correct orientation (as it was previously mounted), then push the pump down, alternating sides and ensuring the seal does not fall into the tank and does not fold or crease inwards.

If this happens, it is necessary to pull the pump out and repeat the process. Then screw on the retaining ring, tightening it as much as possible by hand or with the adjustment bracket.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
