Place the car on a ramp and lift it to a comfortable working height. Remove the front wheel corresponding to the control arm to be replaced.

At this point, locate, lubricate, and unscrew, using the appropriate tools, the two bolts (one at the top next to the shock absorber and one at the bottom immediately behind the wheel) that secure and connect the control arm to the wheel. Remove the control arm and replace it with the new one. Repeat the same operations in reverse order.

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.
