In this video, we examine the anomaly of a Kia Picanto where the audible and visual warning continued to request a switch from LPG to petrol, even though the LPG tank was full. The user examined the LPG solenoid valve, trying to disconnect and reconnect it, and it seemed that the problem had been solved, but the next day the problem reappeared.

However, the solenoid valve works correctly because it attracts iron. The car switches to LPG, but after a few kilometers it requests a switch back to petrol.

Once taken to a specialized workshop, it was discovered that the problem was due to the pressure sensor, which, once replaced, completely solved the problem. So, if your car has this problem, check the pressure sensor.
