Lift the vehicle and remove the wheel corresponding to the repair area. Using appropriate clamps, compress the suspension spring until you can remove the upper support.

Then, remove the mounting pins of the suspension control arm from the crossmember and the hub (if necessary, use a punch to extract them) and the pins securing the shock absorber to the arm itself: at this point, you can extract the control arm with the spring (held in place by the clamp).

Then, loosen the clamp to remove the spring from the control arm.

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.
