Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you can see how to replace the cabin fan resistor in a Mercedes A-Class W169 produced from 2004 to 2012. To start, remove the plastic panel located on the passenger side at the bottom next to the floor mat; once the panel is removed, make space by moving some of the upholstery to access the resistor to be replaced.

The resistor is located at the bottom, as clearly shown in the video.

At this point, remove the resistor from its housing, disconnect the wiring, and replace it. To reassemble everything, just follow the reverse procedure.

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.
