If you need to replace the bulb of the side turn signal light, it is necessary to remove the light itself, which is fixed to the fender through a plastic tab that acts as an anchoring spring; you can practically remove the light by pressing it forward to compress the spring enough to pull the rear part of the light out and detach it from the fender; if you do not want to risk damaging this plastic tab (the plastic loses its elastic properties over time and may break), you can also remove the plastic wheel well cover and access the light from the inside to detach it.

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.
