SOURCE: No parking lights and no instrument panel back

The rio has a light control module in the left kickpanel which allows all the parking lights to work. if you remove the module and take it apart, you will notice that the soldering joints are cracked. simply resolder the connetions or just replace the unit and presto your lights will start to work again.

SOURCE: Oil Filter Location on 2009 Kia Borrego W/3.8 ltr

nazof is exactly right. Totally disregard emissionwiz and clint_carter. I have the exact same vehicle and have changed the oil and filter myself. The filter is located right in the middle, almost up against the firewall, after you pop the plastic engine cover. You must twist off a plastic cap and then pull the filter (a cartridge type) straight up and out. There are two replacement rubber rings that should come with your replacement filter. One goes on the plastic cap (just above the screw threads) and the other much smaller one goes at the end of a plastic rod that is connected to the cap.

yes look there and also inspect your track bar, tierod ends, pitman arm ball joint. Have someone turn your steering wheel while you look. the bind or looseness should be evedent. Its a big sysytem to cover.

2001 Ford Escape. Anti-theft light blinks once then pauses a sec then flashes 3 more times. What does that mean please?

It means someone tried to steal it.

Try this. It seems that 'Sandra' has helped a lot of people!

Sandra answered 7 years ago
A SOLUTION!!!!!! THIS WORKED FOR US TODAY! Try turning the key and moving the shift from park to drive and back. Then try starting it again! It should start. We were ready to call a tow truck before trying this. It worked. Saved time and money!

2003 Kia Rio want start because of anti theft system code

It has to do with your Pat's key for your program key that went with the old steering column there is a copper ring or like a wire type ring that went around the key cylinder on your old column I think you needed to switch that to the new column not just the key cylinder but the little plastic ring with a wire hook to it that goes around the key cylinder this will match your old key
