How to change the bulb on the Kia Sorento display

Depending on the years of production, the method may vary slightly. It is still possible that some covers or screws differ. Here is therefore the logic to be followed in general.

  • Start with remove the covers of the front panel which obstruct access to the display. You can use a flat screwdriver to pry in the grooves. You may need to remove more than one screw. In this case, keep them preciously aside.
  • Once the facade is completely dismantled, disconnect connectors connected to the clock bulb of this Kia Sorento. This will allow you to disassemble all of the block's connectors, provided you remember the location. Help yourself by taking photos if necessary.
  • You can normally have access to the defective bulb. Gently remove the bulb of the clock.
  • Compare the new bulb with the old one. The latter must be identical in terms of base and volume. The voltage also of course.
  • Place the new bulb by checking that it is at the bottom of its location.
  • Put the connectors in place.
  • Put all the covers on the front.
