Description and operation
Description

Installed on the delivery pipe, the Rail Pressure Sensor (RPS) measures the instantaneous fuel pressure in the delivery pipe. The sensing element (semiconductor element) built into the sensor converts the pressure to voltage signal. By using this signal, the ECM controls the correct injection amount and timing and adjusts the fuel pressure with the fuel pressure regulator valve if the actual pressure calculated by the RPS output signal is different from the target pressure.

Removal
1.

Release the residual pressure in fuel line.

(Refer to the Fuel Delivery System - "Release Residual Pressure in Fuel Line")

2.

Switch "OFF" the ignition and disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

3.

Remove the intake manifold.

(Refer to Engine Mechanical System - “Intake Manifold”)

4.

Remove the delivery pipe foam (A).

5.

Disconnect the rail pressure sensor connector (A), and then remove the sensor (B) from the delivery pipe.

Installation
  

Install the component to the specified torques.

Note that internal damage may occur when the component is dropped. If the component has been dropped, inspect before installing.

1.

Install in the reverse order of removal.

To release the EPB (electronic parking brake), press the EPB switch while doing the following: Have the ignition switch or engine start/stop button in the ON position. Depress the brake pedal. The shift lever must be in P (Park). Make sure the brake warning light goes off. To release EPB (electronic parking brake) automatically: Shift lever in P (Park) With the engine running depress the brake pedal and shift out of P (Park) to R (Reverse) or D (Drive).

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Air Cleaner Filter

Repair procedures Inspection 1. Remove the air cleaner element. 2. Check that the air filter is excessively dirty. If the air filter is excessively dirty, replace the air cleaner element. 3. If the air cleaner element needs to be cleaned, blow compressed air as shown in the illustration to clean it.
