Kia Stinger CK: ESP(Electronic Stability Program) System / Front Wheel Speed Sensor

Repair procedures
Removal
[2WD]
1.

Remove wheel nuts, wheel and tire (A) from front hub.

Tightening torque:

107.9 - 127.5 N·m (11.0 - 13.0 kgf·m, 79.6 - 94.0 lb·ft)

  

Be careful not to damage the hub bolts when removing the wheel and tire.

2.

Disconnect the front wheel speed sensor connector from the front axle.

3.

Loosen the wheel speed sensor bracket bolt (A), and then disconnect the wheel speed sensor connector (B).

Tightening torque :

16.7 - 25.5 N·m (2.0 - 3.0 kgf·m, 12.3 - 18.8 lb·ft)

4.

Install in the reverse order of removal.

[AWD]
1.

Remove wheel nuts, wheel and tire (A) from front hub.

Tightening torque:

107.9 - 127.5 N·m (11.0 - 13.0 kgf·m, 79.6 - 94.0 lb·ft)

  

Be careful not to damage the hub bolts when removing the wheel and tire.

2.

Loosen the wheel speed sensor bolt and then remove the wheel speed sensor (A).

3.

Remove the wheel speed sensor bracket.

Tightening torque:

6.9 - 10.8 N·m (0.7 - 1.1 kgf·m, 5.1 - 7.6 lb·ft)

4.

Disconnect the ECS connector (A) and then remove the bracket.

5.

Remove the bracket (A) and the remove the connector (B).

6.

Install in the reverse order of removal.

Inspection
1.

Measure the output voltage between the terminal of the wheel speed sensor and the body ground.

  

In order to protect the wheel speed sensor, when measuring output voltage, a 100 Ω resister must be used as shown.

2.

Compare the change of the output voltage of the wheel speed sensor to the normal change of the output voltage as shown below.

V_low : 0.59V - 0.84V

V_high : 1.18V - 1.68V

Frequency range : 1 - 2,500Hz

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Condition and operation in the front passenger occupant detection system

*1 The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as a child depending on his/her physique and posture. *2 Do not allow children to ride in the front passenger seat. When a larger child who has outgrown a child restraint system sits in the front passenger seat, the system may recognize him/her as an adult depending upon his/her physique or sitting position.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Recommended cold tire inflation pressures

All tire pressures (including the spare) should be checked when the tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than 1.6 km (one mile). Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best ride, top vehicle handling, and minimum tire wear. For recommended inflation pressure refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter 8.
