P0506 is a common OBDII trouble code. It is typically triggered when the engine idle speed is lower than the predetermined limit set by the manufacturer. It is a generic code, which means that it has the same meaning for the Kia Forte as it would any other vehicle. P0506 Symptoms: Forte Most … Read more
P0156 is an OBDII trouble code that occurs in the Kia Forte. It is typically caused when the O2 Sensor voltage is not within its specified operating range. Bank two will be the side of the engine with cylinder 2 in the firing order. Sensor 2 is aft of the catalytic converter. … Read more
P0505 is an OBDII code that deals with the idle air control system in the Kia Forte. It’s a generic code, which means that it has the same meaning for the Forte as it would any other vehicle (Forte or not). P0505: Idle Air Control System: Malfunction When P0505 is triggered, it is typically caused … Read more
P0158 is an OBDII code that occurs in many vehicles, including the Kia Forte. The code is triggered when: The voltage at the O2 sensor remains above threshold for 20 seconds or more Voltage to the sensor is to high (wiring problem, think short) Bad O2 sensor itself There are also some less likely problems … Read more
P0153 is a common OBDII code that occurs in many vehicles, including the Kia Forte. The code is triggered when there is an issue with the response time from the O2 sensor when switching voltage levels. The Oxygen sensor is responsible for helping the ECM monitor oxygen levels in the exhaust in order to … Read more
P0139 is a common OBDII code that occurs in many vehicles, including the Kia Forte. The code is triggered when there is an issue with the response time from the oxygen (O2) sensor when switching voltage levels. The Oxygen sensors are responsible for helping the ECM meter oxygen levels in the exhaust, and helping to … Read more
P0140 is a generic OBDII trouble code. It has the same meaning for any vehicle with OBDII, including the Kia Forte. It means that the PCM/ECM is not detecting any activity from the sensor. It doesn’t mean that the O2 sensor isn’t getting power, but that the voltage isn’t changing, which is the “no activity”. … Read more
P0137 is a fairly common OBDII code that occurs in the Kia Forte, it’s a general code. This means that it has the same meaning for any vehicle. This code is supposed to let you know that there is an issue with the wiring or harness going to the sensor, or the sensor itself is … Read more
P0136 is a common OBDII code that occurs in the Kia Forte. It is typically caused when the O2 Sensor voltage is not within normal operating range. Bank one will be the side of the engine with cylinder 1 in the firing order. Kia Forte P0136 Symptoms Often, the only symptom of P0136 … Read more
The P0151 code is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code that indicates low voltage in the Kia Forte’s Oxygen (O2) sensor circuit located at Bank 2, Sensor 1 (B2S1). The B2S1 O2 sensor plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal engine performance by detecting the air-fuel ratio in the exhaust, then sending this data to the … Read more
