However, you might have something which are called coil packs in which they are bunched up on the right side of the engine.

My 05 Kia Sedona drivers door lockSteve J - 2005 Kia Sedona - Body & Interior - 3/14/2012My 05 Kia Sedona's driver door lock buzzes loudly whenever I lock any door. The van has electric locks, but not keyless. What's causing this buzzing?-
3/14/2012 Spoon SportsSounds like the electric motor that controls the lock arm is possibly sticking and grinding on itself causing the buzzing noise. Or it could be something inside the panel has created an issue for the arm and motor to move freely.
Remove the interior door panel

I recently purchased this vehicle and noticed that the left blinker blinks much faster than the right.PADI - 2006 Kia Spectra - Body & Interior - 2/28/2012I was told that it indicated a burnt out bulb somewhere in the vehicles exterior. I have assured that all lights are operational and it still does this. Any suggestions its like a blinker on speeeeeedddd. Thanks so much. New Kia Owner-

2/28/2012 LEW CARiteThe way a blinker works is there is a circuit breaker. Breakers use a bi-metal strip, and as the metals heat, they expand at a different rate, and that causes the metal to bend and break the circuit. The heat comes from electrical current going through the circuit. Both sides should be on the same breaker, so if one side is blinking faster than the other, there may be a wiring problem that is causing more current draw on that side. - LEW CARite from CARite.com
2/28/2012 PADIShould I try and replace the breaker anyways. Mine didn't come with an owners manual so I'm not sure where to find it or which one to change. -
2/28/2012 LEW CARiteI don't think it's the breaker. If it was the breaker, it should do the same thing for both sides. I think it's a wiring fault. -Lew CARite from CARite.com
2/28/2012 PADIokay thank you very much for responding to me. I'm just trying to figure this out and save myself some money.
