I have a wet dog smell in my 2005 Kia Sportage... only when air conditioner is turned on. Where is the filter and how do I change it??


AND my air bag light is on and has been for a few weeks...reset it with computer at garage, came right back on!! Any ideas??

Open glove box take out the stoppers on both sides and lid will drop down.
Look at heater/blower unit and you will see a rectangular cover at bottom this pulls out after squeezing a clip or two and Bobs yer uncle.

Don't forget theres 2 filters in the heaterbox, second one needs sliding to one side and pulling out, once the first one is out.

Airbag light, maybe garage who reset could give you the code, that will tell you the problem.....

Being a 05 sportage, either front impact sensor or pretensioner at a guess.
