There are multiple potential causes for the media button in Your Kia Optima not working. One possibility is that debris is preventing the button from functioning properly. To address this, the faceplate on the head unit should be removed and cleaned to ensure the button moves freely. Another potential issue could be a software glitch, in which case the system may need to be reset. You can reset the stereo in two ways: by inserting a paper clip into the reset hole on the front of the head unit and waiting for it to reset, or by disconnecting the negative battery cable from the battery terminal for about 20 minutes and then reconnecting it. A 10-millimeter socket will be required to loosen the nut on the cable.
