According to KIA part store, the relay is not in the fuse box, but under dashboard https://www.kiapartsnow.com/genuine/kia-relay-a-t-contr~9544539052.html?vin=&make=Kia&model=Amanti&year=2005&submodel=&extra1=&extra2=&filter=()&location=electrical/transmission_control_unit,9195411,95445

Not sure where it is, should take off dashboard to find it?

Hello,

The ATM relay is located on the driver's side center console.

Please see 1 image below.

Suggest checking 12V and ground at ATM relay, see image 2.
Voltage and ground can be checked using a test light or voltmeter.

Pin 3, pink wire constant 12V from ATM relay fuse, 20A.
Pin 4, black wire ground.
