Hyundai Sonata - Popular Questions, Answers, Tips & Manuals - Page 6

Same issue here, Sonata 2011 GLS and no key found (but more and more often at winter time) At dealership they said....its 100% computer problem, we can change it for $900 but we dont guarantee it will work normal again. Replaced 2032 battery 3 times made no difference so i thought its a power issue somewhere. i left my car on parking for 2 days for test. Opened door and saw it again...key not found. I connected a booster cable from running car to battery and left it for 10 min to charge. AFter 10 min i had a surprise...key found and car started easily. So its the Hyundai Factory car power design issue. Now i need to change my alternator to cover my theory. thx. ___

Usually it is the regulator in the alternator that causes this condition of erratic charging.

There is a chance that you have a bad drive belt inside of the CD player. You probably need to have the unit removed and either sent in for repairs or find someone local to you that is competent in repairing it.

first check to see if the lock out switch on the main power window switch is in the off position ! this will not allow those windows to work if off

Well just so you know when you take it to a shop. Unless you own the shop you get in line and there fore you don't get it done right away. And if you don't know what your doing you may do more damage to the paint and cost you even more money. So to answer your question yes the fender is held on by bolts clips and screws. And you may end up removing the hood and front bumper and inner fender to get the fender off. Then put it all back together to get the correct body gaps is a must so the hood and driver door opens correctly.

Sounds like it might have leaked out all of the coolant and you might have cooked the engine.

either the gauge or the sending unit. Both can be checked with an ohm meter for accuracy. You will need a manual that tells you expected resistance.

Did this occur straight after changing out the battery, or after sitting with the new battery installed?

Have you checked the new batteries voltage and voltage under load, eg. (Voltage when headlights are on) could be a flat new battery.

Or could be load on the battery after key is turned off, something draining the battery overnight like a boot or interior light, radio left on ect.

Unlikely a short, or you would be in a world of burnt wires from the battery cables.

A quick fix is to first put the wiper arm into the correct position then drill downward through the wiper arm and into the wiper pivot.Don't drill all the way through the whole assembly,just 3/4 through the whole thing.Then break off the drill in the drilled hole.The hardened steel drill will run the wiper arm on the pivot.Dab a little sealant on the drilled hole/drill bit and run the wiper with no problem next time it rains..

o my word if you got petrol and spark it sould start,but if you jump start it you might blow the computor

Look by the air cleaner.

You have a short somewhere in the instrument cluster

you need to disconnect the sounder. they usually go like this when the internal battery is going, it triggers the alarm to go, so remove it and take it away. ie remove it completely away from the vehicle. and put some were where will not do any harm as the battery can become unstable. its a sealed unit, so you will need to replace it, but in there with the unit you should find another plug, this is for a horn type fitting. use an old horn and that will go off when the alarm goes of but you will not have any beeping or chirping from the horn.

test at the pump, there is voltage when you activate the switch(connectors removed from the pump),voltage at the connectors?the pump went south....no voltage?fuse blown!

Assuming you are in the US, pull the dash, and send it to the experts in Mass. (We just did it with my new '96 Honda Odyssey.) They test every connection, for about $200, and return you a Fixed everything on your dash. No clue the name of the company, but anyone conversant with the Internet can find them. Good Luck!

You obviously didn't connect it properly while replacing. Check all connections.

These codes are not usually related. P0171 is usually due to intake leak downstream of the maf sensor. P0340 could be the sensor or the connector/harness.
