Check plug wires for a short

To Replace the starter motor of the 2011 Santa fe is simple on nearly every make and model of passenger vehicle. The battery is disconnected to prevent electrical shock or damage to sensitive electronic components, and then the starter motor is disconnected from all electrical connectors. Once disconnected, the starter, and any shims used, are removed from the vehicle with only a couple of bolts, and replaced in the opposite order of operations. The electrical connections must be placed on the correct terminals, also known as "posts", and the replacement starter should have the same number of posts as the original.

get the help from the service and repair manual it will help you to locate and fix the problem by your own no need to call a mechanic so save your money and get the manual from the given link http://toolsnyou.com/

Sounds like a lean miss check your fuel filter for restriction Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/craig_a14a43e01fd0835a

Try replacing you blower resistor. Usually they short out one speed at a time

Some vehicles have a fuel cap pressure censer in the computer this will sometimes cause the engine lite to come on. Make sure to tighten the fuel cap all the way. You might try replacing the fuel cap.

may have wrong fuel did you put diesel in by mistake ? may have water in the fuel put some mentholated spirits in fuel tank if water in it.

There is a factory recall on the 2014 Santa Fe for faulty rod bearings that's a free repair. That could be the cause, especially if it is making a knocking sound.

Try disconnecting the battery for about 5 minutes.

If it hasnt been done already, it's a good place to start. Be careful to release pressure before removing it!

If code says same o2 sensor. It could be the other one they communicate with each other. But definitely get the codes pulled again first.

You might try testing the tps. It may have a dead spot at the high end of the throttle opening. Make sure the resistance continues to change as you open the throttle all the way.

Throttle Position Sensor

Operation The throttle position sensor is a rotating type variable resistor that rotates with the throttle body-s throttle shaft to sense the throttle valve angle. As the throttle shaft rotates, the throttle angle of the sensor changes and the ECM/PCM detects the throttle valve opening based on the TPS output voltage. Removal & Installation

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the sensor connector.
3. Remove the sensor retaining screws. Remove the sensor from its mounting.

To install:

1. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.

Testing 2.4L Engine

1. Disconnect the sensor connector.
2. Measure the resistance between terminal 1 (sensor ground) and terminal 2 (sensor power).
3. Specification should be 3.5-6.5 kohm.
4. Connect and analog ohmmeter between terminal 1 (sensor ground) and terminal 3 (sensor output).
5. Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to the full open position, and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle.
6. If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the sensor.

2.7L Engine

1. Disconnect the sensor connector.
2. Measure the resistance between terminal 2 (sensor ground) and terminal 1 (sensor power).
3. Specification should be 3.5-6.5 kohm.
4. Connect and analog ohmmeter between terminal 2 (sensor ground) and terminal 3 (sensor output).
5. Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to the full open position, and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle.
6. If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the sensor.

1. Disconnect the sensor connector.
2. Measure the resistance between terminal 2 (sensor ground) and terminal 1 (sensor power).
3. Specification should be 1.6-2.4 kohm.
4. Connect and analog ohmmeter between terminal 2 (sensor ground) and terminal 3 (sensor output).
5. Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to the full open position, and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle.
6. If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the sensor.

3.5L Engine

1. Disconnect the sensor connector.
2. Measure the resistance between terminal 3 (sensor ground) and terminal 1 (sensor power).
3. Specification should be 3.5-6.5 kohm.
4. Connect and analog ohmmeter between terminal 3 (sensor ground) and terminal 2 (sensor output).
5. Operate the throttle valve slowly from the idle position to the full open position, and check that the resistance changes smoothly in proportion with the throttle valve opening angle.
6. If the resistance is out of specification, or fails to change smoothly, replace the sensor.

Go to a junkie for the computer . A 1000 bucks just to have blinkers working? I don't think so! Sure lights go thru the computer? Get a schematic and study it. Trust no one.

This is usually caused by failure of the accelerator pedal position sensor, but can also be caused by the throttle control motor. I would test the sensor first. If it fails, replace it. If it passes, che k the wiring and connectors for continuity to the pcm and throttle. If wiring is good, replace the throttle controller.

Check for vacuum leaks and the idle air control solenoid for correct activation .

Since that's a Hyandai I would say with their 10 yr 100,000 mi war, let them deal w it. I did & I'm an A1 auto tech. They lived up to trans an engine problems. make sure u have the right amt of trans fluid in it.
