How did you know the TPS was bad? did you break anything (vacuum tube, wire connector) during repair? good ground? was it really clean in there when you installed new TPS? i don't know the santa fe, but did you disconnect the battery during this? you may have to reset the OBD system. if you have the OBD tester i think it has this function, or check usere manual, possibly a combination of actions involving ignition, shifter and/or lights.

2004 hyundai santa fe parked it last night, went to use it today and it doesn't accelerate, engine runs fine, no warning lights on dashboard lit, can put it in gear and move it, but absolutely no...

The 04 Santa Fe came with three different engines. 4 cylinder (2.4 lit), and two different V6's (2.7 lit & 3.5 lit). The 2.4 & 2.7 use throttle cables connected directly to the throttle plate, but the 3.5 uses ETS (Electronic Throttle System) which uses two sensors (APS & TPS) and a control module (ETSCM). APS=Accelerator Position Sensor, TPS=Throttle Position Sensor, ETSCM= Electronic Throttle System Control Module. There are different diagnostic procedures for each system.
Go to www.hmaservice.com and register your vehicle by VIN #.. you'll then have access to wiring diagrams, shop manuals, service bulletins, campaigns, illustrations and procedures, etc.

My Hyundai Santa Fe 2004 doesn't shift down from overdrive when driving at 70 mph. Recently replaced the crankshaft sensor and timing belt. It is an automatic and the other gears seem to shift alright....

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.

TRY THESE TWO (2) THINGS..
Step 1: Disconnect the battery cables and touch them together for 30 seconds (this ZERO'S out the PCM/ECM (Power Train Control Module/Engine Control Module). If there's GARBAGE in memory of this computer (PCM/ECM), this should CLEAR it.
Step 2: Check the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS, it's a potentiometer) for any ERRATIC resistance changes at idle position or any other position for that matter. If you find, what I call BAD SPOTS, in the TPS, replace it. I know of NOTHING ELSE which would cause the problem you describe and NOT turn on the "Check Engine" light
