My 2004 Santa Fe had he check engine light come on several times in the past week. It started to run rough, like it was going to stall, then the check engine light came on. I took it to a mechanic. ...
Probably not a glitch but an possible issue with the crankshaft position sensor intermittently losing its signal to fire the coils.The crank sensor should be ohmed out when the vehicle is warmed up and when it is cold just to verify that it stays with in operating specifications.If it does not then it will need replaced.

My check engine light came on today....I took my 2004 Santa Fe to Auto Zone where they ran a test on it....the code came back PO449??? Any ideas what this means....HELP....I'm leaving in 2 days for a trip...
your going to have to check online for that code and usually no matter what you can always drive a car with the check engine light on as long as the car feels fine.

''check engine light'' illuminated, 1004 Hyundai, Santa Fe
If you live in the US, take it to qany Auto Zone store and thy will read the codes off for you, I would suspect any right thinking competitor would do the same, check if you don't have one near by.

Hope this is of some help.

2004 Hyundai Santa Fe check engine light
I have a book for the Sante Fe, and that code is not in it. I would go back to them and have them re-run it. The person may have just misread the screen.
