Access to the starter is from under the vehicle.... probaly on the back towards firewall and must be over exhaust (looking up from under it) and attached to transmission. REMEMBER: disconnect battery negative post cable 1st! If you want to be certain it is starter first either while it's still connected to battery, go under and check if you have constant 12v on main terminal and switch terminal should have 12v ONLY when key is "cranking"... hold key long enough to test for current. If all is as should be, continue to remove starter after disconnecting battery. Bench check both old (to be sure its bad) and new (so you don't install a defective one).

It is buried under fuel hoses and vacuum lines follow top radiator hose to engine under fuel line between air cleaner box and head

You would have to proceed like you were going to change the belt until you could see it to inspect it. Here is a link to instructions on inspecting and replacing it.

tranny may not up shift or down shift properly

Just disconnect your battery for a couple of minutes.

There's no such thing as a "2000 hyundai sonata v6,2.4 service manual."... Now, there is a 2.5 V6.. .and a 2.4 I4 (4 cylinder).

Go to http://www.hmaservice.com/ and register (vehicle by VIN). Afterward, you'll have access to technical information (manuals, wiring diagrams, service bulletins, etc) about your vehicle.
