Why dont we diagnois this car first. We will do the most popular failure Hyundai has the crank sensor. it is located on the left side of the engine block near flywheel these are failing everywhere. Your car has a TAH or RPM guage we will use this to troubleshoot the crank sensor. Get in the vehicle and try start it as usual as your cranking it if the TACH or RPM gauge just stays at zero (0) you have crank sensor problem and you will need to fix it. you should see it bounce just a tine tine bit. before you decide to replace it go to the crank sensor wiggle the elecrical connector is it loose? and inspect the terminal for proper male to female connection. Now this we trouble shooted for no spark , you may have a fuel pump problem or coil, but this is the most common failure. and yes you can replace the CKR cranksensor I had a girl just do hers

98 Tiburon I changed timing belt but now it won't start and backfires when trying to crank any ideas

This is a interference engine, meaning if the belt slipped or broke it's likely some valves got bent and you'll need a valve job. If the belt was changed as part of the maintenance schedule and now backfires double check the timing marks sometimes there are marks on the crank or cam sprockets that look like the marks but aren't, also if you turned the sprockets too far when installing the belt valve damage may occur. I hope this helps. Take care.

98 Honda Accord LX wont start/crank. No noise is made when I try to turn it over. No clicking, revving, turning... No sound comes from the car aside from the interior sounds/lights which lets me know its...

Check the starter motor. Many times they go on there own with no sign, and having someone crank it while using something to tap it often helps it turn over.

Just had clutch replaced on 2003 hyundi tiburon 2.0 now car wont start it turns over sounds like it wants to start but wont and it started fine b fot clutch was replaced comp said to change crankshaft...

If the problem is related to the clutch replacement, there is most likely an electrical connector that did not get plugged back in or a ground connector that did not get put back where it came from. I would also suspect wires getting pinched between the transmission bell housing and the engine block.

The best thing to do would be to scan the engine control module for fault codes. This could lead you to the problem which may, or may not, have anything to do with the clutch replacement.

01 tiburon, alarm reset? wont start

I had the same problem because I store my car in the garage in the winter. I found that replacing the positive/negative cables with new ones and also if you still have your spare key, try putting one key in the ignition and turn to acc before turning it over click your alarm button on your spare set of keys and the alarm should reset itself and the car should start. i hope this helps you, i just finished changing my spark plug wires because I had a code P302 which made my 2nd cylinder misfire, so if your tiburon is around 180,000 km then you should change it too, I recommend Bosch they are the best.
take care
