1997 Hyundai Accent - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I took the time to check the handles on the car and they look different. But in the beginning I was not sure if they could be used on both front and back, but by looking close to them I fihured it out. Thanks for having this site to help ppl out, I appreciate it!!!!!!

when the airbag light is on it is disabled. a scan tool can read the codes that are turning the light on, a common problem is clockspring in the column.

There is a shaft and then a column in the diagram for that car. The issue is most likely the u-joint on the shaft. The whole shaft comes with the joint and it is about 300 dollars for the part.

by removing the cat converter and not fixing the fault you have created more problems for yourself all you had to do was have the fault codes read to find the problem running rough and over heating cat indicates flooding from problem injectors or excessive fuel pressure

remove back seat bottom cushion to access fuel pump and wires ,the fuel level sensor is mounted to the side of the fuel pump module and will need to be replaced

Sounds like a ECU problem. The main computer. Take it to a Hyundai dealership and have them check the computer. You don't say how many cylinders if the cylinders are next to each other could have engine or gasket damage

I, feel sorry for you, after reading your problem, but don't worry you visit the Reliable-Store they will help you for sure. Best Manuals

That little hole is called a tel-tale hole, it let's you know when the seal has started to leak, and prevents leaking coolant from entering the bearing..

You will need to replace your coolant pump..

Check your starter relay fuse..... New battery....

Bad control panel

intake?head?timing cover?valve cover?engine pan?transmission pan?transaxle case?torque converter?

Check fluid level and condition. If it smells burnt or is not a healthy red, then do change the fluid and filter. If it still does not work properly after the fluid and filter change, you will need to have the transmission looked at by a good transmission shop.

Removing the engine crank pulley bolt requires a high amount of applied torque and often results in turning the engine before the bolt can be loosened. The safest way to keep the engine from turning is a follows: remove a spark plug and feed a length of clothes line rope into the cylinder until it can take no more of the rope. At this point you will be able to apply the amount of torque you need to loosen the bolt safely and the engine will no longer move while you are applying torque because the cylinder will come in contact with the cushion of rope and stop turning, preventing any risk of damage to your engine. This will work nicely with any engine and with any number of cylinders.

If you drive on rough roads, your speaker's connectors may have come undone. Get a repair manual from library, pull the radio, and check the wires.

Best thing you could do here is contact a body shop or windshield replacement business. Shop manuals do not describe procedures for replacing windshield glass.

Can you explain this in a little kore detail please?

Have the pressure checked on your fuel pump and have the fuel filter checked as well.

it is about time to replace the fuel filter at 16k miles. You have to disconnect the whole fuel pump-sending unit module from underneath the rear passenger seat, empty the fuel line by starting the engine with the fuel pump disconnected till it stalls, disconnect fuel lines to and from the fuel filter (which you located), remove filter from its holder, replace it, re attach fuel lines, re connect fuel pump module, and you should be good to go. A final word of advice: whenever working with fuel, disconnect your car battery. Also after doing this procedure check for any fuel leaks while the engine is running.

At a guess here I would say that you are up for a new clutch kit. Test it by engaging 1st gear with the engine off--depress the clutch--start engine ---let out the clutch. If it just makes the noise and smells then it will be a clutch kit job.

There isn't just one reason for this symptom. It may or may not be related to the recent head repair. Inspection of the engine compartment will be needed. I would first check to see if the engine light is on. If it is then the codes will need to be read. The codes could hold vital information to help get down to the bottom if this. If not, then look over the engine. Look for pinch, damage, pulled, or unplugged wiring and vacuum lines. your idle issue could be something simple. Maybe the mechanic accidentally put the spark-plug wires on wrong. The more tests that you run and the more information that you provide, it will help us narrow down your search. A large part of the engines functions are electronically controlled. It is possible that there is a failure within anyone of the many electrical parts. It is also possible that there is a mechanical failure. Low oil or fuel pressure, engine running cold, clogged filters, or a blockage inside the catalytic convertor, these could all be suspected and related. I guess the long and short of it is that yes, I have some ideas but no, I'm not sure which one applies to your car. Please write back with what you have checked, what you want to try, and any ideas that you have. Hopefully we can get down to the bottom of this soon. good luck.
