I have a 2004 Hyundai Elantra. The seat belt light doesn't come on anymore when you first start the car or unbuckle the belt while driving and the back drivers side door will not open from the inside. Opens from the outside fine but not from the inside. What could be reason or reasons?

Check out the point where you buckle the belt. there is a problem with the seat buckle. rear door which is not opening from inside of the car but opening from the outside. Its child lock mode is on. SOLUTION- open the door check out the hook from where door get locked .. there you will find CHILD LOCK unlock that.

without taking the housing apart......the return spring is more then likely damaged/pinched, or the belt got twisted inside the housing

SOURCE: 2003 Hyundai Elantra to replace a fuel filter do

Well Strauss told you wrong. You can replace just the fuel filter without replacing the fuel pump. And you are in luck because on your Hyundai there is an access panel which allow you to access the fuel pump without removing the fuel tank. Read the warnings and heed them. Work in well ventilated area with all windows on the vehicle down, disconnect the battery before starting this repair, and use every precaution to not have any sparks near where you are working. Click the link for detailed instructions with photos. Please be very careful and do not attempt this unless you feel confident you can accomplish this repair. http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17699

SOURCE: airbag came on for no reason why 2001 hyundai

Here's a quick check list for most common cost of SRS / Air bag problem.

Dirty contacts on driver and passenger seat belt buckles

Dirty contacts on seat belt connectors (under seats)

Dirty contacts on driver and passenger sides weight sensors (under seat)

Seat covers

Weight on passenger seat
(Example: grocery package trigger SRS / Air Bag light on the way home.)

I recommend you to pass an vacuum over the contacts and use CRC electronic parts cleaner to rule out connectivity problem.

I DO NOT recommend disconnecting the negative battery connector to clean the code(s).

Without the code(s) the dealer will takes "BILLABLE" time to reproduce the problem.

Please rate my answer if it is useful to you.

SOURCE: my drivers side seat belt is not retracting on my 2005 hyundai el

Most of the time this happens because the belt gets twisted behind the B pillar trim panel. The lower portion of the panel that the belt goes behind can be removed enough to see behind it by gently pulling outward, it is held in place with plastic clips. If the belt is twisted up in there, untwist it and snap the panel back in place.

Seat belt light doesn't turn off even when the car is turned off.

You have either a short to ground on the black/white wire going to the seat belt switch or you have a bad body control module. Disconnect connector C3 at the body control module and check for good ground with the seat belt UNBUCKLED. If you see that, it's the BCM

My 2004 Hyundai Elantra surges and jumps gears

You got ripped off by the mechanic. A good mechanic can pinpoint the problem by using a scan tool. Take vehicle to autozone or similar and have it scanned for codes this will give you a idea what is wrong. I believe the problem is exhaust related because of the blinking light.

The malfunction indicator light on my 2004 Hyundai Elantra stays on from the time I start the car and stays on while driving. I know that it needs to be taken to have the code read but I was just...

Would you like to see how many different codes turn on the 'CHECK ENGINE' light? Too many to list here.

You're right when you state 'I know that it needs to be take to have the code read'

You already gave yourself the best advice

I salute you!

My seat belt sensor keeps going off when I am wearing my seat belt!!

I found this post via genvibe.com, it worked for me on my 07 Vibe:


This will turn off the 1 minute beep if the car is running and either the passenger or the driver takes off their seat belt.

Get in the car and turn the key to on (don't start the car,) then change the odometer to display "odo" and not trip A or B.

Turn the key off.

Turn the key back to on. Within six seconds of doing this, press and hold the odometer button. Do so for 10 seconds. Then, while still holding the button, buckle up, edit: then unbuckle. The "odo" display should then change to say "b-on." let go of the odo button to get it to read "b-off." Then wait for the display to change back to the odometer. That's it, you're done.

The car will still beep right when you turn it on for 3 seconds if you don't have a seatbelt, but the dash light will continue flashing till buckled up. It won't beep if you or your passenger unbuckles for a moment. Salvation!

Whats a difference between timing belt and drive belt , for my 2004 Elantra Hyundai cernter is asking to change the drive belt and flush the Hyd oil, car has 53,000 miles on it

a drive belt refers to belt driven items like alternator, power steering, water pumps and the like.

A timing belt is cogged to precicely hold the relationship between the crankshaft and the valve train. Timing belts are usually located within covers, as the loss or damage to this belt exposes engine damage and failure.

* step 3 must be completed within 50 secs after the safety belt warning light turns off.
3. buckle then unbuckle the seat belt nine times, ending in the seat belt unbuckled.
* after step 3 the restraint warning light, (airbag light) will turn on for three (3) seconds.
4. within approximately seven (7) seconds of the light turning off, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt.
