I do not think it is the air compressor for the fact a fuse was changed one time & the air conditioner worked for 30 min. until it went out again. There was a penny dropped into the cigarette lighter & I think that is what started this whole thing. How do I know if it is indeed the compressor?

there is a little fuse located behind the coins tray below the ac vent. when mine had the same problem the electrician had pulled out this tray and rplaced that fuse.

They hyundai service manual says the following.
(1) After removing the ashtray remove the facia panel mounting screws
(2) Then disconnect the connector from cigarette lighter
(3) Disconnect thermal fuse case from socket end
(4) Remove the ring nut and separate cigarette lighter socket from the thermal protector.
I hope this helps. I have never had to replace one (yet) so I can't give exact directions. Even if the fuse looks good you may want to replace it and see if that fixes it first. Sometimes they have miniscule hairline cracks that are hard to see. Hope this helps

There's one under the hood, on the right side... labeled Fuse Box and then there's another on the left side of the steering wheel, near the signals, behind the little fold out compartment (which you have to take out to get at the fuses)

Depending on where the lighter socket is, they usually just screw into a shell behind. Put your finger in the socket and turn the socket clock wise after you have place the the shell ion the bak of it. Ashtraay or dash, The back part is there uness it's on the floor. You will have to do some disassembly to intall a new one so why not just put yours back together. Nothing is broken, just came apart. Good luck If need be , go look at one at a parts store so you know what I'm talking about and understand better your objective.

No, it won't be covered by warranty if you installed something yourself. Check your owner manual for where the fuse shud be, its probably blown or missing
