SOURCE: replacing battery cables

Don't feel bad I had the same problem getting mine off and I have been a heavy equipment mechanic for 23 years . These cables are like nothing I have ever seen . Under the bell shaped terminal is a brass cone with 6 fingers and they are connected to the stud which turns when you try to loosen the nut because it is bottomed out . The way it works is when you tighten the nut the fingers grab into the battery post and draw the cone towards the post and locks it tight . It is almost impossible to loosen it once it corrodes up , As it spins it will break off the fingers and ruin the terminal . If you can pull it straight up once it has broke free by turning it you maybe able to work with it better . Hope this helps

SOURCE: Remote switch to open fuel door Hyundai XG300L (2001)

Might be both. Often the problem is in the control switch itself. You can check this by removing the door panel to access the electrical wiring to the switch, then jumper the two wires of the control switch to see if the fuel door solenoid operates and the door opens - if it does, the switch is the problem. If it doesn't, 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. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: How to replace 2004 Hyundai Elantra starter

First, disconnect the battery. Then the only part that needs to be removed to access the starter is the rubber air plenum boot between the throttle body and the air filter housing. This allows enough room to get an arm in there to access the 14mm bolts that attach the starter to the transmission. After removing the bolts, the starter can be removed from underneath the car. lower it down as much as possible, and unbolt the power cable. You may have to twist and turn it a bit to get around the support between the engine block and intake manifold, but it will come out.

2011 Hyundai Elantra trunk won't open but can hear mechanism working. The latches that allow back seats to be lowered are in trunk and there is no keyhole on trunk to open. How can we get into trunk?

Does your model have the anchor point for the child seats on the back shelf? If carefully remove each of the plastic cover you can get access to the seat release mechanism at the seat end.
Try this YouTube link to see if it helps. There should be an emergency trunk release on the inside of the trunk lid.

Trunk ajar light is always on

There is a switch that is activated/deactivated by the opening/closing of the trunk deck, it works the same way the door jam switch works when you open/close one of the cabin doors. The switch in the trunk compartment is bad and you will need to replace it.

2008 elantra trunk release button on drivers door does not work. i am told there is a reset button on the lock but i cannot find it. can you help me ? if u can send a pic where it is it would help a...

Only thing I can think of is the emergency trunk release in side the
trunk on the trunk lid may be out of position. Open the trunk with
your key and have a look at it. Other wise you car should still be
under warranty, so let the dealer worry about it.

Keys lock in trunk alarm will not allow trunk switch to lock

The solution is to pull out the back seat to get into the trunk. There are two bolts holding the bottom part of back seat (bolts located between bottom and top sections). Then pull out bottom section of back seat and you see the hinge for the top section, remove the bolts and then you can lift up and access the trunk. It's not that hard.

2004 Hyundai Elantra Fuel Door

Check inside the trunk on the side of the fuel door. Most manufacturers make an emergency release handle for just such situations. It may be behind the trunk liner but should be on the same side of the vehicle as the door is.
