Hi,

I had someone hook up a diagnostic thing (I don't know the technical names for these devices) to my 2002 Accent after the engine light came on. The device picked up fault code 1401 but didn't say what that actually was (i.e. o2 sensor, spark plugs etc). I have tried searching online but am having no luck.

Does anyone out there know what fault code 1401 is for a...

I wasn't able to find very useful information on Google for this so I wonder if anyone here can help.

I just plugged an ODB II tool into my 2001 Hyundai Accent 1.5l CDX (UK model if that make a difference) it retrieved the following codes:

P1610 - Immobilizer Smartra Error
P1801 - Immobilizer Transponder Error
P1805 - Immobilizer EEPROM Error

Since...

Hey all,
so the tranny on my 01 accent is acting funny. It's slipping pretty roughly between 2nd and 3rd. It's ONLY between 2nd and 3rd and i already changed the pulse geneator. That fixed it for about a week and now it's back and as bad as ever

ideas?

The car has been well cared for and runs really smooth besides this

I have a 2001 Accent 1.6 l. I was going to take it to get a NYS inspection done and when I checked the computer with my Auto Xray scan tool all the readiness test were done except the EVAP test. I have driven it for almost 250 miles on the highway at steady speeds bet 45 and 55 for 30 min at a time with no luck. Did it with full tank. No check engine light. Any ideas? Most of my cars usually...

Hi, the name is alfred. I have a 2001 1.6 litre accent. When I initially start my car it seems fine, in park or neutral I punch the pedal and the engines revs perfectly. The problem comes after the engine warms up or a few minutes a driving power seems to begin to diminish. when revs drop and I accelerate again (i.e. traffic light, stop sign, etc. ) instead of a steady acceleration the engine...

I am trying to find some sites online to find parts for my Accent. It seems that most sites will have a few items or none at all. Do you guys know any Hyundai accommodating sites? Thanks

What's the proper way to gain access to the tail light (Brake) bulbs on a 2001 accent? default/57.gif' '57.gif' />

The check engine light is always on. I changed so many parts including the gas cap, sparking plugs, air filter etc. I disconnected the battery too but the light goes on again. Any advices?

Greetings all... I'm back again...

Hey all,
My belt is squealing pretty badly when I start the car, and also when I turn the A/C on until the engine has warmed up. I've tightened the belt, AND put some lube on it. What on earth could be the problem?

I was wondering is there a way to add power locks to my 05 GSI? Reason why I ask is because when you turn the key twice on the door lock it opens all latches. what would be the easiest or cheapest way?

can i use an OBD II computer to check if my timing is set correctly? i think that my problem with bad mileage and performance may be that my timing is off slightly. rather than go to a shop, id like to check this first if i can, and how would i know what a correct reading would be????

OK. So I've read all the previous forums of people who have accents that will crank but won't start. I found out that the fuel pump was not spinning, so I purchased a replacement. Before installing it, I connected all of the wires and the new pump wouldn't spin either. I then hooked the pump directly to the battery and it spins with no problems. After that I realized that the...

Hello.
I've googled this before but I didn't really help.

I've got a Hyundai Accent 2001 model and I'm assuming it's a Tango Red colour.
But where can I find the colour code for it?
What does it look like?

hello all Hyundai drivers,

after a oil pump failure i have to make motor to my 2003 LC sedan GLS 1.5 16v accent.

and since it takes about same labor i think to make the bore bigger.

is it possible to go 1.8 L and use elentra pistons?

can i use stock valves, injectors and crankshaft etc..?

what all i have to take care of?

i am...

ive been told that the entire fuel pump assembly is over 350 bucks and just the pump alone was about 100. can this be done easily, or is it not worth the headache? ive already done the fuel filter, easiest thing ive ever done! i saw where the pump assembly was located next to it...anyone done one before? how hard would it be to do just the pump itself?

I've discovered a chip from "SLR Motorsports". Purports to increase HP and help Mileage as well. Supposed to be a simple two wire hookup taking only 10 to 15 minutes time. $69 sounds pricey, but if it gets me 4 or 5 more MPG, it would pay for itself in 3 tanks! Anybody have any experience with this brand tuning chip? Or is it just another scam? ...

Im having all the symptoms - rough, sliping shifting betwen 2nd and 3rd especially, but no check engine light.

should i replae it anyways?

i'm modding my 04 accent and i want it different than any other accent on the road where i live , ive been modding it and still want to mod it alot more and i learned that the hyundai accent in most countries is called the "Verna" i debadged my accent and am thinking of ordering a verna badge , " see here for my car and what it looks like now , .


let me know...

Has anyone bought a HID kit for their Accent?

If so what bulb did you get? I heard the H4 causes problems with the install.

I was thinking a 9000K. I found a site that has the conversion kit for $251, is this considered a good deal or not?


Thanks!

Hello, I'm new to the forum and looking for a bit of help with a serious problem. My girlfriend drives a 2002 Hyundai Accent A/T with a 1.5L SOHC in it. The other day we were driving in it and she came off of a ramp and accelerated into traffic. When she eased off of the accelerator to come to cruising speed, it came out of overdrive but instead of going into gear it went into a neutral...

I noticed a few spots that appear to be mold on the white surface of my gauges. It is not visible in daylight, but appears as dark spots when the instrument panel lights are on at night. It seems to be getting worse. Is there anything I can do to get rid of this without disassembling the whole dash. If I have to do this, how is it accomplished? I've seen gauge back panels for 20 bucks on ebay...

again, is there anywhere in the world that has sunroofs for the LC2 accent as a factory standard or aftermarket add-on ?

is there any LC-LC2 accents in the world that came with leather seats ?
factory leather seats ?

cheers

So my 2000 Accent 1.5L Manual (SOHC) with 87000 miles has been having slight idling issue for the last couple weeks. It starts fine and idles fine until I drive it around a bit and let the engine warm up. After about 10 minutes the idle is not as smooth and I get a little bit of engine vibration (like it wants to start stalling) every couple seconds. It's not consistent on reproducing it,...

So I isolated my problem to this:
My automatic 01 accent slips/shifts rough when switching from 2nd to 3rd for the first time if i dont warm up the engine before driving. It's always fine after the first time, as if it has to do that for the tranny to remember how to switch from 2nd to 3rd, and if i let the enging warm p for ten minutes before driving it usually doesnt happen. No lights...

The throwout bearing in my 01 accent has always had a whine to it, but a week ago it started making grinding sounds whenever the clutch would be engaged. I ordered a new clutch kit and flywheel and waiting on it. I have a few ?'s to those who have done this before. I figured that since my car has almost 130K miles on it, I should replace the clutch since I'm down there.

I...

Hey all,
I have a 2001 Accent. 131k, Timing belt has been changed professionally within the last two months and I'm having an odd problem. Before the engine gets warm the car is running very poorly : it idles fine, but until the engine is warm when driving in normal conditions at normal speeds the transmission seems to "Catch" once or twice. It will rev a second or two too long...

car - 2004 Accent auto.- 1.6l - 97K miles
After battling a few months to get my check engine light - fault code P0304 to go off I finally remedied the problem with 3 bottles/fill ups of STP Gas treatment. This was about 1500miles ago.

Fast approaching the 100K mark in the wife's '04 Accent (auto. trans 1.6l). So far the only real problem she's had is the cassette player is jammed...lololol. And check engine light for a misfire baffled me until I used 4 cans/fill ups of fuel inj. cleaner whch solved my problem.

The car died and quit running! The OBD code indicated a "cam position senser." Replaced it, no luck!!! Through further investigation, by removing the top portion of the timing belt cover I dicovered that the timing belt was not turning even though it was in tact. By rotating it by hand I found approx. 20 teeth missing resulting in the crankshaft turning but not the cam. I...

I have 2000 Accent, and I diagnosed faulty MAF sensor. I tried cleaning it and it didn't help. I have MAF sensor from old 1999 Accent that works, but it has 4 pin connector instead of 5 pin, and it doesn't have integrated IAT sensor.
How can I connect this old 4 pin MAF sensor and seperate IAT sensor to my 5 pin connector?
Does anyone have wiring diagrams of these two different...

i was wondering what reading i should expect as normal, or at least "properly functioning" from the O2 sensors on my 2000 Accent with a 1.5 litre. i have watched the numbers fluctuate when i hook it up to an OBD II, but wondered what range is good to indicate that they are functioning correctly. does anyone know what it would be, for both sensors, at idle and while driving?????...or at...

My 02 Accent (GSI, 3-door, standard) has been giving me starting problems for a few months now. Usually it's fine but every once in a while it takes a while to start or won't start at all. It'll turn overbut won't ignite. The check engine light doesn't come on and the battery is fine.

I first took it onto the place where I get the oil changed - a fairly reputable...

My car is a 2000 accent 2 dr, manual with the 1.5litre. when i bought the car at 60000 miles, it was getting 36mpg at best, then about 33. as of recently, ive seen 30, then 27mpg, now im down to 23mpg!!! this is like V6 mileage without the performance!! a year ago, at just over 80000 miles, the timing belt went, so i had that fixed and had to have a valve job done too. the car...

Hello All,

I own a 2002 Accent with 82,000 miles on the body and 102,000 miles on the motor. My timing belt went when I was driving and required an engine swap. Since that time I've been getting the error codes P0030, P0031, and P0135. Does this deal with the O2 sensor that's not located on the manifold and if so, what can I do to fix the problem? Will replacing the O2 sensor and the fuse work or...

For those of you who neglect your "routine" maintenance of changing your timing belt every 100 000 km. I have potentially good news, mine failed and there was no damage to the valves or anything... other than the belt.

My timing belt failed while I was driving, and i was worried that it may have bent a valve or something, but as it made no noise when it failed I figured I was...

Just wondering if anyone has ever had this problem which happened to me this week. I left the house to go to work. I lost overdrive for the day. The engine light came on and there was no overdrive.

Hey, im new to this forum and new to hyundai's.
