Check Engine Light - 2005 Elantra

Discussion in 'Hyundai Elantra / Lantra' started by Leslie Williams, Jan 24, 2005.

  1. I have a 2005 Elantra with 1600 miles on it and the check engine light stays
    on. At first I thought it was the gas cap thing, opened it and closed it.
    Light went off after a few starts, then came back on. Went to the nearest
    dealer (not where I bought the car), they said the electronic control module
    was bad. Part was supposed to be overnighted, but it was on backorder.
    They got the part in, it was wrong. The dealer actually gave me a loaner.
    They fixed it, I picked up my car on Thursday. Then on Friday the light
    came on again and has stayed on. I called the dealership and they will look
    at it whenever I can get there.

    The car is running fine, and other than this issue I love my car. What can
    the problem be???

    Could be just about anything. Hyundai recently released a booklet
    describing its diagnostic trouble codes and descriptions. The section
    involving things that could trigger a check engine lamp is 36 pages.

    As said earlier it could be many things so you'll hve to leave it with them
    for some time to get to the bottom of it.

    i have a 2004 elantra and my check engine lite (after a few fail
    fixes) was (so far) a DPS sensor.. I think that stands for distributor
    position sensor..

    There's no distributor on your car...could you dig up the receipt and
    tell me the Hyundai part number of that part? Thanks.
