Hyundai Grandeur (XG) 2004/Intermittent Engine Stalling

Troubleshooting your engine - that's a large arena. After all, most of your car is engine. Or at least the part that you need. Your car's engine is made up of many systems that all have to work together in order to make your car run the way it should. The best way to troubleshoot your engine is to observe the problem and the symptoms, then trace those symptoms to the most likely repairs. We can help you do just that.
Observation is the key to engine troubleshooting. You know your car better than anyone. This means that if it's making a sound or a smell that's not normal you will most likely notice something's awry. Many times a strange smell or sound is no big deal, but when you know that something is wrong these clues can be the key to prope3r troubleshooting.
The following areas will come up during troubleshooting analysis. Follow the trail and you will find troubleshooting salvation, or at least a shorter day of troubleshooting. these is a field case trouble shooting from Hyundai Grandeur.

Why my car won’t start?

= Now here are some tips why car won’t start. there are some causes why this can happen, so again let me give some important tips, Electrical problem, mechanical.
Electrical No-Start Problems
  • Check Your Fuses: Few cars have a fuse associated with the starting system, but before you go monkeying around with everything, check your fuses to be sure it's not that simple.
  • Battery Corrosion: Over time your battery connections can become dirty, or corroded. This corrosion breaks the connection your battery has with the rest of the car, and it won't start. Try cleaning your battery posts, and try to start the car again.
  • Dead Battery: The most common reason your car won't start is a dead battery. If you have a battery tester that can measure cranking amps, test your battery to see if it's weak. If you can't test it yourself, you can test the battery indirectly by jump-starting the car. If it starts right away, your problem is most likely a dead battery. replace the battery, and clean the battery.
How to trouble shoot a starter?
1) Location of starter relay and the fuse.
= First thing to do.

  1. Check the location of fuse and starter relay from engine compartment fuse box,or in passenger fuse box.
    = Pull out and check the fuse if busted visually.= Replace if busted. but if OK to 2nd step.
  2. Pull out Relay
    = Visually check the number of each pin, pin 30,pin 85,pin 86,pin 87.

    Pin 30 = Hot at all times – means even Ignition key is in acc (accessories) position current is flowing.
    Pin 85 = Current is flowing only when the Ignition key is in “ON” 
    note: For automatic transmission this pin the current is flowing from Ignition fusible link 40A to Ignition switch, and from Ignition Switch to Transaxle switch Park and Neutral position, and to Starter relay,
    Pin 86 =From Body ground. 
    Pin 87 = to starter solenoid switch.

2009 Hyundai Genesis Coupe: Suspension Walkaround
Look under enough cars and you'll see this from time to time. The rear differential is mounted in 3 places, but it looks like a 4-point mounting was considered earlier in the program. Think about it: are four chair legs as easy to balance as three? Of course not. Tripods and three-legged barstools rule. It's not precisely the same situation with vibrations, but the principle applies.

Hyundai Latest Model/Tucson

Tucson Overview #1
Tucson overview #4
It’s one of the key principles of geometry: Rectangular shapes hold more than those with curves and sloping sides. So when designing a utility vehicle — particularly one that’s smaller by nature — boxier is better. The challenge, then, for Hyundai designers was to turn that boxy utility into graceful exterior design. The teams at our Frankfurt-based design and engineering centers were able to combine function and form in the sleek lines of the 2010 Tucson — our first CUV to be designed in Europe.

Santa Fe (Hyundai)

Subject: ENGINE HARD STARTING - INJECTOR (VGT)

1) Condition

a) Imposible to start engine (Cranking is Possible).
b) Possible to start the engine after replacing injector but the engine hesitates and white smoke is occurred.

2) Cause

a) The steel ball seems to be stuck the inside of injector.
b) Engine hesitation and white smoke occur due to the abnormal operation of the injector.

3) Diagnosis

a) Scan tool check
- no trouble code
- Check for the generation of fuel pressure by using current data mode.
- The fuel pressure is increase up to 5.5 bar when turning "ON" the ignition key.
b) Check the operation of injector (Electronic control line ) by using test lamp "T" connector.
- Disconnect the injector connector and connect the " T" connector.
- Check if the injector is controlled or not when cranking the engine.
- the injector is controlled normally.


Caution

The injector power which is given from ECM is inspected by using test lamp and " T " connector but confirm to the below.

a) Use let type of test lamp to prevent the damage in ECM.
b) Inspect by using " T " connector to prevent the damage in injector wire.

C) Remove the fuel pressure sensor from the common rail and connect it to high pressure pump and then, check for the generation of high pressure.

- The pressure is increase up to 1500 bar rapidly when cranking the engine (normal)
- Inspect the returned fuel quantity from injector.
- The returned fuel quantity of #2 is more excessive than the other cylinders when checking the returned fuel by using return tester.


* After replacing the #2 injector, possible to start the engine but hesitation and white smoke arenot disappeared when idling in cold condition.

1)
Visually inspect the injector
- Removed all injector and inspect the carbon in the nozzle tip and sticking of the foreing material.(normal)
- Check the fuel leakage (normal)
- Different type of injector have been assembled whin checking the mark on injectors.
2) The engine operates normally after combining the injctor.

D) Repair guide

  • this problem is accured because #2 injector is not injected when starting the engine and due to the poor contact of the steel ball. this symptom may be accured by abnormal fuel fuel, foreing material or sometimes water entering.
  • The second cause of the malfunction is an incorrect injector.that is installed to vehicle.Due to the incorrect injector,engine hesitation and white smoke are accured in cold condition.In this case, the injector quantity is adjusted by ECM as time passes and, the simptom is disappeared. But it is better to replace the injector with normal one.
*these are various kinds of injectors, check the mark on injector and choose the applicable injector to its vehicle
