Check to see that the rubber bumper is in place on the hood and properly pushes down the switch. What year is the Elantra? If it's a 2007, there's a TSB regarding replacing the hood bumper with a thicker one. |

My '01 was doing the same thing, because the sensor under the passenger side of the hood wasn't depressing sufficiently. I took the cheap course of action of sticking something on top of the switch that would depress it further (I got a rubber cork/stopper from Home Depot and hollowed it out enough to snugly fit it over the switch). That fixed it right up. In my case, I think it was because the hood was bent - no idea why, how (not sure if it was like that when I got it, but when I noticed it, I can't imagine having not noticed it earlier). Can't imagine the '06 is that much changed from the '01 (it's still an XD, right?) |
