Ping Hyundaitech
 

Just a follow-up and a THANK YOU.

Some months ago, I posted some codes I received from my local parts store
concerning a "hard shift" transmission problem (and associated Check Engine
light) with my Santa Fe.

You gave me a couple of suggestions on which sensors needed replacement.

Well, I took a copy of my posting and your response to my local mechanic and
he said he'd give it a try so ordered the parts.

He discovered that one of the sensors was located underneath the battery. I
had replaced that battery a couple of week prior to this because it just
died. What I didn't know is that my old battery (which was not the original
but a cheap replacement) had a leak, dripped on the sensor and ate it up!

He replaced that eaten-up sensor as well as another one that you suggested
and, a measly $130.00 later, my car is like new again and my faith in the
quality of Hyundai cars is restored.

Thank you!
