Car Forum / Hyundai Cars / January 20052001 Elantra Battery Installation ?
I'm going to replace the battery in my 2001 Elantra and was wondering if there is anything to watch out for,be carefull of.Is there anything with the computers that need attention or is it just a straight forward switch of the old for the new.Thank you. Dadeo, You can try replacing the light bulbs for the rear brakes. I had an 02 Elantra GT which I had a tail lamp go out and the back 3rd brake light did not work and cruise control did not work. Replaced bulb and it all worked again. Might not be it, but its a $1.00 15 minute procedure that might work. > I'm going to replace the battery in my 2001 Elantra and was wondering if > there is anything to watch out for,be carefull of.Is there anything with > the computers that need attention or is it just a straight forward switch > of the old for the new.Thank you. > Dadeo, > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > again.

What does this have to do with replacing the battery? >>I'm going to replace the battery in my 2001 Elantra and was wondering if >>there is anything to watch out for,be carefull of.Is there anything with >>the computers that need attention or is it just a straight forward switch >>of the old for the new.Thank you. > > Dadeo, > > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > What does this have to do with replacing the battery?

We all do. <G> Nothing, I somehow had a senior moment :) >> Dadeo, >> [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >>>the computers that need attention or is it just a straight forward switch >>>of the old for the new.Thank you. > I'm going to replace the battery in my 2001 Elantra and was wondering if > there is anything to watch out for,be carefull of.Is there anything with > the computers that need attention or is it just a straight forward switch > of the old for the new.Thank you. As long as the new battery fits right, there's nothing special you need to do when changing it. You'll lose the presets on your radio, but that's probably the only thing you'll notice. The ECU (computer) will be reset and it will determine new parameters based on inputs from the various engine sensors. The car should run fine and the re-calibration process will proceed in the background. |
