Um… yeah… I don't think I'm going to do all that. Auto shop here I come.
Thanks for the video, as I am the owner of a 2008 Hyundai Santé Fe and began experiencing gas odometer issues shortly after purchase. I am puzzled why this issue has not been recalled yet. I called the dealership and they quoted me $700 to replace. Thanks to your video, I will have my husband attempt to do this himself.
I did this job 2 days ago and it have secondary fuel sender sensor so I chain the one wit the fuel pump and still the gage muves so I chain the next one and problem solve
Nice video just next time bring wit you a oil bucket so you don't spill any gasoline on carpet or in the tool box
You the man! thanks for posting
About how long can I expect the gas smell to linger in the car after performing this job?
Hey, super helpful for sure. Where did you get your sender/pump ring tool and what is the part number? BTW the Reggae score is awesome! Helps prepare for quite the chore! Thanks again!!
I was wondering, the code that came up for my 2008 Santa fe was P0464 fuel level A cert kit enterment , firestone wants me to pay for a fuel pump also. in this video you managed to keep the same fuel pump, and change out the sensor.
thank u so much for u video i was able to fix my car n save alotta money cuss of u thanks again man
do you have to use any silicone to seal the access covers back on?
good info in the video (and good music) but man the shaky camera made me sick
Thanks for posting your video. It's a great resource/guide. I replaced both gas sensors/senders today on my 2008 Santa Fe without any surprises thanks to your video (also used a video by "Fishy" as a 2nd source and different point of view). In addition to using your video, here are a couple tips for others that are about to complete this repair: 1) After the rear seats are removed, you can easily pull back the carpet at the midway point and tie it to the front seats to hold it up. This will allow you a carpet-free work space. It’s much easier to wipe up spilled gas off metal rather than carpet. The carpet can easily be tucked back under the plastic with a flathead screwdriver once the job is complete. 2) I believe the black adhesive which holds down those two round covers also serve as a vapor seal to help prevent gas vapors escaping into the car cabin. Scrape away the old adhesive and apply a ring of flexible silicone sealant to the bottom of the covers when your job is done. Don’t forget to apply silicone to the opening of the rubber grommet where the wires exit to plug all wholes. Replacing the green o-ring will help too. 3) Don’t attempt this job without purchasing the “Fuel Tank Lock Ring Wrench – OTC 6599.” It’s expensive at $50+ on amazon but completely worth every penny. I had to apply grease to the lock rings when I was tightening them back as the fit was incredibly tight! 4) Take the opportunity to shampoo the carpet while the seats are removed. I finally got rid of that “mystery smell” which was probably spilled milk from our daughters….completely unreachable while the seats are installed. Good luck!
Thanks for posting this informative video! I'm tackling this next week on my 2008 Santa Fe….only has 60k miles too!
is a an explain video
On my 2008 Santa Fe, there were two different part numbers for the sender. I was initially told they are the same, but that was not the case.
On the Fuel Pump the part number is 94430-0W000
On the Non Fuel Pump the part number was 94460-0W000
So be careful you get the correct parts before you start.
Good overview video. Was able to change the part with no problem.
How are the fuel level sensors connected to the fuel pump? What do you have to do to remove and exchange them?
I purchased The 2 fuel level sensor, but after placing the first one on the driver's side I started the car the check engine light and the light on empty tank was gone, But next day just the check engine light came on ..do you think the check engine came on just because I didn't change the passenger's fuel sensor? Or it would be another problem..
