Are you assuming that your overdrive is not working? I have same problem, no indicator on dashboard to say overdrive is on or off and revs about 5000rpm at 70mph so I know overdrive is the problem. I will try to run a live feed to the one of the wires going to the overdrive switch. Does anyone know where fuse for O/D is??? Also clock flickers and interior ligh doesn't work if it's related????

I'm attempting the same thing in my Mother-In-Law's 1996 Hyundai Accent. I've found that you need to start by removing the ashtray to expose the 2 screws on either side of the ashtray (inside). Remove these screws, then gently pry the center dash away (some of the clips might spring, but you can replace these later.

That's as far as I have gotten so far. There seems to be another fastener someplace in the lower left portion of the center dash that holds it in place. I am working to get this removed, but to no avail.

This Might sound simple but it's a pig..... Good LUCK.

Remove the Ashtray, Remove the 2 screws in the ashtray compartment! Now you need to undo the heater control clips 2 under the drivers side then 1 behind the glovebox.(this took me 2 hours to find!!!!!!!!! Then slide center control unit out. You then have to undo the stereo retaining screws and slide the stero out.... You might have to take the cables off the clock and hazzard lights too. Replace in reverse order and hay presto you are done!!!! Shame I didnt have this info before starting!!!!! Oh well it's done now!!!!!!!!!!!!

I could not see the 2 clips until I removed the cover plate under the steering wheel. Once I could see the heater control cables it was obvious what was being said. I disconnected them and the one behind the glovebox and all proceeded as stated above.

I paid a mechanic to do it for me when buying the head unit, it took him an hour including installing two speakers because he had to remove the entire heating unit... so he says to take the stock CD player out and install the new one.

The fuel filter on a Hyundai excel is located behind and to the left of the manifold and air intake, its a small cylindrical object with two hoses attached to it, one on the bottom and one on the top. Its fairly simple to change it, providing you have a new and correct type of fuel filter to replace it with.

You'll need a socket wrench and a spanner, attach the spanner to the bottom bolt to prevent it from spinning while you take the socket wrench to the top bolt. Once you have the top bolt off, repeat for the bottom bolt, remove the filter from its bracket, and replace with the newer one, making sure you attach the top hose to the top part of the filter and the lower hose to the bottom part of the filter.

This process can be a pain if the bolts are done up REALLY tightly like they were on my '91 excel.

this is the year 2004 technology is high great debate has risen chances are great that the valvolive filter you have is not the highest quality a good filter is cheap insurance especially when you consider the cost to replace an engine upwards of 1/2 of original new car price. wix and napa gold are two favorites. MDofPerth: The Valvoline VO5 Oil Filter is suitable for most Hyundai Excels (and some other models such as Sonata) in the 1990s. There is a plastic service cover that partially hides the oil filter from access. Jackin gup the front right corner of the car and removing the three most visible bolts from that cover (then tilting the cover down) makes access to and draining of the old filter easier than reaching round the back. Don't forget to pre-fill the new filter with clean oil, and lubricate the rubber seal, before screwing the new filter into position (hand tight).

You didn't mention the year of your car, but from what I found (1993) the 1.6 in the Elantra firing order is 1-3-4-2. Hyundai has the service manuals on line. Click on the "Shop" tab, select your car from the drop-down menus and search away.

The reverse switch on a manual transmission Excel is on the transmission itself. Look for a two wire plug on the top of the tranmission when looking down from the top of the engine. Most automatic transmissions have a similar wiring plug.

The air intake temperature sender is located at the right hand side, back of the engine when looking from the front of the car. It is found screwed into the inlet manifold at the top of the engine. Disconnect wiring and unscrew sensor.

To remove the alternator, remove the top bolt that tensions the belt. Remove the wiring. One is a plug and the other is with a nut. The last thing is to undo the bottom nut from the side closest to the exhaust under the alternator. This bolt has to be totally removed by pulling it out from the belt side. The alternetor will then lift out. After you have done this once you should be able to change one in about half an hour maximum.

The orifice tube comes after the compressor for the AC and before the pipe goes into the dash. Look for a screw-apart junction in the metal AC line. Look for crimping on the pipe that is right next to that junction. That crimping keeps the orifice tube from sliding down the pipe. The orifice tube is about the size of a cigarette and acts like a filter and a spray opening to atomize the freon. You may be able to clean the old one, but a new one is pretty cheap. Make sure you get the right one, take the old one with you. Everyone will tell you that you have to change the dryer too, and need to pull a vacuum on the system. Those are good ideas but it will work okay just cleaning the orifice tube if it is clogged. One can of freon should get the compressor going. Get the stuff with the stop leak and oil.
