Repair procedures

Adjustment

1.	Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.

2.	Remove the lower crash pad. (Refer to Body - "Crash Pad")

Confirm the gap between stop lamp switch and bracket.

Stop lamp clearance (A) : 1.0 - 2.0 mm (0.04 - 0.08 in.)

4.	If the gap between stop lamp switch and bracket is not 1.0-2.0 mm (0.04-0.08 in), check the mounting clip and other part of around stop lamp.

5.	If there is normal, remove the stop lamp switch and then install again.

Inspection

1. Fuse Inspection

Mount the test fuse to the switch fuse and relay fuse part to confirm a normal joint fit.

2. GDS Data Analysis

Analyze GDS data and confirm if there is anything wrong with the stop lamp switch.

(1)	Connect the GDS to the self-diagnosis connector.

(2)	Turn the spark switch on

(3)	Step on the brake pedal.

(4)

Inspect the "brake switch" category that displays the "sensor data" GDS.

Normal waveform : The pressure sensor signal value will change according to the brake ON/OFF switch.

3. Inspection of Connector by Each Part

Check to see whether or not each connector has been damaged, or terminal surge, or incomplete connection has taken place

[Engine Room Junction Box]

[ABS / VDC Control Module]

4. Inspect the Stop Lamp Circuit

Connect probe to each terminal wire and confirm oscilloscope waveform.

Removal

1.	Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.

2.	Remove the lower crash pad. (Refer to Body - "Crash Pad")

3.	Disconnect the stop lamp switch connector (A).

4.	Pull the locking plate (A) as indicated by the arrow.

5.	Turn stop lamp switch 45° counterclockwise and remove it.

Inspect a removed stop lamp switch along the below procedures.

(1)

Confirm a normal connection with terminal part

–	Confirmation can be made to see if the connector has been secured properly and if a connection mark is present.

Installation

1.	Insert fully the stop lamp switch as hiding contact part.

2.	After inserting, turn the stop switch 45° clockwise, and then assemble locking plate (A) by pushing.

Confirm the gap between stop lamp switch.

Stop lamp clearance (A) : 1.0 - 2.0 mm (0.04 - 0.08 in.)

•	If the gap between stop lamp switch and bracket is not 1.0-2.0mm (0.04-0.08in), perform the above process again.

4.	Connect the stop lamp switch connector (A).

5.	Install the lower crash pad. (Refer to Body - "Crash Pad")

Hyundai Elantra (CN7) 2021-2024 Owner's Manual: Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance

The wheels on your vehicle were aligned and balanced carefully at the factory to give you the longest tire life and best overall performance. In most cases, you will not need to have your wheels aligned again. However, if you notice unusual tire wear or your vehicle pulling one way or the other, the alignment may need to be reset. If you notice your vehicle vibrating when driving on a smoo..
