I have a 2000 hyundai accent manual transmission that blows the ecu fuse 1 when driving. It will sputter through shifting. Need help figuring what is wrong?

I had the same problem with a 95. My problem began when the heat shield for the manifold fell and melted some wires that are controlled my the ECU. Another place to look is the rear oxygen sensor. There is a plastic bracket holding the wires in place. If this breaks, the wires will drop and rest against the right axel. This will wear the protection sleeve away and expose the wires to create a short.

Hi there,
I have exactly the same problem and in the last few days one of my lights have stopped working, i am a women and as you know we are useless when it comes to cars. I have changed the bulb and the fuse but it still does not work, all i can think is that there is a problem with the electrics.
I thought the noise was my fanbelt?
Please let me know if you find out. Thanks

#15 of 17 '08 Accent Heat Problems by sandman_6472

My daughters car has a problem when it gets real hot down here in South Florida and it happens on a irregular basis. The key fob won't open the doors and she must use the key to get in. And then the car won't start for a few minutes once she gets inside...very frustrating for her and if I take it into the dealer, if they can't duplicate the problem, they'll do nothing.
 
Will be getting the windows tinted soon and hopefully, that will solve the problem. But if anyone else has had a similar problem, please give me a holler! Thanks all.

I have one car where the fob needs to be "reset" every once in a while. I hadn't thought about it being heat related, but it could be. I know that I had to change batteries in the fob (which could have been heat affecting the batteries.
 
In any event, when my fob acts up and won't open the doors, I push and hold all three buttons on the fob to reset it and it works just fine again. You might try asking the dealer what you need to do to set the fob to work with the car (just as if you had to replace the fob and set the new one to match your car) and see if that gets you back on track.
 
I'm assuming that her car is one where you need to fob to start the car as well, and that the problem MAY simply be with the fob and not the car itself.

I also have a 99 Accent and when mine did that it was the alternator. Had it replaced and problem solved.
