2007-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe: Had a P0024 code and replaced VVT solenoid, check engine still on

Sat, 28 May 2022 10:29:44 -0700

I have a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe SE AWD (V6 3.5L) and the check engine light (P0024 camshaft on bank 2) came one, the car won’t accelerate when it’s in drive (when in park or in reverse the car accelerates/revs up just fine). I got my Engine VVT solenoid replaced and the car ran well. The next morning I go to start my car up and the same issue came up with the car not wanting to accelerate. I’m wondering what other issue could be the cause of this if not a bad solenoid. Any help/input on what to do next?

Why do the electrical appliances of the car burn regularly, such as the lamp, the water level of the salt glass, the high key

My car is a 2009 model and there are many problems with the electrical parts.

Like the lamp in the room

Front and rear lamps

2007-2012 Hyundai Santa Fe: 2008 Santa Fe died putting car into drive. All power now lost.

Fri, 18 Jan 2019 09:07:18 -0700

The car has been making a grinding noise on start and while running in park. I put a new starter in (but the noise continued). I investigated online and found it was probably the ignition switch. Before I could install the new switch, the car died after starting, backing up and then (attempted to) put it in drive. The car has lost all power and is stuck in neutral. The windows will not roll up or down and the engine will not turn over when I try to start. I put a new ignition switch in but that did not help the car start. However, I now get the “dinging” noise when the key is in the ignition. Still no power to windows or radio and the car is dead. The windows are still stuck down and the car remains in neutral. I can’t put it in park. I can put it in drive (with the key turned to the “on” position) … but that doesn’t do anything to help the car start or to get the shifter back to park. When I put my foot on the brake, the dinging stops. The dinging also stops when the key is removed (which is difficult to remove). Also, I’m getting dash lights showing the driver door is open (when the door is actually open) … but that’s all. I’m going to install a neutral safety switch (ie., “range sensor”) tomorrow. I rechecked the starter and it’s good. I have no idea what’s going on. Once the car starts again … I still need to know what’s causing the weird grinding/whining noise. All belts are good. Alternator is good. Battery is new. Right now … I just need it to start and run …. then I can figure out what the noise is (gringing/whining).
