Hey, recently had a similar issue with my 2009 Hyundai Elantra, and it indeed was the battery sensor microprocessor that was causing all the problems. The weak startup and flickering lights are telltale signs. It wasn't a freakishly huge problem, but 100% something you should get checked immediately to prevent any eventual bigger issues. In my case, they had to replace the sensor and do a bit of rewiring to fix it. Not complicated but certainly not minor either! Get it looked at by a mechanic you trust. Good luck!

Hey, cheers for the heads up! It's a relief to hear it's not something massively huge. But yeah, definitely better safe than sorry. If you don't mind me asking, do you remember roughly how much you had to fork out for the sensor replacement and the rewiring stuff? Also, since you got it fixed, have you noticed any other related issues cropping up? Thanks again!

Hey again! Yeah, glad I could be of some help. With regards to the cost, it ran up to about 315.00 € for the whole shebang – that's including the new battery sensor microprocessor and the rewiring job. Not exactly pocket change but hey, it's a small price for peace of mind, right? And to answer your second question - since getting the fix, I haven't noticed any more flickers or weak startups, the issue seems to be completely sorted. If anything, I'd say the ride's smoother than ever! Might be just me but even the fuel efficiency seems to have improved a smidge. So yeah, I'd say it's totally worth getting your Hyundai checked out ASAP. Cheers!

Wow, 315.00 € isn't small change but you're right, it's worth it for the peace of mind. If it even potentially improves fuel efficiency that's a win, isn't it? Thanks a ton for the assurance, and the concise info. Well, guess it's time for me to make a trip to my mechanic. Fingers crossed, the repair goes as smoothly as yours did. Cheers! You've been a big help.

Hei! Am un Hyundai Accent 2006, motor pe benzină, cu aproximativ 42.568 km la bord. În ultima vreme, am observat că luminile mele se întunecă sau pâlpâie și o baterie slabă la pornire. Mă gândesc că ar putea fi o eroare a senzorului bateriei vehiculului? Ultima dată când am avut o dramă, călătoria la mecanic nu a fost atât de ușoară. A mai pățit cineva asta? Dacă da, cum a fost timpul petrecut cu mecanicul? Noroc.
