2002 Hyundai Santa Fe charcoal canister malfunction temporary fix

[@hamiltonharper]

9:35 I literally ducked when the charcoal started falling out 😂

I have a 2001 Hyundai Accent GS 1.6L that had 40,000 miles. I too had trouble pumping gas into the car. I discovered the charcoal pebbles in the canister hose thanks to Gettin' Junk Done KZbin channel. I just took one end of the hose that had the charcoal pebbles in it loose. I vacuumed out the hose, put a screw driver into the hose that goes to the charcoal canister and stirred up more charcoal pebbles and vacuumed those out as well. I put some silicone grease on the fitting so that the hose would come off easier in the future. I had to vacuum out the charcoal pebbles several times, but I no longer have to do so. I have no problems with charcoal pebbles and have had no check engine lights. I do not detect any fuel smell because of the missing charcoal pebbles. If you want to replace the charcoal canister, you are looking at spending about $200+ for the canister.

Thank ‘s for the video, same problem with my 2004 Santa Fe 😎

[@thitran9637]

Thank you very much for the video. I worked on my wife's Santa Fe today that had the same issue. There were a lot of charcoal pebbles felt out. I used a vacuum in order to suck out more pebbles from the canister. If you work on this, wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from dust. Before the fix, we got gas at Costco yesterday and the pump kept shutting off, it was pretty annoying especially since there were many people waiting behind us.

[@StansAuto83]

I definitely understand that. Glad the video helped

[@alixandria7346]

Yup...lol I try to be patient 75 dollars filling it up stop n go...smh

[@StansAuto83]

$75 ouch 🤕 how often?

[@lynnbaker65]

What if you change the carbon canister and it still want take gas?

[@StansAuto83]

@lynnbaker65 there’s probably still charcoal in the lines and it would need to be blown out.

[@PARKWOODECHO]

Good video! I think I need a new evaporator canister vent valve and I didn't know it was inside that case. I will also now check that hose for loose charcoal. I had already replaced the purge valve in the engine compartment because the Santa Fe would not start after a fill up. That did the trick and fixed that problem but now a month or two later I get a code 455 gross leak / no flow. That is a tough fit under the Santa Fe without it being raised. I did the same thing today just looking around under there. You did it!

[@StansAuto83]

Thanks !

[@Rhondalevy14]

I am attempting to do this now. I still have to blow the charcoal out of the lines 😫 hoping after I do this I can drive it 2 more days until I can get a new canister. Thank you for this video!!

[@awesometopics1988]

Thanks alot for the video man it helped me, I have the same exact problem..plus I changed the purge valve 3 times..my car would stall when I filled it with gas .. changed a hose going to the purge valve now I have to change the charcoal canister or do what u did and fix whats going on maybe its closed..I'm gonna look now that u gave me the confidence to do it

[@smallfry8788]

Thanks man! Hope I can return the favor one day!😁

[@freakinme10]

Hey thanks for this video . I am having the same problem .

[@StansAuto83]

Your welcome

[@freakinme10]

What type of screen did you use ? Was it a metal screen or something like window screen ? It will be later next month before I can replace the canister so I need a quick fix . Thanks

[@freakinme10]

I am working on my 03 Santa Fe .

[@StansAuto83]

Window screen

[@freakinme10]

@@StansAuto83 Nice that's what I went with . The hose and the metal tube with the 10mm bracket where filled just like in your video . I am hoping that tomorrow I can fill it normally . Thanks for the video =)

[@alixandria7346]

Thankyou ... I'm having the same issue not being able to pump gas ... also is there any chance you can show me exactly where my Bank 1 02 Sensor Downstream is...please

[@StansAuto83]

It should be close to or on the exhaust manifold off the back of the block of the engine. Bank two should be after the catalytic converter.

[@TD31093]

Excellent video! Two questions: 1) could this cause a check engine light, or would that be the result of another issue? I coded P0171 & 0174, had the MAF replaced, & then the check engine light came on immediately after while refueling. So I don’t yet know if the codes are the same, or if this charcoal canister & subsequent lines are the issues. 2) I plan on doing this. Could you give me a list of all the tools you used? Thanks in advance & again, excellent video!

[@StansAuto83]

I can’t honestly remember what tools are used since I did this video a long while ago I did use a screen from old window as a temporary fix. The screen was used to keep the charcoal from coming out and clogging up the Vape line that runs to the tank, but I also had to in a sense, move the line around to get the charcoal to come out of it since it was backing up towards the tank. You can get a evap code, and the Yvette code can throw other codes because the innocence gas fumes that are coming from the tank are not making it to the engine to be burned off and the vehicle will notice like an event leak.

Thanks 🙏

Thank you it helps alot

Does the gas tank have to be low?

[@StansAuto83]

@@Kp-tz9gp no you don’t have to lower the gas tank

[@Kp-tz9gp]

@ sorry what i meant is can you do this with a full tank of gas? Or should u let the gas down some

[@StansAuto83]

@Kp-tz9gp it should be ok only vapors go through

[@StansAuto83]

@Kp-tz9gp your are welcome

[@slappy6036]

I have a 03 Santa Fe 3.5L. My lines from the fuel tank to the carbon canister are rusty and bad. Can I just use a rubber hose to connect those straight to the evap system?

[@StansAuto83]

Yes you can. Use rubber fuel line.

[@beezlbubba]

Does a clogged cannister also cause the motor to rev high?

[@StansAuto83]

Yes it can.

[@beezlbubba]

@@StansAuto83, thanks for that info! What a pain in the ass just to change the plugs and wires on my 2001! Had to take the intake manifold off just to access the rear bank of plugs! Now the middle coil is bad, part should be in now, but the cannister is next on my list. The car only has @75k on it. When it runs properly, it's a great car. 👍

[@ipledgeallegianceDUH]

Is this the same on a Santa Fe Limited? 6cyl. Engine

[@StansAuto83]

I believe so.

[@gamescape7758]

My moms canister broke and is dragging under the car. Doesn't seem to have any other problems. Think i can get away with just changing the box?

[@gamescape7758]

Also, pellets are spilling out

[@StansAuto83]

Yes get a new canister

[@gamescape7758]

Thanks!

[@link560633]

I Guess Christmas came early for us 😂😂

[@patriciocasillas1571]

can this cause more gas consumption?

[@StansAuto83]

Yes it make the engine work harder and the pump to run nonstop which over time will run the pump out and cause build up in the engine.

My hose adapter that connects to the vent frame is broken off.Do you have any suggestions?

No not sure. You may have to re run the line?

[@scottfree3089]

Any idea if it's in the same location in an 05?

[@StansAuto83]

As far as I know it should be around the same area

[@scottfree3089]

Thanks I appreciate you answering, was the Fe you worked on in the video spiting gas back out while filling the tank?

[@StansAuto83]

Yes And you had according to the customer pump it’s super slow and could not fill the tank up

Thanks again I'm having the same problem and have a guy repairing it

I wish I knew for sure because the mechanic said mine is located on top of the tank but idk for definite?

the same thing happened to my hyundai, a question..... do you think a canister presenting that has fuel problems? I mean, spend more fuel? do you think it's better to change the whole canister?

[@StansAuto83]

If it’s malfunctioning then yes

[@rushkinser5979]

Late reply but yes my fiance car is having this issue and guzzles gas now and I've cleaned it out 2 times this year so I'm gonna replace

[@Texasdope11]

My gas tank goes all across the truck I cant seem to locate the canister mine on 2002 Hyundai santa fe gls xl v6

[@StansAuto83]

It should be more up by the middle of the Fe

[@Texasdope11]

I ended up finding it thank you I'm sorry. My truck turned off on me the other day and it wont start. I was encountering the issue where I couldn't pump gas or when I would pump it would die. I ended up changing the evap purge valve. Now I'm going to be changing the charcoal canister. Would you recommend changing evap vent and if so is it in the same location as the charcoal canister? Can this cause issues where the truck cranks but does not turn on ? Thank you for your help

[@DesignBuildFixReview]

Did you acually do this without raising the rear of the car?

[@StansAuto83]

Yes I just crawled under it

[@JV-tk3nn]

Thanks for this video, Stan! I am having an issue when filling up the fuel tank of my '03 Santa Fe and a friend of mine told me about this charcoal canister thing. I could not believe it because I don't remember seeing anything like this on the pre-90's vehicles. It seems like more unnecessary junk to go bad and mess up other good parts. Do you know if this canister can be completely bypassed?

[@StansAuto83]

No but making sure that no charcoal can get in the vacuum line will keep it better

[@JV-tk3nn]

@@StansAuto83 Thanks again. I will be taking that into consideration.

[@33818ual]

If you ever have trouble with the gas pump clicking off while filling up your gas tank, get under your santafe and disconnect that hose to let out the charcole pebbles as many as you can and you'll be good for another 7 or 8 months.

[@StansAuto83]

Yep that’s right!

[@salsanjazz4388]

Great video, thanks! Got a code P0441. With what you did, would that possibly fix the failure? Tjx

[@StansAuto83]

It should till you can get a new one.

[@juansantiago4657]

It did not work for me. I still can't fill up gas more than cents at a time

[@StansAuto83]

Ok you may need to check the hole evap canister line to the actual fuel pump.

[@salsanjazz4388]

Thx

[@emmanuelgoldstein4371]

I just came across a KZbin channel where a Hyundai charcoal canister was cut open to expose the interior. He dumped all of the charcoal pellets out of the canister to expose the other end of the canister where the hose openings are. There was some foam to keep the charcoal pellets in the canister in front of the openings that had decayed allowing the charcoal pellets to enter the hose. I have to wonder why Hyundai used foam instead of was mesh screen that would not decay ? This should be a recall item IMO..... link = kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqOxpZ16lpKsjLssi=ZjiSS-CEFXpLA-bB

[@StansAuto83]

Yes it definitely should of been recalled. But it was the way to cut corners.

[@mcjhonz2646]

my canister is broken. because the two bolt is missing thats why my canister down the road while running.

[@u-5ee3zk1w]

F that, if I'm going to do all that work, I'm just going to put a new canister and vent valve in and not deal with it again.

Right the owner did not want to buy a new canister.
