Have the coil tested.

Ignition Coil Resistance (Santa Fe 2.7L)

1. Disconnect ignition coil 4-pin connector. Measure primary coil resistance for cylinders No. 1 and 4 between connector terminals No. 2 (Green wire) and 3 (Green wire). Measure primary coil resistance for cylinders No. 2 and 5 between connector terminals No. 1 (Blue/Orange wire) and 3 (Green wire). Measure primary coil resistance for cylinders No. 3 and 6 between coil connector terminals No. 3 (Green wire) and 4 (Brown wire). See Fig. 9 .

See DIS IGNITION COIL RESISTANCE table. If resistance is not as specified, replace coil.

2. To check secondary coil resistance, disconnect spark plug wires. Measure resistance between high-voltage coil terminals No. 1 and 4, between terminals No. 2 and 5, and between terminals No. 3 and 6. See
Fig. 9. If resistance is not as specified, replace coil.
