To locate and change the (4) spark plugs on a 2004 Hyundai 2.4L 4 cylinder engine:
Remove the (4) 12mm bolts from the decorative plastic engine cover. Remove plastic cover from engine and place it off to the side out of your way.
Standing in front of the car, the (4) spark plugs are located laterally (left to right) in the recessed area underneath where the plastic engine cover was removed.
Note: This engine has (2) coils....They are located above spark plugs number (2) and (3) from left to right.
Starting with the fist spark plug on the left: Remove the spark plug cable by pulling straight up on the insulated connector. Using a spark plug socket, remove the old spark plug and install a new one in it's place.
To access the second spark plug from the left, remove the electrical connector and the spark plug cable wire from coil number (1) and then remove the (2) 12mm bolts that secure the coil to the engine. Spark plug number (2) is located directly under the coil. Lift the coil straight up removing the insulated connector from spark plug number (2). Using a spark plug socket, remove old spark and install a new one in it's place.
Repeat same procedures for spark plugs number (3) and (4).
Note: If you have the (6) cylinder engine, the front (3) sparks pluge are readilly accessible but in order to access the (3) rear spark plugs, you will have to remove the intake manifold.

usually the distributor MODULE
they are renound for this sort of drama
get the wiring checked aswell as it may be due to faulty charging & causing computor errors [I hope you didnt short out the battery when you changed it!!!! ]

SOURCE: how to change the sparks plugs on a 2005

No you do not need to change or replace a head gasket. changing plugs it very easy, Its not that hard, I recommend in the near future if you planning to work on your own vehicle is to go pick up a Haynes auto repair manuel at any auto part store pertaining to your vehicle and it will give you step by step with picture all the info's needed to do the job correctly. you going to need ratchet with deep socket or spark plugs socket set with long extension to remove the plugs. You going have to remove the engine cover to get to the plugs. if V6, its going to be a bit of pain more plugs, counter clock wise to remove and clock wise to tighten. Just don't toque the plug too tight, when replacing the plugs make sure you hand screw new plug using the wrench extension to hand tight the plug first so you don't mess up the thread of the engine head. If you need more advice while doing the job, don't be afraid to ask your neighbor, 99% they them self have change spark plugs at one time or another. good luck....hope that help some

I have 2001 sonata that I was driving perty hard and red lined it then it just died and now I'm not getting no spark why

Do you have power at the coil? The crank sensor fires the plugs so it may have failed. Check to see if you set any codes.
Here's a good forum...

How to test ignition coil on 2005 hyundai sonata

I'd take a spark plug out...connect its plug wire to it...lay the plug on something metal and crank engine while watching spark gap and see if you have a nice spark.
Thats the easiest test...

Hope this helps...

Code P0320 on 2005 Hyundai Sonata. How to make sure it is the sensor ignition misfire causing the problem? Could it be something else?

first and foremost check your spark plugs if it has'nt been done in a while. next, check your wires if any or your coil packs for wear or corrosion.

Change sparks plugs on 06 hyundai sonata v6

You didn't specify whether you have the (4) cylinder or the (6) cylinder engine..... I have a 2004 Hyundai Sonata 2.4L 4 cylinder and I just changed the spark plugs in it. I believe that the 2005 2.4L engine is the same. To locate and change the (4) spark plugs on a 2004 Hyundai 2.4L 4 cylinder engine: Remove the (4) 12mm bolts from the decorative plastic engine cover. Remove plastic cover from engine and place it off to the side out of your way. Standing in front of the car, the (4) spark plugs are located laterally (left to right) in the recessed area underneath where the plastic engine cover was removed. Note: This engine has (2) coils....They are located above spark plugs number (2) and (3) from left to right. Starting with the fist spark plug on the left: Remove the spark plug cable by pulling straight up on the insulated connector. Using a spark plug socket, remove the old spark plug and install a new one in it's place. To access the second spark plug from the left, remove the electrical connector and the spark plug cable wire from coil number (1) and then remove the (2) 12mm bolts that secure the coil to the engine. Spark plug number (2) is located directly under the coil. Lift the coil straight up removing the insulated connector from spark plug number (2).
