2001 Hyundai and I have the same code and problem

I haven changed the fuel pump, crank and cam senors, ingnition coils, and the fuel pressure regulator is next. Now I still get the 1123 code and the 1128 as a pending code. The car is also overheating on the highway when I tried to pass someone but the temperature comes back to almost normal when I continue highway speed. After the fuel pressure regulator I have to check the evap system.

    this is what you must do. make sure that your radiator fun is working you must wait till the car is hot be for it come on for about 5 to 10 min if it doesn't come on your fun or your Coolant Temperature Sensor is bad and you must replace it.and that should take care of your problem. get back to me and let me know if i helped you.

Firstly, these codes are set when the fuel 'TRIMS' are out of spec (either tool LEAN - P1123, OR too RICH - P1128). The air/fuel control system, in addition to a number of sensors, includes the following components and systems: a. Intake air system. b. Exhaust system. c. Evaporative emissions control system (includes purge control solenoid valve). d. Fuel injectors. e. Fuel pressure regulator. f. Fuel pump. For the air/fuel ratio to be within limits, all of the sensors, components and systems associated with the air/fuel control system must function within normal parameters. STOP replacing parts/sensors unless you can VERIFY they are defective! The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on Hyundai OBD II vehicles (all 1996 and later models) can adjust the engine Air to Fuel (A/F) ratio to compensate for variations in operating conditions. This adjustment only takes place during "Closed Loop" operation. The PCM uses input from the following components to determine the amount of fuel to deliver:

  • Oxygen sensors
  • Air flow sensor
  • Coolant temperature sensor
  • Intake air temperature sensor
  • Throttle position sensor
  • Engine speed sensor
The ability to adjust the A/F ratio enables the PCM to compensate for engine, fuel and sensor variations as well as temperature, altitude and humidity. This enables the vehicle to maintain a stoichiometric (14.7 to 1) A/F ratio that will ensure optimal engine performance and minimal emissions. Since the PCM can change the A/F ratio to compensate for a wide range of conditions, an indicator is needed to identify that a compensation has been made. Fuel Trim values shown on the HDS scan tool are the primary indicator that an adjustment in fuel delivery has taken place. The scan tool displays the PCM's A/F ratio compensation as "Short Term" Fuel Trim (ST TRIM), Long Term Fuel Trim (LT TRIM), and "Oxygen Sensor" Trim (TRIM B1 S1 and B1 S2). The most beneficial diagnostic information comes from "Short Term" Fuel Trim and "Long Term" Fuel Trim. AFTER ALL THIS, I think it's simply your Coolant Temperature Sensor giving 'FALSE' information to the engine control module/powertrain control module (ECM/PCM).

02 chevy 4.3 1500 fuel pressure is 45psi new pump and coil and crank senor pump is 2 weeks old will not start

I have one question first how did you measure the fuel pressure at 45 psi it should be 66 psi .
I would take a good look at the in line fuel filter before I replaced anymore parts .
It should be on the frame rail some ware under the drivers door look for the lines from the pump

2001 Ford Taurus replaced fuel pump and filter. Engine turns but no crank. Inertia switch was down.. Turn key and hear pump makes running sounds.... No crank. Popped switch out..turned key and no sounds...

Could be a bad switch. Use a ohm meter to check each switch position. Use fuel pressure gauge to test for correct pressure. Use noid light to check for injector pulse. Check for ingnition spark.

I have a 01 four door Hyundai accent and it won't start what might be the problem

Does it turn over?when you turn key? if it does start looking to see if you are getting a spark at the coil,Than at the spark plug wires leading to spark plugs,,if you are getting spark get a pressure test done on the fuel pump, also have the fuel filter change,This vehecle probly has high mileage,Right? these are the things that accompany high miles

Got a 2001 Chevy blazer 4.3L cranks but does not start. got 62 psi at the fuel rail, replaced plugs and wires, got good spark at coil, replacing car and rotor! if the cam sensor or crank senor are bad...

Crank sensor is primarily for the spark and the cam sensor is for fuel management, crank/cam correlation for misfire purposes I would also change the wires.

Hi i have a 06 accent that will start and tick over but when you go to take off it looses power and chucks and cuts out and might take a half hour befor it will start up again , no engine warning light and...

Check the fuel pressure, fuel pump (which is inside the fuel tank), fuel pressure solenoid (if fitted) and fuel pressure regulator (if fitted). Check and replace the fuel filter and check the injector flow rates in case you have clogged or faulty injectors.. I would lean towards a fuel supply issue here so look at the fuel filter and fuel pump first..
