2006 Santa Fe occasionally won't start

Asked by notyackl Mar 30, 2015 at 01:52 PM about the 2006 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.7L GLS AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2006 Santa Fe sometimes won't start sometimes will start all day long. When it won't start there is a single click coming from engine compartment. I have replaced the battery and as soon as I put jumper cables on it, it starts right up no problem. Any ideas?

Also, follow all the ground wires in the engine compartment and take them apart, clean them and reconnect them tightly
