Probably a problem with the ignition coils or the ignition module. Probably something a mechanic will have to take a look at.

how about checking the key switch or ignition coils or checking that all wires are pluged also check your starter. most of the time the solenoid dies on them and ppl think the stater is still good but thats a typical problem

Maintenance & Repair
I have a 2002 Hyundai Accent 1.6L. I just changed the rear drums, shoes, and all of the springs. When I move the car, I can hear a noise that sounds like a spring popping. Also, my parking brake lifts up a lot more than before, but it still works. I put all of the springs on correctly, the shoes are on the right side, and the adjuster is on correctly. I did have trouble putting on the drum and had to adjust it quite a bit. I checked the rotation of the wheel and it lagged nicely. I’m not sure what this spring noise could be or if it’s normal for new springs. If you have any ideas about what the noise could be, it would be helpful. 7 Answers
