Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the ESP warning light and engine stalling issue you've experienced with your Hyundai Elantra. I am here to provide a deeper understanding and offer steps for addressing these issues.

ESP (Electronic Stability Program) Warning:

The ESP system in your car helps maintain stability and control in adverse driving conditions by adjusting engine power and applying brakes to individual wheels as necessary. When the ESP light illuminates on your dashboard, it signifies a potential issue within this system.

Common triggers for the ESP light include faulty wheel speed sensors, a malfunctioning steering angle sensor, or issues with other related components.

Utilizing a diagnostic scanner, such as the YOUCANIC full system scanner, to retrieve trouble codes from your vehicle's computer will help identify the exact cause of the ESP warning.
Engine Stalling:

The engine stalling might be a separate issue from the ESP light, and could be caused by various factors such as a faulty ignition coil, a clogged fuel filter, a failing sensor like the crankshaft position sensor, or vacuum leaks.
It's advisable to inspect for any other warning lights or messages on your dashboard, as these could provide additional insight into the stalling issue.

Troubleshooting Steps:

Diagnostic Scanning: Use a diagnostic scanner to retrieve any trouble codes from your car's computer. These codes will provide crucial information regarding the malfunctioning system or component.

Battery Check: Ensure that your battery is fully charged and the connections are clean and secure, as low battery voltage can sometimes trigger warning lights and affect vehicle performance.

Basic Inspection: Check for loose or disconnected wires, especially around the ignition system and other essential sensors. Ensure your fuel filter isn't clogged and the fuel pump is operating correctly.
While resolving such issues might require some automotive knowledge, these steps can guide you in identifying the problem. Should you feel comfortable, you may attempt to address simpler issues; otherwise, a local auto repair shop could assist in a more thorough diagnosis and repair.

Thank you once again for contacting us, and we hope these steps guide you towards resolving the issues with your vehicle.
