It can be broken baring wheel on waterpump,you can change pupm, belts tensioners. Or it can be hidro valve- which engine oil do you use. Use not 5w30-its too thin ,better use 5w40 or 10w40. Zoran Vrgec, Osijek, Croatia

What are the fault codes you have? Is the check engine light blinking while driving?

Throttle position sensor could be the problem
Emmission control parts
You mentioned idler cable
Well there may be a second idler control cable
Some vehicles come with a double cable adjustment
The second adjustment is right above the gas pedal
Turning screw
Alternator giving out not producing charge needed
But overall if your cars idle bogs down the likely culprit is your ac bout to go out
The bearings in compressor wear out so it pulls more on the engine
In turn bringing rpm's down
Your car needs routine maintenance
Ac is an expensive repair so i suggest bypass belt till you can pay to have it fixed

If it's manual transmission then bump start it. You may find that simply putting it in gear and pushing it a little will wake the starter up.

Now you have to start the wiring from the motherboard to have the wiring run correct. Easy fix. Junkyard should have a light for your car.

Check your solenoid

take it to auto zone and have the fault codes read for free come back with the revealed faults

Starter motor.

That sounds like a timing/ cooling system issue. The coolant sensor would adjust the timing etc. Your tech would have to scan the car & check the live readings (HOT & COLD) & check the emissions. Put all the pieces together & solve the puzzle

Do you have a check engine light on? If not there is no problem in the system.

Does the motor crank (starter engaged and turning the motor)? If it does not crank, do you hear the solenoid clicking (engaging the starter gear into the flywheel teeth)?

should be in the owners manual http://justgivemethedamnmanual.com/hyundai/2004-hyundai-accent-owners-manual

Open the glove compartment, unlock the latches and replace the filter

Hi Jc, A fully charged battery is 12.6. The link below is a short youtube video on how to find out if a car battery has a power drain, The video starts with the guy loosening the negative lead to the battery then turns the multimeter on and sets it to 20 DC, plug bottom of lead to current mode and places 1 multimeter lead on top of the terminal inside the negative lead and the other multimeter lead on the negative lead and wiggle the negative lead off the battery, The current being drawn from your battery should be less than (5.0) 50 mille volts..... The reason he takes the negative lead off after connecting the multimeter this is to save any codes from the car as technically the battery isn't disconnected.....CHEERS.. How to Find Car Battery Drain

Some imports require the entire light assembly to be removed in order to replace headlamps. Look to see if there are angled rods on the back side of the light assembly. If so, see if the can be pulled straight up towards the hood of the car. When they are released the headlight will be able to come forward. Good luck. Hope this helps.

In the passenger compartment relay box under the dash just left of the steering column.

Sounds like an internal cluster issue.

hook up scanner ck for codes ck fuses and relay

If moving the steering wheel back and forth does not allow you to turn the key then the switch has had it and needs to be replaced.
