My Swap went perfect with no modifications at all.YES your CEL with remain on and should display a CODE P1613 which is MIL REQUEST SIGNAL CIRCUT HIGH INPUT.
Also Cant locate TCM which is your Automatic Computer.Then if you install the TCM back in the code will then read P1611 which means MIL REQUEST SIGNAL CIRCUT LOW INPUT.
YOUR CEL will always remain on but its not a big deal.Just purchase an OBD2 scan Tool and you can check for CEL periodically to see if there are any codes!!! THAT WHAT I DO!!

 

there has to be a way to get that CEL off, i could not deal with the CEL always being on

 

Here's what I can remember:

Manual transmission (duh)
Shifter mechanism
shift cables
clutch master cylinder, etc
flywheel
clutch
pressure plate
driver's side tranny mount

2uniq u know u could just call up a junkyard and offer to trade them an AUto ECU for a Manual ECU they should take it cuz they get both the Auto ECU and TCU from ur Auto

I tried all this already!! smile.gif

 

that makes no sense UR ECU must remember it has been on an auto or something to keep throwing the CEL, or the manual equipped tibs have a loop in the wiring already to fool it

 

Viper!!
I do have the ECU from a manuel and the CEL will always remain on.But i have been told the Manuel and Auto are the same.I tried plugging in the TCU and the light still remains on!!
Im just use to mine so its no biggy.the good thing is thats its an 5Speed

 

2 UNIQ-Can you still acquire the complete set of parts for the manual swap? I've been trying to save up some cash for this. If you can, I'm real interested and looking to do the swap within a month.

 

all of this is fine and dandy,

the toughest questions to answer are..

1. does the speedo gear in the auto trans mate to the new manual trans?

2. if it does not, how do we fix this problem? and do we have to replace the guage cluster to fix this problem if it exists to begin with.?

3. what are the model and year hyundais that i can get a manual trans that will be a direct bolt-in fit to my 1999 elantra 2.0L ?

( i once did an auto to manual swap in a 1994 nissan sentra, and all i had to do was swap the gear in the speedo cable, then it went right into the manual trans, so i'm curious as to exactly how to go about doing it with this elantra )
