Frequently Asked Questions

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?

Verify the vehicle is safe to drive: listen for unusual noises and check instrument warnings or charging indicators.
Check the charging cable and charge port connection if you recently charged; loose or faulty connections can trigger faults.
Inspect basic 12V systems—battery condition and terminal connections—as low voltage can flag faults in EV control modules.
Bring your 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric to Nalley Hyundai for a quick scan; dealership diagnostics identify root causes and protect warranty coverage.
Addressing the issue early at our dealership can lower immediate repair costs and prevent expensive long-term damage.

How long does a check engine light service take?

Typical diagnostic scans take 30–60 minutes to retrieve codes and perform basic tests on an EV electrical system.
If repairs are simple—software reset, connector reseat, or 12V service—many jobs complete the same day.
Complex repairs involving the traction inverter, battery thermal system, or replacement parts may require longer; we’ll provide a clear timeline before work begins.
Choosing Nalley Hyundai speeds repair time: factory-trained technicians, on-site parts, and dealer tools reduce diagnosis-to-repair turnaround.

What does it mean when the check engine light comes on in a 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric?

It signals that an onboard control module detected a fault in electric powertrain, battery management, charging, or auxiliary systems.
Common triggers include charging faults, high-voltage battery thermal issues, inverter or motor faults, or 12V system problems.
Some issues are minor, but others can reduce range or cause further damage if ignored—diagnostics at a certified dealer are essential.
Repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership like Nalley Hyundai to maintain coverage and ensure genuine parts.

How much does a check engine light diagnostic cost for a 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric?

Diagnostics prices vary; initial OBD-II scans and inspection often fall in a modest range, but exact cost will be quoted after a brief assessment.
At Nalley Hyundai you’ll see immediate savings compared with many independent shops, thanks to efficient, accurate diagnostics that avoid unnecessary repairs.
Long-term savings come from correct repairs the first time and access to warranty-covered work when applicable—warranty repairs must be done at a certified dealership.
We provide transparent estimates and explain which repairs are urgent versus those that can wait, helping you manage cost and safety.

What is the most common reason for check engine light on a 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric?

Frequent causes include charging system errors, battery thermal management faults, and inverter or motor control module warnings unique to EVs.
12V accessory failures or sensor faults can also trigger the light even though the high-voltage system is fine.
Because EV issues can cascade, diagnostic scans at a dealership isolate the root cause and prevent unnecessary part replacements.
Addressing the issue at Nalley Hyundai protects warranty coverage and typically results in lower total repair costs over time.

2019 Hyundai Kona Electric Check Engine Light Flashing

A flashing check engine light on a 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric usually indicates a serious fault that can cause immediate damage or unsafe operation. In EVs this can signal a critical inverter or motor misfire, a severe high-voltage battery issue, or a major charging fault. If the light flashes, stop driving when safe and have the vehicle towed to Nalley Hyundai for inspection—continuing to drive risks damaging the inverter or battery, which can be far more costly than prompt dealer repair. Our factory-trained technicians perform thorough diagnostics, reducing the chance of misdiagnosis and delivering immediate and long-term savings. Warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid.

2019 Hyundai Kona Electric Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric should be done only after proper diagnosis. While an OBD-II tool can clear codes, the root issue often remains and the light will return. Our technicians use dealer-grade diagnostic tools to read EV-specific modules—battery management, inverter, and charging system—and resolve the underlying fault. Choosing Nalley Hyundai ensures genuine parts and factory procedures, protecting warranty coverage and preventing repeat visits. We often cost less than independent shops because accurate initial diagnostics prevent further damage and recurring repairs. For peace of mind and long-term savings, have resets and repairs completed at our certified service center.

2019 Hyundai Kona Electric Check Engine Light Codes

Common codes for the 2019 Hyundai Kona Electric fall into categories: high-voltage battery/charging faults, inverter/drive unit errors, thermal management warnings, and 12V system or sensor faults. Ignoring battery or thermal codes can reduce range and accelerate cell damage—battery repairs or replacements can range from several thousand dollars to much higher in extreme cases. Inverter or motor failures are also costly if left untreated. Addressing codes early at Nalley Hyundai lowers immediate repair costs and prevents cascading failures. We provide clear estimates, use genuine Hyundai parts, and perform warranty-covered repairs only at certified dealerships to ensure proper long-term performance.
