Hyundai Trajet Fault Codes

About the Trajet

Manufactured by the South Korean motor company Hyundai, the Trajet was a multi-purpose vehicle capable of seating up to seven passengers.

Lasting just 9 years, the Trajet reportedly takes its name from the French word meaning to ‘journey,’ that is, to travel from one point to another.

Sharing a platform with the Sonata and the Santa Fe, the Trajet had a high roof and long wheelbase with hinged doors rather than sliding (a style favored by a number of other minivans).

With three rows of seats, the front two could turn 180 degrees and rear seating could be turned into tables allowing for easy car picnicking for families, or to be used as a makeshift office.

Standard features included electric windows, a CD unit, sliding second-row seats, air conditioning, seat belt pre-tensioners, power steering with ABS and side airbags.

With an update taking place in 2004, the SE model received a DVD player, tinted windows, reversing parking sensors and a satellite navigation system.

A number of engine options were made available, three petrol variants, two 2-liter and a 2.7-liter, one petrol/LPG 2.7-liter and just one diesel, a 2-liter.

All of these could be mated to either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic.

For customers looking for alternatives to the Hyundai Trajet, there were several minivans available such as the Ford Galaxy, SEAT Alhambra, Vauxhall Zafira, Toyota Previa and the Kia Carens.

The Trajet can register some usual fault codes, these are:

• P0340 – Pointing to a problem with the camshaft position. It could be that the wires are corroded or the sensor is broken.
• P0230 – Classed as a generic code, this means that the fuel pump primary circuit had experienced a malfunction.
• P0030 – A problem with the engine’s primary oxygen sensor.
• P0123 – Ac ode that could be triggered by a number of problems and a mechanic should be consulted.
• P0705 – An input error from the engine control module.
