My 2005 hyundai avante ( elantra) keeps blinking
I mean when the engine is on and the car isnt moving the engine keeps blinking
I changed two of the four coils and the spark plugs and the car worked fine but after 2 days the problem is back again
I checked if there is any oil or lequids on the spark plugs but there is not also checked the car and no trouble was detected by the trouble shooting device
This problem is two years old and it is very annoying
Please tell me what could cause this and how to fix it
Thanks

1. Go to auto parts store
2. Tell them your check engine light is on
3. They will hook up scanner and tell you what the code is
4. They will either sell your the part for you to install
5. If you are unable to do this take to your friendly mechanic

I forgot to add check fuel pressure with a gauge which you may need an adapter so a mechanic will need to do that.

Fuel pressure is 5.7
But someone told me once that the normal range is 2.5 - 3.0
Does that effect the spark plugs and the coils?
Could it be the reason behind all this?

3.5 bar is normal if at 5.7 your fuel pressure regulator is probably sticking. And letting it go to high.

First of all, you are so kind for keeping up with me and thank you
Second of all, im so sorry about the last replay because I was talking about something else. The scanner reads that the fuel valves gives 5.7 instead of 2.5! I dont know 5.7 what
But before connecting the problem to the fuel path let me tell you another thing
When I change the coils and the spark plugs, the car runs normally for a short time before the same issue appears again
So should I run the fuel pressure test?

5.7 is to high I gave specs already, take this to alocal garage to get fixed you are not able to fix this yourself due to not knowing your way around a car. I have no further comments.
