Open the hood and prop it up with the support rod. Disconnect the connector from the ignition coil, as shown in the video. Unscrew the ignition coil bracket using an 11 mm socket wrench.

Remove the ignition coil from the spark plug housing and install the new part in the same location, ensuring you hear a "click" indicating that the coil is properly seated. Tighten the fasteners with the same 11 mm socket wrench.

Torque them to 11 lb-ft. Reconnect the connector to the ignition coil and close the hood.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
