If the ABS warning light remains illuminated on the instrument panel, which is the system that allows the wheels to brake without locking and thus skidding, it is likely that there is a fault with the control unit; to remove it, open the bonnet and locate the position of this unit, which is just behind the left front headlamp (driver's side), in front of the windscreen washer reservoir; then unscrew the mounting screws of the unit (which also integrates the solenoids for the pistons) and pull it away from its position to disconnect the respective connectors.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

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. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
