SOURCE: check engine light and how to diagnois and reset 1999 Hyundai Sonata
I had same problem and my repair shop just replaced a sensor in the tranny. Said it was a defect by Hyundai,but they won't recall it.
SOURCE: I have a 2000 hyundai Sonata, 6 cylinder eng. My
The sensor is located on the left hand rear side of the block (near the bell housing). It is held in place by a 10mm bolt. It's to the right of the exhaust manifold (LH - radiator side) on the V6. Once you purchase the new sensor you'll be able to identify it on the engine. The connector to this sensor is located in the illustration.
A word to the wise... replace the O2 snsr as well.

"Fuel system too lean at idle". It's an air/fuel ratio that is not correct, possibly a vacuum leak somewhere. Or a leaky exhaust pipe. Could be related to intake manifold gasket. Somewhere, air is getting into the engine.
I suggest taking it back to the dealer under warranty. I think Hyundai is 10yr./100k for the original owner. 5yr./50k if not. Ask first if covered, and ask why not id not covered.

Purge Control Valve Problem
The "Purge Control Solenoid Valve" is the "Purge Control Valve".
Rough
idle is a typical symptom of something amiss with the purge control
portion of the evaporative emissions system. It could be the valve
itself is not operating correctly, the evap canister (vapor canister)
may be leaking, or full of raw gas instead of vapor, or maybe even the
purge control valve is getting a faulty signal from the ECU.
The
soleniod is checked by applying a voltage to it and checking to see if
it closes, or opens (I'm not sure if its un-energized state is normally
open, or normally closed). If the valve is bad it is a no-brainer to
replace.
The vapor canister can be removed and checked to see if
it is full of raw gas (not supposed to be), but checking it for leaks is
a bit involved, and probably requires equipmet not normally owned by a
home mechanic. Vapor canister failure on cars with a lot of
miles is common. Replacement is the fix.
Of course if the ECU is
not sending a purge signal to the valve correctly, figuring out why may
proove difficult, and possibilities could even include a faulty ECU. I
expect this is unlikely though.
It's a $20 part. I first would change pcv valve because it can give same error if it's plugged up. You can always remove it and shake it. It should rattle around real easy. If not, it should be repalced
