Having some issues randomly in the car, the dome lights/headlights are pulsating. Like the power isn't there. I have LED's connecting the battery, so I am thinking it might be a problem with the ground on teh battery. I know I can eliminate everything but the LED ground.
View 5 RepliesI just finished installing my interior leds from Diode Dynamics. I am having one small problem. The dome lights and map lights stay on very faintly. The weird part is had to get a new led board for the dome light and I put back in one of my stock bulbs and all the leds are off but once I put the second led in the dome area the leds have faint light look again. I have a sunroof so I have the dual lights.
View 6 RepliesI've been trying to figure out why the dome interior lights are not lighting up when a door is open, etc. The only time those lights come on is when i physically push the light in. I thought it could have been a fuse, however, I replaced the 10 amp room LP fuse, but still nothing.
View 5 RepliesGot a weird pulsating feeling right through the accelerator when I get to 40 through 45 mph. Tires are new (245/40/18) with approx 2K mikes on them. I guess I have two things to do rotate and balance or just balance. Hope it's nothing to do with the larger tires and messing up something in the car.
View 6 RepliesI replaced the standard bulbs with LEDs and noticed that even when they should be off, they remain lit ever so slightly. So I put back the old ones. This can't be common.
View 22 RepliesSo I recently installed interior LEDs and noticed the other night that the dome and maps are slightly lit up when the car is on, they aren't fully on but you can tell that they are slightly lit up, when I press the button obviously they turn on fully but then go back to being slightly lit after I try to turn them off.
If I switch my map button to "off" then they are pitch black, but if it's on "door" then they are ever so slightly lit up.
It doesn't bother me at all as I hardly notice it and doesn't obstruct my view, but I want to make sure that it won't cause any harm down the road.
When car is off, or map light button is set to "off" then map lights are turned off completely, if car is on or map light set to "door" then map lights are so slightly lit up as well as the dome light in the back. Not sure if bad just curious.
Just purchased the 2012 GLS this past Saturday and everything is good except for one thing. My dome light even in the "door" position stays on after starting the car and driving. I have to manually switch it to off to turn the interior light off, which is annoying. I called the dealership today and they had no prior experience with that problem. BTW, I did have a sunroof installed.
View 4 RepliesI have a 2009 Sonata GLS with about 45,000 miles on it. Lately when I am driving over 50mph it has been making a very annoying, high pitched humming noise. The noise seems to pulsate on and off. If I am going in a straight line, the noise is present, pulsing steadily. If I turn right, the noise speeds up and gets louder. If I turn left, the noise slows down or goes away completely. The noise is not super loud yet, but it is driving me crazy.
I took it into the dealership and they said it was a tire problem - one is worn more than the others (though not so much that it needs to be replaced yet)
From what I have been reading online, it sounds to me like it's a wheel bearing problem, and possibly the worn tire is a symptom of that problem. However I have also read that the average wheel bearing should last about 100,000 miles with proper maintenance. If it is a wheel bearing, it should be covered under warranty, shouldn't it?
I recently bought a 2007 Sonata V6, and the brakes pulsate (when applied) at highway speeds, so I am looking to replace the front rotors & pads. I have been told that the OEM rotors/pads aren't great & that as a result many owners have a brake pulsating/vibration issue.
View 9 RepliesI have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata GLS and my fog lights wont turn on with the HIDs installed but they turn on with my regular halogen bulbs? I installed HIDs on the low beam headlight and they work perfect with the computer warning and anti-flicker. when i installed the fog light HID kit on my fog lights, they just make a quick flicker for like 1 second then they turn off. I have switched ballast, reconnected wires, and thought of switching polarities. Haven't done that yet because power is reaching the bulb.
View 20 RepliesDuring a motor swap the battery was out and was also replaced with a new battery but now the ABS and TC lights are on.
No code in the ECU. 2011 Sonata 2.4L.
I read that pulling the fuse will reset them but I don't see the fuses being labeled with 'ABS'. Which fuse controls the ABS and TC?
I found ESR along with several ECU but nothing that jumps out at me.
JUst installed Xenon Supply HID fog lights and Low beams with separate relay harnesses.
My HID low beams look great and everything works fine but...
my HID fogs dont turn off, even if the cars off, keys out of the ignition and the the fog light switch on the steering column is in the off position.
I recently had an oil return hose for my turbo and my head gasket replaced. When I picked up my 2011 Sonata 2.0T, the ABS and ESC lights were on all the time. The steering wheel is also tilted towards the right. Could this be related to the repairs or is it likely, like the dealer service department says, that the sensor went bad and it's just a coincidence that it happened at the same time as the repair? When they checked it, I was told that the left front sensor is bad.
View 2 RepliesHave a 2011 Sonatas. Recently the interior lights won't turn off or dim and go off when the door closes.
View 9 RepliesI have a 2011 Sonata GLS2.4 and I facing the following situation:
Everything started with the traction light coming on intermittent, then I notice that the cruise control can be activated but CANNOT be set (sometimes it gets set) and now along that the airbag light is on permanently. I put a scanner which said the computer is in good shape, and I was told an special scanner is needed in order to detect what is going on.
I've been lowered on coils for the past 6 months. I have been running aftermarket wheels since day one. I switched wheels out and lowered a little in the front. Drove it yesterday morning at 10am,and all three lights came on. Stopped turned the car off and turned it back on and all the lights went away. Drove the car at 6pm and the lights came on. Stopped turned off and on and the lights are gone. Don't know whats going on . The cables that I believe are the abs/ speed sensors are fine no rubbing on the passenger side the wire circled looked like it was at a weird angle but idk. Drove it this morning and no lights. No clue whats going on.
View 3 Replies2011 Sonata- Both the gear indicator light on the dashboard and the gear indicator lights at the gear shift suddently stopped working. No way to tell what gear without any lights. Is this a fuse type problem perhaps?
View 10 RepliesIm new to the site and i was wondering would i need a HID wiring harness with the fog lights like i would the headlights(low beam)?
View 7 RepliesMy son parked the car and I noticed the brake lights were on. After depressing and releasing the pedal a few times the lights go off, then 2 or 3 seconds later, they're back on even when the pedal is released. This happened all of a sudden. I'll pull the switch in the morning and test it, but what else could it be but the switch, right?
View 1 RepliesAll the interior white lights that come on when the doors are opened started pulsating today. It's a very rapid pulsing that's pretty rhythmic and constant not like what I would expect from a short. What might cause this?
View 16 RepliesI got the aftermarket lights through Yefeng, with quad HIDS. So after a while, Cluster lights, Vanity mirror lights, tail lights, cabin roof lights all started to flicker or strobe faintly. Very noticeable either when lights are on or off, drive or park.
Car has less than 12k miles.
I've been driving it like that with no problems. Except one morning before I left to work, car wouldn't start. (Happened randomly) Battery is good, alternator is good. Could something be pulling power from the alternator? I have no clue.
