Users of the Hyundai Santa Fe have not reported any common issues or complaints with the radio system. However, there may be instances when the radio malfunctions. If this occurs, a simple troubleshooting step is to check that the radio is powered on. If it is, try turning the car off and then back on to reset the radio unit. If the issue persists, check the fuses in the fuse panel located below the driver's side dashboard. If all fuses are intact, consider performing a full reset of the radio unit, although this will result in the loss of stored data. To reset the radio, locate the power button and press and hold it for 10 seconds. The reset is successful if the unit powers off and then back on.

I own a 2017 Santa Fe Sport and needed to update the Blue Link software. However, the update couldn't finish, and now my display screen is blank with no radio or any other features showing. I'm not getting much assistance from Blue Link. What should I do next?

I'm having an issue with my car radio where every time I start the car, a message in Korean pops up on the radio screen, and then after 2 minutes, it turns off and back on again. This keeps happening consistently. Any idea what's causing this and what steps should I take to address it?

I couldn't reset the radio controls on my 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe using the usual methods, so I experimented with different buttons until I found a solution. To reset the controls successfully, turn on the car without starting the engine. Press and hold the Radio button located at the top left and the power knob simultaneously for 10 seconds. This action restored all controls, including those on the steering wheel, to full functionality.

I own a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe SE. I fixed my radio by replacing the radio fuse found under the steering wheel panel. I also disconnected the positive battery post for 20 minutes, reconnected it, and held down the radio power button to reset it. I almost spent $500, thinking something was wrong with my radio system, but it turned out there was actually nothing wrong.

Arthur experienced a similar situation recently. Initially, the rearview camera malfunctioned, followed by the head unit becoming unresponsive the next day. Checks showed the fuses were okay, and there was power supply to the relevant wires. I ruled out an electrical problem. I had to purchase a replacement head unit from the dealer for $700 Canadian dollars in hopes that it would resolve the issue.
