In most 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe models, a block heater is not included as standard equipment; instead, it is an optional feature that drivers can choose to have installed at the time of purchase. If you decide to have a block heater installed in your Santa Fe, the exact location may vary depending on the technician who does the installation. The best way to locate your block heater, if your vehicle is equipped with one, is to follow the block heater cord and trace it back. Typically, you can find this cord to the right of the battery, identifiable by a black cable with three or four wires wrapped in rubber or plastic insulation. Once you have located where these wires connect, you have found your block heater.
In the Hyundai Santa Fe from 2017, the block heater can be found behind the front bumper on the passenger's side.
