#110 of 139 Re: XM Radio Not Ready Message SOLVED [rnewton86] by smolderin Mar 05, 2009 (7:55 pm)
Replying to: rnewton86 (Mar 05, 2009 11:13 am) My issue was there since I got the car. I bought it slightly used (8600 miles ~ 6 months old).    Did the message come up out of the blue, while you were an XM subscriber? Or is it possible that the SDAR module might be programmed to go brain dead after a long period of no XM subscription?    I'm just curious, because my issue was there from the day I got the car. I'm hoping this is something they meant the radio to do.    Smolderin. Replies to this message: rnewton86 (Mar 21, 2009 2:59 am) smolderin (Mar 23, 2009 11:54 am)

Had the same problem day before yesterday after my 14 month old battery went dead (another issue that the dealer needs to deal with tomorrow). Thought it had to do with my recent renewal but the jumper did the trick. In my situation the XM went into ready after the load but no sound so turned the radio off/on again and it all came together.   Thanks for setting out clear instructions - worked perfectly!

Replying to: smolderin (Mar 05, 2009 7:55 pm) The message came up out of the blue while an XM subscriber.   My biggest concern is that the dealership didn't really attempt to look into the failure and pointed to XM right away. I explained to them that it wasn't my job to be the go between - I just want it fixed! They finally actually looked at the radio instead of their troubleshooting chart. 15 minutes later the problem was fixed. Replies to this message: smolderin (Mar 23, 2009 11:54 am)

Replying to: rnewton86 (Mar 21, 2009 2:59 am) I got the "Just call XM" suggestion a couple of times, but, it's obvious it won't work when you can't see the XM Radio ID #.   Fortunately, there was only one guy at the dealership that knew about this issue. The few times I had gone in (for other reasons), he was not there. After a couple of calls, I managed to get an idea of what to try from him, through one of the sales guys. I didn't know what to expect when I pulled out the jumper, but, I'm now up and running with XM. Even with a used car, XM signed me up with no-strings attached 3 months free. I didn't expect that...I told them it was a Certified Used Hyundai ( which it, in fact, is ) and they said I can have the 3 months free.   It's a bummer that the radio does this out of the blue.   Smolderin

Replying to: smolderin (Mar 05, 2009 9:42 am) Excellent work Smolderin!!!   XM was working perfectly up until for some reason I just kept my keys in the ignition which kept my lights on and drained my battery dead...ever since then I was getting the "Not Ready" message when trying to listen to the XM radio...Just pulled out the fuse for 10 seconds and pluged it back in and back to normal.
#116 of 139 2008 stereo questions....again! by majbach May 24, 2009 (9:27 pm)
I have a 2008 with the stock satellite stereo. I want to accomplish two things: 1) add a low profile powered sub 2) change out the rear speakers to something better sounding.   I am looking for advice on how a low profile sub is hooked up and how it can be acheived with this stereo.   I've never seen one of these self mounted floor subs. Are they separately powered? Can I splice into one of the speaker wires to send a signal to the sub? Can I hook it right into the the stereo unit itself? Are there RCA or dedicated sub outputs on the stock stereo unit?   For the rear speakers: What size are they? Does anyone know their sensitevity? Anyone changed theirs and found any improvements? How easy is removing the door panel?   Is there another Hyundai forum? I havent had much success getting answers here. Thanks a heap. Replies to this message: denvertrakker (May 26, 2009 8:07 am)

Replying to: majbach (May 24, 2009 9:27 pm) Adding a powered sub is fairly easy. You can buy a self-contained unit, with amplifier, or just a box and separate amplifier. Self-contained units usually have a speaker-level input that you can connect directly to the rear speakers. If you get a separate amplifier, you'll need a converter to drop speaker level down to "line level" that the amp's input can accept. These are reasonably inexpensive - do a Google search for "ALOC-60" and you'll find one under $30.   It's highly unlikely the OEM stereo will have sub outputs, though you'll find they are common on even the least expensive aftermarket units. OEM manufacturers don't add anything they don't have to - even pennies count.   The speakers, front and rear, are 6-1/2". They're actually not all that bad, although aftermarket units at or above the $100/pair level should sound better. I would think replacing the FRONTS rather than the rears would give you more bang for the buck, especially if you're adding a sub.
#118 of 139 Re: 2007 santa fe radio problems~not XM [shewetson] by jiminyintx Sep 18, 2009 (7:41 am)
Replying to: shewetson (Jul 19, 2007 7:27 pm) Just curious if you ever got your radio issue resolved. I too have a 2007 Santa Fe with the same problem. After two years, I am just now aware of it, as my son noticed the problem. Now that I am aware, it seems very obvious when it goes from stereo to mono. I brought my Santa Fe in yesterday for scheduled maintenance. They had not heard of the radio problem but are going to contact Hyundai to ask about it. I'm not getting my hopes up, and I have also read on other posts that having them replace the radio will not fix the problem.
