#44 of 75 Antenna amplifier by johnc Feb 11, 2009 (8:19 am)
Have a 2004 Santa Fe with loss of radio (Monsoon) reception in AM mode. Twice previously I had the dealer correct (under warranty). The fix was to replace the glass amplifier under the drivers side rear window (the antenna is located in this window). There could and probably is a loose wire on the amplifier or the ground connection (dealer stated). Question... How does one remove the inside panel under the window without causing any damage? Are special tools needed? Is there a trick? I need detailed instructions and a few prayers. JohnC
#45 of 75 08 Hyundai Santa Fe BAD Radio!! by betsyh2os Feb 17, 2009 (7:55 pm)
I love the way the car drives and it's comfy BUT the radio is horrible. Hyundai put out a service bulletin that there were 07 radios in the 08s and I got a replacement but it still stinks - I even went back to the dealer and drove another and it sounded the same. I have been referred to the rep for the dealership so we shall see - he has yet to return my call. Also within 2 weeks the fuel pulsator went bad and within 3 mo the turn signal light was out - all fixed by warranty but still a PAIN!! The radio cuts in and out and sounds terrible. Thank goodness my kids only want to listen to The Wiggles and Raffi every time we're in the car. It just stinks when I want to listen to the radio ever!!!!!

Go to http://www.trucktrend.com/multimedia/photogallery/163_0808_2009_hyundai_santa_fe- /photo_18.html   for a photo of the 09 interior on the higher end model with nav - it does have an XM button. It says an improved audio system is on the new 09s and a USB/iPod input.

Those aren't 2009 photos though. They just used the old photos. My 2008 USA brochure shows the same Nav with XM button.   The 2009 non-Nav stereo head unit has it's blue screen as MUCH bigger than the '08. It's huge really. I've yet to find a Nav pic or see one in person so I'm not sure how that's changed.

Replying to: dirkpit222 (Jan 03, 2008 5:07 pm) The Santa Fe 09 models all are equiped with USB ports. I'm looking at a clearance 08 LTD model and the Infinity radio is identical. I can buy an iSimple kit from Peripheral Electronics for about $150 which will give me Ipod USB control from the radio and also provide HD radio channels. The dealer can also add the USB port - the radios are the same on the LTD - installed for from $300-$400 (negotiable at time of purchase).

Well, the head unit is certainly not the same. Very very different on the 2009.
#51 of 75 Hyundai Santa Fe radio problem - antenna??? by dogrobber Apr 03, 2009 (6:54 pm)
My radio does not get hardly any receprton, so I believe the antenna wire may be faulty or disconnected. Does anyone have an easy way to remove radio and/or get to window antenna junction to check it out? Thanks. Mine is a 2002 Sante Fe, and I've been usibg satellite radio rather than worrying about fixing the factory radio. Replies to this message: remag1234 (Jul 07, 2009 12:14 pm)
#52 of 75 6 disc cd player by eaglet Apr 11, 2009 (9:07 am)
I have just purchased an 09 Santa Fe & wonder if the random play option will play from all 6 cd's or only 1 at a time? I'm also curious if the door locks can be programmed so that all 4 doors unlock when put in park or only the driver's door as it is now?

Replying to: dogrobber (Apr 03, 2009 6:54 pm) I have a Santa Fe '03 LX and have had trouble with the AM from day one. It was a loose wire in the antenna amplifier located above the window antenna under the moulding. The wires were loose and it cleared up for a couple of years, when it happened again I pushed the wires in the amp and taped them. Recently the same thing started again. I removed the radio and plugged in a standard whip antenna, held it out the window and the radio played beautifully.......window antenna/amplifier must be the culprit[s]. A dealer quoted $289.83 for the amp [not installed] plus tax, thieving SOB's. I have 2 options: Option 1, replace with a different antenna which means drilling a hole in the roof, dropping the headliner, UGH! Option 2: Break the window with the antenna, call the insurance co. [I have glass insurance] and have them replace window, antenna and amp .
