I cannot emphasize enough about how HELPFUL your video was. I have a Hyundai tuscon 2017. The right low beam headlight would turn off randomly. At first for a minute, then eventually for an hour at a time . I was afraid of getting a ticket. So I checked the two fuses that supposedly related but they were good. A cheap $7 fuse tester from auto zone is something I recommend always having for any newer vehicle. I watched this video and went straight to the back connector to the headlight apparatus and bulb. It was not screwed on all the way. The moment I tightened it about 1 inch. The light came on…, it was slightly loose!!!!! This saved me a mechanic fee and possibly being taken advantage of.. thank you
Thank you for sharing! I have a 2017 Hyundai Sonata I’ve been having problems with these headlights and brake lights for quite awhile. I always change them but this time a few days ago my headlight on the drivers side went out, I took the bulb out it wasn’t burned out so I bought another bulb it didn’t work, so now I’m furious and getting upset. My uncle sent me your video and I’m going to take these steps. I’ll keep you informed.
THANK YOU! I had to think outside the box and find your car. Same issue with a Mazda 6 2016. Took out my high and low on 1 side. Was about to go buy a reply. The problem wasn't the wires but it was a Chinese LED upgrade. Short out the bulbs, swap the light, and do what you said. Worked, just need to swap out 1 bulb and save me hundreds or thousands.
Just fixed it. My issue was the cap on the car wasn’t tightly closed. I turned car on while that one side of the headlight wasn’t working. Kept car running, opened hood & opened cap to inspect light & reclosed the cap tightly. Light just came on by itself after that. All good now. Thanks for video!
Still fighting with my 2019 Elantra with similar problems. I really think you stumbled onto the the fix but it doesn't seem like you are 100% sure of exactly how you got there. I, on the other hand, am ready to put a toggle switch on the dashboard and forget the whole OEM wiring mess..
I never had a problem again after the fix. Another thing to keep in mind if u drive uber or at night often your bulb has hrs. On the other hand when installing the bulb connector must lock in the slot if not the bulb will die
I take out old blub on right low beam from my 2015 Hyundai Sonata and I just put attempted new blub to work on right low beam it's didn't work twice ..I brought new bulbs 8-20 dollars . I even unplug on blub for left beam and i was about to switch to make sure and I realized blub have light itself on for without plug on it when I turn on light . I realized it's smart junction box fuse problem and there recall on it
Yes I was able to fix my problem. So first I check if the bulbs is good from there I check the ground wire that the connector go to frame. If that was loose it a problem. I tighten it more but my main problem was my connector wire was so tight no slack when put it place. I test it by taking it out of it place leave it out and the light turn on. So from there I pulled on the wire that was clip in place let it loose a bit then I loosened the 2 wire apart and once I put it back in place make sure it sit in place tight. That was my problem.
@@wlane2384 how about you man? Did you figure it out? The driver side on my veloster (low beams) doesn’t seem to work but the high beams on both side do. Lmk
Great video, but you need a stabizer fir your phone, this my hurt some peop'e with impaired vision, and then if you just made it shirted and focused on how you esolved the issue, and what did your do fir tgat, that will be an awesome video to share. Anyways, thanks for sharing though
@@loijourney1219 So I put in new complete headlights compartment on both side they bot h came with signal lights py22w and side marker w5w were included . i purchased 9005 h7 myself. so you think replacing signal lights would do good.
Can someone help on my Hyundai Elantra 2016 when I turn on the headlights, the left one doesn’t work and the right directional Arrow inside the car is on doesn’t matter what I do. Also the right headlight and directional light don’t turn on
Please tell me that after you fixed your issue with your light, you steam cleaned that horrible dirty engine bay. its driving me nuts i just want to take an industrial wipe and wipe the plastics clean lol
There should be fuse box in side your car too and outside. It should tell u which one . If your not sure locate a few turn your key on position but don't start car. Then remove the fuse each one to identify which one is off and replace it . Also if your radio not working it could be u have a bad ground too or burn fuse. Hope this help
Idk what to do at this point . But i dont have a tester. And i changed the bulb once and it worked but it wont the next day. Bought a new 1 and now it just doesnt turn on.
Hi sorry u didn't catch it. The fix for my car was the light wire connector was closed together that somehow cos short. So I split the wire out like lose cos both wire were close and it was tight . That solve the problem.
Got a 2017 sonata both headlights went out (one one day and the other a few days later) Dash says to check headlights (low) I checked fuses I changed the headlights wtf please help 😂😂
Depending how often u drive at night and the hrs of the light it could be your light is out of it life. Time for new one. I drive at night alot so in a yrs and a half it done
Another reason to say No to this brand Stupid Changes that make No Sense !!! A fuse bar when a single item is affected ...Takes an engineer to really F things up .. Dumb.
Great video. only problem, You forgot to show how you fixed it. Lol
He did show you how he fixed it. The wiring was crimped and cleared up by testing with different bulbs and trail and error.

Exact same thing with me 2019 sonata
It's the connector itself you have to replace it cut the old one off and splice the new one in. They go bad in alot of the newer cars

Had issues with rear blinker lamps, turned out they used cheap contacts in bulb sockets, cleaned with electrical cleaner, they work fine now!!😲😲

Great information but need to minimize movement when video recording
Im going through this right now smh so annoying!
Would this work with fixing my high beams on my 2020 Elantra?
Can you clarify what you did? I am having issues with low beam on hyundai sonata 2014. Lights are good but left side doesn't work.
Same issue here. Were you able to get it fixed?
Yes I was able to fix my problem. So first I check if the bulbs is good from there I check the ground wire that the connector go to frame. If that was loose it a problem.

Any suggestions i have a 2015 hyundai sonata and my front signal lights flash with headlights off but will not flash with headlights on??
It seem like u need new signal light
@@loijourney1219 So I put in new complete headlights compartment on both side they bot h came with signal lights py22w and side marker w5w were included . i purchased 9005 h7 myself. so you think replacing signal lights would do good.
When your signal light keep flashing it mean one of the signals light is out.
@loijourney1219 thank you even if all 4 of them are lightning up??
A GREAT JOB !
I don’t think you know how you fixed it.
Can u show me how to fix it than that would be greatly appreciated ty
Same issue with my 2016. Needs a lawsuit or recall or something
There is recall for smart junction box
I cleaned my engine bay today.
Can someone help on my Hyundai Elantra 2016 when I turn on the headlights, the left one doesn’t work and the right directional Arrow inside the car is on doesn’t matter what I do. Also the right headlight and directional light don’t turn on
Did you ever end up fixing it?
@@kingperc6834 lol yea just change the bulb and it will be fine
Please tell me that after you fixed your issue with your light, you steam cleaned that horrible dirty engine bay. its driving me nuts i just want to take an industrial wipe and wipe the plastics clean lol
Ty yes I did clean it but Hyundai design is very bad dirt just keep coming back fash
Where did you buy your circuit tester? Is that pen device a circuit tester? Link please, and thank you.
U can buy Canadian tire or Walmart or homedepot
Would you know what guse is got my radio on a 2018 Hyundai accent
The manual says 20A but there are 5 or 6
*fuse
There should be fuse box in side your car too and outside. It should tell u which one . If your not sure locate a few turn your key on position but don't start car. Then remove the fuse each one to identify which one is off and replace it . Also if your radio not working it could be u have a bad ground too or burn fuse. Hope this help
So if I put the tester in the prongs and one side doesn’t light up what to do ?
Well first if wrong don't light up check for bad fuses and bad ground and check if the prong is damaged and along the line
Idk what to do at this point . But i dont have a tester. And i changed the bulb once and it worked but it wont the next day. Bought a new 1 and now it just doesnt turn on.
Your buld is not bad. Follow the light connector you have a bad ground around the light area
Read the post that other wrote about them find a lose screw
And what model is your car some car are known for that
@@loijourney1219 2018 hyundai sonata sel ive never had the issue till now 3yrs later after buyn
@@loijourney1219 well the frame casing is definitely loose cos that side of the car got damaged so it can some what move freely the whole casing
Why didn't you just tell the fix?????
Hi sorry u didn't catch it. The fix for my car was the light wire connector was closed together that somehow cos short. So I split the wire out like lose cos both wire were close and it was tight . That solve the problem.
Good job, any one know location of the headlight relay on Hyundai ix35. I have spent hours but couldn’t find it
no relay
works with ipm
Got a 2017 sonata both headlights went out (one one day and the other a few days later) Dash says to check headlights (low) I checked fuses I changed the headlights wtf please help 😂😂
Depending how often u drive at night and the hrs of the light it could be your light is out of it life. Time for new one. I drive at night alot so in a yrs and a half it done
Thank you!! Good job
You are not supposed to touch the bulb with your skin oils it will cause hot spots on the glass and burn out quicker!😲😲
Ok. You got power. Do you have a good ground on the circuit it self?
Wash your engine!
Dude was so confusing with his words
I have the same problem and still not resolve
I see that is very bad with Hyundai sonata alot of small problem
Another reason to say No to this brand Stupid Changes that make No Sense !!!
A fuse bar when a single item is affected ...Takes an engineer to really F things up ..
Dumb.
