Hyundai Santa Fe (DM): Head Lamps. Repair procedures

Hyundai Santa Fe DM 2013-2018 Service Manual / Body Electrical System / Lighting System / Head Lamps. Repair procedures

Inspection

Check-points upon head lamp failure (HID)

(1)	Check the battery voltage. (Low beam will be on when the battery voltage above 9V.)

(2)	Check the fuse and relay.

(3)	Check the polarity of ballast. (If the polarity are changed, low beam doesn't lighten)

(4)	Check the bulb connector securely.

(5)	Visually bulb checking (no filament): damaged glass, damaged for upper parts and lower parts of glass tube.

(6)	After (1)~(5), replace the ballast and the ignitor. (ballast assembly).

Service procedure and warning (HID)

No.

Warning

Remarks

Replacement of lamp assembly

1.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp.

2.	Remove and replace the lamp assembly.

3.	Connect the power connector after removing the front bumper cover.

•	Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage.

•	Other description is the same as the halogen bulbs.

Replacement of the Bulb

1.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp. (head lamp, turn signal, head lamp leveling device)

2.	Remove the lamp assembly.

3.	Remove the ballast and dust cover.

4.	Remove the bulb socket and replace the bulb.

5.	Installation is the reverse of removal.

•	Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage.

•	Be careful not to damage the bulb and use genuine bulbs only.

•	Do not apply excessive force and fit it correctly.

Replacement of the Ballast (with built-in ignitor)

1.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp.

2.	Remove the lamp and then the ballast and the dust cover.

3.	Remove the head lamp leveling device and then the bulb socket.

4.	Connect the bulb socket on the replacement ballast and install the leveling device.

5.	Installation is the reverse of removal.

•	Disconnect the head lamp power connector to avoid high voltage.

•	Replace the ballast only and install the used lamp.

•	Replace the sub assembly except the ballast.

Others

1.	Power supply should be according to the rated capacity.

2.	Use the rated fuse and wire.

3.	Bulb socket shall be free from moisture or dirt.

4.	Do not apply the ballast severe shock, water, or extreme

•	All parts should be serviced only at specified service centers.

•	HID lamp should not be installed on other cars (Dangerous, fire may occur.)

HID lamp shall not be used on other cars.(Fire may occur.)

Fire may occur when HID lamp initially lights due to the fact that arc-discharge generates high voltage (max. 30,000V) and high current (12-13A), and are different from the halogen lamp specification.

Characteristic

1.	Durable for vibration as there is no filament.

2.	HID lamp had a more long life than halogen lamp.

3.	Does not operate if polarity is changed.

4.	Operating input voltage : 9-16V

Removal

Head lamps become very hot during use; do not touch them or any attaching hardware immediately after they have been turned off.

The headlamp bulb should not be removed from the headlamp assembly until just before a new bulb is installed.

Removing bulb for an extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb performance.

Contaminants may enter the headlamp assembly where they can settle on the lens and reflector.

Never turn on the head lamps with the bulb removed from the headlamp assembly.

1.	Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

2.	Remove the front bumper cover.

Loosen the mounting bolts (3EA) of head lamp. Remove the head lamp assembly (B) after disconnecting the lamp connectors (A).

Take care that retaining clip (A) is not to be damaged.

Installation

1.	Install the head lamp bulbs.

2.	Reassemble the head lamp bulb covers.

3.	Reassemble the head lamp assembly after connecting the lamp connector.

Replacement

Bulb (HID)

1.	Turn the head lamp switch off.

2.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp.

3.	Remove the dust cap.

4.	Remove the ignitor clip from the lamp assembly.

5.	Disconnect the ignitor connector.

6.	Remove the ignitor and bulb (A).

Installation is the reverse of removal.

Turn the head lamp switch off to avoid high voltage

Be careful not to damage the bulb and use genuine bulbs only

•	Do not apply excessive force and fit it correctly.

•	Confirm the bulb locking

Bulb (high/low)

1.	Turn the head lamp switch off.

2.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp.

3.	Remove the dust cap.

4.	Turn the connector (A) counterclockwise and then remove it. Remove the head lamp low beam bulb (B) after disconnecting the connector (A) from the bulb.

5.	Remove the head lamp high beam bulb (B) after disconnecting the connector (A) from the bulb.

6.	Installation is the reverse of removal.

Turn signal lamp

1.	Turn the head lamp switch off.

2.	Remove the bulb socket (A) and bulb (B) from the lamp assembly.

Ballast

1.	Turn the head lamp switch off.

2.	Disconnect the power connector from the lamp.

3.	Remove the head lamp assembly.

4.	Remove the ballast (A) after loosening the screws (4EA).

Installation is the reverse of removal.

•	Turn the head lamp switch off to avoid high voltage.

•	HID lamp shall not be used on other cars.(Fire may occur.)

•	Fire may occur when HID lamp initially lights due to the fact that arc-discharge generates high voltage (max. 20,000V) and high current (12-13A), and are different from the halogen lamp specification.

•	Install the dust cover after confirming the locking state between bulb and bulb holder.

•	When testing the HID head lamp, turn the power on or off with switch between power supply and lamp because of high voltage.

•	Do not operate the head lamp switch with the bulb not installed, because it generates spark momently.

Adjustment

Head Lamp Aiming Instructions

The head lamps should be aimed with the proper beam-setting equipment, and in accordance with the equipment manufacturer's instructions.

If there are any regulations pertinent to the aiming of head lamps in the area where the vehicle is to be used, adjust so as to meet those requirements.

Alternately turn the adjusting gear to adjust the head lamp aiming. If beam-setting equipment is not available, proceed as follows :

1.	Inflate the tires to the specified pressure and remove any loads from the vehicle except the driver, spare tire, and tools.

2.	The vehicle should be placed on a flat floor.

3.	Draw vertical lines (Vertical lines passing through respective head lamp centers) and a horizontal line (Horizontal line passing through center of head lamps) on the screen.

4.	With the head lamp and battery in normal condition, aim the head lamps so the brightest portion falls on the vertical lines. A : Vertical (Low/High)

Head Lamp And Fog Lamp Aiming Point

General Type (VOR)

A.	Turn the low beam on without driver aboard.

B.	The cut-off line should be projected in the allowable range (shaded region) shown in the picture.

C.	If head lamp leveling device is equipped, adjust the head lamp leveling device switch with 0 positions.

2.	Turn the front fog lamp on with driver seated in the vehicle. The cut-off line should be projected in the allowable range shown in the picture.
