Scheme 2: Removal & Installation
  1. Disconnect the battery negative cable from the battery and then wait for at least 30 seconds.
  2. Turn the steering wheel so that the front wheels can face straight ahead.
  3. Remove the airbag module. (Refer to " «DRIVER AIRBAG (DAB) MODULE AND CLOCK SPRING»(/hyundai/santa-fe/iii-2012-2016/remont/airbag/#airbag-modules-clock-spring) ")
  4. Disconnect the connector & lock nut (A) and then remove the steering wheel by using special service tools (09561-11001). Tightening torque: 44.1 ~ 49.0N.m (4.5 ~ 5.0 kgf.m, 32.5 ~ 36.2lb-ft) NOTE: Do not hammer on the steering wheel to remove it; it may damage the steering column.
  5. Installation is the reverse of the removal.

  1. Loosen the screw and then remove the lower cover (A) from the steering wheel body.
  2. Disconnect the steering wheel remote switch connector (A).
  3. Remove the steering wheel remote switch (A) and (B).
  4. Installation is the reverse of the removal.

Scheme 13: Removal
  1. Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative (-) battery cable.
  2. Remove the crash pad lower panel. (Refer to " «CRASH PAD LOWER PANEL»(/hyundai/santa-fe/iii-2012-2016/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#crash-pad) ")
  3. Remove the crash pad side switch assembly (A) after loosening the screws.

Scheme 14

Scheme 14: Inspection
  1. Measure a resistance of NTC (Negative temperature coefficient) and Heated pad. NTC (Negative temperature coefficient) resistance (Black/Yellow, Black) - 10.0 kohms ± 10% (25°C) Heated pad resistance (Yellow, Black) - 1.6 ~ 2.0 ohms ± 10%
  2. Measure a temperature. The temperature of wheel surface grip must rise from -20°C to 20°C within 6 minute The temperature of wheel surface grip must keep 38°C ± 4°C after 25 minute At that time switch on, all measure point (1~8)

Scheme 15: Components Location

Flex Steer is system to choose the three modes power steering depending on driver preference or driving conditions.

Information

  1. Display on the cluster but power steering is would not changed while operating the steering wheel.

As a safety measures, mode is changed automatically when steering wheel operation is done.

  1. Be sure to carefully change the mode while driving.
  2. Electronic Power Steering (MDPS) is not working due to the failure, "flex steer" is may not work.

Scheme 16

Scheme 16: How To Operate
  1. First input: Display the current mode for 4 seconds on the cluster.
  2. Add input: Mode is changed sequentially.
  3. Three steering modes: COMFORT: For the elder and the female drivers: it is mainly used for city driving and stop & parking, and a little lighter power steering. NORMAL: Basic mode SPORT: It is mainly used for highway driving, and a little heavy power steering.

Scheme 18: Replacement
  1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
  2. Remove the driver airbag module. (Refer to " «DRIVER AIRBAG (DAB) MODULE AND CLOCK SPRING»(/hyundai/santa-fe/iii-2012-2016/remont/airbag/#airbag-modules-clock-spring) ")
  3. Remove the steering wheel. (Refer to «Removal»(/hyundai/santa-fe/iii-2012-2016/remont/steering-column/#steering-wheel) .
  4. Disengage the steering wheel remote control switch assembly. (Refer to " «AUDIO REMOTE CONTROL»(/hyundai/santa-fe/iii-2012-2016/remont/entertainment-systems/#audio-system) ")
  5. Remove the remote control switch (A) and (B).
  6. Install in the reverse order of removal.

Scheme 19: Inspection
  1. Check the audio remote control switch (A) for resistance between terminals in each switch position. Switch Connector terminal Resistance (±5%) Cancel 2-7 180 ohms SET (-) 2-7 550 ohms Resume (+) 2-7 330 ohms Cruise 2-7 880 ohms Flex Steer 2-7 5.54 kohms
