Hi hope you have some luck with hyundai UK . We,ve just returned from 3 weeks in france _ with out our santa fe, trailer tent bikes ect. Auto gear box went on week 2. UK could not get act together to ship parts to france and authorise repair. £100,s pound in taxi to garage, bad uk customer service. Swift cove/axa have been saving grace to get loan car to get us home. Santa fe & gear arriving home in few weeks!!!!.

Hyundai waranty is not all it says - esp if you have a problem abroad!!

 You live and learn!!!  We still have 4 weeks of possible camping but no tent  or tow car!!!

Thanks for the replies everyone.

Just wish that Hyundai could have answered my questions but they are still as confused.  I had hoped that they would know what products they sell and how they should work.  On top of that, it would appear that those of us with a Santa Fe have differing set ups.  Surely if something is installed by Huyndai we should all be the same !!!!!

Anyway, I am waiting again for a reply from them (Hyundai) and will post what reply I get.

Tiberious - As I understand it, you need either and audible or visual indication to show that the indicators on your caravan are working correctly.  If you do not have a buzzer, a light on the dashboard should flash along with the normal indicator light.  Is that what you have ?. And finally, what dealer have you found that can fit a dedicated wiring loom.  Perhaps they can answer our questions before I go back to Hyundai........

Cheers

Well it gets more intersting as we go, I definatly do not have nay indication when turning, neither sound nor extra light. The dealer I found is towbar express Towbar Express

I must say that I dont like the audible sound when reversing, so may have to look at getting it sorted after a stern chat with my Hyundai dealer

You don't need an audible sound or an extra light. provided dashboard indicator light flashes at much faster speed to warn you when you have a bulb gone, this is legal. dedicated wiring looms normally do this.
