Everybody loves the convenience of
0:02
remote start until it suddenly stops
0:04
working. If your Hyundai Santa Fe won't
0:06
start remotely, you're not alone. Let's
0:08
figure out what's going on. First, check
0:11
your car's doors. They all need to be
0:13
closed properly for remote start to
0:15
work. Even a slightly open door will
0:17
stop it. Next, make sure your hood is
0:19
shut tight. If it's open or even
0:21
unlatched, the remote start won't
0:23
activate for safety. Is your key fob
0:25
battery running low? A weak battery can
0:28
mess up the signal, so try swapping in a
0:30
new one. Also, remote start won't work
0:33
if your Hyundai isn't in park. Double
0:35
check your gear shift before trying
0:37
again. Check your fuel level, too. If
0:40
you're low on gas, the system might not
0:42
let you start the engine remotely. And
0:44
finally, look for any warning lights on
0:47
the dashboard. Things like the check
0:49
engine light can block remote start for
0:51
safety reasons. If you've tried all
0:53
these and it's still not working, it
0:56
might be time to call your Hyundai
0:57
dealer. So, before you get frustrated,
1:00
check these simple fixes. Chances are
1:02
your Santa Fe's remote start just needs
