Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: New Power Steering Pump Worked For 5 Minutes


Jun 27, 2016

My power steering went out a few months ago. No warning, whining, or hiccups. Just stopped working. Installed a new pump today, and it worked great for about five minutes. Bled it out, put fluid in, etc. Took off on a test drive and a mile up the road I went to turn into a street and power steering was gone.

Fluid is still full, belt is still there, no visible leaks. 2004 3.5L V6.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Pump Pulley Broken

My Santa Fe has a broken power steering pump pulley. Darn thing broke right around the spindle! I can not find a replacement anywhere. I've tried to find a one new, used and at the upull lots (only one Santa Fe in at Pick n Pull dang thing was stripped clean!). The pump is easy to find but this pulley is a ghost!

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering - Pump Making Whine At Idle

I have a 01 santa fe 2.7 motor. I have read several threads in here regarding the famous pump whine. my pump is making a whine at idle, I have cleaned the bottle and made sure the screen has not restrictions, drained all the fluid, and have inspected the lines for leaks.

With a stethoscope have pin the noised to the pump, the noise travels in the reservoir when I race the engine the noise is more evident on the bottle. I am tempted to replace the pump, but the steering has no issues and operates fine, also no change in the whine noise when moving left to right.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: 2004 - Whining Noise From Power Steering Pump

I have a 04 santa fe , which slowly started whining which was diagnosed a power steering pump, when replaced the problem got worse and it became very hard to steer. Steering rack was the next diagnosis, replaced and another new pump. Now its so hard to steer and the whining has returned. Looking in the reservoir the fluid seems to be moving good with no bubbles??

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Pump Is Leaking Fluid Onto Serpentine And Timing Belts Causing Them To Swell

So I have multiple issues that all seem to stem from a power steering leak. According to the dealership, the PS pump is leaking fluid onto the serpentine and timing belts causing them to swell. This in turn has something to do with the AC compressor not working but they wouldn't give me details. When I looked at the clutch wheels on the AC compressor, there seems to be a good amount of rust in between the two wheels. I can't say that I trust the dealership because the original owner was bought out by a larger group that is known to just say "replace everything". I usually do most of my own work on my 95 Tacoma, so I'm no stranger to import v6 motors.

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Power Steering Pump Noise When Very Cold

When I started engine, I heard the high pitched squealing noise for 10~30 seconds. The noise was from the power steering pump. The noise changed by turning steering wheel. I did drain & refill 4 times with Preston dino base PSF & turkey baster. Next week cold day, the same noise was still there, so did drain & refill 5 times again with Preston PSF, but the same noise again.

A week ago, 3rd refill was with MaxLife Dex/Merc ATF that I had in my garage, more than 1 liter drained & refilled. Today at -15 C(=5 F), the noise came back for 5~10 seconds. I feel MaxLife(synthetic base) is better than Preston(dino base), but still several seconds noise make me worry about my power steering system.

Am I the only one hear the noise? Is this noise the start of the pump failure? Is this normal for the extreme cold winter?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Fuel Pump - No Power

2001 Santa Fe. 4 Cylinder

It has spark, it will run briefly with starting fluid.
The camshaft, crankshaft, fuel pump and TPS are all good.
All fuses are good.
The fuel pump relay is good.
The FP relay gets power to both the control side and the FP power in side.
If I jump the FP power side of the relay it will get 12v pump to the FP connector.
NO power to the FP cutout switch by the master cylinder.

So, how can the relay be good and the FP get power if I jump the relay but not have power when I put the relay back in? Is the ECU cutting it out as soon as it gets a signal from the relay?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: 2004 Won't Start - No Power At The Fuel Pump

Santa fe 2.7litre 2004 240000km... My santa fe won't start, after check we found no power at the fuel pump. we change pump, we found a bad contact at the remote starter connection. we decide to cut the wires of remote starter. after the car start and ride 1 day, stop with check engine, towing

We take off the remote starter and disconnect all wire of this remote starter. The car start and stop. After that bizarre problem, the park light stay open, and the window can be up and don't with no key in the ignition!!!!

We check fuse relay etc, all wire of the old remote starter and we take off battery and rebuilt the ground. We still have the same problem; when we tried to start at acc, everything seam normal but the wipers run at off position and when we turn the key for starting , wiper stop , radio close.

Like we have a ground problem. We change the ignition little baril now we think the computer is maybe dead. I double check all remote starter wire and every thing seem ok !!!!!

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Won't Working

I am having a power steering problem with my 2006 santa fe, been going on for a couple weeks and I am stumped on what is wrong with it, what I noticed is turning to the left or right and very hard to turn and sometimes it will be fine and other times its the left or right.. What could be going on here? there is no leaks or noises noted, it has 242,000 kms on it. fluid is full but a little brown and smells a bit burnt. I know it will need a flush but would that be the solution or would it be something else?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Gives Off A Steady Whine

I've got what seems to be a fairly common problem in that my power steering on my 2001 SF gives off a steady whine. I've read in several posts that removing the power steering reservoir and either replacing it or cleaning out the screen solves the problem. I'm ready to give that a shot, but can't seem to figure out how to remove the part. There is a "tab" type of thing on the back of it, but it doesn't seem to do the trick. I'm admittedly no mechanic, but this seems like it should be relatively easy. How to remove the reservoir?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Fluid Disappearing

I have very good question. My 2001 Santa Fe has 200k miles, I think the car is great. Regular maintenance, and the car drives still drives strong and comfortable.

Here is my problem: The power steering fluid is disappearing. There is no puddle under the car, I got under the car and everything is dry. However about once a week (+/- 200 miles) I have to add power steering fluid. I have cleaned the reservoir twice and confirmed that the top of the reservoir is also dry ( so is not bubbling off the top of the reservoir).

I have put newspapers under the car while parked overnight to see if there is a leak and the news paper is dry in the morning without a stain.

Fluids do not disappear. Could it be leaking while driving (high pressure hose) and its leaking from a location that I cannot see? Where is the "banjo connector" that I have heard referred to ?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Return Line Replacement

I have a 2003 Santa Fe that had a corroded leaking power steering return line. I want to replace both the high pressure and the low pressure lines coming from the steering box. The high pressure removed quite easily. I cannot get the low pressure out. Everything is broken free. Is there a trick to this? I want to see how it comes out so I can put the new one in same way.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Fluid Slow Leak

2004 XG350 with the Sigma engine, 133,xxx miles.

In the picture I attached, the large silver bolt is leaking. Its a slow leak: yesterday morning I wiped it off, and then we I got home from work there was a bead of power steering fluid, but not enough to drip.

What is the best way to fix this? Is it as simple as tightening it?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Smoke In Engine Bay - Might Be Power Steering Leak

Going up my driveway (its kinda steep) after 4 or 5 inches of fresh snow fall- smoke in the engine bay and inside the car. Its a 2003, Santa Fe with the big V6. Driving on level ground it doesn't smoke. I thought it must be the 4WD which I guess only kicks in when needed, driveway hadn't been snow blown yet. Saw a couple dots of red in the snow afterward. Didn't notice it before. But on the way to work tonight (same day) the power steering was not a 100%. The reservoir is down, right on the minimum mark. So now I'm thinking I have a leak and the smoke is from the PS fluid hitting the exhaust. Though why it only smokes in my driveway beats me. It looks as though the exhaust on this engine (big V6) is directly underneath the pump. I think I can verify it tomorrow. Would a PS leak in the vicinity of the pump fall onto the exhaust? Think this is the smoking gun? I can't even see the pump. But the manual says its on the left/rear.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: AC / Power Steering Belt Squealing Intermittently

The AC/power steering belt in my 2004 Santa Fe, 2.4L has intermittently squealed for some time, but lately the squeal has gotten louder. Initially it only happened when the compressor was on, but now it happens when the compressor is off. I have not experienced a loss in steering power but I did notice that the power steering fluid appears to be discolored. I have replaced the belt and re-tensioned it several times hoping this would solve the issue, but it hasn't. I intend to take the belt off again and see if the pulleys all spin freely. When I replaced the belt initially, everything did spin freely. My guess is that the power steering pump may be shot and is putting excessive load on the belt, however, there is no PS pump "whine" and again, no loss of power steering. It looks like I should also check for separated pulleys.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Fails In The Rain Or When Driving Through Puddles

I have been experiencing an intermittent problem with the power steering on my 2002 Santa Fe. It seems to happen in the rain or when driving through puddles...the power steering seems to lock up for a short period, usually lasting only seconds. It has only been a nuisance so far, but it could be a major safety issue if it happens at the wrong time.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Power Steering Leak - Wetness Is Closer To The Firewall

My 2001 Santa Fe had a slow PS leak for over a year which I dealt with just by adding fluid several times a year. Then I let the car sit for a few months while I saved up for input/output sensors. I just replaced those and discovered that the PS leak is noticeably worse.

I searched the forums and found that the most common problem is a clogged reservoir screen, resulting in fluid backup that sprays the engine bay. I don't think that's the problem. The engine bay is dry and both reservoir hoses are dry. The spot where I've found the most wetness is closer to the firewall and much lower than the reservoir but I need identifying it.
