Hyundai Wireless Charging Pad FAILURE - Easy FIX

[@stephaniemyers2409]

I found the fuse remover! I have a 2022 Kona SEL. The fuse remover is inside the engine fuse box. Push the clips on both side to remove the fuse cover. Thw fuse remover is a white plastic clip with tongs. It's clicked in so you'll have to pull it out of the holder. Thank you so much for posting this video. The instructions were really easy to follow! ❤

[@ya472]

Thank you. Your comment will help several people.

[@Rinzin-10]

Thank you so much for the comment. It helped me pull my fuses easily👍

[@eddiebo924]

YES! This is the winner! I have a 2022 Kona EV that had the same issue with the wireless charging pad. I figured I'd give this a try. I pulled #5, waited, popped it in. No luck. I then pulled #2, waited, popped it back in and, same result, nothing. Then the 10A (15A in my car) and it worked like a champ! Started the car, popped in my phone and before the orange light even showed up the phone was charging. And more importantly. . . This procedure allowed me to get my digital key setup and working. THANK YOU!

[@ya472]

Awesome. It works for EVs too! Thanks for the additional information. It will be helpful to many others.

[@ricantinfla8530]

Could you explain better what were the fuses you disconnected? I tried but I can't solve the problem. thank you

[@jamesrichardson231]

I've had the Kona Highlander for a year and the charger stopped working this week. Your fix worked. Thanks very much from Australia.

[@ya472]

Wow. A worldwide solution. Thank you for posting such a positive comment, and glad this worked for you.

[@georgelewis8707]

Thanks for the video. It actually worked on my wife's 2022 Kona. Saved me a trip to the dealer. FYI... There's another fuse box under the hood. That's where the little tool is to remove the fuses.

[@ya472]

Appreciate when one of my videos is helpful. Yes, I later found out the tool is under the hood. lol THX However, I haven't checked to make sure it is. I was looking at my sales invoice the other day, and realized I was charged $150 for mudguards I never received. grrrrrrr Oh well. 🙂

[@georgelewis8707]

@@ya472 great. Good luck!

[@ya472]

I actually took out the fuse tool to check fuses, do not remember why, but that little plastic wasn't gripping too well, so I will likely use needle nose pliers from now on, if they are handy.

[@andrey8276]

Hi.Great job. You save my time.

[@flyin18t]

I found a similar solution online (via Reddit I believe) and it mentioned to pull some fuses, but I think it was a different combo. I followed your instructions, except I pulled Module 2, Module 5, and Memory module all at the same time. Let the car sit for a few minutes then plugged them back in. Started the car and the wireless charging option magically reappeared. Haven't been able to use my digital keys in about a year! Thank you so much for this!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ya472]

The joy is having it work again, without putting up with Dealer nonsense and fees. ;-) You are welcome. Thank you for adding a positive experience.

[@wojciechpiekarz5923]

in my 2020 Kona I have this option, it is checked, but this charging is not stable. It disconnects (probably because the phone is heating up) and I never know how long it will work. By the way - do you know the parameters of this charger?

[@jr8565]

Had the standard Kona 4 weeks and this happened, 2nd technique with the module 5 and memory worked for me too, Saved me a trip to the dealership, Legend!

[@ya472]

Awesome. Thank you for the comment. 2nd technique? I will have to watch my own video again. lol I have 15,000km on my 2022 N-line and it is awesome. I am using the adaptive cruise control in town to see how high I can get my gas mileage right now. Love my little Kona, as it is about may 201st personal vehicle, and the most fun. (around 36 Imperial mpg - Canada)

[@KR-good]

Thank you so much!! I've had the Kona for several months and the charging pad has never worked. Gave this fuse thing a try and it worked like a charm!

[@ya472]

Thank you for adding your successful comment. When something does not work, it is upsetting, especially when Dealerships are clueless about such a simple solution.

[@HarrissTom]

Thanks! Tried this on 2022 Kona EV and it solved the problem and saved me a painful, wasteful trip to the clueless dealer! Thanks!

[@ya472]

Thank you for commenting. I had to chuckle.. "clueless dealer'. I don't mean to rag on Dealer's, but most are too cheap to properly train their staff. Many businesses are the same.

[@TDogFreightDog]

OMG. This happened to me literally 2 days after purchasing my vehicle and this trick was the ONLY thing that worked! Thanks Stan!

[@ya472]

Awesome when something I post, helps. You are welcome TDog.

[@andrasrusznak9080]

Saved my day! I'm testing a Kona N, and get the car at the dealership yesterday with low battery on my phone. I said: no matter, I've got the wireless charger, aha... didn't work! I searced up the menu to and fro, and the users manual as well, no results. Than, I found this and solved the problem by pulling out and putting back MODULE 5 and MEMORY fuses. Thanks a lot, mate!

[@ya472]

Thank you for your comment. It is so weird this happens to the new Konas, and this solution apparently seems to be permanent too. No one has mentioned they have done it more than once.

[@AnthonyLoCoco-l2h]

Absolutely Worked!! Details: Have a new 2022 N-Line Kona and the wireless pad was replaced once at about 3,000 miles. Have 10k now and it all the sudden stopped working. Pulled all three fuses as noted here at once. Closed the door and went in the house for a cup of coffee, went back out and reinstalled all three. Works now.

[@ya472]

Thank you for the story. It makes one wonder however, if the pad needed replacing the first time? :-) It is amazing what a good cup of coffee will fix. ha ha ha

[@AnthonyLoCoco-l2h]

@@ya472 My thoughts exactly - stealership was nice, had to leave it for the whole day. Maybe they did the 'reset' sequence?? I have the paperwork that shows the warranty-billed Hyundai for a new unit. [who really knows the truth]. Next time I will pull the rubber pad and put a secret mark on it for my own knowledge though.

[@NealFrench]

Thanks for the video. The second option with the memory fuse worked for my wife's Kona. Easy to do and saved me a lot of time and hassle. Thanks from the UK.

[@ya472]

You put a spring smile on my face, knowing this video was helpful for you. Thank you for the feedback.

Worked for me on a Kona, the Memory fuse was the one that did it, I tried all 3 and restarted engine each time. Thanks for taking the time to do the video!

[@CMThomas83]

Thank you for taking the time to make and share this video. Your suggestions worked for me and my 2022 Kona SEL. You saved me a bunch of time and headache going to the dealership. Very much appreciated. Exact order I followed was take out module 2, module 5, and then memory. Next I reinserted module 2, module 5, and then memory. Put the cover back on and started the car. Used steering wheel navigation buttons to navigate to the convenience menu on the dash to make sure the wireless options were showing up and turned on, and they were.

It is too bad the Dealerships either are not aware, or are not willing to offer a link to this video so more people can do this??? Thank you for the comment. 🙂

[@davechilds357]

This worked! Our 2022 Kona EV is only one month old and stopped wireless phone charging. This fix worked, although I don't know how long the fix will last. We'll find out. Thanks!

[@ya472]

Thank you for the comment. My 2022 Kona charging pad has caused no further issue. I haven't heard from anyone who has had an issue after this successful 'reset'.

[@davechilds357]

UPDATE: This fix only solves the problem for a month or two. Then all of a sudden, the wireless charger stops working and the option to enable it disappears from the "convenience" section. I've had to perform this workaround about 6 or 7 times in the last year. But it does work every time, it's just annoying!

[@daveclark8197]

@@ya472 I'll just add that mine failed again a year later and the same fix worked again. Note that when testing, all doors need to be closed. My phone wants to be far right on the charge pad, up against the rubber bumper which was presumably put there for the purpose of positioning.

[@ya472]

@@daveclark8197 Thank you for the UPDATE. One thing to remember too, mostly if one tried to disconnect the battery to accomplish the same thing, it MIGHT CAUSE A LOT OF TROUBLE. Steering wheel has to be straight, doors closed, parking brake on, air conditioning off - - - and a bunch of other things, because all the SENSORS need everything set, to reset.

[@GrimsBar]

Hit the switch for 20 seconds, ficked it back. Boom. Working. 👏 tysm!

[@ya472]

I was too chicken to hit the 'switch', as I didn't know how other things would be affected. I suppose it isn't worse than replacing the battery, though I have heard, that can cause issues with steering sensors, or something. Thank you for the comment.

Thanks for the video. I tried your tips for my Kona 2022 EV and I was hopeful when my phone charged for a few seconds, the light then flashed a few times and then turned off. Any thoughts on why this is happening? I too want to avoid going to the dealership!

[@ya472]

So, the charge pad reactivated and worked for a few seconds. Did you try again? This process apparently reflashes something, but if your pad quits again, maybe a loose wire, or defect? I watched and searched Forums for three months before I found this solution, so maybe keep checking around ?

[@wojciechpiekarz5923]

in my 2020 Kona I have this option, it is checked, but this charging is not stable. It disconnects (probably because the phone is heating up) and I never know how long it will work. By the way - do you know the parameters of this charger?

[@ya472]

@wojciechpiekarz5923 My phone gets quite warm during wireless charging, (Samsung). However, I have it wrapped in an Otterbox case. The case moves the phone further from the induction charging and sometimes causes issues. My phone charges best in a specific orientation. Perhaps you could experiment with yours?

[@kateychandler3075]

Hi, does anyone know if this works on a base model 2021 Kona. I’m in the process of purchasing that model and the charger doesn’t even light up at all when placing the phone on the pad? There is also no wireless charging option on thru user interface. Surely they wouldn’t put the charger there if it wasn’t supposed to work and take up space for no reason?

[@ya472]

Try this procedure of removing and reinstalling the fuses. It often reboots the computer function, and the charging option shows in the menu. If you read the comments, this has worked for many people.

[@DebAndCal1]

Didn't work for my car. A little while ago I had my Kona (same as this guy's car) which caused my pad to stop. I did remove the fuses and put them back in order and double checked the fuse ratings. Still not working. Took my car in today and now many months later, the dealership is blaming the company who installed my dashcam, saying that its now drawing too much power which prevents the pad from working. While my car was in service, they updated my software which that option on the info screen, is no longer there. I plan to contact the dashcam installer, and have them check their work. Maybe the dealership created the issue due to them having problems updating my software.

[@ya472]

Ok, now that they updated the software, and the option is not there, it is a good time to retry the fuse thing. Stupid mechanics, blaming the dashcam - for pulling too much power. Stupidest comment I have ever heard. If that was true, then the fuse would blow, and the simple solution is to install the dashcam on another circuit. Dashcams take almost no power, so the Mechanic is double stupid. lol. Thanks for the comment, hope you find the issue.

[@ya472]

You are the first person to mention having to do this twice. Was your battery disconnected or replaced or jump started? I just attribute this process like rebooting a computer, but why it isn't automatic, must have some issue with the software itself? Many sensors get a signal from the ECU to verify operation, but I am no software expert.
