Just started using one in front one and turn car key off,plugged charged out and started car again that one of front socket quit working. Fuse ? It's so annoying. Sorry to asking so many suggestions lol

 

Try using another charger. Sounds like the one you have is shorting the system.

 

Circuit protection device doing it' job keeping the circuit from being overloaded.. find fuse for each outlet,,,,,,,, THE re-evaluate your cord or device being used for short circuit or load requirments exceeding circuit protection device..

Simple enough

 

@Phych @sbr711 Thank you guys, booked in at dealership, so they can look into anything else wrong with electrical except just fuses, and my 12V Belkin phone charger working fine in driver side left socket and in other's car. i was playing with the charger plugging in and out, when the sockets stop working. other wise charger works fine if not moved around a lot.

 

Bunch of crooks at @ Hyundai Saskatoon, Canada. Worst experience. Billed & charged me $140.00 per hour + $ 22.00 shop supplies + $3.00 (2 fuses ) to check/Diagnose that fuses were blown and simply changed the fuses.for a $ 1.50 fuse. Scam. Worst experience. . feeling stupid of myself to trust them rather than just switch the fuse......


1 hour diagnose fees ? don't they just check the fuse first thing ?
i should prob file a complaint to Hyundai canada.
Has anyone came across this kind of experience ?

 

You should have followed sbr711's advice and saved yourself the money and inconvenience of taking it to the dealer.

Yes, I think an hour diagnosis is a bit much for replacing a couple of fuses. Having said that, some mechanics do have a really hard time checking for blown fuses. I often get called out to garages to fix an electrical fault that some mechanic has spent hours trying to diagnose only to find a blown fuse inside 5 mins. You shouldn't have to pay for their ineptitude though.

 

They dont know what the problem is, neither do I,, Fuse, wiring, broken sockets,,, I have to use my DVOM to test the circuit after grabbing wire diagram to see how the circuit laid out.. I use the power cord for the old HI-SCAN to verify socket (plug has LED I can see for live circuit)

What is fair start diag fee for electrical? It to point now that my shop fellas still say 1/2hr.. anymore there is more work to get at stuff just to be able to start.. Electric ideally should be 1hr start.. especailly when stuff has to come apart to get at it

Calling Hyundai to complain about customer pay labor wont do a whole lot, each dealer is an independently owned and operated franchise, only have to follow Hyundai Motor rules for warranty work

A guy drives in with a power socket not working and that's your diagnostic process? No wonder it takes you mechanics an hour to diagnose a blown fuse. Would it not be better to simply test ALL the fuses first? In this case the fault would have been found inside 5~10 mins, so even allowing for moving the car in & out of the workshop and writing up the job card, the full jobs done in 1/2 hr tops. Yeah, I know...horses for courses.

Well, I quote an hour for a diagnosis but if I find a blown fuse inside 5~10 mins I'm not gonna charge the customer a full hour. Personally, I'd be too embarrassed to charge a customer an hours labour and then tell him it was just a blown fuse. I certainly wouldn't have the neck to charge him for the fuses on top of his $140 labour.

No, it wont but it might highlight to Hyundai that there is something lacking in the training of their techs.

 

Even after complaint, they did not do anything. Still saying it was an hour job to diagnose blown out fuses.
and all the 3 fuses blew off again, I have changed the charger and i bought a low ( 1 AMP charger ) with only 1 USB port.
Still problem exist.

that sucks, i would imagine now it is warranty issue, fuse may be wear and tear item, but shorts are not, assuming you did not mess with electrical sys in any way.

 

when i worked at the shop, if someone comes in with something electrical not working, we'd check fuses first. but usually fuses do not just burn out, it does happen, but not too often, if it is blown, usually there is an issue more complicated than fuse. i've seen many cig lighter fuses blown, sometimes coins fall in and short, sometimes people connect something that shorts the circuit. but not so easy with other fuses, usually if we changed it, it would blow new one again, than we'd have electrician look for issues, it could take hours easy. it would complicate things a lot if someone messed with electrical, like installing alarms or radio\amps\speakers.

 

I know this may be obvious, but check inside the sockets to see if something conductive managed to make it's way in there.

Use a bright light. Since it is obvious, it may have been over-looked.

 

it is highly unlikely that if 1 outlet was shorted, it would blow 3! fuses. 1 sure but not 3.

sometimes electrical connections made while installing something, get lose, short, and create problems, seen it happen, even learned the hard way how not to do splicing decades ago.

I agree, but it would take a few minutes to check all three sockets, as it first started happening when he was repeatedly inserting the Power Adapter. It could have shed some metal.

Worth the few minutes for a visual inspection, no?
