2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
2019 Santa Fe light bulbs are mostly a dealer job. The book says removing the headlamp assembly to reach a bulb can damage the vehicle.
| Item | Figure |
|---|---|
| Most bulbs | Consult an authorized Hyundai dealer. Other parts must be removed to reach the bulb, especially the headlamp assembly. |
| Condensation | After heavy driving, rain, or washing, headlamp and trunk lenses can look frosty. That is a temperature difference. Water inside the circuitry is a dealer check. |

Most bulbs are a dealer replacement in this book.
The book says that can damage the vehicle.
Frost after rain can be normal. Water in the circuitry is a dealer check.
Frost on the lens after heavy driving, rain, or washing is described as condensation from a temperature difference, not by itself a failed bulb. If water leaks into the bulb circuitry, the book says to have a dealer check the vehicle. No bulb trade numbers were read as a clean table, so none are added.
