2002 Santa Fe Abs Problem, Self check coming on at random?

Maintenance/Repairs
1

My wife’s 2002, FWD Santa Fe has a growling noise that pops up from time to time when she’s going slow and getting ready to make a turn. She’s had the car about a year. I haven’t been in the car when it happens but I suspect it’s the ABS self check running when it’s not supposed to. Hyundai TSB 06-05-003 describes the self check, but it’s only designed to run during the first acceleration event after power on, not after driving a while.

There aren’t any error codes in the OBD and I or the shop haven’t been able to recreate it. Is there a calibration or test procedure?

The car has 77K miles on it, brakes and tires are about a year old.

Any ideas?



thanks

If the ABS system is activated, you’ll definitely feel it in the pedal if your foot is on it. If you don’t, I’d suspect something else.
