    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

My LDWS indicator light on my 2103 started flashing green. I can't find anything on the internet as to what would cause this. I haven't changed the windshield and there is nothing blocking the camera. Any suggestions?

I have the same issue with my 2013 Genesis. Have you found any suggestions?
 
Here's what I found while poking around:
In order for the LDWS to work you must have:
The vehicle is driven near the center of the lane with the white or yellow line on the left and right sides, or on either side.
The vehicle speed is about 70 km/h (44 mph) or more.
The vehicle is driven on a straight road or road with gentle curves.

Causes for the LDWS not working:
The LDWS warning only becomes operable when the system detects the white or yellow lines.
If the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the vehicle moves close to a white or yellow line, the system determines that the driver is making a lane change and the LDWS warning is automatically canceled.
The LDWS may not operate during the period immediately after the vehicle has deviated from its lane and the LDWS has operated, or the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly within a short period of time.
The LDWS does not operate if it does not detect the white or yellow lines of the traffic lane.
Under the following conditions, the LDWS may not be able to detect white or yellow lines correctly and the LDWS may not operate correctly.
If an object placed on the dashboard is reflected in the windshield and picked up by the camera.
The white or yellow lines are less visible because of dirt or paint flaking.
The vehicle ahead is running near a white or yellow line and the line is less visible.
A white or yellow line is less visible because of bad weather (rain, fog, or snow).
A misleading line is picked up on the road such as a temporary line for construction, or because of shade, lingering snow, or grooves filled with water.
The surrounding brightness suddenly changes such as when entering or exiting a tunnel.
The illumination of the headlights is weakened because of dirt or the optical axis is deviated.
The windshield is dirty or foggy.
Back-light is reflecting from the road surface.
The road surface is wet and shiny after rain, or there are puddles on the road.
The shade of a guardrail parallel to a white or yellow line is on the road.
The width of a lane is excessively narrow or wide.
The road is excessively uneven.
The vehicle is shaken after hitting a road bump.
There are two or more adjacent white or yellow lines.
There are various road markings or lane markings of various shapes near an intersection.
 
Problem solved, at least with my car.

It seems the previous owners had the windshield replaced and never had the LDWS camera/system reset. So $130 later, everything is working just fine.
 
How do you rese the LDWS on the DTC that shows yellow or orange. The switch on the steering wheel has no effect for on off operation
