Reported Issues with the Genesis GV60

[rickcinyyc]

Has anyone else had this issue with the on-board nav? I can tap the "On-board Routing" option and it does provide a route.

Both of my front center console USB C sockets have failed.

Yep we also have issue with he one on left for Android auto. We too have a MA1 module for wireless connectivity and to fix it at least temporarily we wrapped the emd in electrical type to make connection snug and stable. It doesn't click in but it is functional at least. The port moduel which also has the charge only port is only $135 so not end or the world. Had it looked at when they fixed the seat heatter/cooling button but tech said his cable worked fine and blamed the cable. Pretty sure it's not all 4 cables I tried. I'll have them revisit the issue next time

Thanks - struggling to get a service appointment at the moment. Interesting to know that someone else has had the same problem. I can’t get the left hand socket to work, even if I hold the plug in tightly by hand to test it. Not worried about the cost as it will be a warranty item, but I am concerned that the part won’t be available!

I realized from the first time I plugged something into these ports that they weren't very robust (understatement). I have been very careful every time I plug in or remove a drive or cable. I assume that mine will fail, and without redundancy, if the left one fails... no Android Auto (which should have been wireless), no music, no manual updates, etc. Does not inspire confidence.

Add me to the list of dead 12-volt victims.

Friday it was totally dead. Car was dark & cold and wouldn't do anything.

Pulled up the access panel, attached the NOCO jump pack and it revived the car immediately.

I charged the battery up by leaving the car in utility mode for an hour. I've been checking the battery voltage over the last 18-20 hours and it has been falling. Started above 13 VDC and is at 11.14 now. Car is still "alive" at this voltage, but it seems really low.

For the last 4 months my battery (at the end of the month) would read 12.2. I have both the NOCO Jump Pack and the NOCO Battery Tender/Charger. At the end of each month I would charge the battery using Tender/Charger and it would fully charge the battery back to 13 volts. So far I have not encountered a dead battery using this method.

I finally decided to give up checking the voltage and closed the hood. As soon as I did, the amber light came on to indicate charging.

So, I learned that the system won't charge if the hood is open.

I tried to drip charge once, what I noticed that when hood is open, there is a continuous reminder on the dashboard, with animation, that "hood is open". I think screen did go dark but whenever I opened the door, it came right back on. So, it simply means when drip charging with hood open, there is a continuous use of energy to keep dash on. What I can't tell if charging rate is faster than the consumption.

When I did remove the charger, orange light came on. So, safe to assume that car must have felt like battery has been drained, needs charging.

I'll try to see if I can run wire safely to charge and close the hood. I'm sure it should be doable.

Or you can locate and activate the micro switch triggering "hood open" message, which will allow you to trickle charge with hood open.

I have when setting for a charger (for the heat pump) while driving - was a bad signal area and a few minutes later it worked no problem.

You beat me to it. I tried that just this afternoon today. Worked like charm. I ran through right headlight though

It charged completely and when I unplugged, orange light didn't come. So, that confirms that open hood is a no go.

I don't follow. Are you saying there is a switch that I can use to turn it off? If it's on off button then I can try but if it requires plugging and unplugging wire harness then I'd rather not. I was able to run wire under the hood fine, took extra 10 second, next time, it will be less than 5 as I know where to run. That worked perfect.

I have been using the NOCO tender/charger for months and charging with the hood open. While I'm charging the "Orange Light" on the dash will not come, which is great. Once the NOCO charger's green light comes on, I remove the charger and hook up a volt meter to the battery and it always shows +13 volts.

He's suggesting that you disable/bypass the hood open sensor (switch) while you have the hood open to charge the battery.

Exactly, like you would do in a washing mashine :⁠-⁠) locate it and keep pushed in while charging

I'd love to see the picture to locate it. Most likely I'm not gonna do it but never hurt to know.

"Orange Light" didn't come on while charging with open hood. It came on once I removed the charger and closed the car.

I kept it plugged for good 3hrs or so, it didn't turn green. With wire hack under the hood, it was fully charged in 3hrs, orange light didn't come on.

Since you kept it connected to till full charge so I've to assume charging speed was better than consumption, it would just take longer.

Yes, charging is greater than any consumption. When I charge the battery each month, I would hook up the charger in the morning and just leave it charging during the day until the green light comes on. The charging time normally takes at least 7 to 8 hours. I also think the charging time depends on which charger you have i.e. how many amps. I have the NOCO 2amp. NOCO makes a 1amp, 2amp, 5amp 10amp, 25amp, 50amp etc.

For those regularly charging their GV60's 12V battery with an external charger, what is the concern you're looking to address?

Isn't observation of the orange light enough to assure you that the battery voltage is being maintained? Have you had some recurring issue that has lead you to believe the battery is not being properly charged?

I think with some of the members on the forum and from what we have seen on YouTube with the Ioniq 5 12V issues, there is a concern of a dead 12v battery. For example, if I externally charge the battery at the beginning of the month to +13v and then during the month the Orange Light would come on to charge the battery. However by the end of the month my battery voltage is down to 12.2v. Someone on the forum the other day mentioned his car was in storage or unused for 3 months and the 12v battery was dead. I assume that during that time the Orange Light was coming on to charge the battery, but it appears after a period of time it was not able to maintain enough of a charge of the 12v battery to start the car.
