It started with not being able to open the rear hatch, then not being able to use the key fob. I don't know if a parasitic drain is a cause or the effect. I have traced the drain to a fuse marked 25A P/WDW RH. The only way to use the vehicle is to remove the fuses when not driving the vehicle.

Doors will not open with key fobs. Electrical problem blowing fuses to doors. Daughter got locked out of car away from home. Got into car using key after a number of tries. Dealership worked all day trying to solve problem, now trying to say my fault and may not be covered by warranty. Nothing shows up on computer. You can hear actuators clicking when fob pressed but no action to open door. One year ago daughter helped elderly person boost car with cables in car. Hooked up wrong at first but no problem with battery or Santa Fe ever since that incident. Advised her not to try that again, call CAA or AAA instead. Anyone else had problem with electrical door latches and what is my recourse for repair

The parasitic drain ranges from 12 amps to .82 amps as the system goes to sleep. Unable to find documentation other than problems with the door actuators. I traced the draw to a fuse marked 25A P/WDW.
