Last night while driving home noticed that the D and the # 3 were both lit on my insturment panel of my 2004 Santa Fe. I drove to the the bottom of the hill I was on. approx 600 feet and pulled over where it was safe. I stopped the car.Turn off the engine and restarted with no problem. However when I shifted to drive again, it list the D for drive but also lit either then 1 or 2 and would not change gears automaticly nor would change gears if I tryed to manually change gears. (Its an automatic with a 2.7L engine). After getting home I checked the fluid and its a brownish color. I know I will have to change the fluid. Hopefully I did not fry the transmission. Any ideas from anyone on what may be the problem.
Time to go to a transmission shop. You could try a complete tranny flush at sears first and have the filter changed.

I have the same problem also. Hope someone has the answer.
Engine performance problem causes are many. Try this first.
1. Disconnect the battery cables (both of them)
2. Touch/connect the postive and negative battery cables together for 30 seconds.
3. Reconnect the cables to the battery.
4. Drive vehicle to see if this solved the problem. Let me know what happens.

the santa fe offers side steps, it is a solid system that mounts to the body and frame rail of the truck and extends out from the vehicle a little bit... other then that i know a lot of places sell aftermarket parts, but a lot of them if you put them on you have a lot of problems cause they are not made as a certain year kit, they are made as a generic kit and have to be made to fit.... straight from the factory side steps are the better way of going.... not anything other then that or you will have a sore ankel.... hope this helps you...

it sound like you have a vacum leak or your shifter cable may need adjusted

it is probably going into a fail safe mode, get it to a dealer and have it scanned for dtc's
