Our 02 Hyundai Santa Fe has had the door open light on for years. The battery never seemed to be affected. But yesterday started by having the battery light go on. Then it died while driving. We jumped it and it kept dying while we were driving. We put in a new battery and it will still only start with a jump and dies as soon as we disconnect it. It died so bad the first time that even the door locks would not work. now they work but the car only clicks when we turn the key.

Charging system problem. Have a qualified Hyundai Service Technician properly diagnose
your vehicle.

Sounds like your alterator has malfunctioned and is not charging the battery or providing electrical energy to the vehicle.

Brake light and battery light came on at the same time

Have your alternator and alternatorwiring checked, if the ALT light goes on, so does the brake. So it could be that the alternator is faulty. Also check the fuses.
