Problem overview

Some Hyundai Azera owners report experiencing random shutdowns of the dashboard computer while driving, which causes gauge needles to temporarily drop to zero. These shutdowns may be linked to various electrical issues, such as faults in the battery or alternator that lead to power loss. Additionally, some owners have found that inspecting wiring and connections related to the dashboard computer can reveal loose connections or shorts that cause intermittent shutdowns. Faulty sensors have also been reported to trigger incorrect information or shutdowns, prompting some owners to have these components checked and replaced. Furthermore, a malfunctioning ignition switch may contribute to sudden shutdowns of the dashboard computer and other electrical systems, leading to recommendations for inspection and replacement. Lastly, decreased engine performance can indicate underlying issues that affect the dashboard computer, making it essential for owners to address any engine problems to prevent further complications. If these issues persist, it is advisable for owners to consult a qualified mechanic or Hyundai service center for a thorough diagnosis and resolution.
