2024-2026 Hyundai Sonata (DN8) AC Not Shutting Off – ATCU Software Update

TSB 25-01-075H

Important Information for 2024-2026 Hyundai Sonata Owners

Hyundai Motor America has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB 25-01-075H), for certain 2024–2026 Hyundai Sonata (DN8) models produced between October 18, 2023, and July 21, 2025.

This campaign addresses a potential issue where the air conditioning (AC) system may fail to fully shut off when the vehicle is parked and turned off, which can lead to battery drain.

If you own or lease a 2024, 2025, or 2026 Hyundai Sonata, your vehicle may be included in this service campaign. Please contact our service team to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.

🔧 What’s the Issue?

The Air Temperature Control Unit (ATCU) may not completely power down after the vehicle is turned off, allowing the AC system to remain partially active. Over time, this can cause unnecessary battery drain while the vehicle is parked.

Hyundai has developed a software update for the ATCU that corrects the AC shut-off logic and ensures the system fully powers down when the vehicle is off.

This software improvement is part of Hyundai’s ongoing commitment to safety, reliability, and performance.

In some cases, this update can also be performed Over-the-Air (OTA) via Hyundai Bluelink, if your vehicle is equipped and connected.
