Can a Second Attempt to Start a Flooded Car Be Detected?
1 Answers
It can be detected. After a car has been submerged in water, the starter motor will only engage again if the engine stalls. At this point, the starter motor will not respond, which constitutes a second attempt to start. A second attempt to start occurs when the car is submerged underwater, the engine stalls, and the key is turned again to ignite the engine underwater. Here are some related details: 1. Hazards: Typically, if a vehicle stalls in water, there is a 50% chance of engine damage. However, if the engine is restarted after stalling, the engine will almost certainly be ruined. 2. Precautions: Never attempt to restart the engine after a car has stalled in water. When encountering standing water on the road, the first step is to slow down and assess the water level. If the water reaches two-thirds of the tire's height, driving through it poses a certain risk, and it is advisable not to force passage.
