2 Answers
Guangqi Honda Accord steering wheel unlocking method: Gently turn the key with your right hand while lightly turning the steering wheel with your left hand, and the steering wheel will naturally unlock. During maintenance or before driving, always pay attention to whether the motor plug above the clutch pedal is loose, which can be checked by hand. In case of an emergency where the steering wheel suddenly locks while driving, brake immediately, restart the vehicle, and promptly contact a 4S dealership for inspection. The body dimensions of the Guangqi Honda Accord are 4839mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. In terms of power, the Guangqi Honda Accord uses the 1.5T Earth Dreams turbocharged engine found in the Civic and CR-V, with Honda adjusting its maximum torque. The maximum power is 143 kW, and the maximum torque is 260 Nm.
When driving a Honda Accord, if I find the steering wheel locked, my method is quite simple: just sit in the driver's seat, insert the key into the ignition switch, gently wiggle the steering wheel left and right while turning the key to start. Usually, after a few tries, the steering wheel unlocks. The steering wheel lock is actually an anti-theft feature of the car; if the steering wheel isn’t straightened after turning off the engine, it automatically locks to prevent unauthorized use. I remember once parking on a slope without noticing, leaving the wheel turned, and it got stuck when restarting—it took three attempts to unlock it. Normally, I try to center the steering wheel before turning off the engine to avoid locking. After developing this habit, the issue occurs much less often. The Accord’s operation is quite user-friendly, but low key battery can also affect unlocking, so it’s good to check the key’s health regularly. In short, don’t force it—just be patient and try a few more times, and it will eventually unlock.
