Reasons Why Jump-Starting Fails to Start the Vehicle?
1 Answers
The reason why jump-starting fails to start the vehicle may be due to prolonged inactivity, causing the battery to gradually self-discharge and leading to a depleted state, preventing the vehicle from starting. Specific reasons are as follows: 1. Rescue issues: The jumper cables used are too thin, resulting in insufficient current; improper operation during jump-starting, such as loose or improperly connected clamps, or the rescue vehicle not being started, leading to insufficient voltage and current. This requires ensuring the rescue vehicle has adequate voltage and current and using compliant jumper cables with standard procedures. 2. Issues with the rescued vehicle itself: The rescued vehicle's battery has been depleted multiple times and can no longer hold a charge, indicating severe damage; or the rescued vehicle has other starting-related faults besides insufficient voltage and current, such as flooded spark plugs from failed attempts to start, or a faulty fuel pump causing startup failure. In such cases, it is necessary to seek professional rescue and repair services or tow the vehicle to a suitable repair facility for fault diagnosis.
