What are the common faults in Geely's parking system?
2 Answers
Geely's parking system faults include the exclamation mark fault. This phenomenon occurs in traditional gasoline vehicles. Apart from a dead small battery, any other fault causes could indicate significant issues. Fault causes: After ruling out hardware problems, this fault is mostly related to software and system calibration issues. The main reasons are that the system detects the battery temperature exceeding preset safety values, or it detects sporadic fault signals, autonomously restricting certain vehicle functions. In this state, the vehicle cannot start or charge, remaining completely unresponsive like a dead car. Solutions: Similar to troubleshooting computer crashes or smartphone lag, restarting can resolve most issues. Pure electric vehicles can essentially be considered as large electronic devices, where all electronic systems and the main unit's power supply are managed by the small battery in the engine compartment.
That day in the garage, I ran into this exact issue. My Geely Boyue's automatic parking system suddenly went on strike—the radar kept beeping frantically, but the car didn't move an inch. After struggling for a while, I found out that the small radar sensor on the rear bumper was completely covered in mud, like it had been blindfolded. During the next car wash, I specifically asked the attendant to clean the sensor thoroughly, and sure enough, it worked perfectly again. Another buddy of mine had it worse—his Xingyue L's steering wheel went crazy during parking, and it turned out the side camera was coated with tree sap, making it look like frosted glass. So now, every time I get a car wash, I make sure the attendant polishes all 12 radar sensors and 4 cameras until they shine, especially after rainy days—those 'eyes' need timely cleaning.
