What are the reasons for a car having power but not starting?
1 Answers
The reasons for a car having power but not starting are as follows: 1. Wrong gear position. When parking and turning off the engine, the gear was not shifted to P but directly left in D. Neither D nor R gear positions can start the engine. 2. Out of fuel. Apart from a dead battery, lack of fuel will also prevent the engine from starting. 3. Fuel pump failure. If the starter operates normally when attempting to start, check the fuel lines to see if the fuel pump is the issue. 4. Starter malfunction. A faulty starter can also prevent the engine from starting. 5. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle. In this case, slightly pressing the accelerator may help start the engine. 6. Faulty crankshaft position sensor. When starting, the engine's computer cannot receive the signal and thus cannot control the spark plugs to ignite.
