What are the reasons for a vehicle suddenly failing to start?
1 Answers
Possible reasons for a vehicle suddenly failing to start include: 1. Throttle malfunction: When the throttle position sensor fails, the data received by the sensor is inaccurate, usually leading to high engine idle speed and causing the engine to stall; 2. Fuel pump not supplying fuel: Without fuel supply, the engine will naturally stall; 3. Timing belt breakage: After the timing belt breaks, the vehicle may suddenly stall while driving. After restarting, the engine may run at high speed without compression. This issue generally does not occur in new vehicles but is more common in older cars; 4. Coolant temperature sensor malfunction: Inaccurate data from the coolant temperature sensor can cause the vehicle to stall and fail to start after warming up. In such cases, it is necessary to visit a repair shop or a 4S store for computer diagnostics. If a problem is detected, the coolant temperature sensor needs to be replaced.
