The reasons for the car not starting and all dashboard lights being on are: 1. Insufficient battery power; 2. Engine malfunction; 3. Insufficient fuel pressure; 4. Short circuit in the throttle position sensor signal; 5. Poor fuel pump performance; 6. Spark plug failure. The solutions for the car not starting and all dashboard lights being on are: 1. Charge the battery; 2. Inspect and repair the car engine; 3. Replace the throttle sensor; 4. Replace the fuel pump; 5. Replace the spark plugs. The dashboard consists of gauges, indicators, and warning lights/alarms, and its function is to provide the driver with necessary information about the car's operating parameters.
The car won't start but all dashboard lights are on. I suspect it's due to insufficient battery charge or an aging battery. Dashboard lights require minimal power and can still illuminate, but starting the engine demands high current - if the battery can't supply it, the car won't start. If the alternator is faulty, the battery won't recharge properly, leading to similar symptoms. Other possible causes include starter motor failure, key recognition issues, poor wiring connections, or blown fuses. I've experienced this before - turned out to be loose battery terminals; charging solved it. Don't keep trying to start it forcefully as this may damage other components. Better to visit a repair shop for battery voltage and alternator checks. Safety first - avoid getting stranded roadside.
