The reasons why a car won't start are as follows: Car battery is dead: Check if the battery is dead, incorrect gear position or steering wheel lock causing failure to start. Low temperature: The viscosity of the car engine oil decreases with lower temperature; check if the fuel pump is damaged. Ignition system issues: Check if there are problems with the ignition system. Car electrical or electronic faults, such as damaged spark plugs, blown fuses, or fuel pump failure. Insufficient car fuel: Check if the fuel level is adequate. Excessive carbon deposits inside the vehicle's engine; check if the engine sensors are damaged. Fuel pump damage: Prevents fuel in the fuel tank from being supplied for combustion. Use a heating rod to warm up the engine oil.

How to Reset the Service Light on a Peugeot Vehicle?

Owners can try inserting the car key, pressing the button below the fuel gauge on the dashboard, and then turning the key forward one notch. Hold for ten seconds before releasing the button to reset the service light. If this method fails, the owner will need to visit a 4S shop, where staff can use a computer to reset the service maintenance light. Below is some related information about the service light: 1. If the light comes on before the vehicle's scheduled maintenance period, maintenance may not be necessary. Typically, to ensure the vehicle operates normally, manufacturers preset the service light to illuminate when the vehicle reaches a certain mileage or time interval, reminding the owner to perform timely maintenance, check the vehicle's condition, and determine if parts need replacement. 2. Maintenance cycles vary by model. For example, the Peugeot 4008 has an official recommended maintenance cycle of the first service at 2,500 kilometers, followed by every 10,000 kilometers. The air and cabin air filters should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers, spark plugs every 40,000 kilometers, and brake fluid, transmission oil, and power steering fluid every 60,000 kilometers.
