What are the reasons why a Corolla won't start?
1 Answers
There are several reasons why a Corolla may fail to start: 1. Dead battery: This could be due to prolonged headlight usage without turning them off leading to battery drain, or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan (generally recommended to replace every 2 years). Installing xenon headlights, high-power audio systems, or DVD players can also cause vehicle circuit issues. 2. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) to start. Starting in R (Reverse) or D (Drive) will prevent ignition. 3. Other malfunctions: Excluding improper operation by the driver, potential issues include starter motor failure, fuel pump supply problems, injector issues, or sensor malfunctions, which require professional diagnosis and repair.
