What are the reasons why the BYD S6 does not detect the key?

BYD S6 does not detect the key for the following reasons: battery power shortage, poor fuse contact, and starter failure. Below are the relevant explanations: Battery power shortage: A low battery is the most common reason for failure to start. To check if the battery is low, you can measure the voltage with a multimeter. Generally, the voltage should be around 12V when not in use and above 10V when starting. If these values are met, the battery can be ruled out as the issue. Poor fuse contact: You can try tapping the fuse box a few times or pressing each fuse inside the box. If the car starts, it indicates poor fuse contact. Starter failure: If you don't hear the sound of the starter when pressing the start button, it's time to visit a repair shop to replace the starter.
I also encountered unresponsive key issues when driving my BYD S6 last time, which was quite annoying. One common reason is a depleted key battery, resulting in a weak signal that the car can't receive. Another possibility is physical damage to the key from being dropped or exposure to strong magnetic fields - devices like phones or microwaves can interfere with its operation. Vehicle-side problems could include a faulty key signal reception module or outdated system software requiring updates. Don't forget to check the car battery level, as low voltage affects the entire system. My solution is attempting multiple starts, switching to the spare key if unsuccessful, or visiting a repair shop promptly to avoid prolonged safety risks from delayed maintenance.
