What are the reasons why the Changan Yuexiang car suddenly fails to start?
3 Answers
Changan Yuexiang car suddenly fails to start for the following reasons and solutions: 1. Battery power issue: Due to the shedding of battery plates or improper acid-base balance ratio, the battery's power storage is insufficient. Regularly check the battery. If the battery has been depleted more than twice, it is recommended to replace it with a new one. 2. Carbon deposits: Long-term low-temperature driving, low-quality gasoline, prolonged vehicle use, or burning engine oil can easily lead to carbon deposits. Use professional gasoline additives to clean carbon deposits. 3. Frozen exhaust pipe or excessive valve carbon deposits: Drive at high speed every weekend in winter to use strong exhaust force to promptly drain the accumulated water in the exhaust pipe. 4. Engine oil flow obstruction: Go to a specialized shop for professional winter maintenance and replace the appropriate engine oil according to local conditions.
I've been driving a Changan Alsvin for over five years and have encountered several no-start situations, so I'm quite qualified to speak on this. The most common cause is a dead battery, which could be due to battery aging or leaving the headlights on. Another issue is the starter motor - if you hear a clicking sound but the engine doesn't turn over when starting, it's probably 80% likely the starter is faulty. Once I had a fuel pump failure where I couldn't hear the buzzing sound of the fuel pump working when turning the key, which directly caused fuel supply interruption. By the way, problems with ignition coils and spark plugs can also cause this, especially during rainy and humid weather. Finally, don't forget to check the fuses - I once burned the main fuse due to a short circuit in the cigarette lighter. If you can't fix it yourself, I recommend calling a tow truck to take it to a repair shop directly, saving yourself the hassle and potential damage from prolonged attempts.
My Yuexiang just had a starting issue last week - dashboard lights were on but no response when trying to start. Don't panic. First check the battery: turn on headlights to test brightness, dim lights indicate dead battery; also inspect battery terminals for oxidation/poor contact. Then listen for starting sounds: clicking without engine turning suggests starter motor failure; complete silence could mean ignition switch problem. Always verify fuel level - running empty is most embarrassing. Also note that anti-theft system malfunctions can lock the system, try re-syncing your key. If you can't identify the cause, don't force it - professional technician inspection is the wisest solution.
