What are the reasons why the Haval H2 won't start?
2 Answers
Possible reasons why the Haval H2 won't start are as follows: the gear was not returned to the P position when parking, the steering wheel is in a locked position, the smart key is low on battery or out of remote sensing range, the battery is dead, the weather is cold without antifreeze, or there is no fuel, which can also cause the car not to start. Below is additional information about the Haval H2: Design: As a new addition to the lineup, the new car still adopts the design of the current model, continuing to use the hexagonal family-style grille, giving it a fashionable and sporty overall appearance. The new car is equipped with a wealth of safety features, including ESP, TCS traction control, HHC hill start assist, MI rollover prevention system, HDC hill descent control, and more. Powertrain: In terms of power, the new car has upgraded its powertrain system, equipped with a GW4G15F 1.5T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 110kW (150PS) and a peak torque of 210Nm. The transmission is paired with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and the entire lineup meets the National 6 emission standards.
As an experienced driver who has owned a Haval H2, I've encountered situations where the car wouldn't start, mainly due to several reasons. The most common issue is battery problems, especially with older batteries that tend to lose charge easily in winter, resulting in a weak or completely silent starter motor when attempting to start. Secondly, an aging starter motor can make strange noises if the ignition switch gets stuck. There are also fuel system failures, such as a non-functioning fuel pump or clogged fuel lines, which are more common when fuel levels are low; or damaged ignition coils causing the spark plugs to fail. Additionally, the Haval H2's anti-theft system is sensitive, and if the key fob's battery is dead and can't be recognized, it will lock the system. I once helped a neighbor diagnose this issue, and it turned out to be loose battery terminal connections—tightening them solved the problem. It's recommended to first check the battery voltage or try jump-starting. If that doesn't work, check if any fuses are blown. Regular maintenance of the fuel pump and electrical circuits can effectively prevent such issues, especially charging the battery before cold weather sets in.
