The reasons why the Peugeot 308 has power but won't start are as follows: 1. The steering wheel is in a locked position: The solution is to forcefully turn the steering wheel while turning the key, which usually quickly unlocks the steering wheel lock, and ignition is just a moment away. 2. The gear was not returned to the P position when parking: If the vehicle can be started in D or R gear, the sudden movement of the vehicle at the moment of ignition is undoubtedly a significant safety hazard. Therefore, for automatic transmission vehicles (AT, CVT, AMT), manufacturers preset this mode and repeatedly emphasize in the manual: Ensure the gear is in the P position when starting. 3. Smart key battery depletion with one-button start: Even though the key is inside the car, the dashboard always displays 'key matching error.' This situation is likely due to the smart key's battery being depleted, and the start system cannot detect the weak radio waves emitted by the key. It is recommended to place the smart key on the start button and then press the button to start.
