What causes the Geely electronic parking system malfunction?
2 Answers
If the electronic parking system malfunction is displayed, it is mostly due to an issue with the parking or brake system switch, which prevents the start system from receiving the brake signal, resulting in failure to start. Replacing the switch can resolve the problem. The specific causes are as follows: 1. Parking brake problem: The parking brake lever cannot be fixed. The parking brake fails. The parking brake makes abnormal noises or has aged. 4. System problem: The gap between the friction pads and the brake drum in the automatic parking system is too large, or the friction pads and brake drum are contaminated with oil, severely worn, have exposed rivets, or the surface is hardened, causing slippage and malfunction. 5. Wear problem: The parking brake pin shaft is severely worn, the gap is too large, or the parking brake lever adjustment is too long.
That Geely electronic parking system malfunction is really annoying. I remember once while driving, the fault warning suddenly popped up, and it took quite a while to figure out there are quite a few common causes. Like the button being broken or not reset—try pressing it gently a few times; sometimes it's the wiring connector coming loose, causing poor contact on bumpy roads; the system software occasionally acts up too, and restarting the vehicle helps a bit. Low battery voltage can confuse the computer, so if the battery is aging, replace it ASAP; worn sensors or actuators are also culprits—it might sound like a mechanical issue, but you actually need to check the wiring. My advice is not to take it lightly: if the fault light comes on, pull over and engage the handbrake for safety. It's best to visit a professional shop to scan the OBD fault codes. Geely's system design is pretty smart, but preventive maintenance is essential—regularly check the connectors and modules, especially in winter when low temperatures might trigger false alarms.
