What does the Baojun 560 engine anti-theft authentication failure mean?
2 Answers
Baojun 560 engine anti-theft authentication failure indicates either a mismatch between the remote key and the engine control unit or water seepage from the front windshield film. An engine can refer to both the power generation device and the entire machine including the power unit (such as gasoline engines, aircraft engines). Types include internal combustion engines (gasoline engines, etc.), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), gas turbines (racing cars), and electric motors. Taking the Baojun 560 2017 Rhythmic Edition 1.8L iAMT Premium as an example: This vehicle's manufacturer is SAIC-GM-Wuling, classified as a compact SUV, with gasoline as its energy type, equipped with a 5-speed mechanical automatic transmission, and configured as a 5-door 5-seater SUV.
I've personally encountered an anti-theft authentication failure with my Baojun 560, which usually means the vehicle's anti-theft system didn't recognize the key chip, preventing the engine from starting. Last time I tried to start it, the key signal was very weak, possibly due to a dead key battery or interference. The system checks the code in the key, and if it doesn't match, it fails directly. You should try using the spare key to see if it still doesn't work, or check if the battery needs replacing. This issue is quite common, especially with older keys. I recommend going to a professional repair shop as soon as possible to check the anti-theft module or key programming issues, so you don't compromise travel safety. Sometimes, electrical interference in the garage can also affect the signal, so try starting the car in a different location first.
