1 Answers
Emgrand GL dashboard displays hill start assist malfunction because the Emgrand GL comes with a hill start assist function, which prevents the vehicle from rolling back for three seconds when starting on a certain slope. The following is an introduction to the Emgrand GL hill start assist function: Introduction to the Emgrand GL hill start assist function: When the brake pedal is pressed to stop on a slope, the applied braking torque is sufficient to keep the vehicle stationary on the slope; when the vehicle is stationary, and the driver switches from pressing the brake pedal to pressing the accelerator pedal, the HHC maintains the braking pressure to ensure no rolling back; when the vehicle is still stationary, the HHC reduces the braking torque as the driving torque increases, ensuring the vehicle neither rolls back nor surges forward; when the driving torque is sufficient to move the vehicle forward, the HHC reduces the braking torque to zero, allowing the vehicle to start smoothly. Reasons for the Emgrand GL displaying hill start assist malfunction: The gear lever is not in the P position (for automatic transmission models) and the accelerator pedal is not pressed; the vehicle must also be stationary; the operator has not engaged the handbrake (foot brake or electronic brake). When these conditions are met, the hill start assist system will activate as the driver moves their foot from the brake pedal; in some vehicles, the hill start assist system automatically activates when the operator presses the brake pedal further. Additionally, this system also functions when reversing on a slope. Solutions for Emgrand GL hill start assist malfunction: First, you can try turning off the hill start assist, wait a few minutes, and then restart it. If the malfunction display persists, it is recommended to go to a 4S shop for maintenance and inspection.
