What is the reason for the Lavida's one-button start not responding?
2 Answers
Lavida's one-button start not responding reasons are as follows: 1. Smart key battery depletion: This situation is most likely due to the smart key's battery being depleted, causing the start system to fail to detect the weak radio waves emitted by the smart key. You can pick up the smart key and place it on the start button, then press the button to start. 2. Insufficient battery voltage, dead battery, or battery damage: Failure to start may be due to reasons such as leaving the headlights on for a long time, resulting in battery depletion or the battery's lifespan expiring. Generally, replace the battery promptly according to the maintenance manual. If the battery is dead, you can use another battery to start or use the push-start method.
I had a similar issue with my Lavida recently—the one-button start suddenly stopped responding, which was really frustrating. At first, I thought it might be the key, so I replaced the battery. The Lavida requires the key to be within the sensing area to start, so don’t place it too far away. Also, make sure the gear is in P (Park), or the button won’t respond. Pressing the brake pedal is crucial—it must be fully depressed for the system to receive the signal. I checked the button surface myself; dust buildup might affect contact, so try wiping it gently with a soft cloth. Another thing to consider is the fuse—sometimes a blown headlight fuse in the engine compartment’s fuse box can cause starting issues. In my case, it turned out to be an electronic problem linked to a recent windshield wiper malfunction. Eventually, I had it fixed at the 4S shop. Remember, don’t force it—regular maintenance of the car key and electronic components can prevent such embarrassing situations.
