What is the reason for the radar fault displayed on the Geely Emgrand dashboard?
2 Answers
It may be due to dirt on the radar surface. Here is some relevant information: 1. Geely Emgrand: The Geely Emgrand (referred to as Emgrand) is a sub-brand under the Geely parent brand. The new Geely Emgrand was launched on July 26, 2014, equipped with a 1.3T GeTec DVVT turbocharged engine, featuring front-wheel drive, a maximum power of 98kw, turbo intervention at 1800 rpm, and a peak torque output of 185NM at 2000 rpm. 2. Related configurations: In terms of interior, the EC7-RV adopts a unique red and black dual-color interior, with more eye-catching orange-red decorations on the seats and both sides of the doors, making it more dynamic. In terms of power, the 2013 Geely Emgrand EC7 still comes with a 1.5L and 1.8L engine. The 1.5L model is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, while the 1.8L model is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and a CVT continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving a Geely Emgrand for several years. Common causes for the dashboard showing radar failure include the sensors being covered by mud or dust, especially after rainy days or driving on muddy roads. In such cases, parking and cleaning the sensor area usually resolves the issue. Additionally, loose wiring or blown fuses are frequent culprits, particularly after prolonged driving on bumpy roads which may loosen connections. It's advisable to consult the manual to locate the fuse box for inspection. If the problem persists, there might be a software bug in the system; temporarily disconnecting and restarting the vehicle could help. Don't delay addressing this, as radar failure compromises parking safety—I once nearly scraped my neighbor's car due to this issue. Regular maintenance should include cleaning the radar area and avoiding heavy impacts to prolong its lifespan. When in doubt, professional diagnosis at a 4S shop is the safest approach.
