What's the reason for Roewe RX5 not getting power?
2 Answers
The reasons why Roewe RX5 is not getting power are as follows: 1. The car has been parked for a long time, causing the battery to lose power. First, due to the self-discharge characteristics of the battery, the battery will discharge even when not in use. Secondly, modern cars are generally equipped with anti-theft systems, which are still working when the vehicle is parked and require a certain amount of power supply. 2. The battery has reached the end of its service life. Clean the battery's inspection window and observe the color inside. If it is green, it means the battery is normal; if it is black, it means the battery voltage is low and the charge is insufficient, which can be solved by charging; if it is white, it means the battery has reached the end of its service life, and the only solution is to replace the new battery.
When encountering the Roewe RX5 not powering on, I've faced similar issues a few times with other cars I've driven. First, it could be a dead battery—either from sitting too long and draining or loose terminals causing poor contact. I've used a multimeter to check; if the voltage drops below 12 volts, it's time to replace the battery. Second, a faulty starter motor can also cause this—turning the key yields no response. Blown fuses are another common culprit; check the corresponding fuse in the fuse box. Last time, my car had this issue, and replacing the fuse fixed it. Lastly, if there's a problem with the key system, like a depleted smart key battery, remote start might fail. I recommend checking the battery and fuses first, avoiding unnecessary disassembly. If unsure, head straight to a repair shop for circuit diagnostics to avoid damaging other parts. Regular maintenance of the electrical system is crucial to prevent last-minute failures that disrupt travel plans.
