What's the reason for the non-response of the one-button start in the 2017 Volkswagen Lavida?
2 Answers
Lavida one-button start not responding reasons are as follows: 1. Smart key battery drain: This situation is most likely due to the smart key battery drain, the start system cannot sense the weak electric wave 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, no power or damage: Failure to start may be due to reasons such as the headlights being left on for a long time, resulting in battery drain or the battery life expiring. Generally, replace the battery in time according to the maintenance manual. If the battery is dead, you need to use another battery to start, or use the push-start method to start.
I experienced similar issues with my 2017 Volkswagen Lavida. Once, the one-touch start didn't respond, and I panicked, only to realize I hadn't pressed the brake pedal firmly enough. After stepping on it properly and pressing the button again, it worked fine. Later, I also encountered situations where the key fob battery was low or the signal couldn't be received because it was too far from the steering wheel. The Lavida's smart system is quite sensitive—it won't start if the key is in your pocket or when the battery is weak. Trying the spare key usually solves the problem. Additionally, an aging car battery can also cause startup failures, especially in winter. Safety tip: Don't force the button if it doesn't start; first, make sure the brake is fully pressed and the key is within the sensing range. As cars age, electronic components are prone to minor issues, so it's advisable to check the battery health every six months to prevent malfunctions. Overall, maintenance isn't difficult, and regular servicing can save a lot of hassle.
