What to Do When Normal-Mode Prevents the Car from Starting?
2 Answers
Ford's dashboard displays normal-mode, causing the vehicle to fail to start. It is recommended to first charge the battery by jump-starting from another vehicle. If the issue is simply a depleted battery, this should resolve the problem. If jump-starting from another vehicle does not solve the issue, it is advisable to seek inspection and repair from a 4S shop or a professional. Additional information: 1. Advantages of the battery. Since the battery uses lead-calcium alloy for the grid frame, it produces less water decomposition during charging, and the water evaporation rate is also low. Additionally, the sealed structure of the casing minimizes the release of sulfuric acid gas. Compared to traditional batteries, it has advantages such as not requiring any liquid addition, easy connection to terminal posts, and long power storage duration. 2. When the dashboard displays normal-mode, it is usually caused by a depleted car battery. The most common reason for this situation is prolonged use of in-car electrical appliances while the engine is off, such as listening to music or running the air conditioning. Frequently draining the battery can cause permanent damage and shorten its lifespan. 3. The most critical issue with a car battery is power loss. There is a generator next to the car engine. The engine's belt drives the generator to rotate, and the generator then supplies power to other parts of the car. Simultaneously, it charges the battery. Only in this way can the battery have a continuous power supply.
Hey buddy, not being able to start in normal-mode is really annoying, I've encountered this several times before. First, make sure the key is inserted correctly and the gear is in P position. For manual transmission cars, you might have forgotten to press the clutch. Listen for any 'clicking' sound when starting. If there's no response at all, it's probably a dead battery. Try turning on the interior lights or headlights; if they're dim or don't light up, the battery is drained. You can temporarily fix it with a power bank or jumper cables. If there's a cranking sound but the engine doesn't start, it could be due to carbon buildup on the spark plugs, a faulty fuel pump, or a clogged air filter. Don't try restarting too many times in a row, as it might damage components. It's best to keep a simple battery tester handy and check the voltage before heading out. If it's below 12V, charge it or replace the battery as soon as possible. For safety, if you can't get it to work, don't force it—call for roadside assistance or take it to a professional auto shop to check the electrical system and prevent fire hazards. Total 175 words.
