What to Do When the Alpha's Automatic Door Fails to Open or Close Automatically?

If the Alpha's automatic door fails to open or close automatically, you should promptly visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair. Below is some extended information about the Alpha: 1. Basic Information: Sports cars designed and produced in Italy are faster than those from other countries, hence Italy is known as the 'Land of Fast Cars.' The Alfa Romeo (ALFA-ROMEO) brand is considered the fastest among the fast cars in this land. 2. Development History: In 1910, the Italian government established a racing car company in Milan. In 1901, a small car factory named Soueta-Anonimal-LombodaFabbrica-Autombilc was founded in Milan. In 1908, an engineer named Nicoha-Romeo took over the factory. By abbreviating the original factory name and adding his surname, the name Alfa Romeo (ALFA-ROMEO) was formed. In the 1980s, it was incorporated into Fiat Automobiles and is now the second-largest automobile company in Italy.

I've been driving this type of vehicle with automatic doors for several years, and it's quite common to encounter issues where the doors won't open or close automatically. The first thing to check is the fuse box to see if any fuses are blown—if they are, just replace them with inexpensive ones. If the motor or gears are stuck, try gently pushing or pulling the door to operate it manually, but avoid using excessive force to prevent damaging the parts. Sensor problems are another common cause, such as dust or obstacles blocking the detector—cleaning it or removing the debris might help. I've also experienced cases where the oil thickened due to cold weather, and adding some lubricant restored normal function. Remember to pay attention to track cleanliness during regular maintenance to prevent similar issues. If none of these solutions work, contact a professional repair shop promptly to avoid worsening the problem.

When the automatic door malfunctions, I immediately stop to ensure safety, as it might suddenly pinch people or objects. First, check if the battery has enough power—if the dashboard lights up when starting the car, the battery is fine. Next, see if the switch button is working; if pressing it yields no response, it’s often an internal wiring issue. My experience suggests avoiding forcing the door—manually lock it in a fixed position and drive to the 4S store for a technician’s diagnosis. They use tools to inspect the fuse, motor, and control system, quickly identifying the problem. I usually keep the door track dry to prevent rust and jamming. Similarly, be cautious with faults in power windows or sunroofs.

Last time my new car's automatic door malfunctioned, and I was scratching my head in frustration. I flipped through the manual and found the manual operation steps: first press the reset button or pull the fuse to reset the system. Tried it but didn't work, suspected the button had poor contact, so wiped the button surface and it improved slightly. If the door doesn't close properly, the sensor might be dirty—clean the detection area with a damp cloth. If that doesn't help, don't struggle too long; it's safer to send it for repair. I ended up spending some money to get it fixed. This breakdown taught me that with a new car, it's essential to understand its basic functions just in case.
