What to Do When the Haval H6 Battery Dies and Won't Start?
2 Answers
Haval H6 won't start due to a dead battery can be resolved using the following three methods: 1. Push-start: Push-starting is the most familiar and effective emergency starting method, but it is a last resort and should not be used frequently, as it can cause some damage to the engine and clutch. This method should especially be avoided for automatic transmission vehicles. 2. Towing-start: The method and principle of towing-start are similar to push-starting, but towing is often more effortless and convenient. During implementation, use a tow rope of appropriate length and ensure both ends are securely fastened. Before towing, the drivers of both vehicles should agree on communication signals, such as honking or hand gestures for starting and stopping, to coordinate effectively. 3. Jump-start: If you encounter a dead battery and have another vehicle with jumper cables available, you can use the battery jump-start method to start the vehicle. During operation, bring the two vehicles close enough so that the jumper cables can connect the positive and negative terminals of both batteries. Ensure the two vehicles do not touch, and only use cables with sufficient capacity and insulated sheathing.
I remember one time when my Haval H6's battery suddenly died and the car wouldn't start. I immediately thought of using jumper cables for emergency assistance. First, park another car nearby, open the hood, and connect the red clamp to the positive terminal of my battery (marked with a + sign), then attach the other end to the positive terminal of the other car. The black clamp goes to the negative terminal (marked with -) of the other car's battery, and the other end should be connected to a metal part of my engine to avoid sparks by not connecting directly to the negative terminal. Then, have the other car start its engine for a few minutes before I try to start mine, slowly charging the battery. If it doesn't work the first time, wait a bit longer and try again. Once successful, don't rush to turn off the engine; drive for a while to charge the battery. Normally, be aware that the Haval consumes a lot of power, and leaving lights on or frequent short trips can easily drain the battery. It's recommended to regularly check if the battery terminals are oxidized, clean them to maintain good contact, especially in winter when issues are more likely. Keep a portable jump starter in the car as a backup.
