Why does BYD not respond when starting?

[Daedalus]

BYD not responding when starting may be due to a dead battery. Here is some knowledge about BYD: 1. Introduction: BYD is a Chinese automotive brand founded in 1995, mainly producing commercial vehicles, family cars, and batteries. Starting with a team of just over 20 people, it grew into the world's second-largest rechargeable battery manufacturer by 2003, the same year it established BYD Auto. BYD Auto follows a development path of independent research, production, and branding, committed to creating truly affordable vehicles for the people. The product designs incorporate advanced international trends while aligning with the aesthetic values of Chinese culture. 2. Brand History: BYD Company Limited was founded in 1995, starting with a team of just over 20 people, and grew into the world's second-largest rechargeable battery manufacturer by 2003, the same year it established BYD Auto.

I've been driving BYD cars for several years and have encountered the issue of no response when starting the engine a few times. Most of the time, it's due to a dead battery—for instance, if you forgot to turn off the interior light after parking, or if the car hasn't been driven for a long time, causing the battery to slowly drain. Another common reason is a faulty starter motor; when you turn the key, you might hear a humming sound but the car won't start, which could be due to severe wear. In winter, cold weather reduces battery performance, making this issue more likely to occur. Additionally, a false trigger of the anti-theft system might cause the car to not recognize the key, resulting in no response at all when trying to start. My advice is to first check if the car lights turn on. If the dashboard lights are dim, call for roadside assistance to jump-start the battery or try charging it yourself. Avoid repeatedly turning the key forcefully to prevent damaging the ignition coil. Prevention is key—clean the battery terminals from corrosion annually and check the voltage before long trips.

My BYD wouldn't start at all last time, which really got me anxious. After checking, the main reason was insufficient battery charge, probably because I've only been driving short distances to and from work recently without fully charging it. Also, if the smart key's battery is dead or there's interference causing the sensor to fail, the car won't start—try replacing the battery. If the starter motor is broken, you'll hear a clicking sound but the car won't start, and if a fuse is blown, there might be no sound at all. I used a multimeter to test the voltage and found it was below normal, so I quickly charged it to solve the problem. Regularly checking these details can avoid trouble. If you're a novice and don't understand, don't mess around—it's safer and more reliable to call a tow truck for repairs.

As someone who frequently interacts with vehicles, I understand that failure to start in BYD models is usually caused by several key factors. A low battery charge is the most common issue, preventing the starting system from functioning. Secondly, a faulty starter motor may produce sounds but fail to engage. Problems in the ignition circuit, such as blown fuses or short-circuited wires, can also interrupt the signal. Insufficient remote key battery or activation of the vehicle's anti-theft function may also cause no response. During diagnosis, observe the dashboard status: no indicator lights may indicate a power issue, while sounds suggest checking the starter. Visit a professional shop promptly to avoid safety risks.
