Why does the car display 'service' and fail to start?

This is the vehicle's anti-theft indicator light, indicating that the engine has entered an anti-theft state. Below is an introduction to the car's anti-theft system: 1. Introduction: To enhance anti-theft effectiveness, some vehicles are equipped with a steering lock. The steering lock is used to secure the car's steering shaft. It is integrated with the ignition lock and installed under the steering wheel, controlled by the key. After the ignition lock cuts off the ignition circuit and stops the engine, turning the ignition key to the extreme left position will extend the lock tongue into the steering shaft groove, mechanically locking the car's steering shaft. 2. Types: A car anti-theft device is installed in the vehicle to increase the difficulty and time required for theft, acting as a guardian for the car. By connecting the anti-theft device to the car's electrical circuit, it can prevent theft, intrusion, and protect the vehicle while enabling various functions of the anti-theft device. With advancements in technology, to counter increasingly sophisticated theft methods, various types and structures of anti-theft devices have been developed. These devices can be categorized into four main types: mechanical, chip-based, electronic, and network-based.
