Why does the car not respond when starting?

[StCharles]

If the car does not respond when starting, first check whether the connections on the positive and negative electrode posts of the battery are in good condition. If they are normal, turn on the emergency hazard lights while starting the motor. If the hazard lights on the dashboard light up but become dimmer and slower in frequency, or stop working, it indicates insufficient battery power, and you need to seek assistance from a car repair professional. The driver should turn the ignition switch to the ON position, press and hold the clutch pedal, and select the appropriate gear based on the number of people pushing the car. Generally, only 3rd gear can be used, but 2nd or 1st gear can be selected for starting if there are more people. Alternatively, you can use the reverse gear, ensuring that the car does not stall when releasing the clutch pedal. Release the handbrake and push the car to move. Once the car is fully coasting, release the clutch. At the moment the engine starts, press the clutch again while pulling the handbrake, shifting to neutral, and pressing the accelerator.
