Why is my Geely car not starting?
2 Answers
Geely car not starting due to insufficient fuel pressure. Detailed reasons for no start: 1. Insufficient fuel pressure: If the horn and headlights work, the owner can use a screwdriver to test spark at the negative terminal of the ignition wire. Solution: Refuel. 2. Incorrect throttle position sensor signal: If neither horn nor headlights work, test spark at the starter terminal with a wire. Solution: Replace. 3. Faulty fuel pump. Solution: Replace. 4. Faulty spark plugs: Test spark between the distributor insulator terminal and distributor housing. If no spark, there's a broken wire between the distributor insulator terminal and the ignition coil "-" terminal. Solution: Replace spark plugs.
I've encountered the issue of no response when starting the car several times too. Geely cars commonly have more battery problems - I guess you're as frustrated as I was! Usually it's either the starter getting stuck or battery aging/loss of charge, especially during cold winter starts when insufficient power prevents ignition. Don't panic and keep pressing buttons randomly. First check if dashboard lights are on - if they are, it means the battery still has power and the problem lies with the starter or ignition system. If lights don't come on, it's likely a blown fuse or corroded connection. Last time I managed to fix it myself using a jump starter pack, but if you're unsure, better not force it to avoid damaging more components. By the way, Geely's anti-theft system can sometimes act up - try relocking and unlocking to reboot the system. Most importantly, safety first - if all else fails, calling roadside assistance is the reliable solution.
