Why is the Smart 453 not responding when starting?
1 Answers
Smart 453 not responding when starting could be due to key failure, gear not in P position, or not pressing the brake. Key-related reasons: For example, the key battery is dead, or the key's radio waves are being interfered with. If the car key is frequently placed near electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers, or TVs, it can easily cause interference with the low-intensity radio waves in the key, making it difficult for the car's sensor to detect it. In this case, the car's one-button start will not respond. Solution: Try replacing the key battery first. Gear not in P position: For most car models nowadays, the car cannot be started if the gear is not in the P position. This is a safety feature designed by manufacturers to prevent the car from being started while in D or R gear. Solution: Shift the gear to P and try starting again. Not pressing the brake: Many cars' one-button start requires pressing the brake to start the engine. If the brake is not pressed, only the car's electrical circuits are activated, which is also a safety feature. Solution: Press the brake while starting.
