Why is there no response when trying to start the Changan CS55 with the anti-theft lock engaged?

Changan CS55 failing to start may be due to incorrect gear position or a dead battery. No response when trying to start doesn't necessarily mean the car is broken. First, check if the gear position is correct. If the gear position is fine, press the horn. If it doesn't sound, the battery is dead. If it does sound, then it's another issue. Incorrect gear position: For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when starting. If it's in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car won't start. Dead battery: This could be caused by leaving the headlights on for an extended period or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan. It's generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years. Additionally, installing aftermarket accessories like high-power audio systems or DVD players can also lead to electrical circuit failures. Checking for a dead battery is simple—just press the horn to see if it sounds. Jump-starting with jumper cables: If another vehicle is available nearby, this method is time-saving, effort-saving, and cost-effective. You'll need another car that starts normally. Connect the positive terminals of both cars with jumper cables first, then the negative terminals. This will provide the necessary power. Be careful not to reverse the order. This way, the car can have power in a short time—simple and quick, isn't it?
