Why Won't the BAIC Huansu H2 Start?
2 Answers
Here are the reasons why the BAIC Huansu H2 won't start: 1. Wrong Gear Position: When parking and turning off the engine, the gear was not shifted to the P position but directly to the D position. Since the car cannot start when the gear is in D or R position, it will only start when the gear is in P or N position. Therefore, when attempting to start the car again, it fails to ignite. 2. No Fuel: Apart from a dead battery preventing the car from starting, running out of fuel can also cause the car to fail to start. This usually happens when the engine is left running while parked, depleting the fuel and draining the battery, making it impossible to start the car. 3. Fuel Pump Malfunction: If the starter operates normally but the car still doesn't start, you should check the fuel lines to see if the fuel pump is the issue. 4. Starter Malfunction: A faulty starter, which is similar to a dead battery, can also prevent the car from starting.
Last time when I took my own BAIC Huansu H2 out, it suddenly wouldn't start, which really stressed me out. I think the common causes are primarily battery issues - if the car hasn't been driven for too long or if you forgot to turn off the audio after shutting down the engine, low battery voltage can prevent startup. You should use a multimeter to check if the voltage is below 12V. Another possibility is starter motor failure or aging - after several years of driving the H2, the motor tends to wear out. Try turning the key to see if you hear a clicking sound; no sound means the starter is broken. Don't overlook the fuel system either - check if there's fuel in the tank, as insufficient fuel pump pressure or blockages can make starting difficult, especially noticeable in cold weather. I recommend not attempting to start it forcefully multiple times to avoid damaging the system; it's better to call for a tow truck for repairs. Don't forget about weak key battery or the anti-theft system locking - these small details are often overlooked. For simple self-help, you can clean the battery terminals or try a short jump start, but safety first - don't attempt to dismantle the engine yourself.
