Volvo Engine Not Working
 

Whether you're commuting to work or taking a weekend road trip, that last thing that you want to experience is a vehicle that won't start. If you're dealing with this issue, have your car brought to our auto repair shop. We have a team of experienced mechanics who can quickly diagnose the source of your trouble. Here are some of the most common reasons why vehicles fail to start.

1. Dead Battery

 

A dead battery is easily among the top causes of a vehicle that won't start. While car batteries naturally begin to weaken over time, extreme temperatures can cause them to fail prematurely. Once a battery is unable to effectively hold a charge, it's time to have a replacement installed.

 

2. Faulty Ignition

 

Ignition switches are often subjected to a great deal of wear and tear. When the switch contacts are completely worn, it's only a matter of time before your vehicle fails to start. The only solution is to replace the part.

3. Bad Starter

 

A starter is an electric motor that links to your car's battery. Like many other parts, a starter's life can vary from one vehicle to the vehicle. If you begin to hear a clicking sound when turning the ignition key, there's a good chance your starter has gone bad.

4. Clogged Fuel Filter

 

A fuel filter is designed to trap contaminants in the fuel system, including dirt and rust. When this filter becomes clogged, the flow of gasoline will be restricted. At some point, your vehicle may fail to start. On average, most fuel filters need to be replaced every 20,000 - 30,000 miles.

5. No Gas

 

If you've run out of gas, don't expect your vehicle to start. Routinely checking the fuel gauge will help you to avoid becoming stranding. When the low fuel light comes on, you typically have less than 50 miles left before the tank is empty. Don't take any chances. The best approach is to stop by the nearest gas station to refuel.
