No problem so far. But one fine morning, your Opel Movano will not start more or barely started. What is annoying is that we do not fully understand what the problem came from. Since you must have missed your appointment, take a few minutes to understand the problem. We will see through this file what will be the most frequent situations and how identifier.
Your Opel Movano battery is discharged
It is without any uncertainty the most common problem, and perhaps the most basic to troubleshoot. Your headlights of this Opel Movano will be left on for hours, the bulb inside the car, or just stupidly the ignition on, or others. Anything that could use electricity while the engine block remains off could be the source of the concern. However, it also appears as soon as the battery turns out to be really too old, or even alternator. To check if the battery of this Opel Movano is discharged there is a very simple way. If the headlight illumination remains lowis that it is a battery problem! On the other hand, assuming that the headlights work properly, this means that the problem comes from elsewhere. To charge the battery, you probably know how to do it, and think about constantly having cable inside your trunk. It is also possible that the thimbles of the battery be oxidized. In this case it is only necessary to open your hood and check if they happen to be dirty. In this case you will be able to remove the oxidation with a duster. If it doesn't work, you will need to change the battery.
The starter of the Opel Movano is worn out
It is less frequent than a discharged battery however it can still happen sometimes. To know what to do you need to understand the role of a starter on this Opel Movano. The latter is a kind of engine inside the engine. What sets it apart is that it is fully electric. It is the latter which will start the engine, and the electricity useful for its operation comes from the battery. To fix it, sometimes you just have to give a few small strokes on its surface in order to separate the coals to let electricity circulate.
The engine of your Opel Movano is flooded
Hopefully this is not the case. Sometimes it is still plausible to start your Opel Movano, even if it also happens that the engine remains permanently drowned. It’s something that happens especially when it’s cold. Usually, you will be able to perceive it as soon as we try to start the engine and we can feel a strong gasoline smell. Sometimes you just have to wait around XNUMX minutes and the problem will be gone. On petrol vehicles it is also possible to dry petrol at the level of spark plugs however, this remains a manipulation not recommended for novice mechanics.
Conclusion
If this Opel Movano does not start, it can come from a electric problem and more rarely of a engine problem. You now know the main keys to be able to distinguish the problem, if despite everything it still does not go away, do not hesitate to go to a professional, they are paid for it after all! Good luck.
