Why Won't My Car Start?

It's very inconvenient when your car won't start. A vehicle might be unable to start for a long list of reasons, but we've shortened that list to the culprits we typically encounter. Our list will help you if your car doesn't start currently, or you can have your vehicle brought to our team of certified technicians. They can expertly diagnose your problem and get your vehicle running again.

1. Depleted Battery

If you've ever accidentally left your headlights burning overnight, you know it's relatively easy to drain a car's battery. Extreme temperatures also cause batteries to lose charge. Additionally, age can negatively affect a battery. You can tell that your battery is depleted if your headlights are dim when you engage them. We can tell whether your battery will hold a charge by testing it on our professional equipment.

2. Faulty Ignition Switch

Whether you use a key or a wireless fob and a Start button, it might currently be connected to a faulty ignition switch. If your lights work fine and you have sufficient fuel, the likelihood of the culprit being your ignition switch increases. This is especially true if you engage your ignition switch and don't hear any sounds. If you're uncertain of what to do about an ignition problem, have your vehicle brought to the professionals in our Service Department.

3. Old Starter

If your battery is good and your ignition switch works, your car's starter should do its job. This electric motor can fail. When it does, it must be replaced. You'll know that your starter is bad if you hear a series of clicks when you try to start your car.

4. Clogged Fuel Filter

Your vehicle's engine relies on its fuel filter to protect it from contaminants. As miles compile, these contaminants can clog a fuel filter and prevent adequate fuel from reaching your engine. Commonly, fuel filters are replaced every 30,000 miles, but you should refer to your vehicle's manual for the manufacturer's recommendations. We will happily assist you with your specific fuel filter.

5. Empty Gas Tank

Check your fuel gauge. Your car may be out of gas. Always keep an eye on your car's fuel indicator, and stop for gas when it warns you that the tank is low.

We can help you figure out why your car won't start. Have your towing service bring us your vehicle in Houston, TX. Our professional technicians can get your car running again.
