The new traffic regulations do not allow the installation of fog lights, and it is prohibited to alter the vehicle's distinctive features or modify the car's power system and safety structure. Notes on fog lights under the new traffic regulations: Installing fog lights is considered part of vehicle modification. Since fog lights are a standard feature on most vehicles, many cars do not require additional fog lights. Function of fog lights: Fog lights are installed at the front and rear of the vehicle. Their purpose is to make the vehicle visible to others in conditions of reduced visibility, such as fog or heavy rain. The light source of fog lights needs to have strong penetration. Most vehicles use halogen fog lights, while xenon fog lights are a more advanced option.

What are the reasons for the new car's reversing camera not displaying?

If the reversing camera does not display, and there is no signal or a black screen when shifting into reverse gear, it is mostly due to a damaged video cable or camera. If the screen does not respond, it indicates that the reverse signal is not being transmitted to the navigation system. Check whether the reverse light is on and if there are any issues with the wiring harness. The reasons for the reversing camera not displaying are as follows: 1. Poor contact: If the reversing camera screen flickers, it is very likely due to poor contact in the wiring. It is necessary to immediately inspect the connection points between the wiring and the vehicle's installation to see if there is any loose connection. If there is, it will naturally affect the normal imaging of the reversing camera. In this case, simply reconnecting it properly will suffice. 2. Replace the power cable: It could also be due to aging of the video power cable. You can try replacing it with a new power cable.

How to Spray Water on the Front Windshield?

The operation method for spraying water on the front windshield is as follows: 1. The front windshield washer is located below the right side of the steering wheel. The wiper switch controls the front and rear windshield wipers and washers. It is operated by moving it up and down. The front windshield wiper has five gear positions. 2. In the intermittent gear position, you can rotate the intermittent time adjustment knob. As the wiper speed bar narrows, the wiper intermittent times are 1s, 3s, 5s, and 7s, respectively. 3. For the front windshield washer, lift the wiper switch upward (toward the steering wheel side). If the action time is short (within 0.5s), it only sprays water without wiping; if the action time is longer, it continuously sprays water and wipes at low speed, and after releasing the switch, it automatically wipes three times and returns to the original position.

What are the steps for matching shock absorbers after replacement on a Mercedes-Benz?

Use a computer to access the vehicle's suspension control unit, first activate the height adjustment, then perform manual adjustment, and finally carry out height matching, marking the angle values. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Configuration: Mercedes-Benz combines air springs with the Adaptive Damping System (ADS), which comes as standard equipment in the new S-Class. The Adaptive Damping System continuously adjusts the damping force according to requirements, taking into account factors such as road conditions, driving style, and vehicle load. Under normal driving conditions, the system sets the shock absorbers to a soft setting. 2. Damping Force: In more dynamic driving conditions, such as when the car suddenly swerves around an obstacle or during sudden braking, the system can respond within 50 milliseconds to adjust the damping force for each wheel. This way, the "Skyhook" algorithm regulates the damping force, thereby reducing the forces exerted on the body caused by wheel movement.

Why won't the parking heater ignite?

Parking heater failure to ignite indicates either the parking heater is malfunctioning or the car battery's charging capacity has declined. The parking heater is an onboard heating device for the car engine, equipped with its own fuel pipeline, electrical combustion heating system, etc. It can preheat and warm up a parked car engine in cold winter conditions without starting the engine, preventing cold-start wear on the vehicle. Common parking heater fault analysis: 1. For indicator light flashing situations, check the flashing frequency against the fault code table to identify the faulty component. If the indicator light stays on constantly, it may indicate control circuit failure or unconnected ground wire - repair or replace corresponding parts. 2. If the glow plug is damaged, use a multimeter to check the resistance value between the two leads of the glow plug. The resistance should be between 0.6-1.2 ohms. If it's outside this range, replace the glow plug.
