You can replace the cabin air filter yourself by following these steps. 1. The cabin air filter is usually located inside the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat. 2. To replace the cabin air filter, remove the glove compartment in front of the front passenger seat, take out the old filter, and install the new one. 3. It is generally recommended to replace the filter in spring or autumn, as it is used more frequently in summer and tends to get dirtier. The functions of the cabin air filter are as follows: 1. It ensures the filter fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin. 2. It absorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, and other substances from the air, with strong and long-lasting moisture absorption. 3. It prevents the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for the driver and passengers, thereby enhancing driving safety.

What are the reasons for a new fuel-injected motorcycle lacking power when climbing hills?

The reasons for a motorcycle lacking power include issues with the ignition switch and air filter. Contact issues: Poor contact in the ignition switch or a faulty connection in one of the ignition system wires can cause irregular ignition. It’s also possible that the ignition system itself is faulty. Check if the drive belt has stretched significantly, causing slippage, or if the variator weights and belt pulley are worn. If the air filter or exhaust pipe is clogged, insufficient air intake and exhaust can also lead to power loss. Fuel tank issues: If the carburetor’s air-fuel mixture is incorrect or clogged, similar problems can occur. Scooter motorcycles have an electronic choke—check if it is open. A malfunctioning vacuum fuel valve can cause poor fuel delivery. Worn camshafts or valve rocker arms can disrupt proper air intake and exhaust. If there is air in the fuel line, fuel supply may become intermittent when climbing hills due to tank movement. Also, check if the spark plug is misfiring.

What Causes the Rearview Mirror Heating Light Not to Illuminate?

The reasons for the rearview mirror heating light not illuminating include circuit breakage, faulty flasher relay, excessive contact gap, and other factors. Circuit Inspection: Check if the power line terminal of the flasher relay has electricity. If there is no electricity, inspect whether the line to the power source is broken. If there is electricity, use a screwdriver to connect the two terminals of the flasher relay. If the turn signal lights up, it indicates a faulty flasher relay, which should be replaced promptly. If it does not light up, inspect the flasher relay. Contact Inspection: If the turn signal does not illuminate when pressing the movable contact and the contact is closed, use a screwdriver to short-circuit the contact. If the light then illuminates, it indicates oxidized contacts. If the turn signal still does not light up, the issue may be with the turn signal switch. Use a screwdriver to separately connect the power line of the turn signal switch to the left and right light line terminals. If the light illuminates, it indicates a faulty turn signal switch, which should be removed for repair or replacement.

Do taxis need a ride-hailing qualification certificate to operate on Didi?

Renting a car to operate on Didi requires a ride-hailing qualification certificate. Additional information is as follows: 1. Operating on Didi requires two certificates: the "Online Car-hailing Transport Certificate" and the "Online Car-hailing Driver's Certificate". The new Didi policy implemented on New Year's Day 2019 clearly states that drivers registering for Didi ride-hailing services must hold both Didi certificates. The policy also introduced a "dual-certificate dispatch priority" model to encourage users to obtain the certificates, gradually phasing out unqualified private vehicles. 2. Obtaining the Didi ride-hailing qualification certificate: The advantage is that drivers do not need to worry about traffic inspections and can avoid severe penalties, allowing them to operate openly on the road. On the other hand, the downside of registering a private vehicle for Didi is the enforcement of the mandatory scrapping rule after 8 years or 600,000 kilometers. Even if the Didi account is deactivated later, this rule still applies. Additionally, in the event of passenger accidents involving injuries, commercial insurance companies have the right to refuse claims for compensation.
