Log in to the official website of Traffic Management 12123, click on vehicle services, and then select 'Replace Vehicle License Plate' to enter the license plate replacement process; 2. Fill in the required information such as the type of service, reason for application, whether a temporary license plate is needed, method of receiving the plate, mailing address, etc.; 3. After verifying the information is correct, enter the mobile verification code, click 'Complete', and submit the application. Once submitted, the information cannot be modified. After the license plate is produced, it will be mailed to your address. If you are replacing a license plate, you do not need to provide the original damaged license plate. However, if you are changing the license plate, you will need to provide the damaged one.

Yes, you can now replace your license plate using the 12123 app while in another city. I personally did this when working in Shenzhen. Just log into your traffic management 12123 account, find the 'License Plate Replacement' function, and follow the steps to upload clear photos of both sides of your ID card and the vehicle. Select the 'Mail Delivery' service and enter your current mailing address (e.g., your Hangzhou work address if you're there). The DMV will courier the new plates to you - no need to return to your hometown. The entire process takes about 3-4 days and costs around 50 RMB including postage, with progress trackable via mobile. Just remember to clear any outstanding traffic violations first, otherwise the system won't process your request.

You can definitely reapply for your license plate in a different location! The 12123 APP makes this process super convenient: After registering and logging in, select 'License Plate Replacement' in the 'Service Center', upload photos of the vehicle owner's ID and the VIN, and fill in the current residential address for delivery. When I reapplied for my license plate in Beijing last year, I didn't even need to return to Shandong. I paid a 65 yuan fee for production and postage online, and the new plate was directly delivered to my company. A reminder: when taking photos of your vehicle, make sure to do it in a well-lit area and capture the entire body of the car. Additionally, if the vehicle is company-owned, you'll need to upload the organization code and a digital copy of the power of attorney. The entire process can be completed online, making it especially suitable for people who are away from home for extended periods.

The Traffic Management 12123 app supports out-of-town license plate replacement. The process is simple: open the app, click 'More' to enter the vehicle services section, select 'License Plate Replacement' and follow the prompts. The key is to truthfully fill in your current residential address, as the system will automatically match you with the appropriate out-of-town vehicle management office for processing. Last month, I just helped a friend replace their Chongqing license plate while in Shanghai, and the new plate arrived by express delivery in three days. However, note two important points: first, the vehicle must be registered under your name; second, the delivery requires personal sign-off with an ID card. The fee is typically around 60 yuan, and you'll receive an SMS notification upon payment completion. If the system is slow, try again late at night to avoid peak hours.

Why does the tire pressure monitoring light come on in cold weather when the tires still have air?

Reasons why the tire pressure monitoring light comes on in cold weather when the tires still have air: The tire pressure monitoring system may have triggered a false alarm; Slow air leakage after a tire puncture may cause the indicator light to come on; Encountering uneven road surfaces while driving can cause uneven tire pressure due to varying forces on the tires. What to do if tire pressure is insufficient: If no visible damage is found on the car's tires, simply inflate them to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system. If a puncture is detected during inspection, drive to a repair shop promptly for patching, then reinflate the tire. If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any punctures, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to inspect and replace the wheel rim. How tire pressure monitoring works: Pressure sensors installed inside the tires measure the air pressure, and wireless transmitters send this data from inside the tire to a central receiver module.

A damp garage can lead to body corrosion, severe rusting of the brake system, and affect electronic components. The specific impacts of a damp garage on a car are as follows: 1. Body: High moisture concentration in humid air can corrode the car's paint, reducing its gloss and even causing rust in areas with minor scratches. 2. Vehicle Components: Dampness in key components such as shock absorbers, suspension springs, and drive shafts in the chassis can impair functionality and affect driving. 3. Electronics: Excessive humidity can make CD reading difficult, especially for the chips inside car audio systems, which become very fragile in damp conditions, leading to distorted sound output.

Will the motor burn out if the windshield washer fluid keeps spraying?

Prolonged spraying of windshield washer fluid can burn out the motor, so it's important to pay attention to the antifreeze properties of the washer fluid in winter. Precautions for using windshield washer fluid are as follows: Selection of windshield washer fluid: Different seasons and climates require different types of windshield washer fluid. The use of washer fluid mainly depends on temperature. For example, in winter, the washer fluid used should have antifreeze properties, as regular washer fluid can easily freeze in cold weather. In summer, areas with more insects in the south may require washer fluid with insect-repellent properties. Volume of windshield washer fluid: The use of windshield washer fluid generally follows standard volume specifications. Different brands of washer fluid have different volume standards, so it's important to pay attention to these details when purchasing. When switching to a different brand of washer fluid, be sure to first understand its volume specifications.

Can I keep pressing the clutch pedal while waiting at a red light during the subject three driving test?

It is not advisable to keep pressing the clutch pedal while waiting at a red light, as this will accelerate the wear of the release bearing. Here are the relevant explanations: 1. Correct practice: It is recommended to shift into neutral (N) gear when waiting at a red light, then press the brake pedal or engage the handbrake. This can prevent the car from rolling. 2. Clutch principle: The car's clutch has a release bearing. Pressing the clutch pedal or the release bearing controls the engagement and disengagement of the clutch disc. The release bearing will come into contact with the pressure plate of the clutch disc, which is fixed to the engine flywheel. Therefore, as long as the engine is running, the pressure plate is also rotating.
