When the car battery warning light is on, it indicates a fault with the car battery, and you should not continue driving. Below is an introduction about car battery maintenance: 1. Lifespan: The normal service life ranges from 1 to 8 years, depending largely on the condition of the vehicle. If the vehicle's alternator is charging properly and there are no electrical leaks or grounding issues, the battery can generally last more than 3 years. 2. Battery Maintenance Tips: Avoid parking the car in open parking areas for extended periods. If long-term parking is necessary, remove the battery to prevent damage from freezing. Clean the battery terminals periodically and apply specialized grease to protect the wiring harness.

What Causes the Squeaking Sound from Brake Pads?

Brake pads produce a squeaking sound due to the following reasons: 1. Severe wear of the brake pads, reaching the warning line or being completely worn out; 2. Deterioration in the quality of the brake pads; 3. Improper installation of the braking system causing abnormal noise; 4. Presence of foreign objects in the brake pads or rust on the brake disc. Brake pads, also known as brake linings, are critical safety components in a car's braking system. The effectiveness of all braking relies heavily on the condition of the brake pads. Brake pads typically consist of a steel plate, an adhesive heat-insulating layer, and a friction block. The steel plate is coated to prevent rust, and the coating process is monitored using an SMT4 furnace temperature tracker to ensure temperature distribution during the coating process, thereby guaranteeing quality.

How to Open an Oil Can Lid More Effortlessly?

The methods to open an oil can lid more effortlessly are: 1. Locate the joint at the edge of the oil can lid and break it from there, then peel off the seal; 2. Insert a screwdriver between the lid and the top joint of the can to start prying, and you can use two screwdrivers alternately for leverage; 3. After prying open half or two-thirds of the lid, twist it off by hand to remove the oil can lid completely. The primary functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear on moving parts, clean sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (detergents) from the engine, neutralize acids produced by fuel combustion and lubricant oxidation (detergents), improve piston ring sealing, and cool the engine by carrying away heat from moving components.

How to Remove Snow from Car Windows?

Methods for removing snow from car windows are as follows: 1. Start the car, turn on the air conditioning, and set it to hot air, directing it towards the windows. As the windows gradually heat up, the snow will slowly thaw in small amounts; 2. Use a brush or towel to remove the snow. If ice forms, use a dedicated ice scraper or plastic scraper to remove any remaining ice chips. Only use the windshield wipers after all snow has been cleared from the windows. Incorrect practices include: 1. Habitually turning on the windshield wipers, which can damage them in cold weather; 2. Pouring hot water on the windows, as the rapid temperature change due to thermal expansion and contraction can cause the glass to crack.
