Yes, a driver's license is required. For vehicles with a total weight not exceeding 40 kilograms and a maximum speed not exceeding 20 kilometers per hour, no driver's license is needed, and license plate registration is not required. However, four-wheel electric vehicles powered by batteries fall under the category of motor vehicles. According to national regulations, motor vehicles must be registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority before they can be driven on the road. Mobility Vehicles: Two-wheel electric bicycles (with a speed below 25km/h and a weight not exceeding 55kg) are considered mobility vehicles and do not require a driver's license. Legal Road Use: To legally drive a four-wheel electric vehicle, you must obtain a C2 or higher driver's license. Additionally, the vehicle must be registered and display a license plate issued by the traffic management department to be legally driven on the road.

How Often Should You Replace Car Key Batteries?

Currently, car key batteries typically last about two years. Generally, remote keys won't suddenly run out of power. When the owner notices that the car doors only unlock when standing very close to the vehicle, it indicates the battery is about to die. Here are some maintenance tips for car keys: Storage Temperature: Do not expose the key to extremely cold environments below 0°C or extremely hot environments above 50°C, as this will significantly reduce battery lifespan. Storage Location: Keep the key in a dry environment, as humid conditions can decrease battery life. Avoid storing the key with hard objects that could scratch the chrome plating on the key.

How Often Should You Replace Your Car Remote Key Battery?

Generally, the battery needs to be replaced every two years. However, due to differences in individual usage habits, some drivers may find their key fob battery depleted within a year, while others may use it for 5 to 10 years without issues. This variation in lifespan is primarily due to differences in usage habits. Steps to Replace the Car Remote Key Battery: Removing the Battery: On the side of the car key, there is a round button. Press this button with one hand while pulling out the mechanical key with the other. Hold the key with one hand and use a flathead screwdriver with the other. Locate the gap in the middle of the top edge of the key and insert the flathead screwdriver. Gently pry the key up and down until a gap is created. Replacing the Battery: Take out the key's circuit board and gently push one side of the battery with your finger to remove it. Replace it with a new battery.

How Often Should You Replace Car Key Batteries?

Car remote key batteries typically last 2-3 years, except for touchscreen LCD remote keys (such as those for BMW 5 Series). The battery lifespan may vary depending on the vehicle model. Here are ways to determine if your car remote battery is running low: Shortened remote range: For example, if the door could previously be unlocked from 5-6 meters away but now only responds when very close to the vehicle; Unresponsive remote buttons: Occasional failure when unlocking the car, requiring multiple presses to function; Some vehicle models feature a remote key battery alert: The dashboard will display a "low remote battery" warning when the system detects the key is running out of power.

What Causes the Engine Yellow Light to Illuminate on the Dashboard?

The dashboard displaying an engine yellow light may be caused by: sensor issues, maintenance problems, oil quality issues, intake problems, etc. Sensor Issues: The sensors referred to here include water temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or experience signal interruption, the car's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which can trigger the engine fault light. Maintenance Problems: Poor engine maintenance is the most common reason for the engine fault light to illuminate. Vehicles have specific maintenance cycles, and if the owner does not adhere to these schedules, combined with poor driving habits, it increases the operational burden on the engine, leading to the fault light turning on. Oil Quality Issues: Oil quality includes both fuel and engine oil. The fuel used in cars usually has a specific grade, and engine oil can be semi-synthetic or fully synthetic. Manufacturers typically recommend which fuel grade and type of engine oil to use. If the owner does not follow these recommendations, long-term use can cause engine wear, naturally triggering the fault light. Intake Problems: Engine combustion requires air intake, and in this process, the air filter is crucial. If the car's air filter is not clean and not regularly cleaned, it can affect the air intake. Over time, this can lead to blockages, and in severe cases, cause the engine fault light to illuminate.

Are Reverse Cameras Universal?

Normally, reverse cameras are universal cameras. The following details explain why reverse cameras are universal: Similar power requirements: The internal structure and circuit board of the camera are basically the same as those of analog surveillance cameras, using a 12V power supply and outputting analog video signals. Universal cameras can form a complete reverse imaging system: A reverse camera is a vehicle camera installed at the rear of the car. Together with the display screen installed inside the car, it forms a complete reverse imaging system, allowing the driver to see real-time images of the rear while reversing.

How Many Car Keys Are There?

When purchasing a car, two keys are provided: one for regular use and one as a spare. Introduction to Mechanical Keys: Mechanical keys are the most common type of car keys. The door locks that match mechanical keys are generally similar to home door locks, requiring the key to be inserted into the keyhole and turned to unlock or lock. The drawback is that they cannot remotely start the vehicle and may not meet certain specific scenarios. Currently, they have largely been replaced by remote keys. Introduction to Remote Keys: Remote keys typically use weak radio waves emitted by themselves to control the opening and closing of doors. The advantage is that they can remotely start the vehicle, making them more convenient to use compared to mechanical keys. In addition to door control, they can also remotely operate windows, trunk doors, etc. Furthermore, remote keys have low power consumption and strong battery life.
