You do not need to manually turn off the turn signal when making a right-angle turn. If it turns off automatically, quickly turn it back on. The solution for the turn signal automatically turning off during a right-angle turn is as follows: After straightening the car body, while holding the steering wheel with your left hand, your left middle or ring finger should keep pressing the left turn signal. When preparing to turn off the turn signal, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left, then quickly straighten it. At this point, the turn signal will automatically turn off, and you don't have to worry about accidentally switching to the right turn signal. To avoid common errors when turning off the turn signal, when about to turn it off, turn the steering wheel 90 degrees to the left, then quickly straighten it. At this point, the turn signal will automatically reset, preventing any incorrect switching. Before the turn, keep the speed low in a low gear, and straightening the car body is key. Use second gear at low speed and stay close to the outside, remembering not to cross the line. When the front of the car approaches the turning point, turn the steering wheel quickly without delay. First check if the path ahead is clear, then proceed slowly with caution. Watch the rear wheels in the rearview mirror, and remember to turn the steering wheel back.

What Causes the Cooling Fan to Stop Working?

Cooling fan not working is caused by water temperature not meeting requirements, relay failure, or thermostat switch issues. Here are the details: 1. Water Temperature: Most modern car radiator fans operate with electronic temperature control, so the fan will only start running normally when the engine coolant reaches the required temperature. If the temperature is too low, the radiator fan will not operate. 2. Relay Failure: If the water temperature meets the requirement but the car radiator fan still doesn't work, it may be due to a faulty fan relay. If the relay malfunctions, the car's radiator fan won't operate. 3. Thermostat Switch Problem: If neither of the above issues is present, there might be a fault with the thermostat switch, which can also affect the operation of the car radiator fan. Therefore, it's important to check this component as well.

Why can't residential parking lots recognize new energy vehicle license plates?

Due to the additional character in new energy license plates compared to previous ones, many parking lot's intelligent recognition systems are unable to properly identify them, causing inconvenience for vehicle access. Below is relevant information about new energy vehicle license plates: 1. Compared to regular vehicle license plates, new energy vehicle license plate numbers have increased from 5 digits to 6 digits, expanding the capacity of plate numbers and providing richer resources. The encoding rules are more scientific and reasonable, meeting the arrangement needs of "using fewer letters and more numbers"; 2. This not only avoids duplication with regular vehicle license plate numbers and meets the growing demand for new energy vehicles in the future, but also facilitates accurate identification during high-speed driving; 3. Additional anti-counterfeiting technologies such as QR codes, anti-counterfeiting background patterns, and laser designs have been added, ensuring the uniqueness of the license plates and traceability to their production source, thereby enhancing anti-counterfeiting performance.

For used cars aged 6-15 years, an annual on-site inspection is required, with the inspection month based on the registration month on the vehicle license. Vehicles aged 15 years or older must be inspected every six months. For large commercial passenger vehicles or cargo vehicles, used cars aged within 10 years require an annual inspection, while those over 10 years must be inspected every six months. 2. Required documents for used car annual inspection: (1) Vehicle owner's license; (2) ID card; (3) Driver's license; (4) Valid compulsory traffic insurance policy; (5) If processing through an agent, a "Power of Attorney" and the agent's driver's license and ID card are also required.

What are the pros and cons of car covers?

The benefits of car covers are that they can help outdoor parked cars resist damage from ultraviolet radiation, direct sunlight, acid rain, bird droppings, windblown sand, and animal claws, as well as prevent dirt, dust, rain, and snow from affecting the vehicle. They also protect against UV damage to the car's paint and interior. The downside is that they can affect the car's paint. When the cover is blown by the wind, it rubs against the car's paint, reducing its gloss. More details are as follows: 1. Definition: A car cover, also known as an automobile outer cover, is a protective garment made of fabric or other flexible, wear-resistant materials tailored to the car's dimensions. It serves as a protective accessory for vehicles, offering excellent protection for the paint and windows. Particularly for high-end cars, regular use of a car cover can extend the paint's lifespan and keep it looking as good as new. 2. Direct use drawbacks: Since a car's paint is exposed daily to dust, mud, resin, and flying sand while in use, directly applying a car cover when parking can cause the dirt on the car's surface to scratch the paint as the cover rubs against it during placement. Additionally, most car covers today have a flocked inner layer, which can accumulate dirt from the car's surface over time, making the cover dirty and potentially causing more harm to the paint.

How to Avoid Battery Drain in Winter?

Methods to prevent car battery drain in winter are as follows: 1. After parking at night: Shift the gear to neutral or N position, and observe if the car lights dim. When the vehicle is in neutral, the engine is idling, and the lights are powered entirely by the battery. If the car battery is low on charge, the lights will dim, helping to avoid a dead battery the next day. 2. When replacing the battery: It is recommended to choose a high-quality battery to avoid purchasing inferior ones. Regularly clean the dust and oxides on the battery surface during use. 3. Develop good driving habits: Turn off the headlights, air conditioning, and other electrical devices before parking. Wait a few minutes after starting the vehicle before using the air conditioning or other electrical appliances to reduce the instantaneous load on the battery and extend its lifespan. Forgetting to turn off the headlights after parking at night can easily lead to battery drain, so drivers should be cautious. 4. Drive the car occasionally if it is not used frequently: This allows the battery to recharge and prevents drain due to prolonged inactivity.
