This is not certain and depends on the power source it's connected to. 1. Connected to the cigarette lighter: If the cigarette lighter still has power after the car is turned off, the dash cam will continue to work. If the cigarette lighter loses power after the car is turned off, the dash cam will shut down and stop working. 2. Connected to the ACC power source: The dash cam will automatically turn on when the car key is turned to ACC or when the engine is started. If the car is turned off but remains in the ACC position, the dash cam will still work normally. 3. Connected to constant power: It will work 24 hours a day. 4. Another scenario is that the dash cam has its own battery. Even if the car doesn't supply power, the dash cam will continue to work if not turned off when exiting the car, until the battery is depleted.

Why is the Tachometer Not Moving?

The reasons why the tachometer is not moving: 1. The flexible shaft connection inside the tachometer is broken; 2. The tachometer needle has fallen off or is stuck; 3. There is a foreign object inside the instrument panel; 4. There is an issue with the wiring inside the tachometer, such as aging or burning out. The solutions for a non-moving tachometer are: 1. Replace the flexible shaft connection inside the tachometer; 2. Reinstall the tachometer needle; 3. Clean the foreign object inside the instrument panel; 4. Replace the wiring inside the tachometer. The tachometer is an instrument used to measure the engine's speed and is one of the essential tools in the mechanical industry, used to determine the motor's speed, linear velocity, or frequency. The tachometer receives digital pulse signals, processes them, and directly reads them into the CPU's counting port. The software then calculates the speed and the corresponding position of the needle. Through the CPU's control port, the signal is amplified to drive the stepper motor to rotate in positive or negative directions, indicating the corresponding speed value.

What does P0700 Transmission Control Module Malfunction mean?

P0700 Transmission Control Module Malfunction indicates a transmission failure, with the yellow or red engine symbol lighting up on the dashboard. Causes of the malfunction: insufficient or poor-quality gear oil; severe wear on gear tooth surfaces, leading to excessive meshing clearance; fatigue spalling or chipping of gear teeth; excessive wear on the intermediate shaft and secondary shaft, or severe wear on spline shafts and internal gear splines, causing excessive clearance; bent shafts or loose locking components on the shaft; loose bearings or damaged bearing cages; contact and friction of non-working parts of the shift fork, among other factors. When a P0700 fault occurs, the vehicle should be promptly sent to a repair shop for computer diagnostics to identify the cause. Clearing the fault code: After troubleshooting the vehicle, it is generally necessary to clear the fault code. When clearing the fault code, it is essential to follow the specified clearing method for the corresponding vehicle model. Do not directly disconnect the negative battery cable to clear the fault, as this may cause the control computer of some models to lose stored data and result in the loss of certain functions.

Which is more expensive among 92, 95, and 98 octane gasoline?

98 octane gasoline is the most expensive. Gasoline is priced according to its octane rating, with 92 octane being the cheapest, 95 octane at a medium price, and 98 octane being the most expensive. Here is some additional information: 1. How to determine the appropriate fuel octane rating for your vehicle: Simply open the fuel tank cap and check the octane rating marked on it. Using the specified octane rating ensures no adverse effects on the vehicle. Failure to use the recommended octane rating may result in engine shaking, increased noise, and reduced power. 2. What to do if 95 octane fuel is not available for a vehicle that requires it: You can opt for 98 octane gasoline or 92 octane gasoline. If choosing 92 octane, be cautious and switch back to 98 or 95 octane when available. Using 98 octane gasoline is safe and won't cause any issues. However, using a lower octane rating than recommended for extended periods can negatively affect the engine.
