ETC cards have two sides, with the side containing the chip being the front. The front side should face the car window and be inserted into the card slot of the OBU device. Where can ETC be installed: For small vehicles such as cars and minivans, the OBU device is installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle part. ETC installation position requirements: The height should be no less than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters; the installation angle N should be between 30º and 90º (the angle between the surface of the electronic tag and the horizontal plane). The ETC installation process is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and the red light will briefly turn on. The OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and stick it to the installation position. Press firmly with your hand for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the front windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device.

What lights to use when parking on the roadside?

Why does the transmission make abnormal noise that disappears when the clutch is pressed?

The reason why the transmission makes abnormal noise that disappears when the clutch is pressed is: After the clutch is pressed, the power between the engine and the transmission is cut off, and the transmission stops rotating, so the abnormal noise disappears. In this case, it is necessary to check whether the transmission gear oil is missing or deteriorated. The transmission is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine. It can fix or change the transmission ratio of the output shaft and the input shaft in different gears. The transmission consists of two parts: the transmission mechanism and the shifting mechanism. The main function of the transmission mechanism is to change the value and direction of torque and speed, while the main function of the shifting mechanism is to control the transmission mechanism to achieve the transformation of the transmission ratio, that is, to achieve gear shifting for speed and torque change.
