CR-V remote start operation method: Press the lock button once, then hold the HOLD button. When you see the turn signals flash 6 times consecutively, it indicates successful remote engine start. The system will automatically activate the air conditioning in recirculation mode and adjust the cabin temperature based on external conditions. The operational range is up to 30 meters. Below are relevant details: 1. Remote start refers to activating the engine remotely using the key fob. The principle is simple: the vehicle starts the engine upon receiving signals from the remote key. 2. The remote start function has certain vehicle limitations, with the most critical being that it can only be installed on automatic transmission models. This is because automatic transmissions are equipped with a TCU control unit that communicates gear position information to the ECU engine control unit. The engine will only start when the onboard computer confirms the gear is in P (Park) position, preventing accidental vehicle movement. Aftermarket installations lack this safety feature.

How to align the timing belt on a Cruze?

The following are the steps to align the timing belt on a Cruze: 1. Lift the vehicle, remove the right front wheel, and take off the generator belt, engine rubber mount, and timing cover. 2. Rotate the crankshaft to align the mark on the crankshaft pulley with the mark on the housing. 3. For the camshaft marks, use a special tool to lock the middle position between the two camshafts, then use a hex wrench to turn the tensioner pulley and remove the timing belt. 4. Install the new belt and tensioner pulley, then reassemble in the reverse order of disassembly. 5. If no special tool is available, mark the camshaft position yourself as the camshaft will rotate when the belt is removed.

Can Pickup Trucks Use the ETC Lane for Passenger Vehicles?

Pickup trucks cannot use the ETC lane on highways and must still pass through manual toll lanes at toll stations for payment. Pickup trucks are classified as light trucks, and since the toll standards for trucks and passenger vehicles differ, trucks are not permitted to use the ETC-dedicated lanes. ETC Usage Notes: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle ahead is stationary, to prevent issues such as a malfunctioning ETC device or the absence of an ETC device in the leading vehicle, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters to avoid automatic fee deduction for the vehicle ahead. The ETC lane recognizes vehicles at a speed of 20 km/h. Exceeding this speed may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to unsuccessful fee deduction. Unauthorized removal or relocation of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag becomes detached or loose, may render the electronic tag ineffective. In such cases, the device can be taken to the bank where the ETC card was issued or to a highway service center for inspection. If the detachment or loosening is not due to human interference, reactivation may suffice. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may cause fee deduction to fail. Follow the guidance of on-site staff and proceed to the manual MTC lane for payment via cash or card. Excessively thick car windshields may lead to poor signal reception. This is particularly important for vehicles that have undergone windshield replacement after accidents or for those with modified front windshields.

How many minutes of illegal parking will trigger a camera capture?

Illegal parking will be captured by cameras within 3 to 5 minutes. When a vehicle enters a temporary parking zone, the camera takes the first photo. If the vehicle remains beyond the allowed temporary parking duration, the camera will take a second photo and upload both images to the system, recording it as illegal parking. Additionally, drivers should note that in no-parking zones, any parking duration—no matter how brief—will be captured and considered illegal parking. Parking is prohibited in the following situations: 1. Within 50 meters of intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads less than 4 meters wide, bridges, steep slopes, or tunnels; 2. On road sections with no-parking signs or markings, on roads with separation facilities between motor and non-motor lanes or sidewalks, or in crosswalks and construction zones; 3. Within 30 meters of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations, except when using these facilities.

What does the tc displayed on the car mean?

The tc displayed on the car means the traction control system is working. The traction control system, also known as the track control system or drive anti-slip system, is part of the car's active safety system. Its function is to ensure the car obtains optimal traction under various driving conditions. The control device of the traction control system is a computer that monitors the speed of all four wheels and the steering wheel angle. When the car accelerates, if the computer detects an excessive speed difference between the driving wheels and non-driving wheels, it immediately determines that the driving force is too high and sends a signal to reduce the engine's fuel supply, thereby lowering the driving force and decreasing the slip rate of the driving wheels. The computer also uses the steering wheel angle sensor to understand the driver's steering intention, then employs the left and right wheel speed sensors to detect the speed difference between the wheels, assessing whether the car's turning degree matches the driver's steering intention.

What Causes the Failure to Start When Jump-Starting the Battery?

Currently, the inability to start the vehicle when jump-starting the battery is mainly caused by two issues: 1. One is a rescue problem, where the jumper cables are too thin, resulting in insufficient current, improper operation during jump-starting leading to loose or poor connections, or the rescue vehicle not being started, causing insufficient voltage and current. This requires ensuring that the rescue vehicle has sufficient voltage and current and using compliant jumper cables for standard operation. 2. The other issue is with the vehicle being rescued itself. The battery of the rescued vehicle may have been depleted multiple times, unable to hold a charge and severely damaged, or the rescued vehicle may have other starting-related faults besides insufficient voltage and current, such as flooded spark plugs from failed attempts to start, or a faulty fuel pump preventing the vehicle from starting. In such cases, it is necessary to seek professional repair services for rescue and maintenance or to tow the vehicle to the appropriate repair facility for troubleshooting.
