How to Change ETC When Changing Cars?
1 Answers
After changing cars, the ETC processing methods are as follows: If you change both the car and the license plate, you need to cancel the original ETC. Bring relevant documents and drive to a bank branch to reapply for an ETC device, then rebind the ETC card to the new device. If you change the car but keep the same license plate, go to the ETC service point to re-enter the vehicle and owner information to reactivate the ETC. ETC Installation Method: Sensor Installation. ETC devices are uniformly installed on the inside of the car's front windshield, next to the rearview mirror. They come with a plastic suction cup to attach to the windshield. Choose a location that does not obstruct the driver's front view. Sensor Wiring Installation. Plug the sensor's wiring harness into the sensor's connection port. The wiring harness connects through the car's internal network, branching out from the vehicle's intelligent information system. Wrap the harness along the interior roof trim panel—no need to dismantle the interior; simply press it into place to neatly hide the wiring. Insert the Card into the ETC Sensor. Gently insert the side of the card with the chip into the ETC sensor's card slot. The sensor detects the chip and reads the express card. If inserted correctly, the sensor's display will light up and show "Start Billing," indicating a successful connection between the sensor and the express card. ETC Working Principle: Through the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, it communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at toll stations via dedicated short-range communication. This uses computer networking technology to process backend settlements with the bank, allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping while automatically paying the toll.
