When a car battery is low on power, the charging methods are: 1. Use the generator to charge the battery automatically; 2. Position the fronts of two cars facing each other, open the hood, take out the charging clamps, and connect the positive clamps to the positive terminals of both car batteries, and the negative clamps to the negative terminals. The battery, also known as a storage battery, is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy, serving as a DC power source. Its functions include: 1. Providing a strong starting current to the starter when starting the engine; 2. Assisting the generator in supplying power to electrical devices when the generator is overloaded; 3. Supplying power to electrical devices when the engine is idling.

Can 12123 perform vehicle annual inspection?

Can vehicle inspections be conducted during the National Day holiday?

Generally, vehicle inspections cannot be conducted during the National Day holiday. Inspection intervals: The inspection interval is once every two years for vehicles within six years of their first registration, and once every year thereafter. The inspection month is based on the month indicated on the vehicle registration certificate. The first step of the inspection is the exhaust emission test, which controls engine exhaust emissions and can also detect whether the vehicle's engine is "indigesting," whether it is in optimal working condition, and of course, whether it is fuel-efficient. Pay attention to the vehicle's appearance: The vehicle's appearance should not be too "flashy" according to personal preferences, otherwise it may fail the inspection. Unnecessary modifications not only cost more money but also may not pass the inspection. Moreover, the vehicle's identity must be verified—do not replace the vehicle body or engine without authorization. Also, do not purchase vehicles of "unknown origin," as this may lead to trouble or even legal consequences.

What are the reasons for ETC tag failure?

ETC tag failure is caused by the user's unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or due to the loosening or detachment of the ETC electronic tag. User's unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device: When receiving a new ETC device, if the ETC anti-tamper switch on the back is pressed and the red light briefly turns on, the OLED display will show "ETC tag invalid," indicating that the ETC electronic tag is not activated. This is a normal phenomenon. If the ETC failure is due to this reason, you can visit the bank branch where the ETC service was processed or the highway service office to apply for a reset. ETC electronic tag loosening or detachment: This can occur if there was no protective linkage during installation. You can bring your ID card, driver's license, and the electronic tag to a customer service center to apply for a replacement. How ETC works: The ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) system is currently the most advanced toll collection method for roads and bridges worldwide. It uses microwave-based dedicated short-range communication between the onboard electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at the toll station. This, combined with computer networking technology for backend bank settlement processing, allows vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping to pay toll fees.
