How to completely resolve the P218800 fault code?

What are the reasons for ETC not being detected?

ETC not being detected can be due to the following reasons: 1. The electronic tag is not properly inserted; 2. Unauthorized removal of the vehicle's electronic tag will render it unusable; 3. The vehicle's windshield is covered with a metal explosion-proof film; 4. OBU transfer or replacement requires visiting a service outlet. ETC operates through dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle's electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane at toll stations. It utilizes computer networking technology to conduct background settlement processing with banks, achieving the purpose of allowing vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay fees.

Can you make a U-turn on a single yellow dashed line?

U-turns are allowed on yellow dashed lines, provided there are no signs prohibiting U-turns or left turns, or separate U-turn signal lights. Vehicles can make a U-turn without affecting normal traffic flow and ensuring safety. Situations where U-turns are permitted: Intersections with U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, a U-turn can be made. If there is a U-turn signal light, follow its instructions. If there is no signal light, make the U-turn based on the specific situation without obstructing other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit prohibitions: U-turns are allowed if there are no signs explicitly prohibiting U-turns or left turns. "No explicit prohibition" means the intersection lacks signs like "No U-turn," "No Left Turn," or solid center lines, in which case U-turns are permitted. Yellow grid lines also allow U-turns: Yellow grid lines are no-parking zones typically marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary stops, entrances/exits of important facilities, or other necessary locations. Stopping on these lines (including waiting for traffic lights) is a violation. However, while parking is prohibited, U-turns are allowed on yellow grid lines unless there is a central barrier, as they are equivalent to "U-turn permitted." Intersections with U-turn signal lights: If a U-turn signal light is present, follow its indication—only proceed on green. When "No Left Turn" and "U-turn Permitted" signs coexist: U-turns are allowed, but left turns are prohibited. Note that "No U-turn" is not the same as "No Left Turn." Things to note when making a U-turn: Check road markings: If the line is solid, U-turns are prohibited under any circumstances. Continue driving to find a suitable location. If there is a "No Left Turn" sign, even without a "No U-turn" sign, U-turns are not allowed at that intersection since U-turns inherently involve a left turn. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If you are in the second left-turn lane, U-turns are not permitted at that intersection. Always yield to oncoming traffic when making a U-turn. Proceed only if it does not interfere with straight-moving vehicles; otherwise, you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes often have guiding arrows. The leftmost lane may not always have a left-turn arrow—some lanes may have straight arrows. Even without explicit prohibitions, U-turns are not allowed in such cases. U-turns must not be made on pedestrian crosswalks, as this is also a traffic violation.

Is the squeaking sound normal when the electronic handbrake is engaged?

This is a normal phenomenon. There will be a sound from the motor when engaging or releasing the electronic handbrake. Below is some information about the electronic handbrake: 1. Introduction: The electronic handbrake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both achieving parking control through the friction generated between the brake disc and the brake pads, except that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. 2. Functions: In addition to basic functions such as static parking, static release (turning off), and automatic release (turning off), this system also includes auxiliary functions like automatic parking and dynamic parking.

How many years until the Baojun 510 is scrapped?

Non-commercial vehicles and commercial vehicles have different scrapping periods, as detailed below: Scrapping regulations for non-commercial vehicles: For family-use 5-seat sedans and 7-seat SUVs, there is no usage period limit for non-commercial small and mini vehicles. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide the scrapping. In addition to the above vehicles, small and mini non-commercial passenger cars, large non-commercial sedans, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage period limit. Common scrapping regulations for commercial vehicles: Small and mini taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 12 years. Bus passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 13 years, other small and mini commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 15 years. Mini commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 10 years. The vehicle scrapping process is as follows: The owner of the vehicle applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out an "Application Form for Vehicle Change, Transfer, Modification, Suspension, or Scrapping" and stamp it with the owner's seal. The registration department will accept the application and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrapping period. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping period, the vehicle inspection department will determine if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" if applicable. The owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The owner must submit the "Change Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the vehicle inspection department for verification and signature. The license plates will be reclaimed, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations. Special notes: According to Article 30 of the "Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle is damaged and cannot be driven back to the place of registration, the owner can hand over the scrapped vehicle to a local vehicle recycling company. If a commercial vehicle is converted to a non-commercial vehicle, it must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle's scrapping period. According to Article 43 of the "Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the vehicle transfer or cancellation registration, the original owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a newly purchased vehicle. The application to use the original license plate number must meet the following conditions: (1) The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation registration; (2) The owner must have owned the original vehicle for more than three years.
