ETC needs to be reactivated after it falls off and is reinstalled. The installation process for the ETC device is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and a red light will briefly illuminate. The OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning properly. Clean the front windshield, ensuring the glass surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and stick it to the installation position. Press firmly 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 windshield. The chip should be inserted into the OBU device. Method to activate the ETC device: Insert and remove the ETC card twice until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If the screen shows "Tag Invalid" when inserting and removing the card twice without the electronic tag attached, this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth directly. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag). Navigate to the device activation interface. Click "Connect Device" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt.

Where to Turn On the Reversing Radar?

The reversing radar generally does not need to be manually turned on. Once the vehicle is shifted into reverse gear, the radar host automatically powers on and starts working. The full name of the reversing radar is reversing anti-collision radar, also known as a parking assist device. It informs the driver of the surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive displays, helping the driver eliminate blind spots and unclear vision, thereby improving driving safety. The radar probe emits sound waves, which reflect back upon encountering obstacles. The radar probe can also receive the reflected sound waves. Based on the time it takes for the sound waves to return and their speed, the radar can determine the distance between the vehicle body and the obstacle. If the distance is too close, an alert sound will be emitted inside the vehicle.

Are Position Lights the Same as Small Lights?

Position lights, also known as small lights, are designed to make the vehicle noticeable in dark environments. For instance, when temporarily parked or taking a short break by the roadside, failing to turn on these lights may lead to hazards such as collisions due to poor visibility. Below is related information: Introduction to Hazard Warning Flashers: Commonly referred to as 'double flashing,' both front and rear turn signals blink in a regular pattern. These are used when the vehicle encounters a malfunction or other situations (such as leading a convoy during transport). The concept utilizes the turn signals but with adjusted control logic—while turning activates either the left or right signal, hazard warning activates both simultaneously. Introduction to Headlights: These include low beam and high beam lights. The difference between them becomes particularly evident when switching between the two.

What is the reason for the Mercedes GLK's reverse radar not making any sound?

Mercedes GLK's reverse radar not making any sound is due to issues such as a faulty buzzer or loose radar host wiring. Specific reasons and solutions are as follows: Faulty buzzer: The reverse radar consists of a host, display, probes, and a buzzer. The probes are installed on the front and rear bumpers of the vehicle to better observe parking distance. If the buzzer is faulty, the reverse radar will not sound. The solution is to repair it. Loose radar host wiring: If the reverse radar is not sounding, first check if the host's power cable is properly connected and if there is current. Then check if the radar host wiring is loose, which can cause the radar to have no sound. The solution is to reconnect it.

How Often Should You Change Your Car's Transmission Oil?

Car transmission oil should be changed every two to three years. The primary function of transmission oil is to keep the gear system clean and to lubricate the transmission components, thereby extending their lifespan. Generally, transmission oil includes manual transmission oil and automatic transmission oil. Manual transmission oil is commonly referred to as gear oil, while automatic transmission oil is of a higher grade and is also known as transmission fluid. Importantly, regular gear oil cannot be used in automatic transmissions; automatic transmission fluid must be used instead. Both gear oil and transmission fluid should be selected according to the specific model of the vehicle to ensure proper protection for the transmission. Typically, manual transmission vehicles use gear oil primarily for lubricating the gears, whereas automatic transmission vehicles use automatic transmission fluid mainly for lubricating the transmission and facilitating power transfer.
