To determine if the wiper motor is damaged, first ensure the car's ignition switch is in the power-on state, open the front hood, and then activate the wipers. If you can hear the motor running, it is functioning normally; otherwise, the motor is likely damaged. Below are specific reasons for car wiper damage: 1. Clogged pipes. Frequently driving on unpaved roads allows tiny dust particles to enter the wiper's spray nozzles. Over time, the dust dries up and blocks the nozzles, preventing the wipers from spraying water. Simply insert a brush into the wiper spray nozzles to clean out the dust or attached debris, and turn on the wiper spray switch while cleaning. 2. Insufficient washer fluid. The wiper's washer fluid container is located in the engine compartment. If the water level is too low, it will also prevent water from spraying. In this case, simply add water to the washer fluid container. 3. The wiper's washer fluid container has enough water, but no water sprays when the switch is activated. Open the washer fluid filler cap and turn on the wiper spray switch.

What are the standards for adjusting car lights?

Drive the car onto a flat road, align the low beam points at a 30-meter distance and merge them together, then adjust the high beam points to be parallel to the ground. Below is relevant information about car light adjustment: 1. Low beam adjustment: Vehicle light adjustment typically involves the left-right and height alignment of low beams, which can be adjusted via the knobs behind the headlight assembly. Owners can adjust the lights themselves using tools. 2. Headlight adjustment: Lift the engine hood, locate the adjustment knobs at the rear of the headlight assembly, and use the appropriate tools for adjustment. Before adjusting, determine whether the knob controls left-right or up-down alignment. Park the vehicle directly facing a wall at a distance of about 10 meters, observe the height of the left and right lights, and use tape or other markers for measurement and comparison if necessary, then proceed with adjustment.

What Causes Abnormal Noise from the Exhaust Pipe?

Abnormal noise from the exhaust pipe can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Exhaust pipe aging: Caused by the aging of the exhaust pipe, which requires re-fixing or replacing the exhaust pipe. 2. Three-way catalytic converter failure: If the car's three-way catalytic converter fails, it cannot properly purify exhaust gases, leading to blockages and compression inside, resulting in abnormal noise from the exhaust pipe. In this case, it is necessary to visit a repair shop or 4S store for professional inspection and repair. 3. Car ignition system failure: If the car's ignition system fails, fuel cannot burn normally in the cylinders, leading to symptoms such as weak acceleration, easy stalling, and abnormal noise from the exhaust pipe. In this situation, a detailed inspection of the car's ignition system is also required.

Why does the clutch have air again after bleeding?

The possible reasons for the clutch having air again after bleeding are: 1. Reason one: Poor quality of hydraulic fluid with high water content. 2. Reason two: Air leakage in the clutch slave cylinder. 3. Reason three: Air leakage in the oil circuit or connections. Below is an introduction to related content: 1. Clutch: The clutch functions when the vehicle starts and shifts gears. At this time, there is a speed difference between the primary and secondary shafts of the transmission. The engine's power must be disconnected from the primary shaft before the synchronizer can effectively match the speed of the primary shaft with that of the secondary shaft. 2. Principle: After engaging the gear, the clutch connects the primary shaft to the engine's power again, allowing the power to continue transmitting.
