The key circuit board shell is usually composed of two interlocking halves. Pry it open from the middle seam to see the circuit board and the button battery, then replace it with a new one. Here are some related information about Zotye Z300: 1. The Zotye Z300 is equipped with Mitsubishi 1.5L/1.6L all-aluminum high-efficiency engines, providing strong power. With the muscular lines on the front and rear bumpers, smooth body lines, and newly designed alloy wheels, the overall shape is very dynamic. The 2016 Z300 basically continues the design of the 2014 Z300 New Vision edition, but with some adjustments in details. The 2016 version adds chrome-plated borders for the front fog lights, chrome window trims, and chrome-plated exterior door handles. In addition, the four-wheel brake calipers of the new car are painted red, and the tail logo has also been optimized. 2. Its body dimensions are: length 4565mm, width 1766mm, height 1486mm, wheelbase 2700mm, and fuel tank capacity 55 liters.

I've disassembled the Zotye Z300 key several times, and the key lies in safety and meticulousness. The key shell is held together by plastic clips—don't force it open with brute strength, or you may damage the clips or the internal circuit board. Prepare a small flat-head screwdriver, gently insert it into a gap on the side of the key, and listen for the sound of the clips loosening as you pry. If it's stubborn, use a soft pad to cushion the operation and prevent parts from flying off. Inside, you'll find the circuit board and a coin-cell battery—be careful not to damage the buttons or the chip. When replacing the battery, note the correct polarity; otherwise, the key may malfunction. During reassembly, align the parts properly, press the clips firmly, and ensure the buttons function smoothly. Though the process is simple, taking it step by step is more reliable—don't rush.

Does Running a Red Light Capture the Front or Rear License Plate?

Running a red light captures the rear license plate. Electronic cameras take three photos to determine the violation: a photo of the vehicle crossing the intersection stop line, showing the red light and license plate number; a photo of the vehicle completely passing the stop line, showing the red light and license plate number; and a photo of the vehicle continuing to move, comparing the vehicle's position changes, showing the red light and license plate number. Capturing these three photos confirms the vehicle ran a red light. The act of running a red light is clearly defined in the Road Traffic Safety Law. Article 26 states that traffic signals consist of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light permits passage, and a yellow light serves as a warning. A red light is a traffic signal prohibiting passage, and if a vehicle passes through an intersection during a red light, it constitutes the traffic violation of running a red light. Six scenarios of running a red light: Stopping immediately after crossing the line at a red light (when the light turns red, the vehicle cannot stop in time, and the front of the vehicle crosses the stop line): If the vehicle has just crossed the stop line during a red light but stops immediately, this is not penalized as running a red light. However, if there is noticeable movement after crossing the line, it will be penalized. The three photos taken by electronic cameras for running a red light are: the front wheels crossing the stop line, the rear wheels crossing the stop line, and the front wheels crossing the opposite stop line. Only when all three photos are captured is it confirmed as running a red light, which incurs a 6-point deduction under the new regulations. Running a red light under police direction (the signal is red, but the traffic officer signals to proceed): When there is a conflict between the traffic signal and the officer's gesture, drivers must obey the officer's on-site command. If running a red light occurs due to the officer's direction, the driver can request a diversion certificate from the local traffic police station to avoid penalties. If the driver disputes the penalty, they can appeal through administrative reconsideration or litigation. Stopping after the entire vehicle crosses the line at a red light (failing to brake in time, causing the entire vehicle to cross the stop line): If the entire vehicle crosses the stop line but does not continue moving, it is not considered running a red light. However, this constitutes crossing the stop line, which, according to Article 4, Clause 5 of the Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Violations, results in a 3-point deduction for failing to drive or stop as required at an intersection. Reversing after crossing the stop line (attempting to avoid penalties by reversing after crossing the stop line at a red light): Vehicles are prohibited from reversing at railway crossings, intersections, one-way roads, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, or tunnels. Violators may receive a warning or fine. Accidentally running a red light behind a large vehicle (due to obstructed visibility, following the large vehicle through the intersection): Drivers must maintain sufficient visibility to see the traffic signals ahead and ensure a safe braking distance. Generally, if a vehicle behind a large vehicle is photographed, it is due to rushing through the intersection. This behavior is penalized as running a red light. Passing through an intersection during a yellow light (proceeding through the intersection as the light turns yellow): Traffic authorities state that Article 26 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China specifies that vehicles that have already crossed the stop line when the yellow light flashes may continue to proceed. If the driver accelerates through the intersection after the yellow light has turned red, it is considered running a red light if captured.

What grade of car is the Reiz?

Reiz is a sporty B-segment sedan. Reiz (REIZ) is the domestic name for the Japanese Toyota MARKX model. Here are the relevant details: 1. Exterior: The front fascia is aggressive, with an enlarged air intake grille on the bumper that resembles "green beans." The sharp headlight design exudes a fierce look, adding significant sportiness to the vehicle. The overall silhouette is quite balanced, with minimal changes in dimensions and no overly exaggerated lines, making it appealing to a broad audience. The front and rear wheel arches bulge outward, giving the Reiz a fuller appearance, while chrome trim strips below enhance its cohesive look. A small spoiler has been added to the rear, and the exposed exhaust pipe design further emphasizes its sporty character, appearing more assertive compared to the older model where it was hidden within the bumper. The taillights are equally sharp, connected by a chrome strip, lending the rear a more unified appearance. 2. Interior: The cabin primarily features black soft-touch materials paired with wood grain accents, conveying a mature and stable vibe—almost identical to the older model with little change. The dashboard follows a standard "T" layout, with buttons offering a solid tactile feel, and the craftsmanship is pleasantly surprising. 3. Features: The Reiz comes well-equipped, with standard features including xenon headlights, vehicle stability control, and the less common knee airbags. Higher trims add keyless start, paddle shifters, adaptive suspension, and intelligent parking assist. 4. Powertrain: Reiz's "V6 engine + front-engine rear-wheel-drive" setup, while not particularly high-tech, was traditionally perceived as "premium" at the time. The FR layout is another selling point, with higher trims offering FAD and AVS adaptive suspension systems. FAD adjusts damping based on road vibration feedback, while the more advanced AVS system actively tunes suspension stiffness, significantly enhancing the car's dynamic performance.

What to Do If the CO Emission Test Fails?

Based on the emission test results, perform the following repairs: 1. Slight exceedance of CO, HC, and NO: Possible causes include excessive spark plug gap, poor fuel injector atomization, significant carbon deposits and sludge in the cylinder, or failure of the catalytic converter and oxygen sensor. Check the air filter, spark plugs, intake air temperature sensor, and intake manifold pressure sensor. Add dual-core anti-wear repair agent and high-efficiency cleaner. If ineffective, use a catalytic converter cleaner to clean the catalytic converter. 2. CO and HC fail, NO passes: Possible causes include insufficient oxygen supply in the intake system, cylinder wear, carbon deposits in the cylinder, poor fuel injector atomization, or cylinder wear and carbon deposits. Install an energy-saving purification chip device, use a high-efficiency cleaner, and add a dual-core anti-wear repair agent. 3. Slight exceedance of CO and HC, severe exceedance of NO: Possible causes include overly lean air-fuel mixture, significant carbon deposits in the intake system and engine combustion chamber, multiple ignition points in the cylinder, or failure of the catalytic converter and oxygen sensor. After using a high-efficiency cleaner, add a dual-core anti-wear repair agent and clean the catalytic converter with a catalytic converter cleaner. 4. CO exceeds limits, HC and NO pass: Possible causes include overly rich engine air-fuel mixture, incomplete combustion, blocked intake system, worn fuel injectors, or severe cylinder wear. Check the air filter, spark plugs, and ignition timing. After using a high-efficiency cleaner, add a dual-core anti-wear repair agent. 5. CO and HC fail, NO passes with black smoke under heavy load: Possible causes include severe cylinder wear and significant drop in cylinder pressure. If a self-repair protective agent cannot effectively increase cylinder pressure, replace piston rings, cylinder liners, cylinder gaskets, or cylinder heads. 6. Severe exceedance of HC, slight exceedance of NO, CO passes: Possible causes include severe carbon deposits in the cylinder, poor exhaust flow, aged spark plugs, or crankcase leakage. After using a high-efficiency cleaner, it is recommended to replace with high-quality engine oil and add a dual-core anti-wear repair agent.

Can ETC be installed in the black area of the windshield?

ETC devices should not be installed in the black dotted area of the windshield as it affects normal operation. Installing ETC in the black dotted area has drawbacks, mainly weakening the solar charging capability of the device, which may lead to power depletion over time. Additionally, it's important to ensure that the ETC installation does not obstruct the driver's view. The optimal placement is directly behind the rearview mirror inside the vehicle, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics. For passenger cars, the ETC is typically installed in the upper middle section of the windshield, while for large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle section. The suitable installation height ranges between 1.2 meters and 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket anti-explosion films, which may interfere with microwave signal transmission, the ETC should be installed in the microwave window strip area. Here are key considerations for ETC installation: Avoid obstructing the driver's view, best installed behind the rearview mirror: Many vehicle models have windshields with significant rearward inclination, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. Installing the ETC without considering this may increase blind spots. Placing it on the right side behind the rearview mirror helps avoid view obstruction. Ensure uninterrupted charging: ETC electronic tags consume power but generally don't require manual charging or battery replacement as they feature a built-in solar panel for self-charging. Therefore, avoid installing in the windshield's black areas or positions that might shade the solar panel. Do not remove once installed: The adhesive backing contains an anti-tamper rod connected to a switch. When properly installed, the windshield presses this rod in. Removing the device causes the rod to pop out, triggering the switch and locking the tag, requiring an ETC service center visit for reactivation. This mechanism prevents multiple vehicles from sharing one device. ETC usage notes: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. Maintain at least 10 meters distance from the vehicle ahead to prevent erroneous charges if their ETC malfunctions. ETC lanes recognize vehicles at speeds up to 20 km/h; excessive speed may cause read failures. For debit card-linked ETC, insufficient balance will also result in failed transactions.

Where is the ETC installation location?

The ETC installation location is generally on the upper middle part of the front windshield horizontally. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation location is on the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, it should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is not processed by the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also needed, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Documents required for company vehicles: Introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the agent; original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be installed. Here are some precautions for ETC installation: Do not obstruct the view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large rearward tilt angle of the windshield, which reduces the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it may increase the driver's blind spot. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it arbitrarily once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever, connected to a switch underneath. Once the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Notes for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic toll payment for it. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle device information, leading to toll deduction failure. When using a debit card bound to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

What is the tire model for the ninth-generation Honda Accord?

The ninth-generation Accord comes with three tire specifications: 225/50R17, 215/60R16, and 235/45R18. In 225/50R17, the first number 225 represents the tire width of 225MM, 50 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 50%, meaning the section height is 50% of the width, and 17 denotes the rim diameter of 17 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. In 215/60R16, the first number 215 represents the tire width of 215MM, 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width, and 16 denotes the rim diameter of 16 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. In 235/45R18, the first number 235 represents the tire width of 235MM, 45 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 45%, meaning the section height is 45% of the width, and 18 denotes the rim diameter of 18 inches. The middle letter "R" stands for radial tire. The tire brand for the ninth-generation Accord is Dunlop, known for its good handling performance. The spare tire is non-full size. If you want to change the tire yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be under the vehicle. Check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not completely loosen the nuts; just enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts turn, not the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose. Repeat this step for all lug nuts and remove them completely; Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are hidden. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the tire also has the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, ZG for steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire. For practical use, such as: standard rim 5.00F.
