Methods to lubricate slow-moving window glass: 1. Lower the window glass completely and spray panel wax into the rubber seals on both sides of the glass; 2. Operate the window regulator again - sticking or sluggish movement should improve; 3. Lower the glass fully once more and reapply panel wax to both sides. Causes of slow window operation include: 1. Faulty regulator mechanism; 2. Aging motor with insufficient power; 3. Excessive resistance from deteriorated outer water seals or inner dust seals; 4. Overly tight window channels or foreign objects in the track. Automotive window regulators typically consist of: Operating mechanism (manual crank or electric controls), Transmission system (gears, gear plates/racks, or cable-driven mechanisms), Lifting mechanism (regulator arms and moving brackets), Glass support system (glass carriers), plus stop springs and balance springs.

Why is there a dotted line on the left rearview mirror?

The reason for the dotted line on the left rearview mirror is: A typical dual-curvature rearview mirror has a dotted line at about one-third of the outer side of the mirror. The area outside the dotted line has a smaller radius of curvature, mainly used to observe situations farther away from the side of the vehicle. The area inside the dotted line has a larger radius of curvature, used to observe situations closer to the side of the vehicle. The combination of these two curvatures helps minimize blind spots in the rearview mirror. The benefits of having a dotted line are: the inner section has a normal curvature with less distortion, while the outer section has a larger curvature, expanding the field of view, primarily enhancing left and right visibility. The downside is the difference between the inner and outer sections, which may cause some people to feel dizzy, and the expanded field of view is mainly limited to the outer area.

How to Distinguish New Energy Vehicle License Plates?

New energy vehicle license plates can be distinguished by the following methods: The color of the license plate is uniformly green (gradient green for household vehicles such as sedans and SUVs, and yellow-green for buses), and the number of digits on the plate has increased from the original 5 to 6. Elements distinguishing vehicle types have been added to the license plate information. In areas with tail number restrictions, vehicles with green license plates are exempt from tail number restrictions. New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new on-board power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving, resulting in advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures.
