How to Maintain a Pure Electric Vehicle?
1 Answers
Introduction to the maintenance of pure electric vehicles: 1. Maintenance of the exterior and motor of a pure electric vehicle: The first step in maintaining an electric vehicle is an exterior inspection, which includes checking the steering wheel, seat belts, various switches inside the car, and whether the combination instrument is functioning normally. It also involves verifying the functionality of the lights and horn, the aging degree of components like the wipers, the inflation condition of the tires, and whether there is any damage or wear. Electric vehicles require checking the antifreeze, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid. Electric vehicles also have antifreeze, but unlike traditional vehicles, the antifreeze is used to cool the motor and needs to be replaced according to the manufacturer's specified time, generally every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. The type of antifreeze is exactly the same as that of traditional cars. Gear oil (transmission oil) is a fluid that needs to be replaced more frequently in electric vehicles, but the replacement cycle varies by manufacturer. 2. Maintenance of the battery pack of a pure electric vehicle: The battery pack is the most critical part of the chassis inspection. The battery pack is usually composed of about a hundred independent batteries, and in case of a malfunction, it is generally repaired professionally by the manufacturer. During vehicle maintenance, the 4S shop will visually inspect the battery for damage and connect to a computer to check for any fault records in the battery. In addition, electric vehicles are equipped with an onboard terminal system, which is used to monitor the battery status of the vehicle and upload it to the manufacturer's server and government server. In case of abnormal battery status and potential danger, the owner will be notified. Chassis inspection includes issues such as chassis damage, deformation, loose screws, and fluid leakage.
