The ETC device on the car cannot be removed because there is an anti-tamper switch button on the back of the ETC device. After installation, this anti-tamper button presses against the windshield. If the device is removed, this button will automatically pop out, and the ETC service will be suspended. You will need to visit the relevant service center to reapply for positioning, installation, and activation before it can be used again. Precautions for Using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. When the vehicle in front stops, to prevent the ETC device of the front vehicle from malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, you should maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the front vehicle to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the front vehicle. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20km/h. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, which will also result in a failed deduction. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, will cause the electronic tag to become invalid. You can take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for inspection. If the loosening or detachment is not due to human factors, it only needs to be reactivated.

How to Remove Fishy Odor from Car Carpets?

To eliminate fishy odor from car carpets, use cleaning agents, soaking methods, etc. Methods: Shake off the dust from the carpet and lay it flat on a clean surface. Sprinkle an appropriate amount of cleaning agent on the carpet surface, then scrub repeatedly with a brush to remove stains. Rinse the carpet thoroughly to remove all water. When soaking the carpet in water, avoid leaving it submerged for too long—ideally no more than 15 minutes. After cleaning, rinse directly and dry in the sun. Note: When using a high-pressure water gun for rinsing, adjust the nozzle to a spray mode and avoid using high-pressure direct flow. Ensure the cleaning process is thorough; otherwise, residual detergent may become visible after drying, affecting the carpet's appearance.

What to Do If Your Car Is Scratched While Parked on the Roadside and the Culprit Can't Be Found?

If your car is scratched while parked on the roadside, you can check surveillance footage, report to the police, and other methods.

What are the causes of car headlight failure?

Car headlight failure is caused by poor circuit contact. Failure causes: The reasons for sudden car headlight failure include burnt-out bulbs, overheated wires, damaged relays or combination switches, open or short circuits in wires, blown fuses, and poor circuit contact. Solutions: Check if the fuse is blown. If all lights are on, it indicates a problem with the dimmer switch. If the high beam and low beam do not light up when the wiring is connected, the fault lies between the dimmer switch and the headlights or between the dimmer switch and the low beam. Due to prolonged use, the mirror surface (headlight) may age or crack, leading to light failure or insufficient brightness, necessitating headlight replacement.

Should the Brake Be Kept Pressed All the Time?

When waiting at a red light, it is best to keep the brake pressed. From the perspective of personal safety, pressing the brake maximizes the parking of the car, preventing it from rolling backward or forward. Whether the vehicle is manual or automatic, it is best to keep the brake pressed when waiting at a red light, but do not press too hard—lightly pressing the brake pedal is sufficient. Below are additional details about pressing the brake when waiting at a red light: 1. For manual transmission vehicles, do not forget to shift to neutral: (1) If waiting for several tens of seconds, also engage the handbrake. (2) If only a few seconds are needed, the handbrake may not be necessary. 2. For automatic transmission vehicles encountering a red light, note the following: (1) If the wait is short, keeping the car in D gear while pressing the brake will not cause any issues. (2) If the wait is long, shift to N gear. If the car remains in D gear, the engine will be running, and prolonged brake pressing may increase the load on the transmission.
