Check if there are any loose connections in the wiring. If present, this can cause the central control screen to go black; simply reconnect the loose parts properly. It might be due to aging of the power signal cable. Try replacing it with a new one. If the black screen issue is resolved, it indicates a problem with the power signal cable. A faulty power supply module can not only cause lag but also lead to a black screen in severe cases. It could also be due to defects in the circuit design.

A few days ago, my Kia K2 also had a black screen on the dashboard, which was really annoying. I remember that simply turning off and restarting the engine didn't work, so I opened the hood to check the fuse box. Sure enough, the fuse labeled INSTRUMENT near the battery was burnt black. I went to an auto parts store, bought a new one, replaced it, and everything went back to normal. If the fuse is fine, it might be a loose or oxidized connection. Try unplugging and firmly reconnecting the plug behind the dashboard. Some car owners reported that it could be due to a software bug, so disconnecting the negative battery terminal for a minute and then reconnecting it might reset the system. However, if the problem keeps recurring, it's best to take it to a professional shop to check the module. The dashboard integrates too many sensors, so avoid tampering with it yourself to prevent short circuits.

A common issue with the Kia K2 dashboard black screen at repair shops is often caused by a blown fuse or poor wiring contact. Check the FUSE position in the passenger-side fuse box; dashboard-related fuses are prone to blowing due to power surges—replace with an original-spec fuse. Next, check for loose or corroded wiring harness connectors; spray with electronic cleaner and reconnect. If the screen still doesn't light up, the combination meter module may be damaged and require replacement—best diagnosed with a scanner reading fault codes. Before repairs, disconnect the battery to prevent short circuits, and avoid disassembling it yourself to prevent PCB damage. Regularly check battery voltage to maintain stable circuits and prevent similar issues.

Is there a requirement for the distance between the left and right sides in the reverse parking test for Subject 2?

For the reverse parking test in Subject 2, the optimal distance between the corner of the parking space and the vehicle body is 30cm. There might be some discrepancy when observing the distance between the vehicle body and the corner of the parking space through the rearview mirror. Estimating the distance between the rear wheel's contact point and the corner of the parking space via the rearview mirror can have errors, so it's essential to practice more to get accustomed to these discrepancies. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Scoring criteria: Not following the designated route or sequence results in failure; the vehicle body crossing the line results in failure; failing to park properly results in failure; stopping midway results in failure. 2. Tips: Start reversing by turning the steering wheel one and a half turns to the right, observe the top of the wheel in the right rearview mirror, and ensure it's about 40cm away from the right line of the parking space to avoid pressing the line during reverse parking.

How to Repair Steering Wheel Leather Wear?

For steering wheel leather wear, you can visit a professional repair shop where technicians will perform leather cosmetic treatment based on the specific condition. After professional treatment, the repaired leather will show almost no visible traces of repair. Here are some relevant details: 1. Car Steering Wheel: The steering wheel is generally connected to the steering shaft via splines, and its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. 2. Steering Wheel Vibration: Steering wheel vibration is one of the most common vehicle issues encountered during daily driving, especially when the vehicle has been driven between 50,000 to 70,000 kilometers. Steering wheel vibration and body resonance can lead to unsafe driving conditions.

What is the Scrap Life of Imported Vehicles?

Imported vehicles' scrap life depends on their classification. For private passenger cars, there is no specific scrap life. According to Article 5 of the 'Mandatory Scrap Standards for Motor Vehicles', the service life limits for various types of motor vehicles are as follows: 1. Passenger vehicles: Small and micro rental passenger vehicles have a service life of 8 years, medium rental passenger vehicles 10 years, and large rental passenger vehicles 12 years. 2. Training vehicles: Small training passenger vehicles have a service life of 10 years, medium training passenger vehicles 12 years, and large training passenger vehicles 15 years. 3. Others: For small and micro rental passenger vehicles (excluding pure electric vehicles) and motorcycles, relevant departments of provincial, autonomous region, and municipal governments may establish stricter service life regulations based on local conditions, but small and micro rental passenger vehicles must not be less than 6 years, three-wheeled motorcycles not less than 10 years, and other motorcycles not less than 11 years. Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles, large non-operational cars, and wheeled special machinery vehicles have no service life restrictions.

What kind of engine oil is suitable for Toyota Vios?

Toyota Vios is suitable for engine oil with a viscosity of 5W-30. Mainstream engine oil brands include: Mobil, Castrol, Shell, and Dusuo Lubricants. Here is more information about engine oil: 1. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), serves functions such as lubrication and wear reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion prevention, and shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. 2. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component, determining the basic properties of the lubricant, while additives compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil, providing certain new properties. They are an important component. 3. The winter viscosity grades for lubricants are: 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, 25W. The symbol 'W' stands for winter, and the smaller the number before 'W', the lower the low-temperature viscosity, the better the low-temperature fluidity, and the lower the applicable minimum temperature. 4. The summer viscosity grades for lubricants are: 20, 30, 40, 50. The larger the number, the higher the viscosity and the higher the applicable maximum temperature.

Can Power Banks Be Left in Cars?

Power banks should not be left in cars for extended periods as it poses significant risks. A power bank is a portable charger that individuals can carry with them, capable of storing electrical energy primarily for charging handheld mobile devices and other consumer electronics (such as wireless phones and laptops), especially in situations where external power sources are unavailable. Here are the reasons why power banks should not be stored in cars: 1. Battery: Power banks typically contain lithium-ion batteries. 2. High interior temperatures: Under direct sunlight, the enclosed environment inside a car can reach temperatures exceeding 80 degrees Celsius. 3. Risk of explosion: Batteries are prone to exploding under high temperatures. 4. Health hazards: Even if they do not explode, prolonged exposure can cause lithium-ion batteries to negatively impact human health.
