I've been driving my Buick Excelle for several years, and the maintenance light occasionally comes on. I'm quite familiar with the reset procedure. First, don't start the engine—just turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard. Then, press the menu button on the left side of the steering wheel a few times to navigate to the vehicle information page. There, you'll find an option for oil life or maintenance reminder. Select reset and confirm, and the light will turn off. Stay focused during the process—if you select the wrong menu, you might get stuck and have to start over. I do this myself after every maintenance to avoid the annoying flashing light. Remember, the light is a genuine reminder that it's time for an oil change or service—don’t just reset it without taking action, or you risk engine problems. Mastering this skill is simple and practical, saving you a trip to the repair shop and extra costs.

What does cruise mean on a car?

CRUISE on a car refers to the electronic cruise control system. The following is an introduction to the methods of activating and using cruise control. Activating cruise control: First press the CRUISE button to activate the cruise module. When the dashboard displays CRUISE, the vehicle must reach a speed above 40 km/h to enable cruise control. After reaching 40 km/h, press the SET button to activate cruise control. Speed adjustment: Speed can be increased or decreased using the + and - buttons. Pushing the lever upward increases the speed, while pushing it downward decreases the speed. Holding it in position will rapidly increase or decrease the speed. Canceling cruise control: Pressing the accelerator or pushing the lever downward will temporarily deactivate the function. Releasing the accelerator or pushing the lever inward will automatically restore the function. The CANCEL button is used to deactivate cruise control.

What Causes Heavy Clutch Pedal?

The reasons for a heavy clutch pedal are: air leakage in the pipeline system, wear of the cylinder piston seal ring, poor sealing of the exhaust valve, too small free travel (clutch set too high), restricted movement of the release bearing seat on the sleeve (sticking), issues with the clutch pressure plate or foreign objects inside it, sticking of the hydraulic clutch master or slave cylinder, or insufficient air pressure in air-assisted clutches. The clutch is located within the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission, secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws. The output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. While driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby interrupting or transferring the engine's power to the transmission.

Can a car be started while charging?

It is possible to start a car while it's charging, but it is not recommended. Attempting to start the engine may fail because the charger's current is usually too low to power the starter effectively. It's better to charge the battery for a while before attempting to start the car. When starting the engine, the required high current mainly comes from the battery itself. If the battery is not sufficiently charged, it won't be able to provide the necessary starting current, making it difficult to start the car. The battery is a crucial and consumable component of a car. When the engine is off, the battery supplies power to all the vehicle's electrical systems. Once the engine is running, the alternator takes over the role of powering the electrical systems.

What is the reason for the frequent jumping of the self-priming pump?

The reasons for the frequent jumping of the self-priming pump are: 1. The delivery distance is long, the height is high, the required pressure is large, and the pressure set on the pressure controller cannot meet the usage requirements. You can first open the controller cover and then use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the central adjustment knob clockwise upwards to obtain higher pressure; 2. There is no gas in the pressure tank on the self-priming pump. You can unscrew the inflation nut on the pressure tank and use an air pump to add gas inside so that the pressure tank can play a stabilizing role; 3. When the user installs the self-priming pump, the inlet and outlet are not equipped with a check valve, causing the water to quickly return after the pump stops. After the outlet pressure drops and falls below the preset pressure, the fully automatic self-priming pump will start again. The solution is to install a check valve at the outlet of the self-priming pump; 4. If the faucet is not closed properly or there is water leakage elsewhere, causing the outlet pressure to drop, the self-priming pump will also start automatically. Check the faucet's closing status and find where there is leakage to solve the problem; 5. If a fully automatic self-priming pump that has been used for a while was previously in good condition but suddenly starts and stops frequently, it may be due to a faulty automatic switch. You can replace the automatic switch to see if the fault persists.

How to Deal with Peeling Car Paint?

To address peeling car paint, it is recommended to visit a reputable professional auto detailing shop or 4S store. The process involves removing the peeling area, sanding it smooth, and then reapplying clear coat and wax. The causes of car paint peeling include improper repainting procedures or poor-quality clear coat. Methods to prevent paint peeling are: 1. Properly prepare the base material surface before painting; 2. Use the correct metal surface treatment agent and begin painting within half an hour of preparation to prevent rust on the base material surface; 3. Choose high-quality paint products; 4. Dilute the paint to the required viscosity range with the appropriate thinner; 5. Apply primer using the correct technique, ensuring the primer layer is fully cured before applying the topcoat.

How to Use the ABS Anti-lock Braking System?

The method of using the ABS anti-lock braking system: 1. When driving a car equipped with ABS, do not be too casual; tailgating, sharp turns, or forced lane changes are very dangerous; 2. The ABS system does not activate every time you brake; it only works when the wheels are close to locking up; 3. Some experienced drivers who are used to driving cars without ABS are accustomed to improving braking effectiveness by repeatedly pressing the brake pedal during emergency braking. In a car with ABS, this operation is already automated, so this method is not only unnecessary but also hinders the normal operation of the ABS system. The correct way is to keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal without releasing it during braking; 4. The ABS system is reliable and has a relatively low failure rate. If the ABS light suddenly comes on, do not panic. Drive the car steadily to a professional repair shop for inspection. If both the ABS and handbrake lights come on simultaneously, it indicates that there may be a serious problem with the vehicle's braking system. You should immediately slow down, pull over, and wait for assistance.
