With the vehicle off but the power on, open the door and press the reset button on the vehicle body. If the light comes on, it indicates normal operation. With the vehicle powered on, press and hold the trip meter reset button for about ten seconds to use the reset function and clear the monitoring. Turn the key to position 2 to illuminate all dashboard lights, then simultaneously press the brake and accelerator pedals. Note that the brake may require slightly more effort as there is no power assist. Hold the SET button, then press the dashboard indicator light with your hand for approximately 3-5 seconds. A response indicates normal operation. The oil symbol will appear on the center of the dashboard. Press the corresponding menu items one by one until the warning light disappears.

What are the reasons for the poor cooling effect of the Mazda6 air conditioning?

Here is a detailed introduction about the poor cooling effect of the Mazda6 air conditioning: 1. Lack of refrigerant: Refrigerant wear is mainly due to leakage. If the condenser leaks, it needs to be replaced. When the leakage is severe, you can see oil stains on the surface of the condenser through the grille, which usually indicates a condenser leakage. 2. Damaged air conditioning flap: Damage to the air conditioning flap motor is relatively rare, but it does happen. The flap motor is usually located in the lower middle part of the instrument panel and serves as the main switch for the air conditioning vents. Once the flap is damaged, even if the air conditioning can produce cold air, it can only escape through gaps. 3. Dirty condenser: The main purpose of cleaning the radiator and condenser is to dissipate heat. If spring catkins and willow catkins accumulate on the condenser, it can cause issues such as high engine temperature or poor air conditioning performance. When cleaning, make sure to blow them away first before using a water gun to clean, otherwise, it may have the opposite effect, leading not only to poor air conditioning but also increased fuel consumption. 4. Damaged air conditioning compressor, throttle valve, or expansion valve: If the low pressure is high and the high pressure is low, the compressor needs to be replaced. Faults in the expansion valve or throttle valve directly result in poor air conditioning performance. These checks are relatively complex and require professional repair shops. 5. Aging or loose belt: Generally, during maintenance, the 4S shop will remind you to replace the belt. If it is not replaced, slipping may occur during use, leading to belt breakage, belt noise, loss of power assistance, and poor air conditioning performance.

What is the difference between SP and SN gasoline engine oils?

The differences between SN and SP engine oils are as follows: 1. Different viscosity levels: The difference between SN and SP engine oils lies in their thickness or viscosity (phosphorus content) at a certain temperature. SN engine oil has a relatively lower phosphorus content. 2. Different viscosity numbers: Comparing the viscosity of SN and SP oils, SP has a higher viscosity number, indicating that SP's oil film is stronger than SN's, providing better protective performance. Additionally, SP offers stable improvements over SN in terms of noise reduction, fuel consumption, and acceleration performance. SP represents the oil quality grade, where SG, SJ, SL, SM, and the subsequent SP are all grades of gasoline engine oils. SP is currently the highest grade of gasoline engine oil, and the higher the grade of the oil, the better its various technical indicators.

Where is the windshield washer button located?

The windshield washer button switch is generally located on the control stalk on the right side of the steering wheel. The design of the stalk may vary between different car models, but the principle of operating the washer fluid spray is basically the same. The windshield washer switch is the stalk on the right side of the steering wheel, which also serves as the wiper controller. Wiper Introduction: Wipers, also known as windshield wipers, are devices used to wipe away raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. How to Use Wipers: On rainy days, when raindrops fall on the windshield, the view ahead quickly becomes obstructed, making vehicles, pedestrians, and scenery appear blurry. At this point, turning on the wipers will restore clear visibility ahead.
