The "small wrench" that appears on the dashboard of the Chery Arrizo 5 is a maintenance indicator, reminding the driver that the vehicle needs timely maintenance. If maintenance is not completed, this light will remain on. The method to reset this indicator is as follows: 1. Turn off the ignition switch; 2. Press and hold the adjustment rod at the lower right of the dashboard without releasing; 3. Turn on the ignition switch, rotating it to the "ON" position; 4. After approximately 5 seconds of the ignition switch being on, the maintenance indicator light will turn off, and you can then release the adjustment rod. After vehicle maintenance, it is essential to reset the maintenance counter; otherwise, you won't be able to accurately track the usage time of new parts during the next replacement.

I also encountered the wrench light issue with my own Arrizo 5. The reset method is quite straightforward: First, turn the key to the OFF position to shut off the engine. Then, press and hold the TRIP button on the instrument panel without releasing it, turn the key to the ON position but don't start the engine, keep holding for about five to six seconds until the wrench light on the dashboard flashes and disappears. This light serves as a reminder for scheduled maintenance—Arrizo 5 typically requires an oil change inspection every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers. While this DIY procedure is simple and convenient, if the light reappears after resetting or if maintenance is overdue, the system may require a professional reset. It's advisable to visit a 4S shop promptly for expert diagnosis to prevent minor issues from escalating. Regular maintenance extends your car's lifespan and prevents roadside breakdowns. After each maintenance session, my wrench light resets properly, giving me greater peace of mind while driving.

With years of car experience, here's how to reset the wrench light: Turn the key to OFF, hold down the TRIP button, then turn the key to ON (don't start the engine), and wait patiently for about 10 seconds until the light goes off. This wrench icon is actually a maintenance reminder - follow the Arrizo 5's service intervals as per the manual. Stay patient during operation and keep the button firmly pressed. If the light persists, it might indicate battery issues or sensor faults. I recommend checking your battery voltage or visiting a repair shop to eliminate risks. Remember to reset the system after maintenance to ensure timely reminders next time.

When the wrench light came on in my Arrizo 5, I fixed it this way: Turn the key to OFF, press the TRIP button, turn the key to ON without starting the engine, hold for a few seconds and the light disappears. This light tells you the car needs maintenance, usually every 5,000 kilometers or six months. The operation is simple and takes just two minutes, saving you a trip to the repair shop. Proper maintenance makes the car more fuel-efficient and extends engine life.

Does Traction Control System Failure Affect the Vehicle?

Traction control system failure does affect the vehicle and may lead to the following issues: 1. Fuel system malfunction: Causes reduced fuel injection, such as clogged injectors, low fuel pressure, or impurities in gasoline. 2. Inaccurate air measurement: Results in discrepancies between detected and actual air intake. If detected intake is lower than actual, the PCM-calculated fuel injection will be less than required, causing oxygen sensor feedback to indicate a lean mixture, prompting the PCM to increase fuel injection and positive fuel trim values. 3. Inaccurate closed-loop feedback signals: For example, faulty oxygen sensors.

What Causes the Buzzing Sound in Car Audio?

The reason for the buzzing sound in car audio is that the amplifier's input signal cable uses shielded wiring, and the cable's mesh layer needs to be grounded. The power wiring of the amplifier should be connected from back to front, and the power should not be connected at the input end. During amplifier wiring, there should be no grounding phenomenon in the middle, as grounding is equivalent to creating a ground loop, causing eddy current crosstalk. Here are some solutions for the buzzing sound in car audio: 1. If the amplifier device malfunctions, it is likely due to poor contact (loose connection), causing the buzzing sound in the car audio. In this case, you need to locate the loose connection and secure it properly. 2. If the issue is due to poor-quality speakers, you should negotiate with the supplier, as this involves the design and installation of the audio system. It is best left to professionals. 3. If the buzzing sound increases with the throttle, it is highly likely due to a grounding issue (caused by ground potential difference). In this case, the amplifier's grounding needs to be addressed. However, this task is quite complex and involves many integrated circuits. Incorrect wiring may pose safety risks. 4. The most straightforward solution is to install an audio filter, which can completely eliminate the current-induced noise.

How Many Years Can a New Car Be Exempt from Inspection?

New cars are exempt from inspection for six years, during which they can enjoy two opportunities for exemption from on-site vehicle inspection. Owners of new cars that qualify for exemption only need to collect the annual inspection sticker every two years during the exemption period, without having to undergo on-site inspection. If the vehicle does not qualify for exemption, it must undergo annual inspection according to the relevant regulations for motor vehicle inspection. The following are the specific conditions for the six-year exemption policy for new cars: 1. The motor vehicle must be a non-commercial vehicle; 2. The vehicle's approved passenger capacity must be six or fewer; 3. The vehicle type specified on the driving license must be a sedan, micro ordinary passenger car, micro off-road passenger car, small ordinary passenger car, small off-road passenger car, or small special passenger car; 4. The registration date must be after September 1, 2010; 5. The vehicle must meet all the above conditions and must not have been involved in any traffic accidents causing casualties during the exemption period.

Should All New Cars Be Equipped with Engine Guards?

It is advisable to install an engine guard for new cars. The primary function of an engine guard is to prevent impacts from road surfaces or gravel on the engine. Some vehicle models come with factory-installed guards, while the majority require aftermarket installation. Here are the specific types of engine guards available: 1. Steel: More affordable and currently the most popular choice among car owners. Its advantage lies in its high hardness, effectively protecting against threats from mud, stones, or undercarriage scrapes. 2. Reinforced Resin: Lighter in weight compared to steel guards, it can also resist mud and stones. However, its overall strength is inferior to steel, making it unable to withstand high-impact damages like undercarriage scrapes. 3. Hard Plastic: Its benefits include light weight and low cost. Many vehicle models come with factory-installed plastic guards, but they have poor durability and can only protect against minor scratches. 4. Aluminum Alloy: Priced similarly to steel guards, its advantage is being lighter than steel, thus not adding extra fuel consumption. However, in terms of hardness, aluminum alloy is far inferior to steel guards.

How to Repair a Scratch Line on a Car?

There are several methods to repair a scratch on a car: 1. Scuff: If the car has a scuff, the repair method involves filling the damaged area with a coating agent that matches the car body. 2. Minor Scratch: Clean the scratched area and apply primer. Wait for the primer to dry before applying paint. 3. Small Scratch: If it's just a very shallow scratch on the surface paint, immediately treat it with a compound. 4. Deep Scratch Without Exposing Primer: Apply touch-up paint, wait for it to dry completely, and then apply fine wax. 5. Deep Scratch Exposing Primer: Wash and dry the car, apply rust remover to the scratch, wait for 10~15 minutes, wipe off the rust remover with a tissue, and then proceed with touch-up paint.
