Then, simply press the RST hole (reset button) on the center console screen to restore it to its initial state. Below is more information about the center console screen: Troubleshooting: Check if the display's power supply is functioning correctly. If not, replace the power supply module. Inspect the ribbon cable connection for any issues; replace the cable if necessary. Test whether the display is damaged by replacing it—if the issue resolves, the display is faulty. Check the host unit for malfunctions by examining the video output signal from the motherboard and testing with a replacement motherboard if needed. Functions of the Center Console Screen: It provides a rearview camera display, DVD playback, navigation, and control over the vehicle's door locks and window lift system.

I've been driving this Geely Vision for over three years now, and I've encountered the infotainment screen freezing a few times, mostly due to minor software glitches. The simplest solution is to park, turn off the engine, wait about half a minute, and then restart – the screen usually comes back to life. If that doesn't work, try holding down the power button on the infotainment screen for more than ten seconds to force a reboot; this trick has solved 90% of my issues. It's also worth checking the fuses – pop open the fuse box under the hood and see if the one corresponding to the infotainment system has blown, as occasional poor wiring connections can also cause problems. The screen is more prone to freezing in hot summer weather or when the system cache is full, so I've made it a habit to clear stored files every time I refuel and regularly visit the 4S shop for infotainment software updates to prevent recurrence. While freezing doesn’t affect driving safety, losing navigation and multimedia functions is quite annoying, so I always keep a paper map in my pocket just in case.

As a car enthusiast, I find it not too difficult to recover from a frozen infotainment screen on a Geely Vision. Start with the basics: turn off the engine and let the car rest for a while, then restart it to reset the system cache. If that doesn't work, perform a soft reset by long-pressing the power button—hold it down until the screen reboots, which usually fixes common issues. On the hardware side, check if the fuse is blown and replace the one labeled for the infotainment system in the fuse box. Frequent freezing could be due to software errors or outdated firmware, so it's advisable to connect to a mobile hotspot and download the latest update package from Geely's official website for automatic installation. If the screen freezes frequently, it might be caused by unstable power supply or aging wiring—DIY check the battery terminals for looseness. In short, avoid disassembling randomly; in most cases, functions return to normal after recovery. But if several attempts fail, it's safer to contact after-sales support.

As a new car owner, I panicked the first time my central control screen froze. Later, I learned a simple trick: park and turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, then restart to see if it recovers—usually it does. If not, hold down the central control power button for over ten seconds to force a reboot, but avoid hitting it hard to prevent damage. The cause is often a minor software glitch or overheating, so it's best to avoid running too many background apps and ensure proper ventilation. When the screen freezes, both music and navigation are lost, which can be quite inconvenient on long trips. That's why I now download offline maps on my phone as a backup. Safety first—if it doesn’t affect driving, don’t panic, and contact a Geely service center as soon as possible.

How Many Years Until a Motor Vehicle is Scrapped?

Private vehicles and commercial vehicles have different scrapping periods, as detailed below: Private Vehicle Scrapping Regulations: For 5-seat family cars and 7-seat SUVs, as well as non-commercial small and mini vehicles, there is no usage period limit. However, when the mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will recommend scrapping. In addition to the above, small and mini non-commercial passenger vehicles, large non-commercial cars, and wheeled special machinery vehicles also have no usage period restrictions. Common Commercial Vehicle Scrapping Regulations: Small and mini taxi passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger vehicles 10 years, and large taxi passenger vehicles 12 years. Public transport passenger vehicles have a scrapping period of 13 years, other small and mini commercial passenger vehicles 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger vehicles 15 years.

Piaggio Engine Lifespan?

Zongshen Piaggio offers a two-year or 20,000-kilometer warranty for the entire vehicle, and a three-year or 10,000-kilometer warranty for the engine. However, there may be differences for vehicles from different periods, so the standard at the time of purchase shall prevail. Below are the detailed descriptions: 3 Major Issues: This Piaggio engine has 3 major issues when new: loud noise, strong vibration, and high fuel consumption. Some owners don't want to drive it after just a few hundred kilometers. High Fuel Consumption During Break-in Period: When the vehicle is new, removing the spark plug and turning the magneto reveals that it is very tight. For a typical GY6 engine, turning it after removing the spark plug doesn't encounter much resistance. Therefore, this new vehicle consumes a significant amount of fuel. Secondly, the choice of engine oil is crucial as this engine is very sensitive to oil viscosity. Using the original 5W-40 oil or Shell Helix 5W-40 oil can basically keep the fuel consumption at around 3.6 liters per 100 kilometers.

What engine does the new Santana have?

The new Santana is equipped with an engine developed by the Volkswagen Group and produced by FAW-Volkswagen Engine (Chengdu) Co., Ltd. The engine model of the new Santana is EA211, with a maximum power of 82kw, a maximum torque of 145 Nm, and a maximum horsepower of 112Ps. Here are some daily maintenance methods for the new Santana's engine: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid failures, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate. When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing dirt back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from part wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, blocking the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine works properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What is the hardness range of hard chrome plating in HRC?

Hard chrome plating can achieve a hardness of 33-42 HRC. Introduction to hard chrome plating: Hard chrome plating is a plating process that deposits a relatively thick layer of chromium coating on various substrates, typically above 20μm in thickness. It utilizes chromium's properties to enhance the hardness, wear resistance, temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance of components. Functions of hard chrome plating: Hard chrome plating is a traditional surface electroplating technology that has been in use for over 70 years. The chromium coating can maintain surface brightness for extended periods, and the process is relatively simple with low costs. For a long time, chromium plating has been widely used not only as a decorative coating but also as a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant coating for mechanical components. The hard chrome plating technology is often employed to repair damaged parts.
