When the P0700 trouble code occurs, the vehicle should be promptly sent to a 4S shop or repair shop for maintenance. The appearance of the P0700 trouble code indicates a transmission fault, but specific data stream analysis is required. Generally, intermittent faults can be resolved by clearing the trouble code. Here is additional information: 1. Introduction to the P0700 trouble code: The P0700 trouble code refers to a transmission control system fault (Malfunction Indicator Lamp request). The Transmission Control Module (TCM or TCU) collects information from various sensors and the Engine Control Module to help the transmission determine when to shift gears, improving vehicle performance, ensuring smooth shifting, and enhancing fuel efficiency. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illuminates a yellow or red engine symbol on the dashboard when the control module detects a fault. This trouble code indicates that the Powertrain Control Module (ECU) has received a request from the Transmission Control System (TCU) to illuminate the MIL. 2. Possible causes of the fault: Insufficient gear oil or poor-quality gear oil; severe wear on gear tooth surfaces, leading to excessive meshing clearance; fatigue spalling or chipping of gear teeth; excessive wear on the intermediate shaft or second shaft, or severe wear on spline shafts and internal gear splines, resulting in excessive clearance; bent shafts or loose shaft locking components; loose bearings or damaged bearing cages; contact or rubbing of non-working parts of the shift fork, among other factors.

What are the methods to remove the ETC from a car?

Methods to remove the ETC from a car: 1. Find a bank card or any other unused card; 2. Press the bank card against the back of the device, use a hairdryer to heat the contact surface between the OBU device and the glass until it softens, then slowly remove it to avoid the small dot popping out; 3. After removal, use a wet wipe to clean any residue left on the windshield. ETC operates through microwave-dedicated short-range communication between the vehicle's electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane at toll stations, utilizing computer networking technology for backend settlement processing with banks, thereby achieving the goal of vehicles passing through toll stations without stopping to pay toll fees.

What are the symptoms of a broken shock absorber?

Symptoms of a broken shock absorber: 1. Oil leakage. Use a flashlight to inspect the shock absorber through the wheel arch. If oil leakage is found on the exterior of the shock absorber, it indicates damage; 2. Loose chassis. When driving on bumpy roads, if the vehicle body exhibits excessive bouncing or instability, it usually indicates a problem with the shock absorber; 3. Abnormal noises. If the shock absorber makes unusual noises while driving on bumpy roads, it is highly likely that the shock absorber is damaged; 4. Uneven tire wear. When the shock absorber is broken, the wheels will vibrate unevenly during driving, causing phenomena such as wheel tilting. This leads to severe wear on the part of the tire in contact with the ground, while the unaffected part remains unworn, resulting in uneven wear patterns.

Is there any impact if the fuel tank cap is not closed while driving?

There are impacts if the fuel tank cap is not closed while driving. The impacts include: 1. Safety issue: If there is an open flame or static electricity spark nearby, it can easily cause an explosion; 2. Fuel consumption issue: After the gasoline evaporates, the fuel decreases, making the fuel consumption appear extremely high; 3. Pollution issue: Gasoline contains benzene, and its evaporation affects the atmospheric environment during driving. The situations where the fuel tank cap cannot be opened are: the cap is stuck or the hinge of the fuel tank cap is rusty. The solution is: insert a small wooden piece into the gap of the fuel tank cap to pry it open, and remember to pull the latch switch of the fuel tank cap while prying.

Is it normal for Traffic Management 12123 to show 0 points?

It is normal for Traffic Management 12123 to show 0 points. Below are the specific explanations of the scoring methods: 1. Traffic Management 12123: Traffic Management 12123 accumulates points. When the accumulated points are 0, it means that the driver's license has not yet incurred any penalty points for illegal behaviors, and the license can be used normally. If it shows 12 points, you need to pay attention and handle the related illegal behaviors. 2. Alipay APP: It is normal for the Alipay APP to show 12 points. Alipay calculates deduction points differently from Traffic Management 12123. If it shows 0 points, you need to handle the records of illegal behaviors. If there are electronic camera violations, you can use another driver's license to help deduct points; otherwise, you will need to participate in full-point education and exams.
