Here are the reasons and solutions for an electric vehicle battery not charging: 1. Light sulfation: Perform balanced charging. You can carry out general activation charging (i.e., balanced charging) on the battery, usually lasting one to two days, to restore normal function. 2. Moderate sulfation: Perform "hydrotherapy" charging and discharging. "Hydrotherapy" charging and discharging is required to restore normal function. The specific method involves first adding pure water or dilute sulfuric acid with a density of 1.05g/cm3 to the battery until it reaches a liquid-rich state, then charging with a current of 0.05-0.018C2A for about 20 hours, draining the liquid, and then conducting a capacity test. Repeat the above steps until the battery capacity is restored. 3. Severe sulfation: Use a repair device. If the battery is severely sulfated, ordinary repair methods will no longer work. You can use the high-resistance repair function of a repair device to increase the voltage to above 10V before charging again, which may have a certain probability of reactivating the battery.

How to Determine When to Replace a Car Battery?

You can check the battery status by observing the color of the inspection window: green indicates the battery is in good condition; yellow indicates insufficient capacity; black means it needs to be replaced. If there is noticeable swelling, deformation, or bulging on both sides of the battery, or if white powdery substances appear around the terminals, it indicates that the battery needs replacement. If the battery has been used for a long time and frequently loses charge or cannot hold a charge, it may be time to consider replacing it.

What are the steps for overtaking?

Before overtaking, observe the rear vehicles and road conditions through the rearview mirror, and try to choose a time with good visibility and a straight road for overtaking. Turn on the left turn signal and honk the horn to indicate your intention. If honking is not allowed at night, use the method of alternately switching high beams instead. After confirming that the vehicle ahead has signaled to yield, slightly turn the steering wheel to the left and maintain a certain lateral distance from the vehicle being overtaken. Then downshift a gear, press the accelerator deeply to increase speed, and overtake from the left side of the vehicle being overtaken, minimizing the time the two vehicles are side by side. After overtaking, maintain the speed for a while, observe the following vehicles through the rearview mirror, and turn on the right turn signal to return to the original lane after confirming safety.
