Solutions for windshield washer not spraying water: 1. If only one side of the washer has a problem: (1) Use a sewing needle, pin, or very thin steel wire to poke. (2) First spray out the remaining windshield washer fluid, then use an air gun to blow into the clogged nozzle. 2. If both sides have spraying issues, it might be due to low washer fluid, hose, filter, or motor problems. Follow these steps: (1) Check if the washer fluid is low and refill it before trying again. (2) Inspect the hose for damage or loose connections. (3) Check the motor and its wiring. Have someone operate the spray button inside the car while another person opens the engine compartment to listen for any sound from the washer motor. If the sound is very weak, the motor might be faulty. If there's no sound and the wiring is fine, it's likely a motor failure. (4) If the issue is with the washer motor itself, first check if the filter is clogged. A clogged filter can be repaired, such as by removing the hose from the nozzle side, opening the washer fluid filler port, and using an air gun to blow through the hose. The water in the washer tank will be blown out through the filler port, and any dirt on the filter will also be expelled. For other issues, it's best to consult professionals at a 4S shop.

What causes water leakage in the interior dome light?

Water leakage in the interior dome light may be caused by improper sealing of the sunroof or gaps in the roof lining. More information about interior dome lights is as follows: 1. Interior dome lights are installed in various cabin locations to facilitate safe entry/exit at night and map reading while driving. 2. When designing the layout, the light switch (SW) should be operable from both front and rear seats. SW typically has three positions: ON, OFF, and door-linked mode. To minimize light thickness, 5~10W bulb units are commonly used. For spacious cabin illumination requirements, bulbs with 8~30W power are generally employed.

Why does the car AC make noise and not cool when turned on?

Reasons for car AC making noise and not cooling when turned on are as follows: 1. Belt slipping: The AC compressor is driven by the engine crankshaft via a belt. If the belt is loose, aged, severely worn, or the pulley tension is insufficient, it can cause the belt to slip, resulting in a hissing noise. 2. AC compressor failure: When the AC switch is turned on, the AC compressor starts operating. If the compressor is damaged, it may produce a hissing noise. 3. Foreign objects in the air duct: If there are foreign objects in the AC system's air duct, they can rotate with the blower airflow and repeatedly hit the air filter, causing a hissing noise.

Where is the best place to put a fire extinguisher in a car?

When fighting a fire, every second counts. If the fire extinguisher is placed in the trunk, the rescue time will be greatly delayed. Therefore, the car fire extinguisher should be placed as close to the driver's seat as possible and in a position that is easy to access, such as under the driver's seat or the front passenger seat. The specific introduction is as follows: 1. The most critical thing is to extinguish the initial fire: When the car has a burning smell or emits thick smoke, the owner should immediately understand that this is a precursor to spontaneous combustion and take action as soon as possible. First, park the moving vehicle in a safe and less crowded place as soon as possible, quickly cut off the oil circuit and power supply, and prepare the fire extinguisher. 2. Spraying the root of the flame is effective: When extinguishing the fire, do not rush to open the hood completely, because the air flow will cause open flames to appear, so be careful to avoid it. Choose to stand in the upwind direction, turn the fire extinguisher upside down several times to loosen the dry powder inside. Hold the middle of the fire extinguisher with your left hand, pull off the safety ring on the pressure handle with your right hand, and aim the nozzle at the most intense burning point to press the pressure handle. Do not spray at the surface of the flame, but aim at the root of the flame to spray, quickly push forward, and confirm that the flame is completely extinguished before moving the fire extinguisher away. After the vehicle has cooled down, check it again. You can refer to the usage method of the dry powder fire extinguisher to correctly operate the fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire.

What Causes Squealing and Ineffective Braking During Emergency Stops?

Here are the specific reasons for squealing noises and difficulty braking during emergency stops: 1. When installing new brake pads without resurfacing the old brake rotors, causing improper fit. Improper installation or fitting new pads directly onto uneven old rotors will result in uneven wear of the new brake pads. 2. There might be defects in the braking system itself, causing the brake pads to only partially contact the rotors. This increases pressure per unit area, leading to squealing. It's recommended to inspect components like calipers and guide pins. 3. Foreign objects may be present, causing mismatched contact surfaces and resulting in noise.

Where is the Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor Installed?

Tire pressure monitoring sensor installation locations: Built-in sensors are installed inside the tire, which is relatively stable and provides more accurate temperature monitoring data; External types are sensors added outside the valve stem, which are more convenient to install. Direct tire pressure monitoring systems use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure, transmitting the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module via a wireless transmitter, then displaying the tire pressure data for each tire. The system automatically alerts when the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. The working principle of indirect tire pressure monitoring is: when the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels; by comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the purpose of monitoring tire pressure is achieved.
