Here are the ignition steps for the Envision: 1. Insert the car key into the ignition slot and turn it once to power on the vehicle, then wait for the onboard computer to complete the self-check. 2. After the onboard computer completes the self-check, press the brake pedal and turn the key again to start the engine. 3. Once the vehicle is started, shift the gear to the drive position, then release the handbrake and brake pedal, after which you can drive normally. Generally, cars have the following two starting methods: 1. Mechanical Key Start: Using a mechanical key is the most common method for starting a car. This method has a relatively high safety factor, and the starting device is usually not prone to damage, with relatively low maintenance costs in the long run. 2. One-Button Start: One-button start includes push-button start and rotary knob start, with similar principles. Basically, under the condition that the car is unlocked, press the one-button start button or rotate the knob start device to start the car. It should be noted that some models require the key to be inserted into the keyhole before pressing the one-button start button.

Can a Second Engine Start After Water Immersion Be Detected?

After a vehicle has been submerged in water, it is possible to detect whether a second engine start has occurred. Insurance companies will dismantle the engine for inspection. Following a second start, water stains will be present on the intake grille and intake tract, and there will be sediment accumulation below the intake housing. Additionally, the originally smooth cylinder walls will show scratches, the engine oil will contain impurities, and the crankshaft connecting rods will exhibit rust. The issue of a second engine start is not explicitly addressed in the commercial auto insurance laws. However, most insurance companies follow the practice of either denying claims or applying partial exemptions for damages resulting from a second start after water immersion. The rationale is that stalling during water immersion is highly likely due to water entering the engine, and a second start constitutes human-induced damage. Self-rescue measures for a water-submerged vehicle include: If the water level has not risen above the exhaust pipe, the engine can be started normally, and the vehicle should be driven away promptly. If the water has just reached the chassis but has not entered the cabin, the vehicle can be powered on and pushed away. If water has already entered the cabin, do not attempt to save the vehicle due to the risk of electric shock. In such cases, the driver should immediately call for emergency assistance.

How Long Does a Car Need to Sit Before It's Considered a Stock Vehicle?

For domestic brand vehicles, those that remain unsold for more than six months after leaving the factory are considered stock vehicles; for imported brand vehicles, the threshold is 12 months; and for joint-venture brand vehicles produced domestically, the six-month rule applies. Below is more information about stock vehicles: 1. Over time, the overall performance of the vehicle will decline. The battery may discharge, all lubricants and fluids will age, and prolonged contact of the same part of the tires with the ground can lead to tire deformation. If the vehicle is parked outdoors, the paint and rubber seals may also deteriorate. 2. The quality of a stock vehicle can be roughly assessed based on how long it has been in stock, followed by checking for obvious signs of aging in components like wipers, engine belts, and tires. 3. If the stock vehicle is particularly dirty, it should be thoroughly cleaned before inspecting the paint for scratches and dents. 4. If all the above aspects check out, it indicates the stock vehicle has been well-maintained, and a test drive can be conducted to confirm its condition.

Where is the Headlight Fuse Located?

Automobile headlight fuses are located inside the fuse box next to the engine under the front hood. At the rear of the vehicle's left front headlight, beside the car battery, there is a black square box containing the vehicle's fuses and relays. Location of vehicle fuse boxes: Generally, vehicles have two fuse boxes. One is located inside the engine compartment and is responsible for the normal operation of external vehicle electrical components, such as lights, horn, onboard computer, air conditioning compressor, windshield washer motor, etc., providing circuit protection. The other is located on the left side of the steering wheel or inside the glove compartment, responsible for the normal operation of internal vehicle electrical components, such as power windows, cigarette lighter, electric seats, and airbags. Types of fuses: There are also two different types of fuses. One is the blade-type fuse, which is thin, plug-in, and allows circuit current of 5 to 25A. The other is the slow-blow fuse, which is square, plug-in, and allows circuit current of 20 to 60A. The color represents the amperage of the fuse. Based on the color, it is easy to distinguish the different amperage sizes, which are also labeled on the fuse.

Is It Serious If a Car Is Flooded Up to the Gear Shift?

If a car is flooded up to the gear shift, it is quite serious. This situation can be referred to as a semi-flooded vehicle, indicating a relatively severe condition. Steps to take after a car is flooded: Do not attempt to start the car after it has been flooded (otherwise, you will be responsible for all damages); take photos of the scene, including the license plate number (which can serve as evidence for claims); then call the insurance company to report the incident (you must report within 24 hours); call for a rescue tow truck and inform the insurance company about the repair shop where the car will be taken for inspection by the adjuster; while waiting for rescue, if possible, disconnect the vehicle's power (remove the negative terminal), shift to neutral, and push the car to a safe location; finally, the insurance company will assess the damages as required. Precautions for repairing a flooded car: From a technical standpoint, flooded cars can be repaired to some extent, but even after repair, serious hidden risks remain. The longer the soaking time, the higher the likelihood of malfunctions. If the flooding is severe, the owner may consider scrapping the car as a viable option.

Should the Transmission Filter Be Replaced?

The transmission filter should generally be replaced every two years or after driving approximately 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, typically alongside the replacement of transmission fluid. Below is relevant information about the transmission filter: 1. The transmission filter, also known as the transmission screen, is installed inside the transmission and serves a filtering function. It filters out oil contaminants and impurities in the transmission, thereby protecting the transmission. 2. It is usually replaced along with the transmission fluid, every two years or after driving around 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, some vehicle models feature a metal filter screen with a fine wire mesh filtering layer. This type can be cleaned and reused after removal during transmission fluid changes and does not require replacement. 3. Over prolonged use of the transmission, friction between metal components generates fine debris, and the transmission fluid also accumulates contaminants. These impurities are easily intercepted and filtered by the transmission filter, preventing transmission malfunctions. 4. Over time, the accumulation of impurities can clog the transmission filter, reducing its filtering efficiency. Unfiltered impurities may then adhere to other components in the transmission, accelerating wear and significantly shortening the transmission's lifespan. Therefore, timely replacement of the filter is essential.

How Many Years Does a Toyota NiMH Battery Last?

Toyota hybrids currently use nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, which employ a strategy of shallow discharge and frequent refreshing. Theoretically, the battery lifespan can exceed eight years or even longer. However, Toyota offers an 8-year/200,000-kilometer warranty for its hybrid battery, indicating the company's strong confidence in NiMH batteries. Below are some car battery maintenance tips: 1. Avoid prolonged vehicle inactivity: The battery installed in the car will self-discharge during extended periods of inactivity. It's best to drive the vehicle at least once a week for a minimum of 20 minutes to allow the battery to recharge while driving. 2. Close windows before turning off the engine: The power windows and sunroof operate using battery power. Therefore, it's advisable to close all windows before shutting off the engine, rather than after, or using the long-press lock button method after leaving the vehicle. 3. Maintain battery cleanliness: Regular inspections are an effective way to extend car battery life. Use a professional battery terminal brush or an old toothbrush to clean dust and corrosion from the positive and negative terminals. Apply petroleum jelly or grease to the contact surfaces to create a protective film.
