If you often park your car on the street, it is necessary to install a car alarm. If the car is parked in a residential area, not installing a car alarm may not be a big problem. Below is the installation method for a car anti-theft device: 1. First, check whether the original car's lock, turn signals, side door lights, and engine are working properly. 2. Then connect all the plug-in wires to the main unit's connectors and organize the wiring harness (Note: leave some flexibility for the wire connections to the main unit's plugs). 3. Find the wiring locations in the vehicle, which are generally under the steering wheel and inside the protective panel below the A-pillar. Some models may require locating wires under the driver's side foot pedal. 4. Next, use a multimeter and a test light to identify the car's wiring (positive power, ACC, lock ON wire, +12V wire, turn signal wire, foot brake switch wire, door contact switch wire, ground wire, central locking signal wire). 5. Finally, follow the installation diagram provided by the manufacturer to correctly strip, connect, and wrap the corresponding wires with insulating tape.

How long does it take to get the license plate after successfully selecting a new car number?

After the selected license plate number is confirmed by the vehicle management office, it generally takes about 5 working days to get the license plate. Below are the methods for displaying temporary license plates on a car: 1. One plate: A single temporary license plate should be affixed to the lower left or right corner of the front windshield, where it does not obstruct the driver's view. 2. Two plates: If there are two temporary license plates, one should be affixed to the front windshield, and the other should be placed on the lower left corner of the rear windshield inside the car. If there is no space on the rear windshield, the second temporary license plate should still be carried in the vehicle. Below is some extended information on the topic: 1. Traffic regulations: Car owners should note that temporary license plates are subject to the same traffic laws as regular license plates. Therefore, do not assume that temporary plates allow reckless behavior or that they are too small to be captured by cameras—high-definition cameras can clearly record temporary license plates. 2. Types of temporary plates: There are two types of temporary plates—one with a sky-blue background, black characters, and black borders, which is only valid for driving within the city (local temporary plates), and another with a brown-yellow background, black characters, and black borders, which allows for intercity travel (non-local temporary plates).

How many points can be deducted from a driver's license for online processing?

Points deducted from a driver's license can be processed online, but the traffic violations eligible for online processing must involve 11 points or fewer, not exceeding 12 points. The processing software is the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123," which allows for the deduction of driver's license points online. The calculation method for the driver's license points cycle is as follows: 1. Starting from the day the driver's license is first issued, each 12-month period constitutes a cycle. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Article 65, the cumulative points cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the points cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points, calculated from the date of the first issuance of the motor vehicle driver's license; 2. Based on the severity of the road traffic safety violation, the points deducted for a single violation can be one of five levels: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point; 3. Article 66 states that for motor vehicle drivers' road traffic safety violations, penalties and point deductions are executed simultaneously. If a motor vehicle driver commits two or more violations at once, the points should be calculated separately and accumulated.

What are the reasons for the car air conditioning fan not spinning?

Reasons for the car air conditioning fan not spinning: 1. Poor contact of the air conditioning switch: If the air conditioning switch has poor contact, it cannot control the normal startup of the car air conditioning, and the connection between them fails, resulting in the car air conditioning fan not spinning; 2. Fan bearing detachment; 3. Damage to the fan motor coil: If the fan motor coil is damaged, the fan cannot function normally, leading to its failure to spin. In this case, the fan motor coil needs to be inspected and repaired. The car air conditioning system is a device that cools, heats, ventilates, and purifies the air inside the compartment, providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and improving driving safety.
