If the daytime running lights are damaged, it is recommended not to replace the entire assembly immediately. First, check if the bulb is burnt out or if the fuse is blown. You can also take it to a repair shop for a professional to inspect the wiring. Reasons for daytime running light damage: The causes of daytime running light damage include broken wires or poor plug contact, blown high or low beam fuses, damaged light relays, or burnt-out bulbs. It is advisable to have the specific cause checked at a 4S shop. Solutions for daytime running light damage: Try reprogramming the headlight control module, inspect the light guide ring driver and its connectors, replace the headlight control module, check the bulb, inspect the headlight driver, reprogram the headlight control module, inspect the light guide ring driver and its connectors, or replace the headlight control module. Solution for daytime running lights not lighting up when powered: Daytime running lights do not have a corresponding control button, but there is a light control option in the vehicle settings. Enter this page to see the "Daytime Running Lights" option, which will show whether it is turned off or on. If the daytime running lights are turned off in the settings, they will not light up when the car starts. To turn them on, press the "OK" button on the steering wheel in the daytime running light settings interface, which will set the daytime running lights to the on state.

How to Read the Production Date of Automotive Glass

Method for checking the production date of automotive glass: There is a code at the bottom left or right corner of the car window glass. The last or second last row contains a number and several small black dots indicating the production date of the glass. The number represents the production year of the glass, and the small black dots represent the production month. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Meaning of the number: The number indicates the production year of the glass, representing the last digit of the year. For example, if the glass shows the number 8, and the vehicle's manufacturing date is in 2007 or 2008, then the glass with the number 8 was likely produced in 2008. 2. Meaning of the small black dots: The small black dots indicate the production month of the glass. If the dots are in front of the number, subtract the number of dots from 7; if the dots are behind the number, subtract the number of dots from 13. The result will be the production month of the glass.

Should I Report Broken Car Window Glass to Insurance?

Broken car window glass requires insurance coverage. Below is relevant information about auto insurance: 1. Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance: This is a mandatory coverage that all vehicle owners must purchase. Its only drawback is the relatively small compensation amount. 2. Third-party Liability Insurance: This serves as a supplement to compulsory insurance. Both cover third-party compensation, but payouts are determined based on the policyholder's degree of responsibility in an accident. Many auto insurance policies contain deductible waiver clauses where insurers waive certain deductibles. 3. Vehicle Damage Insurance: This covers compensation for damage to your own vehicle, but not all damages are covered. For instance, standalone damage to glass, external rearview mirrors, or tires (including rims) isn't covered. Additionally, insurers don't compensate for damages caused by earthquakes, drunk driving, or hit-and-run incidents.

What Causes Loud Noise When Closing Car Doors?

Here are the specific reasons for loud noise when closing car doors: 1. Worn door hinges: Wipe off surface dust with a cloth or tissue, then use a cotton swab dipped in a small amount of lubricating oil to repeatedly apply to the hinge and circled areas of the door limiter. Open and close the door repeatedly, and repeat the steps of applying oil and operating the door until the noise disappears. Avoid applying excessive lubricant to prevent contamination of other door parts. If the issue persists, it may be due to wear and require replacement of new hinges and limiters. 2. Aging door seals: Check if the door seals are aging. As seals are rubber products, regularly clean dust and rainwater from seal gaps to prevent aging. Since seal gaps easily accumulate sand and dust, frequently clean them with a brush and apply a layer of high-permeability protective agent to prevent seal aging. If the seals are severely damaged or significantly aged, replacement with new seals is necessary.
