Width indicator lights need to be turned on at night, and the car's headlights should also be activated. Width indicator lights are used to indicate the width of the vehicle and remain constantly illuminated, serving as a common lighting feature. Many people confuse width indicator lights with hazard warning lights, which continuously flash in yellow and differ significantly from width indicator lights. Here is additional information: 1. Vehicle lights: The car's lighting system consists of multiple light groups, including width indicator lights, hazard warning lights, headlights, turn signals, fog lights, parking lights, etc. Each light group serves a different purpose and should not be used interchangeably. 2. Night driving precautions: In most nighttime scenarios, insufficient lighting and reduced visibility are common. When passing through intersections, residential areas, and similar zones, it is necessary to slow down and yield to pedestrians. Maintaining a safe following distance of at least 50 meters is crucial for enhancing driving safety during nighttime.

Why does the door lock of Baojun 730 keep jumping automatically?

Here are the reasons for the erratic jumping of the central lock in Baojun 730: 1. Damaged lock mechanism: A damaged lock mechanism causes the motor to keep working. 2. Sensor malfunction: A faulty sensor that detects whether the door is properly closed leads to confusion in the control computer, causing the motor to keep working. Here are the solutions for the erratic jumping of the central lock in Baojun 730: 1. Loose parts: Owners with some mechanical skills can remove the door panel and check if any components of the locking mechanism are loose or damaged. If any parts are found loose, they can be reinstalled. 2. Inspection and repair: If no specific fault is observed, it can be handed over to professionals for handling.

Why Are Used Lynk & Co 03 Cars So Cheap?

Here are the reasons why used Lynk & Co 03 cars are cheap: 1. Domestic cars do not hold their value well: As a domestic joint-venture brand, Lynk & Co 03 is relatively young in terms of both brand and model. 2. Unknown vehicle condition: In the used car industry, factors such as mileage, engine, transmission, and maintenance history are often unclear and require professional inspection to determine the specific condition of the car. Generally, used cars carry certain risks, so extra caution is advised when encountering particularly cheap used cars. Below is an introduction to the Lynk & Co 03: 1. Exterior: The red paint has a glossy finish, giving it a premium look rather than a cheap feel. The interior has a tech-savvy design. 2. Space: The space is practical, with dimensions typical of mainstream family sedans. However, the wheelbase of 2730 mm is somewhat average. 3. Performance: The initial acceleration is very quick, but fuel consumption may increase if the throttle is pressed too hard, so it is recommended to coast after accelerating. 4. Handling: The handling is good, especially during sharp turns, with excellent grip and braking performance.

Why is the GL8 electric door not working automatically?

The reasons why the GL8 electric door is not working automatically are as follows: 1. First, check whether the fuse, control switch, and wiring harness connectors have abnormal looseness, corrosion, or poor contact; 2. Controller issues. In this case, it is recommended to go to a 4S store for inspection. The GL8 electric door can be closed in four ways: pressing the close button from the driver's seat, pressing the close button on the car key, pulling the door handle from the outside, or pressing the side button on the driver's seat. Electric car doors can be categorized by opening and closing methods into sliding doors, swing doors, and revolving doors: 1. Sliding doors: These can be further divided into single-opening, double-opening, overlapping single-opening, overlapping double-opening, and curved doors. Curved doors move smoothly along curved tracks and can be classified as semi-curved single-direction, semi-curved double-direction, or full-curved double-direction. To maximize the entrance width, some sliding (telescoping) automatic doors can be designed to overlap with fixed panels and then manually swing open, which is also classified as a sliding automatic door; 2. Revolving doors: These can be further divided into central-axis type, circular-track suspended type, and central-display-area type; 3. Swing doors: These can be further divided into single-leaf single-direction, double-leaf single-direction, single-leaf double-direction, and double-leaf double-direction.

Should straight-going vehicles yield to left-turning vehicles or vice versa?

Left-turning vehicles should yield to straight-going vehicles, and right-turning motor vehicles should yield to straight-going vehicles. Relevant explanations are as follows: 1. With traffic signs or markings: yield to the party with the right of way. 2. Without traffic signs or markings: stop and observe before entering the intersection, yielding to vehicles coming from the right. 3. Turning motor vehicles: yield to straight-going vehicles. 4. Right-turning motor vehicles from the opposite direction: yield to left-turning vehicles. Motor vehicles should use turn signals as follows: when turning left, changing lanes to the left, preparing to overtake, leaving a parking spot, or making a U-turn, the left turn signal should be activated in advance; when turning right, changing lanes to the right, returning to the original lane after overtaking, or parking by the roadside, the right turn signal should be activated in advance.

What is the Difference Between S Mode and M Mode?

The differences between S mode and M mode lie in their gear modes and usage environments, as detailed below: Different gear modes: S mode stands for the car's sport mode, which enhances the vehicle's power performance but also increases fuel consumption; M mode represents the manual mode of the car, available only in vehicles with a manual-automatic transmission. When shifted into M mode, the driver can use the gear lever or paddle shifters behind the steering wheel to control upshifts or downshifts. Different usage environments: S mode provides stronger power, making it ideal for overtaking or quick acceleration. M mode, as a manual mode, can be used when driving on steep inclines or declines. S is short for SPORT, meaning sport. When shifted into S mode, the operating logic of the car's engine and transmission changes. In this mode, the transmission can shift freely, but the shift timing is delayed, keeping the engine at high RPMs for a longer duration to deliver instant high torque, thereby increasing the vehicle's power. Other gears may not perform as well. Shifting into S mode increases the engine's RPM, makes the throttle response more sensitive, and causes the transmission to delay shifting. S mode is suitable for overtaking or aggressive driving. M mode: The + and - signs in manual mode have similar functions—+ for upshifting and - for downshifting. The vehicle can be directly switched to manual mode while moving; there's no need to stop to switch. M mode can also be used for quick overtaking and in very specific road conditions, such as when climbing or descending steep slopes. Introduction to other gears in automatic transmission cars: N gear: Neutral means 'neutral,' also known as the neutral gear. It can be engaged when waiting at a traffic light while pressing the brake pedal. For longer waits, it's advisable to engage the handbrake, allowing the foot to rest off the brake pedal. A common misconception is that shifting into N gear while coasting downhill or at high speeds saves fuel. This is a serious mistake—it not only fails to save fuel but can also damage the transmission. D gear: Drive means 'drive,' representing the forward gear in a car. When this gear is engaged, pressing the accelerator allows the vehicle to move. In this gear, the transmission automatically shifts based on speed and throttle conditions. At traffic lights, D gear can be engaged while pressing the brake. For short waits, this is fine, but prolonged use can raise transmission fluid temperature and degrade the fluid. L gear: Low means 'low speed,' representing the low-speed forward gear in a car. When engaged, the transmission operates only in low gear (equivalent to first gear in a manual transmission) and does not shift automatically based on speed changes. This gear is typically used when climbing or descending slopes. In low gear, the drive wheels output higher torque, providing sufficient power to climb steep inclines. Prolonged braking can overheat the brake pads, reducing braking effectiveness, which is dangerous on long or steep descents. Engaging L gear uses the engine's low RPM to restrain the vehicle's movement, eliminating the need for constant braking.
