The Big Green Book is not the vehicle license. Meaning of the Big Green Book: The Big Green Book is the motor vehicle registration certificate. The motor vehicle registration certificate is the property certificate of the motor vehicle, a legally recognized document, kept by the owner of the motor vehicle and not carried with the vehicle. If the motor vehicle registration certificate is lost, it needs to be reissued promptly. Meaning of the Vehicle License: The motor vehicle license is the legal document that permits the motor vehicle to drive on the roads within China. The vehicle license consists of three parts: the license holder, the main page, and the supplementary page. The front of the main page is the signed certificate core, and the back is the photo of the motor vehicle, sealed in a plastic cover. The supplementary page is the signed certificate core.

What Does the Wrench Light on the Dashboard Mean?

The small wrench is a maintenance indicator light, not a sign of vehicle malfunction. It serves as a maintenance reminder. The purpose of the maintenance indicator is to alert the driver to perform vehicle maintenance after a certain mileage has been reached. When the small wrench light illuminates, it is advisable to visit a 4S dealership for servicing. Note that different manufacturers set varying maintenance intervals, so the timing of when the wrench light appears should be referenced in the vehicle's owner manual. To reset the "small wrench" indicator, follow these steps: 1. Insert the key, but do not turn it. 2. Press and hold the trip meter reset button for 5-10 seconds, then turn the key to the "ON" position. 3. After another 5-10 seconds, start the engine. Continue holding the reset button throughout this entire process without releasing it.

Can You Still Drive with Brake System Failure?

It is not advisable to continue driving with a brake system failure. You should proceed to the nearest repair shop for inspection and maintenance of the vehicle's brake system. Only after the issue is resolved should you resume driving. Common causes of brake system failure include: 1. Excessive wear of brake pads. Some brake pads come with sensor wires that complete a circuit when the wear reaches a critical limit, triggering the dashboard warning light. 2. Insufficient brake fluid. Low brake fluid levels can lead to reduced braking power, and in severe cases, complete loss of braking. This issue can be resolved by promptly replenishing the brake fluid.
