Stalling, slight exhaust noise, and jerking during take-off. Here are the detailed descriptions: Stalling: When idling and slightly accelerating, the RPM drops below 1000 and the engine stalls. Occasionally, it also stalls after braking at high speeds. This issue occurred after adjusting the carburetor. Slight exhaust noise: The exhaust makes a crackling sound, which is not loud and can only be heard in quiet environments. It resembles the sound of popping candy or the sizzling of oil in a pan after cooking, but much quieter. Jerking during take-off: The scooter jerks forward during low-speed take-off, but this phenomenon disappears after reaching 90Km/h a few times.

I've been riding the Kymco Like 110 for over three years. Overall it's quite sturdy, but there are indeed several common issues. The engine mounting bracket bolts tend to loosen and cause strange noises - regular checks are recommended. The carburetor is somewhat delicate, especially during cold starts in northern winters when it occasionally stalls - I had to clean it twice to solve this. The front shock absorbers are prone to oil leakage after prolonged use - I replaced the oil seals at just 8,000 km. The most annoying problem is the rear wheel bearings, which started humming around 20,000 km - I've replaced two sets. The storage compartment latch under the seat is too fragile - I've broken it twice when opening in the rain. It's advisable to keep some commonly worn parts in the bike.

How to Solve the Airbag Light Being On?

The solutions for the airbag light being on: 1. If it's due to loose or disconnected wiring, check and securely reconnect the airbag wires under the seats one by one; 2. If it's due to a faulty airbag sensor, replace the driver-side airbag sensor; 3. If there's a fault code present, use specialized equipment to clear the fault code; 4. If it's due to a faulty airbag control unit, replace the airbag control unit. The airbag system is a passive safety protection system that, when used in conjunction with seat belts, provides effective collision protection for occupants. It mainly consists of airbag sensors, collision airbags, and electronic control devices. In domestically produced mid-to-low-end cars, the standard number of airbags is 1 to 2, typically located in the driver and front passenger positions.

Will I receive a text message if I fail to schedule the Subject 2 test?

Normally, you will receive a text message indicating that the Subject 2 test scheduling has failed. However, in practice, it is common not to receive the message. It is recommended to check online or ask your coach for accurate information to better arrange your schedule. Below are some important notes for the Subject 2 test: Fasten your seatbelt: After getting into the car, fasten your seatbelt immediately. Make sure not to buckle it incorrectly or on the passenger side, as this will result in an automatic failure. Do not unfasten the seatbelt during the entire test. Adjust the seat and mirrors: After entering the car, adjust the seat, mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, turn on the left turn signal, shift to first gear, and release the handbrake. These six steps are essential. Ensure all preparations are complete before starting. No stopping during the test: There is no time limit for reversing into the parking space, but you must not stop during the process. If the wheels remain stationary for 3 seconds, the system will judge it as stopping midway, so controlling the speed is crucial. The time limit for starting on a slope is 30 seconds: The system will give a voice prompt every 10 seconds, and exceeding 30 seconds will result in an automatic failure.

What does the SVS light indicate as a fault?

SVS light is the engine fault indicator light, resembling the shape of an engine. This light will illuminate when the vehicle's ignition key is turned on and will turn off after the vehicle starts. When the engine ECU detects a fault, the SVS light will illuminate. If this light comes on while the vehicle is in motion, it indicates that there is a fault with the vehicle's engine. The SVS fault indicator light is a warning light that appears when the ECU or TCU of an electronically fuel-injected vehicle detects a problem with the engine or automatic transmission. Therefore, all electronically fuel-injected vehicles are equipped with an SVS fault indicator light. For manual transmission vehicles, it indicates an engine fault, while for automatic transmission vehicles, it indicates both engine and automatic transmission faults. It is recommended to visit a repair shop for inspection as soon as possible.

How often should the cabin air filter be replaced?

The cabin air filter typically needs to be replaced every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometers driven. Consequences of a dirty air filter: 1. Insufficient air intake; 2. Incomplete fuel combustion, leading to unstable engine operation; 3. A muffled engine sound when continuously pressing the accelerator pedal; 4. Sluggish acceleration response with thick, black exhaust emissions. The car's air filter is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to filter the air entering the engine. During operation, the engine draws in a large amount of air containing numerous dust particles. Without filtration by the air filter, this can accelerate wear on the piston group and cylinder. If larger particles enter between the piston and cylinder, it can cause cylinder scoring.

What does the afsoff warning light indicate?

afsoff is the malfunction indicator for the automatic headlight beam leveling system. A vehicle's lighting system includes exterior lights such as headlights, fog lights, license plate lights, reverse lights, turn signals, as well as various interior lights like instrument panel lights, reading lights, and dome lights. When these lights malfunction, it can affect normal vehicle operation and driving safety, causing inconvenience and even posing hazards during nighttime driving. These lights are controlled by different positions of a combination switch. Most failures are caused by burnt-out bulbs or wiring issues, and the reverse power supply inspection method can quickly locate the fault. First, check the bulb - if it's burnt out, simply replace it. If the bulb is intact, inspect its grounding circuit. If the grounding connection is secure, examine the power supply wiring to the bulb. Most faults occur in the power wires or connectors behind the bulb, eliminating the need to check the light switch or relay.
