Car should be stopped and turned off, confirm the battery model, as the capacity and size of the battery vary, it is best to choose the same battery as the original one. Here are some relevant introductions about the battery: 1. Since the battery is heavy, friends with low strength are advised to seek help from others, especially when taking out and placing the battery from the engine compartment, to avoid damaging the battery or hurting themselves. Remove the battery clamp and take out the battery. If the vehicle is connected to an external power source, be careful not to let the positive terminal wire come into contact with the car body. It can be isolated with cotton cloth. 2. Generally, the service life of a car battery is 2-3 years, and the original battery of a new car can last more than 3 years. If the battery has been used for almost two years, pay attention to its service life which may have expired. At this time, you should check more often, conduct inspections in advance, and solve or replace any problems as early as possible to avoid losses caused by the battery suddenly "dying" during use.

Can a Car Key Still Be Used After Getting Wet?

If a car key gets wet, do not use it immediately or press any buttons on it, as this can cause water to seep into the inner components more quickly. The steps to resolve a wet car key are: 1. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to wipe the surface clean, then disassemble the key and remove the battery; 2. Use highly absorbent paper towels to dry any internal moisture; 3. Use a hairdryer on the cool setting to dry the key—never use hot air, as the circuit board inside the key should not be exposed to excessive heat; 4. Alternatively, wrap the key in a breathable bag and place it in a dry rice container, as rice is highly absorbent and can help remove moisture. A car key is a tool used to operate a vehicle, and modern car keys typically use a chip-based magnetic system.

How to Identify the Manufacturing Date from Car Glass?

The method to identify the manufacturing date from car glass is as follows: There will be a trademark in the corner of the car glass, consisting of several dots and a number. The number represents the production year of the car glass. If the dots are on the left, it indicates the first half of the year, while dots on the right represent the second half of the year. The production of car glass involves heating the glass in a furnace to near its softening temperature, then rapidly transferring it to air grids with different cooling intensities for uneven cooling. This creates different stress levels between the main viewing area and the peripheral areas of the glass. Generally, such glass is zone-tempered glass. The peripheral areas are located in the strong air flow positions of the grids, requiring full tempering, resulting in good fragmentation and high tempering strength. The main viewing area is in the weak cooling position of the grid, leading to larger fragments and lower tempering strength.

Where is the OBD interface located on the Wuling Hongguang?

The OBD interface of the Wuling Hongguang is located under the steering wheel on the driver's side, and you can see it by bending down. The OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) system continuously monitors the engine's operating conditions to check if the vehicle's emissions exceed standards. If they do, it will immediately issue a warning. When a system fault occurs, the malfunction indicator lamp or check engine light will illuminate, and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) will store the fault information in memory. Through a specific procedure, the fault codes can be read from the PCM. Based on the fault codes, maintenance personnel can quickly and accurately determine the nature and location of the fault. The OBD interface is generally a 16-pin female trapezoidal connector. The Wuling Hongguang has a body length, width, and height of 4305mm, 1680mm, and 1750mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2720mm.
