The reasons for the tachometer not returning to zero are: 1. Fault in the tachometer itself; 2. Fault in the power supply or grounding circuit of the tachometer; 3. Fault in the data bus of the tachometer; 4. Blown fuse; 5. Foreign object stuck inside the tachometer, preventing movement; 6. Fault in the vehicle's mileage sensor. The tachometer is a tool used to measure the speed, linear velocity, or frequency of a motor. Its working principle is: it operates based on magnetic principles, receiving pulse signals generated when the primary current in the ignition coil is interrupted, and converting this signal into a displayable speed value. Methods to address the tachometer not returning to zero: 1. Check the working condition of the tachometer; 2. Open and clean any foreign objects inside the tachometer; 3. Replace the tachometer with a new one; 4. Check for any faults in the circuit.

Is It Dangerous When Engine Oil Life Is Below 30%?

When the engine oil life is below 30%, it does not pose any immediate danger. Here are ways to determine if the oil needs to be changed: 1. Observe the color of the oil. If it appears significantly darker than before or has visible impurities floating on the surface, it indicates the oil is no longer usable and should be replaced. 2. Rely on your driving experience. If you notice obvious engine vibrations or increased engine noise, it’s time to visit a 4S shop for an oil change as soon as possible. 3. The oil test paper method: First, pull out the oil dipstick near the engine, take a small amount of oil, and drip it onto the test paper. Let it sit overnight until the oil fully diffuses on the paper. Then, observe the deposition ring, oil ring, and diffusion ring on the paper. The oil needs replacement (indicating severe performance degradation) if any of the following conditions occur: ① Clear boundaries between the three rings—you can still use it for a while but should replace it soon. ② The oil ring disappears, leaving only the deposition and diffusion rings—visit the nearest auto repair shop or replace it yourself. ③ Only a dark-colored deposition ring remains—replace it immediately to avoid potential engine damage.

What type of fire extinguisher is used in cars?

Vehicle-mounted fire extinguishers mainly include two types: ①Non-storage pressure suspension-type ultra-fine dry powder automatic fire extinguishing device for vehicles ②Mini storage pressure suspension-type ultra-fine dry powder automatic fire extinguishing device for vehicles. Dry powder automatic fire extinguishing devices: Currently, portable fire extinguishers are mostly used for automotive fire protection. Several main types of vehicle-mounted fire extinguishers on the market: ①Aerosol fire extinguisher ②Dry powder fire extinguisher ③Ultra-fine dry powder fire extinguisher ④Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher ⑤Water-based fire extinguisher Usage method: Pull out the safety pin, hold the nozzle tightly with one hand, grip the handle firmly with the other hand, and sweep the nozzle at the base of the flame. Storage location: 1. Keep it within easy reach: It is recommended to place the fire extinguisher within easy reach, such as a portable aerosol fire extinguisher in the driver's compartment for emergency use. 2. Secure it properly in the trunk: Traditional dry powder fire extinguishers and carbon dioxide fire extinguishers are relatively large in size. These products may pose an explosion risk during high-temperature driving or vehicle jolts. 3. Horizontal or vertical placement: Dry powder fire extinguishers can be placed either horizontally or vertically. However, carbon dioxide and water-based fire extinguishers need to be kept upright. These three types of fire extinguishers are all storage pressure types, while aerosol fire extinguishers do not have the above concerns.

What is the concept of NIO's free battery swap?

NIO's free battery swap: When the battery is out of power, you can go to a battery swap station to exchange it for a fully charged battery. More information about NIO's free battery swap is as follows: 1. The "battery swap" concept seems to solve the "range anxiety" problem, but in actual experience, battery swap stations are not yet widespread and cannot solve the urgent needs of ES8 car owners. 2. Battery swapping requires removing the original battery and installing a new one. This increases battery wear and raises safety hazards for the vehicle. Slight poor contact can easily lead to short circuits and spontaneous combustion. 3. According to NIO's announced plan, more than 1,100 battery swap stations will be built nationwide. Constructing battery swap stations and providing swap services require huge investments, and the number of stations to be built and their future prospects remain unclear.

How to Use Car Air Conditioning Properly?

Correct steps for using car air conditioning are: First, open the car doors and windows, and use the fan for ventilation. After two to three minutes when the hot air has been expelled, get in and start the car. Do not rush to close the windows; first, turn on the external air circulation. When the temperature inside and outside the car becomes similar, then close the windows and switch to internal circulation. This helps avoid excessive load on the engine when starting and allows the air conditioning compressor to quickly reach its optimal working state. Car air conditioning is a ventilation system designed to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the car cabin to an optimal state. It provides a comfortable environment for passengers, reduces travel fatigue, creates good working conditions for the driver, and plays a crucial role in ensuring safe driving.
