New Sylphy wiper not working reasons are as follows: Blown fuse: When the wiper fuse of the vehicle is blown, the wiper will definitely not work properly. In this case, a new fuse needs to be replaced. Wiper switch damage: If the wiper switch is faulty or has poor contact, it will generally affect the normal use of the vehicle's wiper. In this case, the wiper switch needs to be inspected, and if damaged, it should be replaced immediately with a new wiper switch. Vehicle battery dead: If the vehicle battery is dead, not only will the wiper not work properly, but the vehicle's lighting system, horn, and multimedia entertainment system will generally not function normally. In this case, the vehicle battery needs to be charged immediately. If the battery needs to be replaced, it must be replaced with an original battery to avoid quality issues.

The non-functioning wipers on the new Sylphy may involve multiple aspects. The wiper motor is the core component responsible for driving the wiper blades; if the motor ages or fails, the wipers won't move. Switch and relay issues are also common—when control signal transmission fails, operation is interrupted. A blown fuse is a frequent cause, where high current surges lead to fuse failure, cutting off the power circuit. Short circuits or open circuits in the wiring may occur, such as loose connectors or damaged wires, preventing current transmission. Mechanical components like rusted or stuck linkages can hinder wiper arm movement. For the new Sylphy model, special attention should be paid to relay or electronic control module failures, as some batches have design flaws. I recommend starting with simple steps: first, check the fuse box and replace the relevant fuse; if that doesn't work, visually inspect whether the wiper arms move freely. Any abnormalities should be promptly repaired to avoid impaired visibility during rain, which could lead to accidents. This inspection process requires careful attention—take some time to try it yourself, and you might save unnecessary expenses.

Hey, I just helped a neighbor check a similar issue. The wipers not moving on a new Sylphy usually stems from several causes. First, the wiper motor might be burnt out - this component under the hood is prone to overheating damage. Second, a blown fuse is a common minor issue; you can locate the fuse position in your vehicle manual and test by replacing it with a spare. Third, poor contact in the switch button or relay failure controlling the circuit can paralyze the system. Fourth, aged wiring or water seepage causing short circuits/open circuits requires professional tools for testing. Fifth, rusted mechanical arm bearings can jam wiper movement. I recommend starting with the easiest fixes: unplug the wiper motor connector to check for burn marks, and inspect if fuses have turned black. If you can't handle it yourself, visit a 4S shop immediately - safety first, don't risk driving. Last time I fixed mine by just replacing a relay - quick and hassle-free. Remember, regular wiper system maintenance prevents these troubles.

What is the method for cleaning the engine radiator?

Cleaning the engine radiator involves the following steps: 1. Remove the bumper; 2. Adjust the water gun nozzle to a spray pattern and set the pressure to an appropriate level, then spray towards the dirty radiator; 3. Add the car radiator cleaner into the radiator filler port, let it soak for thirty minutes, then drain the cleaner and rinse the radiator and pipes thoroughly with water. The function of the engine radiator is: when the engine's water temperature is high, the water pump circulates repeatedly to lower the engine's temperature, thereby protecting the engine. In winter, when the water temperature is low, the water circulation stops to prevent the engine temperature from dropping.
