The reasons for the wiper not working are as follows: 1. Open the engine cover to observe if the transmission linkage is dislocated. 2. The fuse may be blown, causing the wiper to malfunction. 3. There may be a fault at the connection point of the wiper linkage, preventing the wiper from working properly. 4. The wiper switch may be faulty. Solutions for a non-moving wiper: 1. Open the fuse box for inspection. If the fuse is blown, replace it. Before replacement, ensure all electrical systems of the vehicle are turned off. 2. If the motor is damaged, it is best to take it to an auto repair shop for inspection and repair. 3. Pay attention to the maintenance of the car wiper blades. If they are severely damaged, they cannot function properly and need to be replaced with a new set. 4. Check the wiper linkage. You can determine if it is a linkage fault by observing the wiper's operation. 5. If the wiper switch is faulty, use a multimeter to measure its condition or directly replace it with a new one for testing. 6. If there is a wiring fault in the wiper system, use an automotive multimeter to measure voltage, resistance, and current, and conduct inspections in combination with actual conditions.

What is the scrap life of the Ford Raptor?

Ford Raptor's scrap life is 15 years. The Ford Raptor is a classic pickup model under Ford Motor Company. In China, it is classified as a truck, so the Ford Raptor follows the truck's scrap policy, which enforces a mandatory scrap after 15 years of driving. Mandatory scrap is different from guided scrap. Guided scrap suggests scrapping, but if the vehicle still meets the requirements for continued use, it may not be scrapped; whereas mandatory scrap means it must, without exception, be scrapped. There are four criteria for mandatory scrap: Reaching the prescribed service life; After repair and adjustment, still failing to meet the national standards for motor vehicle safety technology concerning in-use vehicles; After repair and adjustment or the adoption of control technology, still failing to meet the national standards concerning in-use vehicles regarding atmospheric pollutant emissions or noise; Failing to obtain the motor vehicle inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection validity period.

How to Manually Reset the Tire Pressure on BYD Qin?

With the central control screen turned on, click the vehicle information button at the bottom left. Select the wheel option. Choose the SET option and then confirm. Wait for the "Tire Pressure Monitoring Initialization" to complete, and the tire pressure warning light will be reset. The tire pressure monitoring light on the BYD Qin illuminates: The tire pressure monitoring indicator is a yellow symbol—an irregular circle without a seal on top, with four small spikes at the bottom and an exclamation mark inside. The illumination of this light indicates abnormal tire pressure. Abnormal tire pressure is generally caused by one of the following three reasons: Abnormal tire pressure: The system usually triggers an alarm if the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, inspect the tires and adjust the pressure accordingly. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset promptly, the system retains the previous data, causing the tire pressure warning light to illuminate. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, installed inside the tire and connected to the inflation valve, monitors the tire pressure. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it can also trigger the tire pressure warning light. In such cases, the only solution is to replace the sensor with a new one.

How often should Castrol Edge 5W30 be changed?

Castrol Edge 5W30 is a fully synthetic engine oil that can be changed every 10,000 kilometers or once a year. Its characteristic is slow degradation, so the replacement cycle is relatively longer. Steps for changing engine oil: When the car engine temperature is normal, lift the vehicle with a jack. Place a container under the oil pan at the bottom of the car chassis, then loosen the oil drain plug to allow the oil to flow out naturally. Once the oil has completely drained, reinstall the drain plug. Move the oil container under the oil filter, remove the filter with a wrench, and let the remaining oil flow out naturally. After the oil has drained completely, install a new filter. After installing the new filter, lower the car to a flat surface and add new engine oil. It is best to use the manufacturer-recommended oil that meets the standard. After adding the new oil, start the engine to check the oil status. If any issues arise, perform maintenance promptly. Performance characteristics of Castrol Edge: Extends the life of modern high-performance engines, with strong high-temperature control capabilities and excellent performance. Castrol Edge is specially formulated to enhance the oil's oxidation stability and reduce degradation under high temperatures, making it more suitable for the demanding operating conditions of today's high-performance engines.

Why can't the vehicle detect the key and fails to start?

Vehicle cannot detect the key and fails to start because the steering wheel is in a locked and immovable state. Below are the detailed reasons why the vehicle cannot detect the key: 1. Detailed reasons: The vehicle cannot detect the key and fails to start because the steering wheel is in a locked and immovable state, and the car cannot detect the presence of the key. In addition, if the vehicle is out of fuel, it also cannot detect the presence of the key. 2. Precautions: Car keys should not be placed together with electronic devices. In places with magnetic interference, the car key may not function properly. Additionally, do not throw the car key around, as the internal circuitry of the key has weak impact resistance and is prone to damage under severe collisions.

What does Comfort Mode mean?

COMFORT stands for Comfort Mode. Comfort Mode is an operational mode that prioritizes comfort, stability, and fuel efficiency. When activated, the car's suspension becomes softer, providing excellent smoothness for passing over bumps, with gentle starts and stops. Passengers, in particular, won't feel nauseous due to frequent acceleration and braking. The steering wheel is lighter in Comfort Mode, and the engine's RPM is maintained at a lower level. Most cars generally come with Eco Mode, Comfort Mode, and Sport Mode. More details are as follows: 1. Eco Mode: In Eco Mode, the throttle response is less sensitive, and the transmission shifts up at relatively low RPMs to reduce fuel consumption. 2. Comfort Mode: Comfort Mode refers to daily driving that seeks comfort, stability, and fuel efficiency. In this mode, the car's suspension is softer, providing good shock absorption. Sport Mode is the opposite. When Comfort Mode is enabled, the transmission tends to use higher gears because the vehicle is in a low-torque, low-fuel-consumption state. All adjustments in Comfort Mode are made with comfort as the priority, ensuring smooth power delivery and effortless steering. 3. Sport Mode: In Sport Mode, the car's performance is fully highlighted. The suspension becomes stiffer with stronger support, the throttle responds more quickly, engine intake increases, and acceleration is very fast. Of course, fuel consumption also increases significantly. Generally, only performance cars have this mode.
