Mechanical key can be turned but cannot open the car door may be due to the mechanical key not matching, the car door being frozen, or the lock cylinder malfunctioning. Mechanical key not matching: Only a mechanical key that matches the lock cylinder can open the car door. When a new key cannot match the lock cylinder, it may cause the car door to fail to open. Car door being frozen: In winter, when the temperature is too low, the car door is extremely prone to freezing. In this case, even if the lock cylinder is unlocked, the car door still cannot be opened. Lock cylinder malfunctioning: If the internal parts of the lock cylinder are broken, even if the mechanical key can be turned, the car door still cannot be opened.

Are the results of Subject One released immediately after the exam?

For the Subject One exam, you will receive an immediate notification if you pass. However, the specific score will be available for viewing on the 12123 platform approximately 24 hours later. You can also gauge your performance during the exam itself, as the system indicates whether each answer is correct right after submission. By considering the allocated points for each question and your accuracy rate, you can estimate your score. Here is some additional information: 1. Subject One: Also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, Subject One is part of the assessment for obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the exam covers foundational driving theory, road safety laws and regulations, local statutes, and related knowledge. The test is computer-based, consisting of 100 questions, with a passing score of 90 or above. 2. Important Notes: Cancellation of the exam must be done six days in advance.

What is the difference between a camshaft and a crankshaft?

Here are the differences between a camshaft and a crankshaft: 1. Different in nature: (1) Crankshaft: It is the most important component in an engine. (2) Camshaft: It is a component in a piston engine. 2. Different in principle: (1) Crankshaft: The crankshaft is subjected to the combined effects of centrifugal force from rotating masses, periodically varying gas inertial forces, and reciprocating inertial forces, causing the crankshaft to bear bending and torsional loads. (2) Camshaft: The camshaft is usually forged from high-quality carbon steel or alloy steel, or cast from alloy cast iron or ductile iron. The journal and cam working surfaces are polished after heat treatment. 3. Different in function: (1) Crankshaft: It receives the force transmitted from the connecting rod and converts it into torque, which is output through the crankshaft to drive other engine accessories. (2) Camshaft: It controls the opening and closing actions of the valves. Although in a four-stroke engine, the speed of the camshaft is half that of the crankshaft (in a two-stroke engine, the speed of the camshaft is the same as that of the crankshaft), its speed is usually still very high, and it needs to withstand significant torque.
