What are the symptoms of a car short circuit?
2 Answers
Car short circuits can cause most circuits to catch fire, leading to vehicle explosions. Below is relevant information about cars: 1. Definition of a car: According to the latest Chinese national standard "Terms and Definitions of Motor Vehicles and Trailers" (GB/T3730.1-2001), a car is defined as follows: a non-track vehicle powered by an engine, with four or more wheels, mainly used for transporting people and/or goods; towing vehicles for transporting people and/or goods; or for special purposes. 2. Introduction to domestic car brands: Domestic car brands include Hongqi, Chang'an, Great Wall, Chery, Geely, Roewe, BYD, etc.
My car's last short circuit was really scary. I was driving when suddenly the dashboard went black, the headlights went out, followed by a series of crackling sounds and a burning smell. I quickly pulled over, popped the hood, and saw the wires near the battery glowing red and hot, which had blown the fuse and even made the cigarette lighter stop working. When repairing it later, the mechanic said the short circuit was caused by aging wiring and rainwater seeping in, directly connecting the positive and negative terminals, causing a surge in current. If not dealt with promptly, it could have led to a fire. That experience taught me that when you smell something odd or notice electrical devices flickering in the car, you should immediately turn off the engine and check, not wait until something bad happens to regret it.
