Reasons why the engine cooling fan does not rotate: 1. Blown fuse: You can use some common household fuses, tie them around the blown fuse as a temporary replacement, and seek immediate repair; 2. Damaged thermal switch: Without starting the engine, turn on the ignition switch and the AC switch. If the electric fan rotates, it indicates a faulty thermal switch. If the electric fan does not rotate, it may be due to a damaged electric fan. The engine cooling fan is installed between the engine and the radiator. When the fan blades are driven by the engine to rotate, they generate high-speed airflow to dissipate the heat from the coolant in the radiator, achieving the purpose of cooling the engine.

Do I Need to Contact the 4S Store After Paying Off My Car Loan?

After paying off your car loan, it is not necessary to contact the 4S store. It depends on where the loan was applied for, and you need to find the institution that issued the loan. Once you locate the lending institution, obtain a loan clearance certificate. Take this certificate to the vehicle management office to complete the vehicle lien release registration. Only after the lien is released does the purchased vehicle fully belong to the borrower. The process for releasing the mortgage contract is as follows: 1. Inquire about the repayment status to confirm that all payments have been made; 2. Bring your ID card, vehicle registration certificate, bank repayment details, etc., to collect the vehicle registration certificate; 3. Go to the local municipal vehicle management office to complete the vehicle lien release procedures; 4. Change the primary beneficiary of the car insurance.

Is Intake System Cleaning Necessary?

Intake system cleaning is necessary. Here are the specific impacts of not cleaning the intake system: 1. Carbon buildup: Fuel is directly sprayed onto the intake valves by the fuel injectors, forming carbon deposits under high temperatures. The carbon deposits on the intake manifold and intake valves absorb fuel before it enters the combustion chamber, making the fuel leaner and causing the intake valves to close improperly, leading to stalling or shaking. 2. Disrupts air-fuel ratio: Carbon deposits in the intake system reduce airflow, disrupting the critical air-fuel ratio. 3. Idle issues: This can cause poor idling, reduced power, increased fuel consumption, and higher emissions.

Is driving at 130 to 140 km/h on the highway considered speeding?

Driving at 130 to 140 km/h on the highway is considered speeding, as the maximum speed limit on highways is 120 km/h. However, according to traffic regulations, exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% on highways or national roads only results in a warning, without any penalty points or fines. Only when the speed exceeds 10% above the limit will fines and penalty points be imposed. According to the Road Traffic Safety Law and its implementing regulations, the speed limit on roads without a central dividing line is 40 km/h; on roads with only one motor vehicle lane in the same direction, the speed limit is 70 km/h; and when entering or exiting non-motorized vehicle lanes, passing railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, or when making U-turns, turning, or descending steep slopes, the speed limit is 30 km/h.

Can I call the police if my car was scratched and the person ran away?

You can call the police if your car was scratched and the person ran away. Vehicles are considered private property, and malicious damage to private property can be resolved by reporting to the police. Intentionally damaging public or private property with minor amounts or circumstances constitutes a general violation of the law. According to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, the offender may be subject to detention or a warning, fined separately or in combination, and ordered to compensate for the losses. If private property is maliciously damaged, strong evidence should be gathered, such as checking nearby surveillance cameras, to conduct thorough investigation and evidence collection. After filing a lawsuit in court, the losses will be assessed by a court-appointed evaluation agency for compensation.

How to Clean Car Air Conditioning Radiator Fins?

Here are the specific methods for cleaning car air conditioning radiator fins: 1. High-pressure air gun: Equipped with a slender metal nozzle, it can remove some fluff and dust from the surface of the radiator. Some car owners directly use a water gun for spraying, but contact with willow catkins will only enhance their adhesion, making them more difficult to clean. 2. Regular disassembly and cleaning: Although high-pressure air can blow away some dust from the front or back surface of the radiator, it cannot remove willow catkins trapped between the two 37-layer sandwich sections. Prolonged accumulation of willow catkins affects heat dissipation, so under normal circumstances, for stubborn attachments like willow catkins, only disassembly and cleaning can be adopted. Drain the coolant and antifreeze, remove the radiator, carefully clean between the two sandwich layers, and then refill with antifreeze.
