What Causes the Locking Sound After the Car is Already Locked?

This situation is most likely caused by internal damage to the central locking system. If the abnormal sound only occurs in one of the doors, it indicates a problem with that door's lock cylinder. However, if all the door locks in the vehicle exhibit this issue, it suggests a malfunction in the door lock's electronic control switch. Below are relevant explanations: 1. Central Locking System: The full name is Central Control Door Lock, which is an automotive component that allows remote locking and unlocking without inserting the key into the lock cylinder. It consists of a door lock switch, actuator, and controller. 2. Repair: If such a situation occurs, the central locking system should be repaired immediately to avoid affecting vehicle usage. When repairing the central locking system, it is essential to visit a professional service center or an authorized 4S shop, and only genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts should be used during the repair.

I've encountered similar issues before. When the car door is locked but there's still a clicking sound, it's mostly because the locking mechanism hasn't fully reset, causing the motor to keep running. In older cars, it's common for parts to wear out or rust, causing the latch to get stuck. In newer cars, it might be due to sensor delays, making the system think the door isn't properly locked and retrying. You should check if there's any dust or debris blocking the door frame or apply some lubricant to the hinges. If left unchecked, this can accelerate part wear and tear. It's recommended to visit a repair shop to adjust the mechanism or replace the motor parts. Don't ignore it, as it can lead to excessive battery discharge, making it difficult to start the car next time.

New Wiper Leaves Water Marks on Return Stroke?

Water marks are not necessarily caused by the wiper; it could be due to an oil film on the windshield. Here is some relevant information about oil film on the windshield: 1. How to determine if there is an oil film: To check for an oil film, simply pour a basin of water onto the windshield. If many small water droplets adhere to the surface, it indicates the presence of an oil film. 2. How to remove the oil film: This oil film has strong adhesion to water, making it difficult to remove even with wiper strokes. It is necessary to use the cleaning effect of a glass cleaner to thoroughly remove the oil film. If the new wiper is of poor quality with rough rubber, it will not only leave water marks (incomplete wiping) but also produce a squeaking noise. In this case, sandpaper can be used to smooth the rubber. If the issue is uneven pressure causing the wiper to wipe poorly, the distance between the springs should be adjusted.

Are Salvaged Parts the Same as Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Parts?

Salvaged parts are not the same as OEM parts. OEM Parts: As the name suggests, OEM parts are identical to the components originally installed in the vehicle when it left the factory. These parts offer the best quality and fitment, ensuring compatibility with your car. However, their only drawback is the higher price. Some unscrupulous merchants exploit this by selling non-OEM parts as genuine OEM components, substituting inferior products. Salvaged Parts: Salvaged parts are components removed from other vehicles. They offer the least quality assurance, as their condition may be compromised. Some vendors refurbish heavily used salvaged parts for resale, resulting in extremely poor quality. Using such parts on your car can easily lead to issues. Additionally, the sources of salvaged parts are vast—they may come from scrapped, accident-damaged, or flood-submerged vehicles. While you might luck out and find OEM parts salvaged from another car, most people aren’t that fortunate.

What causes the EPC light to come on in a car?

Car EPC light comes on due to fuel quality issues or electronic control system failure. The following are detailed explanations of the above reasons: Fuel quality issues: A constantly illuminated EPC warning light indicates a fault in the engine management system or electronic control, often accompanied by unstable idle speed or engine cold start vibration.
