The reasons why the windshield washer stops spraying water are: 1. Insufficient washer fluid; 2. Incorrect washer fluid selection, causing the washer fluid reservoir to freeze and crack; 3. Malfunction of the windshield washer pump; 4. Faulty washer fluid hoses or nozzles. Solutions: 1. Refill the washer fluid; 2. Choose an antifreeze-type washer fluid. The windshield wiper, also known as the wiper blade, is a device used to wipe away raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield to improve the driver's visibility and enhance driving safety. Due to legal requirements, almost all vehicles are equipped with wipers, and rear windows of hatchbacks and SUVs also have wipers.

Does black transmission fluid definitely indicate a problem?

Black transmission fluid definitely indicates a problem. Here are relevant introductions about transmission fluid: 1. Normal transmission fluid: Should be odorless, semi-transparent, red or yellow in color. If the vehicle's operating conditions are good with clean ATF fluid and minimal impurities (visible to naked eye), the maintenance cycle can be appropriately extended. 2. Abnormal transmission fluid: If operating under special conditions such as frequent sandstorms, road congestion, poor air quality, or harsh usage environments where the ATF becomes viscous, turns black, or develops odors (like a burnt smell), it's recommended to change the fluid and perform maintenance. If the transmission fluid appears black or has a burnt smell, it must be replaced immediately.

What is a Semi-Trailer?

A semi-trailer is a type of trailer where the axles are positioned behind the vehicle's center of gravity (when the vehicle is evenly loaded) and is equipped with a coupling device that transmits both horizontal and vertical forces to the tractor. Here are the details: Uses of Semi-Trailers: Semi-trailers are primarily used to transport large, indivisible cargo, such as excavators. Flatbed or fence-style trailers are suitable for hauling perishable goods like vegetables and fruits, while enclosed or box-style trailers are ideal for bulk goods and moisture-sensitive or high-value cargo. Differences Between Semi-Trailers and Full Trailers: Unlike full trailers, semi-trailers have their axles positioned behind the vehicle's center of gravity (when evenly loaded) and feature a coupling device that transmits forces to the tractor. Typically, full trailers have two axles, while semi-trailers have one. A semi-trailer lacks its own power and relies on the tractor for both support and movement. Simply put, full trailers connect to the truck via a hitch, whereas semi-trailers attach to the tractor's fifth wheel using a kingpin. A common example is the container transport vehicle, where the rear loading section is a semi-trailer. Their uses also differ: full trailers are mainly for short-distance transport within factories, ports, docks, or warehouses, while semi-trailers are designed for long-haul cargo transportation.

How Many Amps is a Motorcycle Battery?

Motorcycle batteries are generally 2.5A, 4A, 5A, 7A, or 9A. 2.5A and 4A are not commonly used. 5A is typically used for 90cc, 100cc, and 110cc engines, costing around 70 yuan. 7A and 9A are generally used for engines above 125cc. Avoid storing the battery in a discharged state: A discharged state refers to when the battery is not recharged promptly after use. In this state, sulfation is likely to occur, where lead sulfate crystals form on the plates, blocking ion channels and leading to insufficient charging and reduced battery capacity. The longer the battery remains idle in a discharged state, the more severe the damage becomes. When the battery is not in use, it should be charged once a month to extend its lifespan. Regular inspection is essential: During use, if the range of an electric bicycle suddenly drops by more than ten kilometers in a short period, it is highly likely that at least one battery in the group has issues such as broken cells, softened plates, or shedding of active material from the plates, leading to a short circuit. In such cases, it is important to promptly visit a professional battery repair facility for inspection, repair, or replacement.

How many kilometers does a car travel per minute?

This is not a fixed factor. If calculated at 100 kilometers per hour, a car can travel 1.6 kilometers per minute. However, how far a car can travel per minute depends on its engine displacement, as cars with different displacements have varying speeds. The following section introduces car engine displacement: 1. Classification: In China, car classifications are determined based on engine displacement. 2. Examples: The engine displacement of a mini car is less than or equal to 1.0L; the displacement of an economy car ranges from 1.0L to 1.6L; the displacement of a mid-size car ranges from 1.6L to 2.5L; the displacement of a full-size car ranges from 2.5L to 4.0L; and the displacement of a luxury car is greater than 4.0L.

What Causes Engine Cylinder Cracking?

Engine block cracking can be caused by the following reasons. Lack of coolant in the radiator: If only water is added to the radiator without antifreeze, the water inside the engine block may freeze when the outside temperature is too low, causing the block to crack. Additionally, if the engine overheats and too much cold water is added directly or poured onto the engine, the sudden cooling can cause thermal shock, leading to cracks in the engine block. During severe impacts, the engine block may also develop cracks. The engine block is the most critical component of a car engine, providing installation and support for various engine parts, ensuring the accurate positioning of moving components such as pistons, connecting rods, and crankshafts, and facilitating engine ventilation, cooling, and lubrication. Water entering the engine cylinders: This can cause the connecting rods to break. When a vehicle drives through flooded roads, water may be sucked into the cylinders. Initially, the water entering the cylinders quickly turns into steam due to the high temperature, preventing the formation of a combustible air-fuel mixture. As more water enters, it accumulates on top of the pistons, reducing the effective volume of the combustion chamber and increasing compression resistance, which in turn increases the pressure transmitted to the connecting rods. When the water volume reaches a certain level, the compression stroke essentially compresses the water, drastically increasing the pressure on the connecting rods, leading to bending, deformation, or even breakage, and potentially damaging the engine block.

What is the storage compartment in front of the passenger seat called?

The storage compartment in front of the passenger seat is generally called the "glove box" or passenger storage compartment. Here is more information about storage compartments: 1. Function: The car glove box is used to store gloves or other miscellaneous items. 2. Location: It is usually located in the middle-lower part of the dashboard on the passenger side. 3. Composition: The glove box generally consists of an outer panel, the box body, and the glove box bin. The glove box door is typically made up of an outer panel and an inner panel, which are fixed together using vibration friction welding, hot plate welding, or screws. 4. Space: There are generally two types of glove box storage spaces: fixed and flip-type. The flip-type glove box has storage space on the door, which flips out along with the inner bin when opened, making it easier to access items, though the space is limited.
