In indicator lights, 'up' means right, 'down' means left, pushing away activates the high beam, pulling close activates the low beam, and a push-pull motion alternates between high and low beams. Turn signals are crucial indicators that are activated when a motor vehicle turns to alert surrounding vehicles and pedestrians. The turn signal bulbs use xenon tubes, controlled by a microcontroller circuit, with left and right alternating flashes for uninterrupted operation. Here is some related information: Classification of automotive turn signals: Automotive turn signals are lights that serve to warn pedestrians or vehicles in front or behind when the vehicle is turning. Based on the materials used, automotive turn signals can be categorized into gas turn signals and LED turn signals. Based on the base, they are classified as P21W; PY21W; W21W; P27W; W5W; H5W. Based on location, they are divided into: front turn signals; rear turn signals; side turn signals. Usage of automotive turn signals: Turn signals are the primary devices for conveying a vehicle's dynamic information, installed at the front and rear of the vehicle. They are activated during turns to ensure driving safety. For safety, please use turn signals as required, allowing people to know the vehicle's movements in advance and make correct judgments.

How many kilometers should car spark plugs be replaced?

Car spark plugs should be replaced every 20,000 kilometers. To determine whether spark plugs need replacement, they should be removed for inspection to observe their color, the gap between electrodes, and whether there's air leakage at the gap between the ceramic and metal shell. If removal is inconvenient, you can also check if the car has difficulty starting when cold or if there's a noticeable decline in engine performance. These symptoms likely indicate that the spark plugs need replacement. Precautions for spark plug usage: 1. There are many types of spark plugs, each with its own economic lifespan. Continuing to use them beyond this lifespan may adversely affect the engine's power and fuel efficiency; 2. During use, normal carbon deposits will form on the electrodes and the skirt insulator of the spark plug. If these deposits are not cleaned over time, they can accumulate, eventually leading to electrode leakage or failure to spark; 3. When spraying silver powder or performing other maintenance on the engine, pay attention to keeping the spark plugs clean, as dirt on the surface can cause leakage; 4. Do not use fire to clean carbon deposits and oil stains from the electrodes and skirt of the spark plug, as the temperature is hard to control during burning, which can easily crack the skirt insulator and cause spark plug leakage.
