INSP is a maintenance indicator, which means it reminds the car that it is time for maintenance. If maintenance has been performed recently, you can try to reset it yourself. The appearance of INSP means the oil maintenance needs to be reset. You can go to a 4S shop to connect to a computer for resetting, or you can use the reset button on the integrated dashboard to complete the maintenance reset. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Maintenance scope: Modern car maintenance mainly includes the engine system (engine), transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 2. Maintenance objectives: The purpose of car maintenance is to keep the car clean, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent failures, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. 3. Daily maintenance: Daily maintenance is daily upkeep, which includes pre-driving, driving, and post-driving operations, performed by the driver. The main content is cleaning, replenishment, and safety inspection, which are regular and necessary tasks to maintain the normal working condition of the vehicle. 4. Primary maintenance: It is performed by professional maintenance companies. In addition to daily maintenance tasks, the main content is cleaning, lubrication, and tightening, as well as checking safety components such as brakes and controls. Secondary maintenance is performed by professional maintenance companies. In addition to primary maintenance tasks, the main content is inspection and adjustment, as well as tire disassembly and rotation. 5. Secondary maintenance: Before performing secondary maintenance, diagnostic testing and technical evaluation should be conducted. Based on the results, additional tasks or minor repairs can be determined and performed together with secondary maintenance. The maintenance cycle for each level depends on the type of car and operating conditions.

What Causes the Dashboard Brake Light Not to Illuminate?

There are many reasons why the dashboard lights of a car may not illuminate, including a blown fuse in the dashboard, a dead car battery, excessively bright external lighting, or the lights not being turned on. The specific explanations are as follows: 1. Blown fuse in the dashboard: If the dashboard fuse blows, it will not only cause the dashboard lights to not illuminate but also prevent the dashboard needles from moving. In this case, a new fuse needs to be replaced to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the dashboard not functioning properly. 2. Dead car battery: Insufficient power can also cause the dashboard lights to not illuminate. 3. Turning the light control knob one notch can make the dashboard lights come on. This car has light-sensitive dashboard lights; when the surrounding environment is dark and the lights need to be turned on, the dashboard lights dim to remind the driver to turn on the headlights promptly (while the dashboard lights also illuminate).

What to Do When the ABS Light Comes On and the Car Won't Lock in a Baojun?

Baojun ABS faults can be checked based on the following aspects: 1. Conduct a visual inspection of the system to check for damaged wires, loose plugs, and low brake fluid levels. 2. Use a decoder to read and interpret fault codes to identify the fault conditions represented by the codes. 3. Based on the interpreted fault conditions, use necessary tools and instruments to conduct an in-depth inspection of the faulty parts to diagnose the fault location and cause. 4. If the warning light remains on, there may still be a fault in the system, or the fault may have been resolved but the fault code has not been cleared. Below is an introduction to the reasons why the ABS light comes on: 1. Issues with the ABS wheel speed sensor. The wheel speed sensor is located on the wheel and is easily contaminated by dirt or mud. If the sensor is covered with a large amount of dirt, it can affect the transmission of the speed signal. The ABS computer cannot determine the speed signal and will trigger an alarm. In this case, cleaning the dirt on the sensor and adjusting the gap between the sensor and the signal ring can resolve the issue. If the wheel speed sensor is damaged, it must be replaced. 2. Line connection faults, which are relatively common. Although all cars have ABS systems, the assembly quality and materials may vary due to different manufacturing processes. Loose connections in the wheel speed sensor wiring are quite common and should be checked thoroughly. Line troubleshooting can be tedious, so patience is required. It's best to inspect each plug, including the contact condition of related fuses and the grounding of the ground wire. 3. Issues with ABS control unit programming, likely due to mismatched or incorrect data within the control unit. The data needs to be readjusted, which requires a specialized diagnostic computer. 4. Problems with the ABS master cylinder. 5. Faults in the ABS control unit circuit board, requiring replacement of the computer. However, this type of fault is very rare.

What is the best mileage interval for replacing Focus spark plugs?

There are four points to determine whether Focus spark plugs need to be replaced based on mileage: 1. Copper core should be replaced every 20,000-30,000 kilometers. 2. Nickel alloy core should be replaced every 40,000-60,000 kilometers. 3. Platinum core should be replaced every 80,000 kilometers. 4. Iridium core should be replaced every 100,000 kilometers. The following is an introduction to the structure of spark plugs: 1. Steel shell: The lower part of the steel shell has fine threads for installation in the cylinder head spark plug hole, and the upper part has an external hexagonal nut for installing a spark plug socket to tighten or loosen the spark plug. 2. The metal rod is the center electrode. The lower end of the metal rod contacts the upper end of the center electrode through conductive glass, and the upper end of the metal rod is equipped with a terminal nut. 3. There is high-alumina ceramic insulation between the steel shell and the center electrode to insulate the center electrode when energized. 4. The lowest part of the steel shell is equipped with a curved side electrode. 5. The middle part of the steel shell has a copper gasket.

Does the Haval H7 have four-wheel drive?

Haval H7 does not have four-wheel drive. Taking the 2019 Haval H7 as an example, all models are front-wheel drive. The following is an introduction to the three driving methods of cars: 1. Rear-wheel drive: This driving method is mainly used in large and medium-sized trucks, but it is also used in some high-end cars and micro and light passenger and cargo trucks. It integrates the engine, clutch, and transmission as a whole and installs them in the front part of the car, while the main reducer, differential, and half-shaft are installed in the rear axle housing at the rear of the car. The two parts are connected by a universal drive shaft. 2. Front-wheel drive: This driving method is mainly used in cars. It assembles the engine, clutch, transmission, reducer, and differential into a very compact whole and installs it in the front part of the car. The engine can be installed longitudinally or transversely, and the front wheels have both steering and driving functions. 3. Four-wheel drive: This driving method means that both the front and rear wheels of the car have power. The engine output torque can be distributed in different proportions on all front and rear wheels according to the state of the driving road surface to improve the driving ability of the car.

What is a CVT Transmission?

CVT usually refers to a type of automotive transmission, also known as a continuously variable transmission. The difference between a CVT and a stepped transmission is that its gear ratio is not a series of discrete points but a continuous range of values, thereby achieving good fuel economy, power performance, and smooth driving, while also reducing emissions and costs. Working Principle: In a CVT transmission system, the traditional gears are replaced by a pair of pulleys and a steel belt. Each pulley is actually a V-shaped structure composed of two conical discs. The engine shaft connects to the smaller pulley, which drives the larger pulley via the steel belt. The secret lies in the special pulley: the CVT's drive pulley has a unique structure, divided into movable left and right halves that can move closer together or farther apart. The conical discs can tighten or loosen under hydraulic pressure, squeezing the steel belt to adjust the width of the V-shaped groove. When the conical discs move inward and tighten, the steel belt is pushed outward (centrifugally) by the discs; conversely, it moves inward. In this way, the diameter of the disc driven by the steel belt changes, altering the gear ratio. There are two types of CVT transmissions: MT: Uses gear sets, where the number of teeth in each gear set is fixed, so the gear ratio for each gear is a constant value (referred to as a "step"). AT: Uses dual-parameter control based on vehicle speed and load (throttle pedal travel), with gears shifting automatically according to these two parameters.
