The battery light on the dashboard indicates a fault with the battery or charging circuit. Here is a related introduction to the car battery light being on: 1. The main reasons for the battery fault light to illuminate include: loose battery connections; loose alternator belt; charging circuit system failure; battery discharge; severe sulfation, etc. It is necessary to go to a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible to avoid breakdowns while driving. 2. The function of the car battery light: The lifespan of a new car battery is at least two years, but if it is a used car or a stock car, you need to pay attention to this indicator light in advance. This light also illuminates during the vehicle's self-test and turns off after starting. If the light stays on after starting, it means the battery needs to be replaced.

What to Do When the Car Starts but the Door Won't Open?

There are many reasons why a car door may not open, but they can generally be categorized into the following situations: 1. The central locking system is activated: If the door won't open, first try using the car key to lock and unlock it twice. Then locate the central locking button on the left front door trim panel of the driver's side and press the unlock button. After this, try opening the door again. 2. The child lock is engaged: Most rear doors have a child lock. If it is accidentally left on when the door is closed, the door will not open. Therefore, always check if the child lock is disengaged before closing the door. If the door still won't open, use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the child lock to the off position. 3. The door lock cable is malfunctioning: In this case, the door cannot be opened from either inside or outside the car because the malfunctioning cable directly affects the lock mechanism. Replacing the door lock cable is necessary to restore normal operation of the door.
