It is very likely that there is a malfunction with the electronic parking brake. Below is an introduction to the EPB light: Introduction: The full English name of EPB is Electrical Park Brake, which is the electronic parking brake system, also known as the electronic handbrake by car owners. Function: EPB controls the parking brake through electronic circuits, functioning similarly to a mechanical lever handbrake. When starting the car, there is no need to manually turn off the electronic handbrake; it will automatically disengage when the accelerator is pressed to start. The electronic handbrake has two motors at the rear wheels. After pressing the button behind the gear lever, the electronic handbrake motors can clamp the brake pads, preventing the vehicle from rolling.

What Causes Loud Engine Noise in a New Motorcycle?

Reasons for loud engine noise in a new motorcycle: Backfire sound: The noise is loud but not continuous. It manifests as the exhaust pipe backfiring and overheating during engine operation. The main cause of this phenomenon is an excessively small ignition advance angle, resulting in incomplete combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder. When the unburned mixture encounters heat in the exhaust pipe and spontaneously ignites or is ignited by a spark, it combusts and explodes, producing the backfire sound. Knocking sound: When the engine is running, using a "stethoscope" to touch the cylinder head reveals a sound similar to a wooden hammer striking, which is more noticeable at low speeds or when adjusting the throttle. This knocking sound is mainly caused by detonation or pre-ignition due to an excessively large ignition advance angle, excessive carbon buildup in the combustion chamber, or an overly high compression ratio. Misfire sound: This manifests as occasional one or two misfire sounds in the otherwise even and rhythmic exhaust noise during engine operation. This phenomenon is mainly caused by the sound produced by burnt or excessively small contact gaps in the breaker points.

What is Fixed Speed Detection?

Fixed speed detection refers to traffic speed monitoring devices such as red light speed cameras and fixed speed cameras at speed limit signs, which are pre-installed on roadways. Conqueror has professional staff who collect GPS fixed data nationwide, continuously updating the database. Fixed camera points require updates and downloads from the server to achieve the most accurate fixed camera alert function. Speed detection locations: On national and provincial highways, if you see a speed limit sign, there may be a fixed speed detection point ahead. The specific location is "between 500 meters after the start of the speed limit sign and the cancellation of the speed limit sign or the next speed limit sign." This means fixed speed detection points are set more than 500 meters away from the speed limit sign, not immediately adjacent to it. Cases where no record is made: Generally, cameras will record the vehicle's speed, take photos based on the speed, and identify the vehicle's license plate number. As long as the speed is kept within the specified limit, even if photos are taken, no record will be made. Speed detection uses average speed measurement, with the following working principle: It calculates whether a vehicle is speeding based on "average speed," using a two-point capture mode.

Do I Need to Go in Person for Driver's License Renewal?

If you are unable to personally apply for the license renewal due to certain reasons or being in a different location, you can mail your ID card, driver's license, medical fitness certificate (physical examination) issued by a county-level or above medical institution, and three passport-sized photos to entrust family or friends to handle the renewal on your behalf. Below is more related information: Driver's License: A driver's license, fully known as the motor vehicle driver's license and also referred to as a 'driving license,' is a certificate required by law for individuals who operate motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills, and those lacking such skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive recklessly. Generally, individuals cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who have mastered safe driving techniques, the document that permits them to drive vehicles on the road is the 'driver's license.' This indicates that a driver's license is a 'certificate of permission.' The authorization to drive vehicles is granted through the issuance of a driver's license. This shows that obtaining a driver's license is a formal procedure that must be carried out by a specialized authority. Internationally, a driver's license is defined as: 'a document issued by the competent authority permitting the holder to drive a motor vehicle.'

Can Run-Flat Tires Be Used on Any Car?

Run-flat tires are not suitable for all vehicle models. The "stiff" nature of these tires reduces their inherent cushioning capability during driving, resulting in increased tire noise and a bumpier ride, significantly compromising comfort. Additionally, vehicles primarily designed for comfort typically have softer shock absorber settings. Installing run-flat tires without adjusting the shock absorbers may cause damage to them, potentially leading to suspension issues. Furthermore, run-flat tires are usually more expensive than standard highway tires of the same size, offering lower cost-effectiveness. Below is more related information: Advantages of run-flat tires: 1. Structurally, run-flat tires have thicker sidewalls compared to standard highway tires, providing sufficient support to continue driving even when the tire is under-inflated. 2. Thanks to their robust sidewalls, run-flat tires offer excellent lateral support during driving, reducing the degree of body roll when cornering. 3. The ability of run-flat tires to continue driving while under-inflated brings an additional benefit: eliminating the need for a spare tire, thereby saving trunk space and reducing vehicle weight.
