There are three scenarios when the exclamation mark warning light illuminates in a Jetta: first, the general fault indicator light comes on; second, the tire pressure indicator light activates; third, the lighting fault light turns on. General Fault Indicator: The yellow triangle with an exclamation mark is the general fault indicator. It may illuminate due to reasons such as clutch overheating, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, parking sensor failure, exterior light bulb failure, engine oil pressure sensor malfunction, or traction control system warning/failure. Tire Pressure Indicator: The tire pressure indicator, which also features an exclamation mark, briefly lights up during ignition before automatically turning off after a few seconds - this is normal. However, if the tire pressure indicator remains lit or flashes continuously, the most likely cause is abnormal pressure in one of the tires. Lighting Fault Indicator: The lighting fault indicator activates when an exterior light bulb malfunctions. This warning displays a bulb symbol with an exclamation mark inside, classifying it among the exclamation mark warning lights.

Below are the specific reasons for the reversing camera not displaying: Camera malfunction: The camera has an issue, with internal components damaged, requiring the purchase of a new camera. Power disconnection: The power supply to the camera is loose or disconnected, in which case simply reinserting and securing the power plug may solve the problem. Wiring issues: This is the most common problem.

How Long Does It Usually Take to Pick Up a Highlander?

The time from purchasing a Highlander to picking it up varies by location, depending on whether the dealership has it in stock and the factory's production schedule. According to surveys, it generally takes about 2-3 months on average. Buyers can inquire with their local 4S store before purchasing. Check the dashboard mileage: When picking up the car, besides checking for any external scratches or dents, don't rush to notice how strong the new car smell is upon entering. Instead, turn on the ignition and check if the mileage is within the normal range. Check the vehicle's manufacturing date: To determine the model year of your car or if it's a stock vehicle, checking this nameplate is crucial—it functions somewhat like an ID card. Generally, the closer the manufacturing date is to the pickup date, the better, similar to checking the production date when buying food at a supermarket. The nameplate is usually located on the door frame on the driver's side.

What is the fuel consumption of the Pajero V77?

The fuel consumption of the Pajero V77 is generally around 13-14 liters per 100 kilometers. Factors that increase fuel consumption are as follows: Potholes on the road: If the road is congested or uneven with potholes, driving for long periods in low gear will inevitably increase fuel consumption. Incorrect driving: Improper driving habits have the greatest impact on fuel consumption. Actions such as slamming on the brakes, fluctuating speeds, prolonged engine idling, racing to shift into neutral, and driving long distances at high speeds in low gear will all lead to increased fuel consumption. Prolonged idling: Compared to normal driving, the engine ECU controls a higher fuel injection rate when the car is idling or just started. If the engine is not turned off or frequently left running for long periods, fuel consumption will increase.
