The SYS on the car dashboard is the abbreviation of the English word 'system', indicating a general engine system fault. Here is an introduction to engine-related content: 1. Energy conversion: An engine is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc. For example, internal combustion engines usually convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. 2. Device: An engine can refer to both the power generation device and the entire machine including the power device (e.g., gasoline engines, aircraft engines). The engine was first developed in the UK, so the concept of the engine also originates from English, and its original meaning refers to 'a mechanical device that generates power'.

What to Do If the Roof Antenna is Leaking?

This is likely due to a loose waterproof gasket on the antenna. First, use a key or similar tool to forcefully pry off the reading light cover—don't worry, it's safe to pry. Next, carefully observe that the light base is attached to the roof lining with two clips. Gently press with your hand, and the light base will come off, making the issue clearly visible. If the leakage is severe, it's best to take the car to a local 4S shop or auto repair shop to have the antenna inspected and repaired.

Is there a way to remove the yellowing of car light covers?

Regular waxing maintenance can delay oxidation. Apply an additional layer of wax on the exterior; when the wax oxidizes, simply wipe it off and reapply a new layer. Polishing involves a subtractive process, removing the oxidized layer to reveal the underlying white car paint that hasn't oxidized. However, this method reduces the material each time it's performed. The least favorable option is repainting, which is the worst method. Whether done at a repair shop or a 4S store, even with the best paint available, it will still be significantly inferior to the original factory paint.

What Causes the Car Battery Light to Illuminate and How to Resolve It?

The car battery light will illuminate when the generator's output voltage is lower than the battery voltage, the generator is not functioning, or there is a fault in the power supply circuit. This warning light indicates that the generator is not producing electricity. Normally, it turns on when the ignition switch is set to the ON position and should turn off after the engine is started. If the car battery is low on charge, the battery indicator light will also illuminate. However, in this case, the vehicle can still be used.

Why is the Passat cigarette lighter not working?

The reasons for the cigarette lighter not working are contact issues and damage to the cigarette lighter socket. Here are the relevant details: Contact issues: Due to prolonged use and repeated insertion/removal, the spring clip may loosen, causing the cigarette lighter to lose power. First test the lighter's functionality using an electrical device, then check contact conductivity with a multimeter set to continuity mode. Socket damage: Repeated plugging/unplugging and improper use may cause short circuits that burn out the fuse. Check for 12V voltage output - if present, the circuit is functioning properly.
