The flashing anti-theft lock of Great Wall Fengjun 5 is caused by a malfunction of the car's engine anti-theft system. It may be due to a door not being closed properly or a malfunction of the window lock button. Below is a related introduction to car anti-theft locks: Classification: Car anti-theft locks can be basically divided into three categories based on technical principles: mechanical anti-theft locks, electronic anti-theft alarm locks, and networked anti-theft (positioning, tracking) systems. Car anti-theft locks include: electronic car anti-theft locks, network car anti-theft locks, fuel line locks, clutch brake anti-theft locks, wheel anti-theft locks, gear locks, steering wheel locks, car anti-theft magnetic strips, etc. Electronic car anti-theft locks: Electronic car anti-theft devices can emit signals such as beeps, sirens, and lights when a thief enters the car, which can scare away the thief and attract the attention of passersby. There are many types of electronic anti-theft systems, some of which come with a dedicated remote control. There are many such anti-theft products on the market, but very few meet technical standards. Installing an electronic anti-theft device requires modifying the wiring and damaging the original car circuit. If the vehicle experiences a spontaneous combustion accident, some insurance companies may refuse compensation on the grounds of self-installed anti-theft devices, which must be taken seriously. Additionally, signal jammers on the market can interfere with most electronic anti-theft devices, rendering the locking function ineffective.

I've been in automotive repair for many years and have seen similar situations multiple times. For the Great Wall Wingle 5, the flashing of the anti-theft lock usually indicates that the anti-theft system is operating normally. After locking the car, the light will flash slowly, which is part of the system's self-check process, indicating everything is normal. If the flashing frequency becomes rapid, it might indicate a problem, such as low battery in the key, a door not being closed properly, or the anti-theft module sensing abnormal interference. In such cases, I would recommend the owner to first try replacing the key battery with a new one, typically a CR2032 model, and also check if all doors are securely locked. If the issue persists, it could be due to low battery voltage or a circuit fault, requiring professional diagnostic tools. Don't overlook this; addressing it early can prevent more complex repairs and ensure the car remains safe and reliable when parked.

I've been driving the Great Wall Wingle 5 for several years. At first, when I encountered the anti-theft light flashing, I thought there was something wrong with the car and was quite worried. Later, after consulting with friends, I learned that the light flashing when locking the car is a sign of the anti-theft system being activated, protecting the vehicle's safety. If the flashing becomes too intense, like what I experienced last time, it might indicate that the battery in the key is running low, and replacing it with a new one will restore normal operation. In daily use, observing the flashing speed is important: slow flashing is normal, but fast flashing requires checking the door locks or in-car sensors. I always remind myself to change the key battery regularly, about once every two years, to prevent sudden issues. After driving for so many years, paying attention to these small details can save car owners a lot of trouble.

As a new car owner who just got a Great Wall Fengjun 5, I was quite curious when I first saw the anti-theft light flashing. After checking the manual, I learned that it indicates the anti-theft system is active. The light flashing when locking the car is normal, but if the frequency increases, it might mean the system detected a risk, like a key battery issue or door lock problem. It's advised not to attempt repairs randomly; first, ensure the car is securely locked and observe the light's flashing pattern. If there's abnormal flashing, for safety, it's best to visit a repair shop and have a technician scan it with tools. It's perfectly normal for beginners not to understand car mechanisms, but paying attention to these signals can enhance safety awareness.

What Are the Solutions for Engine Stalling?

Here are the solutions for engine stalling: 1. Check the fuel tank to ensure sufficient fuel and the absence of air or water. Water in the fuel line can lead to incomplete combustion and cause stalling. Clean or repair the fuel pipes or connectors. 2. Inspect the filter for blockages. If the filter is the issue, consider cleaning or replacing the filter element. 3. Check if the battery is supplying power. Press the horn button to see if it sounds. If not, it may indicate loose battery connections, or loose or broken low-voltage wiring. Locate and reconnect or repair the loose parts. 4. Examine the fuel pump to ensure it is supplying fuel. If the rack is stuck in a non-supply position, the governor fails, or the control rod is detached, calibration and repair are necessary. 5. Check the spark plugs for issues. Faulty spark plugs can also cause stalling. If there is a problem, replacing the spark plugs can resolve it.

How to Contact the Car Owner to Move the Vehicle?

Here are the ways to contact the car owner to move the vehicle: 1. Generally, there is a contact number for moving the car near the front windshield of the vehicle. You can directly call this number. 2. You can notify the owner to come and move the car by calling 114. Currently, most cities have collaborated with traffic police to offer a 114 convenience service. By calling 114 and providing the license plate number, you can contact the owner to move the vehicle. Here is additional information about moving vehicles: 1. Ordinary people cannot look up the owner's information online based on the license plate number because it is private information and not accessible without authorization. Those who need to inquire must present valid documents to the insurance company and apply to find the owner by providing the license plate number. However, due to the protection of the owner's information by the insurance company, the required procedures may be quite cumbersome. If the purpose is for revenge or other improper reasons, the insurance company will likely not assist. 2. Traffic police or regular police can identify the owner based on the license plate number. You can directly call the traffic police department. If the owner cannot move the vehicle, you can report it to the police for handling.
