The yellow exclamation mark light on the dashboard indicates a traction control system fault, requiring the traction control system to be turned off. If this light remains illuminated when the traction system is activated, it signifies an issue with the TCS. Here are essential dashboard warning lights that require immediate attention: 1. Tire Pressure Warning Light: This light illuminates when there is a problem with tire pressure. Immediate inspection of the tires is necessary if this light comes on. 2. ABS Light: The ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is crucial for driving safety. An illuminated ABS light indicates a fault in the system, requiring prompt inspection. 3. Engine Fault Light: This light, usually yellow or red, indicates the engine's operational status. It lights up during vehicle self-check and should turn off after starting. If it remains lit, the engine condition should be checked immediately. 4. Battery Warning Light: Normally, this light turns off after starting. If it stays on, it indicates a battery issue that needs timely repair.

Is a cumulative score of 0 points normal?

Cumulative score of 0 is normal, indicating no points have been deducted yet. Normally, a driver's license starts with 0 points. If the license is used to handle vehicle violations, corresponding points will be recorded. If the vehicle has multiple violations, the points on the license will accumulate. Below is detailed information about driver's license point deductions: Overview: If a motor vehicle driver's accumulated points in a scoring cycle do not reach 12 points and all fines have been paid, the points will be cleared. If points do not reach 12 but there are unpaid fines, the points will carry over to the next scoring cycle. Additional Information: For a Class C driver's license, if 12 points are accumulated in a scoring cycle, the driver must attend a training course at the vehicle management office as required and then take an exam. The license can only continue to be used after passing the exam.

What Causes a Scooter to Lack Power?

The reason for a scooter lacking power may be due to prolonged high-temperature operation. Explanation of the reasons: The motorcycle might have been operated at high temperatures for an extended period, meaning it was driven in low gear for too long; the cylinder head gasket may be damaged and leaking, resulting in insufficient pressure inside the cylinder; the quality of the gasoline might be poor, possibly containing too many impurities; the throttle lever might not have returned to its position after being opened, remaining in the closed state. Inspection and Repair: Check if the air filter is clean: mainly inspect whether the filter element is clean. If it is covered with dust, it can be washed with soapy water, dried, and then reinstalled; check whether the cylinder pressure is normal: you can unscrew the spark plug, press hard on the spark plug with your thumb, and then step on the kick-start lever. If you cannot hold it down no matter how hard you press, then it is normal.

Why is there a smell of gasoline inside the car?

The reason for the smell of gasoline inside the car may be due to aging components. Explanation of the reasons: When rubber hoses age, gasoline may leak into the engine compartment, and the air conditioning system can carry the smell into the car. Gasoline pipe interface leakage: Gasoline pipe leaks usually occur at the interfaces between pipes. You can visually inspect by opening the engine compartment cover. If there is a leak at the interface, dust will accumulate on the surface over time, forming oily sludge. After disassembling the fuel pump: The work of disassembling the fuel pump needs to be done inside the car, and some spillage is inevitable during this process. However, the replacement cycle of the fuel pump is generally around 100,000 kilometers, so this situation is not common. Overfilling the gasoline tank: Although the fuel filler neck is not leaking, gasoline can flow into the carbon canister through the pipes. When the carbon canister releases vapor, it may also release gasoline. If the air conditioning is in the external circulation mode at this time, the smell of gasoline may be noticeable inside the car. Solutions: Set the air conditioning to internal circulation mode. After driving for a while, the gasoline will naturally be consumed, and the smell will gradually disappear.
