What to Do When Car Lights Are On but the Engine Won't Start?

There is no response at all when turning the key (in this case, the dashboard may not light up). When starting, the dashboard flickers and there is a "click-click-click" sound, which is a very standard symptom of a weak battery. The starter shows no response. If the battery is over 3 years old and hasn't been replaced, it should be replaced promptly. Otherwise, frequent difficulty in starting may occur.

What Maintenance Should Be Done When a Car Reaches 50,000 Kilometers?

When a car reaches 50,000 kilometers, it's time for a major maintenance service. Here are the details about the major maintenance: 1. Replace parts: Replace engine oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin air filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, and belts. 2. Inspect parts: Check the chassis, brake pads, brake discs, tires, etc. Tire pressure must be checked regularly. Apart from the spare tire, the other tires should be checked at least once every two weeks. Low tire pressure can cause abnormal wear or internal tire damage, while overinflation makes the tires and rims more susceptible to deformation from uneven road impacts and may even lead to tire blowouts.

What Causes a Vehicle to Break Down?

Vehicle breakdowns are related to the battery, fuel pump, and transmission. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Battery: Insufficient charge makes it difficult to start. If the battery voltage is too low, it cannot complete the normal ignition of the car. 2. Fuel pump: Burned wiring prevents fuel supply. If the fuel level is too low, exposing the fuel pump, it may overheat or even burn out the wiring. 3. Transmission: Coasting in neutral increases friction in the gear-shifting mechanism. Frequent coasting in neutral may cause the secondary shaft to seize. It can also lead to severe wear between the secondary shaft and the gear-shifting components, ultimately resulting in transmission failure.
