The battery model is CR2032. It is a lithium manganese dioxide battery, named according to the IEC standard. Among them: C - indicates a chemical battery system with lithium metal as the negative electrode and manganese dioxide as the positive electrode; R - indicates that the battery is cylindrical in shape, with F replacing it if it is square; 20 - indicates the battery diameter is 20mm; 32 - represents the battery height is 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity is around 200mAh. CR2032 typically has a lifespan of 5 years. If the manufacturer's production level is not high or quality control is poor, its lifespan will be significantly shortened. Domestic first-tier brand batteries can generally guarantee this lifespan. If the usage environment is ideal (sealed, room temperature, no moisture interference, etc.), its lifespan can be further extended to 8 years or even 10 years. The usage time of a vehicle remote key battery is closely related to the frequency of use. The more frequently it is used, the shorter its lifespan will be. If the remote key battery is dead, the mechanical key can be used directly to open and start the vehicle. Car remote keys use button batteries, mainly three types: CR2016, CR2025, and CR2032. For the specific model used in each vehicle, owners can refer to the battery model in the user manual for replacement. Button-type CR2016 battery: The usage rate of this battery in car key remotes is very high, making it one of the most common car remote batteries. The battery voltage is 3V, while most car key batteries are powered by 9V, so three batteries need to be replaced each time. Examples include Guangben, Toyota, Volkswagen, Mazda, etc. CR2016 specifications: battery diameter 20mm, thickness 1.6mm. Button-type CR2025 battery: Its usage rate is much lower than CR2016. However, it is still used in some car keys. It is thicker than CR2016 but has a relatively higher storage capacity. CR2025 specifications: battery diameter 20mm, thickness 2.5mm. This type of battery is also commonly used in audio remotes. Button battery CR2032: Its thickness is twice that of CR2016. The 3V-CR2032 lithium manganese battery belongs to the lithium-manganese dioxide structure. The positive electrode material is chemically stable manganese dioxide, the negative electrode material is lithium metal, and the electrolyte is a lithium battery electrolyte. The main components of the electrolyte are dimethoxyethane, propylene carbonate, and lithium perchlorate. Its shape resembles a button, hence it is also called a button lithium battery or lithium manganese button battery.

Does the Corolla Hybrid have subsidies?

The Corolla Hybrid is eligible for subsidies. Both individuals and enterprises purchasing new energy vehicles are granted usage subsidies. Pure electric passenger vehicles receive an additional subsidy of 5,000 yuan per vehicle on top of national and local subsidies, while range-extended and plug-in hybrid passenger vehicles receive an additional subsidy of 1,000 yuan per vehicle on top of national and local subsidies. Here are some details about the vehicle: 1. In terms of appearance, the Corolla Hybrid E+ is basically the same as the regular hybrid version, with only minor changes to the grille and headlight assembly. 2. On the side, the front fender features the "PLUS-INHYBRID" logo to indicate its plug-in hybrid identity. 3.

What are the effects of water ingress in the car interior?

Effects of water ingress in the car interior: When the water level submerges the car door, water is likely to enter the interior. Rainwater contains many impurities and is unclean, and the post-rain car interior becomes a highly humid greenhouse environment, prone to mold growth. If the vehicle is not dried in time, mold spots can quickly ruin the fabric and leather materials inside the car. Below is an introduction to the effects of water ingress in the car: 1. Hazards: If water enters the car, many electronic devices inside can be affected by water, leading to short circuits and damage. If water enters the engine through the air intake, it can cause engine damage. The consequences of water in the engine are very serious, ranging from requiring major engine repairs to potentially rendering the engine irreparable. 2. Precautions: During heavy rain, it is best for car owners not to drive out and to park the car in a higher area to avoid water immersion. If the car is submerged to the point where water enters through the doors, it indicates that the car has been waterlogged. If the car is found to be waterlogged, check if it can start. If the car can start and shows no signs of malfunction, the first step is to deal with the accumulated water inside the car.

Why is the dashboard of Volkswagen Lavida not lighting up?

The reasons why the dashboard indicator lights of the Volkswagen Lavida are not lighting up include damage to the dashboard illumination lights, short circuits in the dashboard power supply wires, and blown dashboard power supply fuses. The illumination lights in the dashboard have a service life, and if the light source is damaged, it can be replaced. Methods to solve the dashboard not lighting up: Visit a 4S shop for inspection, replace the damaged dashboard light source, replace the dashboard power supply wires, and replace the dashboard power supply fuses. Analysis of dashboard indicator lights: Warning lights: Warning lights have an alert function, such as the fuel indicator light, door status indicator light, seat belt indicator light, etc. Generally, warning lights turn off after the driver performs the corresponding action. For example, the seat belt indicator light will turn off after the seat belt is fastened. Fault indicator lights: Fault indicator lights are also the most important indicator lights, such as the generator fault indicator light, transmission fault indicator light, etc. These fault indicator lights rarely light up under normal circumstances, or they may light up briefly when starting the engine and then turn off. If a fault indicator light stays on continuously and is accompanied by a warning sound, it indicates that the vehicle has a malfunction or abnormality.

Does covering a car with a car cover in rainy weather have any impact?

It's okay to cover a car with a car cover in rainy weather, but it's not good for the car. Here are the relevant details: 1. The purpose of a car cover: To avoid scratches on the car paint during long-term parking. It also protects against corrosion from insect residues, tree sap, acid rain, etc.; it is not meant for rain protection, and the car paint itself is not afraid of water. Heavy rain can even help wash the car. 2. Additional information: The car paint surface can suffer from corrosion, dampness, and mold. In many areas, pollution is widespread, and some places experience severe pollution, where the rain is mostly acid rain. Therefore, rain exposes the car paint directly to acid rain, which can corrode the paint, leading to water stains, oxidation, and even cracking. Compared to sunny days, the car interior is more prone to dampness and mold after rain. Additionally, rainwater can seep into the car body seams during rainy weather, causing metal parts to rust and corrode. Therefore, after the rain stops, accumulated moisture should be removed as soon as possible to prevent mold and other issues.

Does towing an automatic transmission vehicle damage the gearbox?

Automatic transmission vehicles will not suffer gearbox damage when being towed. Precautions for towing an automatic transmission vehicle are as follows: 1. When the drive wheels are rolling on the ground, the vehicle should be in neutral: When using a tow rope, the transmission should be in neutral. In this state, there is no rigid connection between the input and output shafts of the transmission. During towing, only the internal gears of the transmission rotate idly, and no power is transmitted to the engine, resulting in a lower load on the transmission; 2. When using a tow rope, keep the transmission in neutral and do not remove the key: Otherwise, the steering wheel will lock. Also, pay attention to the speed, as excessive speed increases the risk of rear-end collisions; 3. For keyless start vehicles, press the start button to confirm the steering wheel is unlocked before towing: Otherwise, the steering wheel will lock once the vehicle moves; 4. A tow bar is more effective than a tow rope; 5. Remember to turn on the hazard lights during towing to alert other vehicles to yield.
