The battery models are CR2032, CR2025, etc. These are lithium-manganese dioxide batteries, named according to IEC standards. 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 R if it is square; 20 indicates that the battery diameter is 20mm; 32 represents a battery height of 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity is approximately 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. Under ideal usage conditions (sealed, room temperature, no moisture interference, etc.), the lifespan can be further extended to 8 years or even 10 years. The usage time of a car remote key battery is closely related to the frequency of use. The more frequently it is used, the shorter the lifespan will be. If the remote key battery runs out, the mechanical key can be used directly to unlock 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: This is one of the most commonly used car remote batteries. The battery voltage is 3V, while most car key batteries operate at 9V, so three batteries need to be replaced each time. Examples include Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen, Mazda, etc. CR2016 specifications: battery diameter 20mm, thickness 1.6mm. Button-type CR2025 battery: Its usage rate is much lower than CR2016, but 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 ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, propylene carbonate, and lithium perchlorate. It is shaped like a button, hence the name button lithium battery or lithium-manganese button battery. Button battery CR2450: Compared to the other three, it is thicker and larger, with a diameter of 24.5mm and a height of 5.0mm. The rated current value of CR2450 is 0.2mA, mainly used in low-power electronic products. Generally, such batteries can provide an output current of 0.001mA to 5mA, with a continuous output current of up to 15mA and a flash output current of up to 30mA, meeting the requirements of most small electronic products for light emission, sound, and RF output.

What is a Beihu Car?

A Beihu car refers to a vehicle that cannot be transferred to another owner. Although it is a regular car with all procedures possibly completed, including valid annual inspections and insurance, the ownership cannot be legally transferred. The 'Beihu' phenomenon is a hidden risk in the used car market, posing potential dangers to both parties involved in the transaction. Despite the current scarcity of license plates in cities like Beijing, it is still safer to follow the proper transfer procedures. The risks that the original owner faces when selling a Beihu car include: 1. If the current owner commits a hit-and-run, traffic police will not pursue the current owner but will hold the original owner responsible. The original owner may be liable for medical expenses, nursing costs, other compensations, and even legal consequences in severe cases. 2. If the current owner violates traffic rules, the original owner will bear the penalties. 3. In first-tier cities like Beijing and Shanghai, the original owner may be unable to purchase a new car and register it under their name.

What Causes Brake Noise When Starting?

Reasons and solutions for brake noise when starting: 1. New car or recently replaced brake pads producing noise This is usually because the brake pads and brake discs are brand new and haven't gone through the break-in period, resulting in abnormal sounds. Solution: The noise should disappear after some use, which is normal. 2. Foreign objects between brake pads and brake discs causing noise While driving, sand particles may enter between the brake pads and discs, sometimes causing friction noise. Solution: Clean the foreign objects from the brake system. 3. Low temperature causing brake noise Low-frequency noise when braking during cold starts. Due to low temperatures, rubber components in the chassis suspension become stiff, and some may vibrate with the frame, causing low-frequency noise from the brake calipers or suspension system. Solution: Drive for a while until the vehicle warms up. 4. Loose or aged suspension/chassis components causing brake noise Missing or damaged brake disc mounting screws can also cause brake noise. Loose or aged components like shock absorber mounting screws, stabilizer bar rubber bushings, or ball joints can cause brake noise while driving. Solution: Regular inspection and replacement. 5. Brake disc corrosion causing brake noise Brake discs and pads may corrode due to water exposure or prolonged parking, especially after long-term handbrake use, causing adhesion between discs and pads and initial driving noise. Solution: Inspect and replace brake discs. 6. Severely worn brake pads/discs causing abnormal noise Brake pads usually have wear indicators. When pads wear to their limit, the indicator rubs against the disc, producing noise. Worn brake discs may also cause noise due to surface contamination, uneven material density, excessive operating temperature, or improper installation torque. Solution: Inspect and replace brake pads or discs.

Does a Rusty Wheel Hub Axle Need to Be Treated?

For a rusty wheel hub axle, you can use water sandpaper dipped in water to gently remove the rust spots. After thoroughly cleaning, apply a layer of primer. The wheel hub axle often accumulates rust and other impurities. If left uncleaned for a long time, even after removing all the tire bolts, the tire may still be difficult to detach. The area where the wheel center connects with the hub axle can become extremely hot, and with rust filling the gaps, the wheel can become firmly stuck to the axle. Sometimes, you might need to kick it to loosen it, and in severe cases, it may not budge even with forceful kicking. In serious situations, replacing the wheel hub may be necessary. The steps for wheel hub rust removal are as follows: 1. First, rinse the tire's steel rim with clean water to wash away any dirt. 2. Then, evenly spray a rust remover onto the rusted areas. 3. Wait for a while, then use a sponge to repeatedly scrub the surface of the steel rim. The rust spots attached to it will disappear. 4. Finally, rinse it again with clean water.

How to Identify Whether a Car Air Conditioning Compressor is Good or Bad?

Here are the methods to identify whether a car air conditioning compressor is good or bad: 1. Check the sealing of the compressor: Use a manifold pressure gauge to test. Connect the high and low-pressure hoses of the manifold pressure gauge to the high and low-pressure service valves of the compressor, respectively. Start the engine and let it run at idle speed with a rotation of 2000r/min. 2. Measure the resistance value of the compressor's electromagnetic clutch: First, remove the electromagnetic clutch coil from the compressor, then use a multimeter to measure its resistance. Since the standard resistance of the electromagnetic clutch coil is (3.7±0.2)Ω, use the ohmmeter function of the multimeter to avoid measurement errors. If the multimeter needle does not move during measurement, it indicates that the electromagnetic clutch coil is open. If the measured value is less than 3.5Ω, it indicates that the coil is short-circuited, open, or the electromagnetic coil should be replaced. 3. Check the operating state of the compressor: Whether the drive belt is broken or loose—if the drive belt is too loose, it will slip, accelerate wear, and fail to transmit power; whether there is noise inside the compressor; whether the compressor clutch is slipping.

Can an Automatic Transmission Driver's License Deduct Points from a Manual Transmission License?

An automatic transmission driver's license cannot be used to handle violations for a manual transmission vehicle. This is because the permitted vehicle types for automatic and manual transmission driver's licenses are different. The determination of liability for traffic violations and road traffic accidents is based on the following three principles: 1. The party involved has committed a violation. The party involved in the traffic accident has violated road traffic regulations, commonly referred to as a traffic violation. If there is no violation, it does not constitute a traffic accident. 2. There is a causal relationship between the violation and the resulting damage. If the traffic violation is causally linked to the accident, the party will bear corresponding liability for the traffic accident. 3. If the party involved has not committed any violation, or even if there was a violation but it is not causally related to the accident, they will not be held liable for the traffic accident.

At what level of wear should brake pads be replaced?

Brake pads need to be replaced when their remaining thickness reaches 3.5 millimeters. More information about brake pads is as follows: 1. Brake pads are one of the most important components of a vehicle's braking system. The pressure from the braking system is transmitted to the brake pads through the piston caliper, and the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc generates braking force to slow down or stop the vehicle. 2. Brake pads are also a consumable material on vehicles. Generally, the need for replacement is determined by measuring the actual thickness of the brake pads. 3. Brake pads consist of three parts: a steel plate, adhesive material, and friction material. The effective working part of the brake pad is the friction material layer. Once the friction material layer is worn out, the braking performance of the brake pads will significantly decline. Therefore, when the brake pads wear down to the adhesive layer, they need to be replaced. The thickness of the adhesive layer is approximately 3.5 millimeters, meaning brake pads should be replaced when their remaining thickness is 3.5 millimeters.
