Fog lights are used to illuminate the road during rainy or foggy weather conditions. Generally referring to automotive fog lights, they are installed at the front and rear of the vehicle. Due to low visibility in foggy conditions, the driver's line of sight is limited. These lights can increase the visibility distance, especially yellow anti-fog lights, which have strong light penetration, enhancing the visibility for both the driver and other traffic participants, allowing oncoming vehicles and pedestrians to spot each other from a greater distance. In addition to the standard high beams, low beams, headlights, parking lights, rear running lights, and brake lights, most vehicles are also equipped with a set of anti-fog lights at the rear. Rear fog lights are red signal lights installed at the back of the vehicle, with higher luminous intensity than tail lights, designed to make the vehicle more noticeable to other road users in conditions of low visibility such as fog, snow, rain, or dust.

What to Do When Your Car Electronic Key Fails?

If your car remote key is damaged, you can go to a 4S shop to replace it with a new one. Here are the steps to repair a car key: 1. First, find a suitable workspace for soldering with good lighting and power supply. Use a screwdriver to open the remote key and take out the remote control box. 2. Continue to disassemble the remote control box with a screwdriver until you can remove the remote circuit board. 3. Preheat the soldering iron. 4. Start soldering. The electronic components on the circuit board are delicate, with many small resistors and surface-mounted devices (SMDs). Accurately identify any poorly connected SMDs and carefully reinforce them with soldering. 5. Reassemble the soldered circuit board back into the remote control box. 6. Test the remote by pressing the buttons near your car. If the response is quick and the car doors unlock normally, it indicates that the remote has been successfully repaired.

How Many Kilometers for Car Maintenance?

Generally, cars require maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Below are the relevant details about car maintenance: 1. Taking domestic cars as an example, the first maintenance is usually at 4,000-5,000 kilometers or 3 months, whichever comes first. 2. The second maintenance is calculated based on the oil change interval. The first maintenance time plus semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oil determines the mileage for the second maintenance, and so on. 3. Regular maintenance items mainly include the replacement of engine oil and oil filter, air filter, gasoline filter, and pollen filter, as well as the maintenance and replacement of spark plugs, transmission oil, and related system inspection and maintenance items.

What does the small wrench symbol on the car dashboard mean?

When the small wrench light illuminates on the car dashboard, it indicates that the vehicle requires maintenance. This is a reminder for the driver to service the car. The icon needs to be manually reset after each maintenance service. Car maintenance precautions: 1. Before closing other covers and the engine hood, carefully check to ensure no removed parts, rags, or tools are left behind. 2. When the engine is running, keep hands, clothing, and tools away from rotating fans and fan drive belts. 3. Brake fluid can damage car paint as it quickly dissolves paint coatings. 4. Be cautious when touching engine components immediately after shutdown as they remain at high temperatures.

What issues should be paid attention to when buying a new car?

When buying a new car, you should pay attention to the following issues: 1. Body appearance. Drive the vehicle to a well-lit location for inspection, focusing on the bumper and body gaps, and open the doors to check for any color differences between the interior and exterior paint. If you are unsure whether certain spots on the car are scratches, it's best to use a damp cloth to wipe them rather than picking at them with your fingers. The gaps between the doors, bumper, and hood should be consistent. If the gaps are too large or uneven, it may indicate that the car has been repaired. 2. Car glass. Check the lower right corner of the windows for relevant markings, as only original factory glass will have these marks, preventing the glass from being swapped out later. Additionally, each car's nameplate has a unique engine number and chassis number. Verify that these numbers match the codes on the certificate of conformity. Also, check the manufacturing date on the nameplate. The gap between the delivery date and the manufacturing date should not exceed three months, as prolonged inactivity can cause the engine oil to degrade and some wiring to rust or age. 3. Tire inspection. The tires of a normal new car should have no damage on the sidewalls, especially the front tires, and no puncture marks on the tread. The tire hairs should still be intact. Also, check if the production dates of all four tires are consistent. 4. Other checks. Inspect all lights, including the daytime running lights, low beams, high beams, fog lights, turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights, high-mounted brake lights, dashboard lights, door lights, reading lights, vanity lights, glove compartment lights, and trunk lights.

How to Deal with Loud Wind Noise in the Car?

Wind noise occurs when the pressure of the wind exceeds the sealing resistance of the car doors, so enhancing the sealing resistance is the most direct and fundamental solution. Introduction to wind noise: 1. Wind noise is divided into wind resistance noise and wind whistle noise. The sources of wind noise mainly include various door gaps, glass gaps, and gaps between different cover components. 2. Air noise is closely related to the design of the car, and car owners can hardly optimize it effectively. 3. Wind noise refers to the noise generated when the pressure of the oncoming wind exceeds the sealing resistance of the car doors and enters the cabin during high-speed driving. The faster the speed, the louder the wind noise.

What to Do When the Car Dashboard Shows a Small Airplane Icon?

This is the engine exhaust system warning light. If it turns off a few seconds after starting the engine, it is part of the normal system self-check. If the small airplane icon stays lit, there might be a fault in the exhaust system. If the small airplane icon flashes, it indicates engine misfiring, which can damage the catalytic converter. Here is some information about engine exhaust system faults: 1. When the engine exhaust system warning light is on, if the coolant temperature gauge and oil pressure warning light are not activated, the vehicle can still be driven. 2. Drive cautiously at a reduced speed and find the nearest auto repair shop for inspection. If the coolant temperature is too high or the oil pressure warning light is also on, and you clearly feel the vehicle malfunctioning, you should immediately pull over and request assistance.
