Open the car hood, locate the brake fluid reservoir, and remove the reservoir cap to inspect the quality of the brake fluid. Use a syringe to extract all the old brake fluid from the reservoir, then refill it with new brake fluid. During the extraction process, avoid splashing the fluid on yourself to prevent corrosion from the brake fluid. Other methods for changing brake fluid are as follows: 1. Locate the two brake lines on the master cylinder in the engine compartment. Use a line wrench to loosen them until brake fluid begins to flow out. Once the reservoir is empty, tighten the lines. 2. Refill the brake fluid reservoir, lift the vehicle, and have one person sit inside to pump the brake pedal several times and then hold it down. Another person underneath the vehicle should use a wrench to loosen the bleeder screw on the brake caliper, allowing brake fluid to drain. Follow the farthest-to-closest principle: bleed the left rear, right rear, right front, and left front calipers in sequence. 3. Lower the vehicle, refill the reservoir, lift it again, and repeat the bleeding process for all four calipers in the same order. Once completed, tighten all bleeder screws and check for leaks to ensure a complete brake fluid replacement.

What does the car plus-minus light indicate as a fault?

When the car's plus-minus light is illuminated, it indicates that the generator's output voltage is lower than the battery voltage, the generator is not working, or there is a fault in the power supply circuit. At this time, the vehicle is running on battery power, and it is advisable to have it inspected and repaired at a service center as soon as possible. Like all batteries, if the generator and charging circuit do not charge, the car's battery will eventually run out of power, leading to the vehicle's inability to operate normally. Common car warning lights include the following: Tire Pressure Warning Light: A yellow symbol featuring an irregular circle that is not closed at the top, with four small spikes at the bottom and an exclamation mark inside. This symbol indicates abnormal tire pressure, and the tires should be checked promptly. Coolant Temperature Indicator: This light usually stays on when the car is first started, especially in winter. It has a blue thermometer-like design and will illuminate if the coolant temperature is too high or too low. Some vehicles have a temperature gauge on the dashboard with a needle that rises or falls with the coolant temperature. If the coolant temperature is too high, do not continue driving; stop immediately and wait for the temperature to normalize before heading to the nearest 4S shop or auto repair shop for inspection. Oil Pressure Indicator: An icon on the dashboard resembling a "kettle" shape is the oil pressure indicator, which lights up when there is an abnormality in oil pressure. The oil pressure indicator will illuminate when the vehicle is started. If the oil pressure is normal, it will turn off shortly after. If there is an abnormality, it will remain lit. Brake System Warning Light: A red icon with a circle in the middle containing an exclamation mark. This indicates a problem with the brake system, such as low brake fluid level or the handbrake being engaged.
