What to Do When the Central Lock Fails and the Car Won't Start?

If the central lock fails and the car won't start, it is necessary to check the battery or relay working status. Generally, a car has two fuse boxes, one in the engine compartment and the other in the cabin, with the relay usually located in the fuse box in the engine compartment. If the battery is dead, jump-starting or replacing the battery is required. The central lock, short for Central Control Door Lock, controls the left and right movement of the linkage by changing the direction of the current in the actuator, thereby achieving the locking and unlocking of the door locks. The central lock switch inside the car is located on the driver's door and is a control device that can simultaneously control the closing and opening of all car doors. Once the button is pressed, the door locks and windows of the other three doors cannot be controlled individually and must be operated by the driver alone. Conversely, they can be controlled individually.

How much engine oil should be added to a 1.5L engine?

1.5L engines require 4 liters of engine oil. Whether adding new oil after draining the old oil or replenishing lost oil, avoid pouring all the oil into the engine at once. It is best to add gradually while measuring. When adding oil, first place the oil dipstick near the engine, then pull it out and wipe off the attached oil with a cloth before reinserting and pulling it out again. During engine operation, oil forms a protective film on the surfaces of various components, preventing direct contact and friction between parts. Direct contact and friction between engine components can accelerate wear and generate excessive heat instantly, leading to severe engine damage.
