What is the reason for the fan not turning in the Sylphy?

Sylphy radiator fan not turning reasons are as follows: 1. Poor motor lubrication: The fan not turning may be due to insufficient lubrication of the motor, preventing it from driving the fan blades after installation. Adding lubricating oil can solve this. 2. Reduced starting capacitor capacity: The capacitor's capacity may decrease, reducing the motor's starting torque and making it unable to drive the load. Replacing the starting capacitor can fix this. 3. Prolonged motor use: If the fan has been used for a long time, the motor may wear out. After the motor's shaft sleeve wears, it can easily burn out. Long-term use can also increase the motor's internal resistance, reducing its load capacity and preventing it from driving the fan blades. Replacing the motor is the solution.

I've also experienced the issue of the Sylphy's fan not spinning. That time, my car's fan suddenly stopped working on a hot day, which scared me into pulling over to check immediately. There are quite a few possible causes, with a blown fuse being the most common. It's located in the fuse box under the hood, labeled FAN—replacing it with a new one usually fixes the problem. If the fan motor is faulty, you might hear no sound or see the blades not spinning, often due to aging or dust buildup. A relay failure can also prevent the fan from starting; if you don't hear a clicking sound, that might be the culprit. Wiring issues, like aged cables or loose connections, can interrupt power supply. I must remind you: don't keep driving if the fan isn’t working—engine overheating can easily cause cylinder damage. Get it fixed promptly; simple issues like a fuse can be DIY, but for complex problems, visit a shop. Regular maintenance, like cleaning the fan blades and checking fuses, can prevent many headaches.

If the Sylphy's fan stops, I prefer to troubleshoot it myself. The fuse is the most likely to blow—locate the corresponding one in the engine compartment fuse box and replace it if burnt. If the fan motor fails, there may be no response or unusual noise when switching it on, requiring removal for testing or replacement. Relay issues are common; listen for a click when turning it on—replace the relay if silent. Wiring problems include damaged wires or loose connectors; use a multimeter to check voltage for diagnosis. Internal fan stoppage may also result from resistor or switch issues. I find that regular fan cleaning and connection checks extend its lifespan and save repair costs. Always disconnect the battery before working—safety first, avoid touching live circuits. Address issues early to prevent minor problems from becoming major repairs.

Reasons for the fan not spinning include a blown fuse, faulty fan motor, or damaged relay. Circuit interruption is also a common factor. A stopped cooling fan can easily lead to engine overheating, which is highly dangerous. If the interior fan stops working, it will affect the comfort of the air conditioning. I recommend stopping the car immediately for inspection, as safety is paramount. Simply check the fuse and whether the blades are stuck. Only after repairs can you drive with peace of mind.

What to Do If You Can't Log In to the Driver's License Theory Training?

It may be that the information has not yet been uploaded to the server due to network or internet speed issues. It could be a scam where you enrolled in a fake driving school, although this possibility is relatively low, it cannot be ruled out. It might be due to an incorrect ID number entered during registration, which requires contacting the driving school. This situation occurs occasionally, as errors can happen when the driving school assists with data entry. Registration is only considered officially started after fingerprint and photo uploads are completed. If this step hasn't been done yet, online training cannot proceed for the time being.

How to Find the Feeling When the Wiper is Not Visible from Inside the Car?

Find new reference points. There are many positions on the car body that can be used as reference points to determine the position of the wheels, such as the rearview mirrors and the raised parts of the hood. Develop your sense of the car. For example, when driving straight, observe the distance between the rear wheels and the road dividing line in the rearview mirror to determine the position of the front wheels. After parking near the curb, get out of the car to observe the distance between the wheels and the curb, and determine the error between the observed wheel position and the actual wheel position. When meeting another car or passing through a narrow road, if you are unsure of the position of the wheels, immediately get out of the car to observe the road conditions ahead and the distance between the car and surrounding obstacles.

How to Read Traffic Lights at Roundabouts?

Typically, to make a left turn, you first need to enter the roundabout, drive in a circular motion around it, and then turn right at the intersection to enter the desired route. When driving in a roundabout, if you intend to turn left, you must activate the left turn signal; when exiting the roundabout, you must always use the right turn signal. When turning left, keep to the left side of the intersection's center point. Activate the turn signal when turning, and use low beams when driving at night. The variation is that some intersections allow right turns when the traffic light is red. Right-turning vehicles can proceed directly after ensuring pedestrian safety. Exiting a roundabout is considered a right turn, and vehicles can turn right without affecting the flow of traffic.

What is the difference between 95 and 92?

95 gasoline and 92 gasoline differ in the following aspects: 1. Content difference: There is no gap in quality between 92 gasoline and 95 gasoline, but the composition is different. 92 gasoline consists of 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 gasoline consists of 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. The higher the proportion of isooctane, the better the anti-knock performance. However, the performance parameters of each car engine are different, leading to different anti-knock properties. It is necessary to select the appropriate gasoline model according to the anti-knock data provided by the manufacturer. 2. Price difference: The higher the proportion of isooctane, the more expensive the price. Therefore, 95 gasoline is slightly more expensive than 92 gasoline. 3. Power difference: Engines with high compression ratios should choose gasoline with high octane values because the engine speed is high, and ignition in the cylinder will occur in advance. When the speed reaches a peak, the gasoline in the cylinder may burn before ignition occurs, which is called knocking. The higher the octane value of gasoline, the more effectively it can enhance anti-knock performance. Since gasoline with a higher octane value has higher power, 95 gasoline is more powerful than 92 gasoline.
