The reason why the remote key cannot lock the door may be that the key battery is dead, and it is recommended to replace the battery. If replacing the battery does not work, there may be an issue with the key components, and it is advisable to repair or replace them. Another possibility is signal interference; check the surroundings for high-voltage power lines, LED billboards, or high-power transformer equipment. Below is some related information: 1. Definition: The car smart key is a common keyless entry system, also known as a smart key system. It consists of a transmitter, a remote central locking control module, a driving authorization system control module, three receivers, and related wiring harnesses that form the control system. 2. Function: The remote control and transmitter are integrated into the car key. The vehicle can enter a locked or unlocked state based on the signals sent by the smart key and can even automatically close the windows and sunroof.

I had a similar issue with my old Fiat Viaggio. Usually, it's caused by the key remote's battery running out—the most common reason—and replacing it with a new one solves the problem. It could also be a malfunction in the remote itself, like poor button contact or internal circuit damage, leading to signal transmission failure. Another factor might be the car's receiver, such as loose wiring or a damaged module, especially if other door functions work fine except for the locking issue. Sometimes, nearby electronic devices interfere with the signal, like when parked near high-frequency equipment. Also, don’t forget to check if the doors are properly closed—if one isn’t fully locked, the remote might not work. I think the solution is straightforward: first, try manually locking the doors to narrow down the issue, then replace the battery or seek professional repair. Don’t delay too long, as it could affect safety.

How to Read Pressure on an Oil Pressure Gauge?

First, observe that the outer scale readings are in red, corresponding to the red unit PSI; the inner scale readings are in black, corresponding to the black unit MPa. Align your eyes with the dial scale, ensuring that your eyes, the pointer, and the scale form a straight line perpendicular to the dial. Read the value once the pressure stabilizes. inHg stands for inches of mercury, bar is a unit of pressure; MPa stands for megapascal, where 1MPa = 145 psi; PSI is pounds per square inch.
