It is possible that the trunk module of the Crown's battery has a short circuit or a blown fuse. Here is some relevant information: 1. New Crown: The domestically produced new Crown comes in four models and seven levels, all equipped with a 3.0L dual VVT-I engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, and using an FR (front-engine, rear-wheel-drive) platform, combining smooth handling with ample driving power. 2. Safety: In terms of active safety, the new Crown adopts advanced braking technology and excellent driving assistance equipment, including TRC traction control system, VSC vehicle stability control system, and VDIM vehicle dynamics integrated management system, ensuring optimal grip under various road conditions and achieving outstanding control effectiveness.

My Crown 12th generation trunk button won't open, and my car repair experience tells me this is a common issue. The trunk button itself wears out over time and doesn't respond when pressed. A blown fuse is the most common cause—check the fuse box on the left side of the dashboard for the one labeled with the trunk symbol. Loose wiring connections are another reason, especially if vibrations or bumps cause the wires to disconnect, affecting signal transmission. A faulty remote receiver could also be the culprit, either due to low key battery or signal interference. The trunk circuit in the 12th-gen Crown is relatively simple, but the wiring harness ages quickly. I recommend first testing the switch flexibility by manually opening the trunk. If that doesn't work, try replacing the fuse. Humid weather can cause rust to invade the connectors, worsening the problem. Get it repaired promptly to avoid affecting daily use, and have a professional shop diagnose the circuit to prevent minor issues from becoming major failures.

How many kilometers should the timing chain be replaced?

There is no unified standard for how many kilometers the timing chain should be replaced, as the usage and maintenance conditions of each vehicle greatly affect the lifespan of the timing chain. A well-maintained timing chain can last for over a hundred thousand kilometers, or even several hundred thousand kilometers without failure. However, if the timing chain is not used or maintained properly, there is still a possibility of breakage or detachment. It is recommended to regularly inspect and maintain the timing chain, allowing professional technicians to determine whether it needs replacement based on the actual condition of the vehicle. The replacement cycle for coolant is every two years, which can be extended to three years if the vehicle is not used intensively. If there are abnormal changes in the color or smell of the coolant, or if water has been added to the coolant, it should be replaced as soon as possible.

How long does it take to check for traffic violations?

Generally, it takes 3 to 7 days to check for traffic violations after they occur, and no more than 13 working days. Violations recorded by electronic monitoring usually require manual review. For violations on highways, the review process is generally faster, and sometimes the violation record can be checked the next day. Violations on ordinary roads take slightly longer. Since violations recorded by electronic monitoring do not come with paper notices, the traffic management department usually sends SMS notifications or mails letters to inform the vehicle owner. Traffic violations refer to the actions of vehicle drivers, pedestrians, passengers, and other individuals or units related to road traffic activities that violate the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, as well as related laws, regulations, and traffic management rules.

Is it no longer necessary to display the insurance sticker?

Whether the insurance sticker still needs to be displayed depends on the regulations of the local traffic authorities. Regions such as Beijing and Shenzhen have taken the lead in implementing the electronic insurance policy policy. Vehicle owners who purchase electronic insurance policies no longer need to display the insurance sticker on their car windows, as traffic police can verify insurance coverage through online checks. In other words, in these areas, the insurance sticker is no longer required. After the implementation of electronic insurance policies, individuals no longer need to provide paper proof of compulsory traffic insurance when handling traffic management procedures within the province. During traffic law enforcement, confirmation is made by real-time verification of the vehicle's compulsory traffic insurance information. Vehicles with valid insurance will not be penalized or impounded. For vehicle registration and inspection, the comprehensive platform checks the compulsory traffic insurance information, eliminating the need for paper proof. When handling accident cases, traffic police can confirm relevant insurance information by querying the electronic insurance policy.

What is the penalty for carrying a driver's license but not a vehicle license?

The penalty for carrying a driver's license but not a vehicle license is: the owner's motor vehicle will be temporarily impounded, fined, and deducted 1 point, and a compulsory measure certificate will be issued until the owner presents the relevant proof of vehicle license before a final administrative penalty decision is made. The vehicle license is the ID card of the vehicle, containing information such as the license plate number, owner's name, engine number, and annual inspection date. Without this document, the motor vehicle cannot be driven on the road. The driver's license is proof that the holder is qualified to drive the corresponding type of vehicle, containing information such as the driver's license number, validity period, and permitted vehicle types. Without this document, one cannot drive a motor vehicle. Both must be possessed simultaneously for driving a motor vehicle on the road to be legal.

How long after purchasing a new car is it recommended to wax?

It is recommended to wax a new car every 2 to 3 months after the first 5 months of ownership. The paint layer of a new car already comes with a protective wax coating, and waxing too early may remove this original wax layer, resulting in unnecessary waste. Therefore, there's no need to rush into waxing within the first five months after purchasing a new car. The interval between waxing should vary depending on the vehicle's operating environment and parking conditions. For vehicles parked in garages and driven on well-maintained roads, waxing every 3 to 4 months is sufficient. For vehicles parked outdoors exposed to wind and rain, it's best to wax every 2 to 3 months. Generally, when the body surface feels rough to the touch, it's time to wax again.
