How to Fix the Ford Engine Malfunction Light?

There are mainly 7 reasons for the engine malfunction light to illuminate: Sensor failure: The sensors mentioned here include coolant temperature, crankshaft position, air flow, intake temperature, oxygen sensors, etc. When these sensors are damaged, have poor contact, or signal interruption, the vehicle's ECU cannot accurately obtain engine data, which will trigger the engine malfunction light. Fuel quality issues: If fuel and engine oil are not added according to the manufacturer's requirements, it may cause engine wear and trigger the malfunction light. Poor combustion of air-fuel mixture: Poor combustion can lead to engine carbon deposits or knocking. When detected by the oxygen sensor and reported to the ECU, the malfunction light will illuminate as a warning. Spark plug failure, ignition coil failure, fuel pump failure, and fuel line blockage can all cause poor combustion of the air-fuel mixture. Turbocharging issues: The intake boost piping and turbocharger can also cause the engine malfunction light to illuminate. The most common issue is turbocharger damage, accompanied by symptoms such as oil leaks, high oil consumption, reduced power, metallic noises, and blue or black smoke from the exhaust. Intake issues: If the vehicle's intake system has problems, it may lead to engine piping blockage, and in severe cases, the engine malfunction light will illuminate. A dirty air filter that is not cleaned regularly can cause intake problems. Exhaust issues: Exhaust system failures can also trigger the engine malfunction light. The rear oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, exhaust camshaft, and bearing failures are common causes of exhaust problems, with the catalytic converter being the most frequent issue. Using leaded gasoline, lead or silicon-based lubricant additives, physical damage to the catalytic converter, or fuel system failures can easily cause catalytic converter problems. Anti-theft system failure: If the vehicle's electronic anti-theft system malfunctions or the anti-theft controller does not match the engine electronic controller, the anti-theft system can prevent the engine from operating normally and trigger the malfunction light. If the engine malfunction light is on, follow these steps: First, check if the engine is running normally and if there are any issues such as shaking or smoke. If so, avoid restarting the engine. Note: Do not restart the engine if the red warning light is on. If the engine can start, turn it off and wait for 5-10 minutes. Without pressing the brake, press the start button once or turn the key halfway to the 'on' position without depressing the clutch. The vehicle will enter self-check mode after powering on. Wait for 5-10 seconds and observe if the malfunction light turns off. If the malfunction light remains on, visit a service center as soon as possible. The service center can use a portable diagnostic tool to read the fault codes, identify the issue, and perform targeted repairs.

How Many Attempts Are Allowed for the Driving License Subject 1 Exam?

The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulate that on the day of the Subject 1 exam, candidates can take the test twice. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 exam for that day is terminated, and the candidate must wait ten days before scheduling another exam. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for the Subject 1 exam is 90 out of 100, with the test consisting of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 exam content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately for the exam, no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting area. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam hall. Upon entering the exam hall, candidates will be assigned a seat at the identity verification station. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Without a signature, the result is invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject allows one exam attempt, with one retake if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the exam session is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, only five exam attempts are allowed. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams must be scheduled ten days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge test. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

Where is the QR code for motor vehicles?

The QR code for motor vehicles is located at the bottom left corner of the front windshield, and in some cities, it is also found on the license plate. The QR code contains license identification information such as the issuing authority, unique serial number, and license plate number, as well as technical parameters of the vehicle and owner information. Only internal traffic police equipment can scan the QR code; ordinary mobile phones cannot recognize the QR code on the license plate, preventing the leakage of personal information. The specific application of QR code vehicle management involves the management of vehicle information, safety, inspection, and approval. As a means of transportation, vehicles and their drivers are constantly in dynamic motion through time and space.
