When driving on unlit roads at night, use high beams. Below is relevant information about high beams: 1. Proper use of high beams: Article 48 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that high beams should not be used when driving on roads with streetlights or other good lighting conditions. Therefore, if the road is poorly lit at night but there are streetlights or other light sources such as shop lights or moonlight, use low beams first. When there are no lights around and visibility is poor in the distance, promptly switch to high beams. 2. Turn off high beams when meeting another vehicle: Vehicles using high beams should switch to low beams at least 150m before meeting an oncoming vehicle to ensure good visibility for the other driver. If the oncoming vehicle has its high beams on, it can cause temporary blindness, making it difficult to see anything and increasing the risk of an accident.

What is the function of an engine stabilizer bar?

The function of an engine stabilizer bar is to prevent body roll by generating anti-roll resistance when there is a difference in the horizontal height between the left and right wheels, thereby avoiding torsion of the bar itself. An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, originating in the UK. It can refer to both the power generation device and the entire machine including the power unit. Types of engines include internal combustion engines (such as gasoline engines), external combustion engines (like Stirling engines and steam engines), and electric motors. An external combustion engine burns its fuel outside the engine itself and was invented by R. Stirling of Scotland, hence also known as the Stirling engine. Internal combustion engines come in a wide variety, with common examples being gasoline and diesel engines, which are typical internal combustion engines.

Should You Wash Your Car Before Applying Window Tint?

You should wash your car before applying window tint. If the car body is not clean, bumps will appear after the tint is applied, which not only affects the appearance of the car but also makes the raised areas prone to damage. Car window tinting involves applying a thin film to the front and rear windshields, side windows, and sunroof. This film is also known as solar film or heat insulation film. The primary functions of car window tinting are to block ultraviolet rays, reduce heat, prevent injuries caused by shattered glass, and reduce glare. Additionally, the one-way transparency feature of the solar film helps protect personal privacy. Furthermore, it can minimize damage to interior items and passengers caused by UV exposure, lower the interior temperature through physical reflection, and reduce the use of car air conditioning.

What is the appropriate length for car jumper cables?

Car jumper cables are generally suitable at a length of 3 meters. Cables that are too long will increase resistance and consume power, while cables that are too short are difficult to connect. When a car battery is low on power, it can affect the entire vehicle's power supply system, making it difficult to start the car. Use 16-gauge copper wires to interconnect the battery electrodes of both vehicles, then start the other car and let its engine idle. After that, attempt to start your own car. If the issue is a low battery, the car should start quickly. After starting, keep the engine running for 15 to 20 minutes to allow the alternator to recharge the battery. If the car battery is low on power, it should be promptly charged and reactivated using a battery charger. If the charger fails to charge the battery, a high-resistance repair device can be used to raise the voltage above 10V for recovery.

Why Can the Door Still Be Opened When It's Locked?

The reasons why a car door can still be opened when it's locked are: 1. One of the doors is not properly closed, causing the lock to fail; 2. The car door lock is malfunctioning.

Why Can't the Car Mechanical Key Unlock the Door?

Reasons: Incorrect operation - turning the key in the wrong direction. In most cases, turning the key clockwise unlocks the door, while turning it counterclockwise locks it. The lock cylinder may be faulty. Most car owners use remote keys to open their car doors. Below is some information about car keys: 1. Classification: Car keys are divided into two types—one without an anti-theft chip and another with an anti-theft chip. Keys with anti-theft chips are commonly found in some low-end models and don’t even have a remote control, which is rare nowadays. 2. Smart keys: A smart key is like a small radio wave transmitter. The chip inside the key contains a unique ID code that matches the car. When the smart key emits a radio wave, the car receives it. After verification by the car’s anti-theft system control unit, the key is recognized, allowing the door to be opened and the engine to be started.
