Symptoms of a damaged car relay include the starter not turning, the starter being weak, and the starter spinning freely. Function: The basic function of a car relay is to use a small current to control the operation of a large current, acting as an "automatic switch." It plays roles in automatic adjustment, safety protection, circuit conversion, and switching in the circuit. Selection based on usage environment: Usage environmental conditions mainly include temperature (maximum and minimum), humidity (generally referring to the maximum relative humidity at 40 degrees Celsius), low air pressure (can be ignored if the usage altitude is below 1000 meters), vibration, and impact. Additionally, there are requirements for packaging methods, installation methods, dimensions, and insulation. Due to differences in materials and structures, relays can withstand varying environmental mechanical conditions. Using a relay beyond the environmental mechanical conditions specified in the product standards may damage it. Therefore, relays can be selected based on the environmental mechanical conditions of the entire machine or higher conditions.

Is Fuel Additive Harmful to New Cars?

For new cars with less than 20,000 kilometers on the odometer, it is unnecessary to add fuel additive. For vehicles exceeding 20,000 kilometers, it should be added as needed, generally one small bottle per tank of fuel. Long-term use of fuel additives can be harmful to the engine. Excessive use can increase carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, and if excessively added over a long period, it may even cause engine knocking, detonation, and worsen vehicle exhaust emissions. Below is additional information: 1. Driving Habits: The driver's habits have a greater impact on the car than the use of fuel additives. For example, frequent slow driving in urban areas with stop-and-go traffic can easily lead to engine carbon deposits. 2. Function of Fuel Additives: The main function of fuel additives is to increase the octane value of gasoline, making it burn more completely and reducing the formation of carbon deposits. This helps maintain engine power and fuel consumption, preventing decreased engine power and increased fuel consumption due to excessive carbon deposits.

What should I do if I run over the line in Subject 2?

What should I do if I run over the line in Subject 2? During the Subject 2 test, you should frequently check the rearview mirrors and accurately identify the reference points. Incorrect sitting posture may lead to errors in observing these points, so you need to adjust the seat and the position of the rearview mirrors according to your personal situation. First, follow the instructions from your coach to adjust the seat and backrest. If you are short, you may need to use a cushion to ensure a proper sitting posture. The timing of steering is also crucial, so you must control the speed—keep it slow and steady. This way, even if you steer too early, you can gradually correct it.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Braking in an Automatic Transmission Car?

Abnormal noise when braking in an automatic transmission car may be due to the normal activation of ABS or electronic linkage. Here are the detailed explanations: Normal Activation of ABS: The working process of ABS is actually a cycle of locking-releasing-locking-releasing, keeping the vehicle in a state of critical locking with intermittent rolling. Therefore, when you brake hard and trigger the ABS, it will produce a clicking sound, which is a normal phenomenon. In this case, simply press the brake pedal firmly to the end. 'Clicking' Sound from the Gear When Braking in an Automatic Transmission Car: If you hear a 'clicking' sound between the transmission and the gear lever when pressing the brake pedal, the main reason for this noise could be the electronic linkage between the braking system and the automatic transmission. When you press the brake, the transmission solenoid valve opens and emits a 'clicking' sound. At this point, you need to press the gear lever lock button to shift gears, which serves as a safety reminder.

How Long Does It Take to Replace a Car Bumper?

4S stores take 3 to 4 days to replace a car bumper. To replace the car bumper, painting is required. The painting can be done on the same day, and then it takes 2 to 3 days for the paint to fully dry before the car can be used normally. If the car is painted in advance, the installation only takes about an hour. The car's bumper, also known as the car's anti-collision beam, is located in most of the front and rear areas of the car. The bumper has the ability to reduce injuries to the driver and passengers during high-speed collisions. The front and rear bumpers not only serve a decorative purpose but, more importantly, they protect the car body and the safety of the people inside the car. Replacing a bumper at an S store doesn't take long and is done quickly. Many car owners choose to replace the bumper with a brand new one after it is severely damaged. It is best to choose original factory accessories when replacing a new bumper, as the quality of auxiliary parts is not reliable.

Is an Emission System Malfunction Dangerous?

An emission system malfunction is indeed dangerous, and here are the potential impacts of such a malfunction: Affects fuel consumption and reduces engine lifespan: It can impact fuel consumption, and over time, poor combustion may lead to excessive carbon buildup. While it doesn't directly cause engine damage in the short term, an emission system malfunction can compromise the safety of the vehicle during operation and shorten the engine's service life. Increased exhaust resistance: During vehicle operation, issues with the fuel supply system, ignition system, or engine overheating can cause the catalytic converter substrate to sinter or flake off, leading to increased exhaust resistance. Environmental pollution: Due to the use of fuel or lubricants, the catalytic converter may become poisoned and lose efficiency. This affects the catalytic conversion process, leading to the formation of sulfur and phosphorus compounds and deposits inside the catalytic converter. Consequently, vehicle performance deteriorates, resulting in reduced power, increased fuel consumption, and worsened emissions.
