If a small amount of paint is scratched off the car, you can use a touch-up pen or perform a touch-up. The steps for touch-up are as follows: 1. Thoroughly clean the surface to be repaired before starting; 2. Use alcohol to remove wax, moisture, oil, and rust from the area to be repaired to enhance the adhesion of the paint film; 3. Shake the touch-up pen vigorously before use, hearing the sound of the mixing ball for at least 30 shakes; 4. Open the cap of the touch-up pen in an upright position to avoid paint spillage; 5. For deeper scratches, apply the paint repeatedly with the brush; 6. The area touched up with the pen may be slightly uneven. After the paint film dries, use 2000-grit wet sandpaper to smooth it until the surface is level with the surrounding area.

What is the method to reset the tire pressure light on the B200?

b200 tire pressure light reset method is: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "ding" sound, then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the previous data, and finally, the dashboard warning light will turn off, completing the tire pressure reset. There are generally three reasons why the tire pressure light comes on: Abnormal tire pressure: It usually triggers an alarm when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are necessary. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to come on. In this case, simply perform a tire pressure reset. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which is used to monitor tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged during driving, it can also cause the tire pressure warning light to come on. For sensor damage issues, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.
