gl8 not detecting the key may be due to poor battery contact in the key. Remove the battery and reinstall it. If it still cannot be detected, the battery may be dead and needs to be replaced with a new one. If the key is still not detected after replacing the battery, use the mechanical key to start the car and then visit a 4S store to inquire about the issue. Below is the working principle of the remote key: 1. The remote key is controlled via radio signals. The remote key has a receiver that detects 125kHz wireless coded signals, which are emitted by the comfort access system antenna. This radio signal is used to identify whether the transmitter is around the vehicle and to activate the identification transmitter. The remote key also has a transmitter that can emit high-frequency coded signals to verify that the remote key is valid and belongs to the vehicle, thereby executing commands such as unlocking the door or starting the car. 2. There may also be other reasons for the key not being detected, such as electromagnetic interference nearby, signal interference sources, etc. Some dash cams, if not properly shielded electromagnetically, can also cause interference.

What is the Principle of Xenon Lights?

Xenon light working principle: 1. After the power is connected, the transformer instantly boosts the 12V power supply to a high-voltage pulse exceeding 20,000 volts, activating the xenon gas in the xenon bulb. 2. Xenon lights emit light through the arc created by the discharge between two electrodes, similar to the bright arc light produced in welding. 3. The color temperature of xenon light is similar to sunlight but contains more green and blue components, thus presenting a bluish-white light, significantly enhancing the brightness of road markings and signs. 4. The luminous flux emitted by xenon lights is more than twice that of halogen lamps, and xenon lights have relatively high energy density and illumination intensity.

What to Do When the Car Pulls to the Right?

Car pulling to the right can generally be resolved by performing a wheel alignment. Wheel alignment is based on the four-wheel parameters of the vehicle, adjusting them to ensure good driving performance and a certain level of reliability. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Drive the car onto the alignment lift, positioning the front wheels on the turntable for pre-alignment checks, including tire pressure, suspension, and chassis inspection. 2. Proceed with data detection by installing sensors on all four wheels, securing the steering wheel and brake pedal, lifting the vehicle, and setting parameters for testing. 3. Finally, perform alignment adjustments based on the data, making corresponding adjustments to the four-wheel alignment data of each tire according to the degree of deviation. Once the adjustments are complete, test drive the car on the road.

What are the gears of a pure electric vehicle?

Pure electric vehicles have 3 gears, which are: 1. P gear: Parking gear, used for long-term parking, especially when parking on slopes. It needs to be shifted to P gear to ensure the vehicle cannot move when stationary. 2. D gear: Driving gear, when preparing to start moving, simply continue to press the accelerator according to your desired speed. Since the D gear of an automatic transmission vehicle does not have the engine braking function, do not keep it in D gear all the time, otherwise the speed will become faster and faster, and frequent braking will cause the brake pads to overheat and wear excessively. 3. S gear: Sport mode, the transmission can shift freely. However, using S gear will increase fuel consumption.

What is the function of the ABS system?

The functions of the ABS system include: Maximizing the effectiveness of the brakes, reducing braking time and distance; effectively preventing vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability; allowing steering during emergency braking, providing excellent steering control; avoiding severe friction between the tires and the ground, reducing tire wear. During braking, the ABS system quickly determines the wheel lock-up state based on the speed signals from each wheel speed sensor. It closes the normally open input solenoid valve for the wheel that is beginning to lock, maintaining the braking force. If the wheel continues to lock, the normally closed output solenoid valve is opened, causing the braking pressure on that wheel to drop rapidly due to the direct connection to the brake fluid reservoir, preventing the wheel from completely locking due to excessive braking force. This keeps the braking state at the optimal point (slip rate S of 20%), achieving the best braking effect and ensuring driving safety.

Does Tire Shine Damage Tires?

Tire shine, also known as tire dressing, can keep tires clean for a long time. Qualified tire shine products are harmless to tires, but avoid using untrusted tire dressings. Below is relevant information about tire dressings: 1. Composition of tire dressings: Tire dressings, or oils used for tires, contain palm oil, active wax, and some chemical ingredients. After car washing, some car wash shops often provide an additional service: applying a layer of tire dressing to the tires. 2. Daily tire maintenance: The most basic aspect of protecting tires is understanding changes in tire pressure, especially during seasons with significant variations like winter and summer. Both overinflation and underinflation can reduce tire lifespan to some extent, so it's essential to monitor tire pressure regularly. As for what constitutes normal tire pressure, simply check the tire pressure label on the fuel tank cap or the driver's side door for clarity.

How to Quickly Start a New Santana?

Methods for quickly starting a New Santana are as follows: The first method: Slowly release the clutch to the semi-engaged state, stop releasing the clutch and slightly apply throttle. After the car starts moving, gradually fully release the clutch. This is a more fuel-efficient starting method but is not suitable for hill starts. The second method: Apply a little throttle to maintain the RPM around 1500, then release the clutch to the semi-engaged state. Keep both the throttle and clutch steady. When the car starts with noticeable lift, release the clutch to complete the start. This method is less prone to stalling and works well for both flat road starts and hill starts.
