Solutions for when the wiper doesn't return to its original position: 1. Check if the motor is functioning properly. If it is, then rule out motor failure. 2. Inspect whether the wiper is stuck or has an open circuit. 3. Check if the hardware lacks sufficient lubrication, causing excessive friction and preventing the spring from automatically returning to its original position. Here’s some information about wipers: 1. Wipers, also known as windshield wipers or windscreen wipers, are devices used to remove raindrops and dust from the vehicle's windshield. They improve the driver's visibility and enhance driving safety. 2. The wiper motor uses a 3-brush structure to facilitate speed changes. The intermittent timing is controlled by a relay, utilizing the motor's return switch contacts and the relay's resistor-capacitor charging-discharging function to make the wiper sweep at a regular interval. The wiper blade's rubber strip is the tool that directly clears rainwater and dirt from the glass. The rubber strip is pressed against the glass surface by a spring strip, and the lip must align with the glass angle to achieve the desired performance.

What engine is equipped in the Honda City?

The engine of the Honda City is the Earth Dreams engine, produced by Guangqi Honda Automobile Co., Ltd., and is classified as a domestically manufactured engine. The engine model of the Honda City is L15B2, with a maximum horsepower of 131, a maximum power output of 96 kW, and a maximum torque of 155 Nm. For the daily maintenance of the Honda City's engine, the following methods can be employed: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD to SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB to CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will deteriorate during use. After a certain mileage, performance degradation can lead to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve, carrying contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures proper engine operation but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Can the Secondary Combustion of a Motorcycle Be Blocked?

Motorcycle secondary combustion cannot be blocked. Below are the relevant explanations: Function: If the secondary air injection system is to be removed, all related tubes must be completely blocked, which is equivalent to removing the system. It is not called secondary combustion; its main function is to inject fresh air into the engine's exhaust gases, converting carbon monoxide in the exhaust into carbon dioxide for environmental purposes. Environmental Aspect: This practice is still for environmental protection. Even older vehicles had the engine's vent tube connected to the air filter to allow exhaust gases to be burned again, all aimed at environmental protection.
