Solutions for a dead battery in an automatic transmission car are as follows: 1. Seek help from other car owners to jump-start the battery using emergency jumper cables. 2. Connect the negative terminal of the jumper cable to the negative terminal of the dead battery, and the other end to the negative terminal of the working battery. Similarly, connect the positive terminal of the jumper cable to the positive terminal of the dead battery, and the other end to the positive terminal of the working battery. 3. After starting the engine, first remove the positive terminal from the working battery, then remove the cable from the dead battery. Similarly, remove the negative terminal from the working battery first, then from the dead battery. 4. Automatic transmission cars cannot be push-started when the battery is dead, as the steering wheel will be locked and the transmission may be damaged. When towing is necessary, the transmission can only be protected from damage if the battery is supplying power.

How many reverse lights are on the 14th-generation Sylphy?

The reason for the reverse light being on is that the Nissan Sylphy has only one reverse light, located at the rear on the same side as the driver's seat. According to EU ECE R38 regulations, most EU countries allow: Position: one or two rear fog lights.

If two are configured, they must be symmetrically placed on the left and right sides. Working principle: The reverse light switch operates as a normally open switch (normally disconnected). When the reverse gear is engaged, the mechanical mechanism presses down the switch contacts, closing the circuit, which turns on the reverse light and activates the reverse warning sound. When the reverse gear is disengaged, the switch contacts spring back, and the reverse light circuit returns to an open state.
