The battery of the Mercedes-Benz GLE350 is located under the front passenger seat, and the seat needs to be removed to access it. Below is some relevant information about the battery: Battery classification: Batteries are categorized into conventional lead-acid batteries, dry-charged batteries, and maintenance-free batteries. Typically, when people refer to a battery, they mean a lead-acid battery. The normal service life of a car battery ranges from 1 to 8 years, which largely depends on the vehicle's usage conditions. Battery principle: It uses lead plates filled with sponge lead as the negative electrode, lead plates filled with lead dioxide as the positive electrode, and a 22% to 28% dilute sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy.

What is the solution for fault code u0101?

Fault code u0101 indicates a communication loss with the transmission control module, which may be caused by wiring issues or connector problems. After this fault code appears, it is recommended that the car owner visit a professional repair shop or a 4S store for maintenance by a professional technician. The transmission control module is also called TCU, commonly used in AMT, AT, DCT, CVT and other automatic transmissions to achieve automatic transmission control, making driving simpler. The TCU is similar to the ECU, where the ECU controls the engine and the TCU controls the automatic transmission. The TCU is generally located in the engine compartment, shaped like a square or rectangle, with a metal casing and many heat sinks on the casing.

What is the solution for fault code u0140?

Fault code u0140 indicates a loss of communication with the body control module. To resolve this issue, it may be necessary to replace certain components. It is recommended that car owners visit a professional repair shop or 4S store to seek assistance from qualified technicians. The cause of fault code u0140 could be an open circuit in some wiring or damage to the module. Modern vehicles are not purely mechanical; they contain numerous electronic devices and sensors. When these electronic components or sensors malfunction, fault codes are generated. After repairing the fault, it is essential to use specialized diagnostic equipment to clear the fault code. Disconnecting the battery terminals is not an appropriate method for clearing fault codes.

How to handle the u0100 fault code?

u0100 fault code indicates a communication loss with the engine control module, mostly caused by wiring issues. When encountering this fault, it is recommended that the owner take the vehicle to a 4S shop for repair. The engine control module, commonly referred to as the ECU, is the brain of the car's engine. The ECU collects data from various sensors, processes it, and then controls the engine's operation through actuators. Without the ECU, the engine would not function properly. The ECU has self-diagnostic and protection functions. When a system fault occurs, it automatically records the fault code in RAM and implements protective measures, reading substitute programs from the inherent program to maintain engine operation. At the same time, these fault messages will be displayed on the dashboard and remain lit, allowing the owner to detect the problem in time.

What does 'Selected License Plate Pending Confirmation' mean on the 12123 Traffic Management Platform?

12123 Selected License Plate Pending Confirmation means you need to visit the vehicle management office for confirmation. After selecting your license plate number, you need to complete the following steps at the vehicle management office: Drive your vehicle to the local vehicle management office or license plate service station where the registration will take place. Bring the vehicle qualification certificate, duplicate of the tax payment certificate, compulsory insurance policy, owner's ID card, and vehicle origin certificate. Complete the vehicle inspection at the inspection window. Pay the required license plate registration fees, including costs for the license plate, temporary license plate, registration certificate, and vehicle license. At the vehicle license window, inform the staff that you have completed the online license plate selection. This is crucial to mention; otherwise, they might proceed with in-person selection, which cannot be undone. Finally, wait for your license plate to be issued. After selecting a license plate number on the 12123 system, if confirmed, the vehicle owner must submit the required documents to the vehicle management office within the specified time frame to complete the registration. If the application is not submitted within the deadline, the selected license plate will automatically become invalid and return to the pool of available numbers. The automatic cancellation of the selected license plate does not affect the owner's eligibility to participate in online pre-selection again. The owner can either pre-select a license plate online again or visit the vehicle management office to use the '20-choose-1' random selection system for license plate selection.

How to Deal with Fogging on Car Windows?

Use anti-fog spray: Apply a small amount of defogging agent on the car glass and then wipe it dry. Utilize air convection: Due to seasonal temperature differences between the inside and outside of the car, warm and humid air inside the car meets the cold windshield and then reheats, leading to easy condensation and fog formation. Use the warm air from the air conditioner: Turn on the warm air and direct it toward the glass to quickly heat up the front windshield. Fog: When the relative humidity in the air reaches 100%, water molecules in the air condense into particles suspended in the air. Water droplets refract light, similar to high-density suspended particles in the air, causing natural light to reflect at countless angles. Fog acts as a natural light barrier, obstructing visibility due to the infinite refraction of light by water droplets—this is why visibility is low in foggy conditions. Recommended Methods: In winter, use the "front windshield/footwell" vents while driving. Warm air is less dense than cold air inside the car, so the cold air blown in will rise. Thus, directing airflow from the footwell can make the whole body feel warm. Keeping one vent blowing on the windshield ensures continuous heating—cooling from the outside and heating from the inside prevent the windshield from becoming too cold and fogging up, while warm air also helps dry any gradually condensing moisture. In summer, avoid using the "front windshield/footwell" vents to prevent the windows from becoming too cold.
