The water temperature sensor is located at the engine compensation tank. More information about the water temperature sensor is as follows: 1. Function: The water temperature sensor is involved in the full working condition correction of the engine and controls the operation of the heating fan. It is mainly used to detect the temperature at the engine's water outlet. Most water temperature sensors are negative temperature coefficient thermistors, meaning the higher the water temperature, the lower the sensor's resistance. 2. Circuit: The water temperature sensor uses a voltage divider circuit, which includes two resistors in series. The ECU determines the water temperature by detecting the voltage drop across the thermistor. The sensor has two terminals: ground and signal. The signal voltage varies between 0-5V.

Is It Correct to Use the Left Foot for Braking and the Right Foot for Accelerating?

Using the left foot for braking and the right foot for accelerating is incorrect. In emergency situations while driving, the body's reactions are often not controlled by the brain. If you habitually press both pedals simultaneously, it can cause significant damage to the vehicle. The brake pedal in cars is typically higher than the accelerator pedal, but in actual driving, the force control areas for braking and accelerating are quite different. When the left foot is placed on the brake, it tends to apply pressure unconsciously, which can cause the brake pads to overheat and wear out quickly. If both feet are used, with the left foot constantly hovering over the brake, it can lead to fatigue or even cramping during long-distance driving. Even if you sometimes feel you haven't pressed the brake, you might accidentally touch it. Moreover, in situations requiring emergency braking, moving the left foot over can increase the braking time.

Can a new car be driven without license plates for 7 days?

A new car cannot be driven without license plates for 7 days. An unregistered new car is not allowed on the road and must be registered with the traffic management department of the public security authority before it can be driven. If temporary driving is needed, a temporary license plate should be obtained. Driving a new car without license plates also carries a risk: in the event of a traffic accident, the insurance company may refuse to compensate for the commercial insurance portion, as driving without plates is generally covered under the insurance company's exemption clauses. After purchasing a new car, procedures such as purchasing insurance, handling the purchase tax, vehicle inspection, and selecting a license plate number must be completed. Among these, purchasing insurance can be done simultaneously with the car purchase. Handling the purchase tax usually takes half a day, while vehicle inspection and license plate selection take about half a day each. Therefore, if the owner is in a hurry, these procedures can be completed in one day, or at most within about 2 working days.

What are the time restrictions for non-local license plates in Shenzhen?

Shenzhen restricts non-local license plates from 7:00 to 9:00 and 17:30 to 19:30 from Monday to Friday, with no restrictions on weekends and statutory holidays. Due to heavy traffic flow on Shenzhen roads, the Shenzhen Traffic Police Department imposes city-wide restrictions on non-local vehicles during morning and evening peak hours, with severe penalties for vehicles violating the restrictions. Non-Shenzhen licensed passenger vehicles will not be penalized for the first two violations in the restricted areas, but will be fined 300 yuan and deducted 3 points from the third violation onwards.
