The car heater switch is located on the center console area in front of the driver's position. The button symbol is a thermometer icon, usually distributed on both sides - one side is blue and the other is red. The red side indicates heating while the blue side indicates cooling, meaning red increases temperature and blue decreases temperature. When using the car heater, please note that warm air should not blow directly at the head as prolonged exposure may cause driver fatigue and affect driving safety. Therefore, it's recommended to open a small window gap for air circulation during prolonged heater use to maintain oxygen levels in the cabin and keep the driver alert.

Is Vehicle Inspection and Pickup Not on the Same Day?

Generally, the vehicle inspection and pickup should be completed on the same day. When purchasing a new car, pay attention to checking the following aspects: Exterior: When picking up the new car, inspect the car's exterior under sufficient lighting to check for color differences in the paint and any scratches or dents. Interior: Check the car seats for wrinkles, any unusual odors inside the car, and dirt in the corners to avoid picking up a flood-damaged vehicle. Glass: Inspect the production dates of the car windows. Generally, the production dates of car windows may vary, but they should not exceed one year.

Is There Any Harm If an Automatic Transmission Vehicle Doesn't Stall When Wading Through Water?

Generally, there's no issue. Precautions: After slowing down and parking in a safe area, it's necessary to inspect the engine compartment, engine air intake, wheels, and brake discs for any blockages caused by debris in the water to avoid affecting driving safety. Upon exiting the water, apply the brakes gently to dry the brake pads by friction. It's also advisable to check the air filter, fuel filter, and battery for any water ingress or moisture. Replace them promptly if any issues are found. Dangerous Situations: If the air filter is completely soaked with water and there are water marks in the intake pipe, the intake manifold may also have water ingress. However, the engine might not necessarily be damaged. In such cases, do not start the engine. The best course of action is to call for a tow truck.

Should You Press the Clutch When Braking?

During normal driving, you do not need to press the clutch when braking. Normal conditions: If the purpose is simply to reduce speed, gently pressing the brake is sufficient without engaging the clutch. This approach not only slows the vehicle but also minimizes damage to the car body. The correct operation is to brake early, downshift to reduce speed, and utilize engine braking without pressing the clutch. Engaging and disengaging the clutch unnecessarily can cause wear to the clutch plates. Emergency situations: In an emergency requiring sudden braking, simultaneously pressing the clutch and brake is the most effective way to control the vehicle's speed, ensuring safety and protecting both the car and its occupants from harm.

How many ignition coils are there?

This depends on the type of vehicle. For example, in some microcars with a 4-cylinder engine, cylinders 1 and 4 share one ignition coil, while cylinders 2 and 3 share another. A 6-cylinder engine typically has three ignition coils, and some vehicles have one ignition coil per cylinder. Below is relevant information about ignition coils: 1. Types of coils: Ignition coils are categorized into open-magnetic and closed-magnetic types based on their magnetic circuits. Traditional ignition coils use an open-magnetic design, with their iron cores made of stacked silicon steel sheets about 0.3mm thick, around which the primary and secondary coils are wound. Closed-magnetic ignition coils feature an iron core shaped like "Ⅲ" for the primary winding, with the secondary winding wrapped around it, creating a closed magnetic circuit. The advantages of closed-magnetic ignition coils include less magnetic leakage, lower energy loss, and a more compact size, making them widely used in electronic ignition systems. 2. Precautions: Improper use of ignition coils can lead to damage, so the following points should be noted to prevent overheating or moisture exposure: Do not turn on the ignition switch when the engine is not running; regularly inspect, clean, and tighten wiring connections to avoid short circuits or grounding; manage engine performance to prevent excessive voltage; avoid prolonged "spark plug arcing." Moisture on ignition coils should only be wiped off with a cloth—never use heat to dry, as this can damage the coil.

How to Identify a Car Engine Model Number?

The engine number of a car is generally located near the spark plug on the left side of the engine. You can find the engine number by opening the car's hood, and it is also listed on the vehicle's registration certificate. The exact position of the engine number may vary slightly depending on the car model. Here is some information about engine numbers: Contents: The sequence and contents of the engine number may differ among manufacturers. Typically, it includes the engine model, production date, and a unique serial number assigned randomly when the engine comes off the production line. Some may also include a place of origin code. Uniqueness: The uniqueness of the engine number ensures traceability, allowing for easier tracking when issues arise with the engine or when manufacturers conduct investigations to gather feedback.

What is the issue with a flickering car reversing camera?

The phenomenon of a flickering reversing camera is most likely due to poor line contact. It is necessary to promptly inspect the wiring and the connection points of the entire vehicle installation to check for any loose connections. If after checking the above two situations, the reversing camera still flickers, it should be because the reversing camera has been used for too long, resulting in poor chip photosensitivity, and there may even be a lot of snowflake-like interference. Of course, it may also be due to defects in the car's circuit design. However, situations like chip abnormalities and design defects are beyond our ability to resolve, and it is necessary to go to a repair shop for inspection, repair, or direct replacement.
