The cigarette lighter fuse in the Buick Excelle is located under the interior trim panel on the side of the main driver's center console. Simply pry open the interior trim panel to find the fuse box and locate the fuse. The fuse box cover provides a description that indicates the number of each fuse and its corresponding function. The owner only needs to refer to the description to find the relevant fuse. The car has two fuse boxes, one in the engine compartment and the other in the cabin. The 2018 new Excelle is equipped with a newly designed 16-inch dual five-spoke luxury two-tone aluminum alloy wheel. The dark coating combined with the precision-machined bright surface process creates a more visually rich and three-dimensional layered effect. The wheel adopts a lightweight and high-rigidity design, providing drivers with an excellent handling experience.

As an experienced driver, I can tell you that the cigarette lighter fuse for the Buick Excelle is usually located under the driver's seat on the left side, specifically in the fuse box under a small cover on the dashboard. Just crouch down and take a look—the cover pulls right open. Inside, you'll find various fuses for different functions, with the cigarette lighter typically marked as CIG or a similar abbreviation, using a 10A fuse. If you notice the fuse is blown (blackened at the top), simply replace it with a new one—just make sure to buy the correct amperage to avoid serious electrical issues. When frequently using the cigarette lighter while driving, avoid overloading it with too many devices to keep the car's electrical system clean and prevent frequent replacements. After replacing the fuse, also check the cigarette lighter socket for debris or signs of short circuits. Paying attention to these small details can help keep your car running smoothly and trouble-free.

What to Do When ETC Shows Low Battery?

ETC displaying low battery requires timely charging: For solar-powered ETC devices, you can park the vehicle under the sun for several hours to charge the device. For ETC devices without solar charging panels, you can plug in the dedicated power cable and charge via the cigarette lighter socket. The ETC installation process is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and the red light will briefly illuminate. The OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning properly. Clean the front windshield to ensure the glass surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front facing the driver and the back facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. Benefits of installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Reduces noise and exhaust emissions by allowing vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping, thus minimizing pollution; Reduced wear and tear: Saves costs by decreasing the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, lowering wear and fuel consumption. Users also enjoy a 5% discount on toll fees; Improved efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase vehicle throughput by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

What Causes an Engine to Idle at an Abnormally High Speed?

The reasons for an engine idling at an abnormally high speed are as follows: Fuel Injection System: If the fuel supply system pressure is insufficient or the fuel injectors are clogged, leading to poor atomization of the fuel injectors, it can cause idle speed issues. Check if the fuel filter is clogged or dirty, and replace it if any abnormalities are found. Also, inspect whether the fuel pressure regulator is functioning properly, and then check the fuel pressure. The normal fuel pressure value should be between 250 kPa and 300 kPa. Idle Speed Control System: If the idle speed control valve is dirty, stuck, or its control circuit is open, when the engine needs to increase the idle speed, the command issued by the computer cannot be executed, and the intake air volume cannot meet the load requirements, leading to idle speed issues or engine stalling.
