I've dealt with numerous electrical issues on the 911. Its fuse boxes are primarily located in two positions: there's a black plastic box with a lightning symbol on the right side of the engine bay near the windshield; and a more commonly used location on the driver's side - look down and to the outside of your left leg, you'll find a grooved plastic cover that can be pried open with your fingernail. I recommend checking the driver's side location first, as it's more convenient without having to open the hood. When replacing fuses, always ensure the engine is completely turned off, and use the dedicated plastic fuse puller - never use keys or screwdrivers to pry. There might be slight variations in locations across different model years, so when you can't find it, you can always refer to the owner's manual in the glove compartment.

Does it matter if it rains three days after crystal coating?

Crystal coating is not affected by rain three days after application. Here are the specific details about automotive crystal coating: 1. Concept: Crystal coating is a specialized hard protective layer used for key automotive components such as paintwork, glass, tires, rims, engines, and interiors. Its main components include polysiloxane, polysilazane, and inorganic silicon. 2. Function: The coating forms a robust fiber network on the car's paint surface, filling microscopic pores invisible to the naked eye, achieving a mirror-like finish. It adds a thin diamond-hard shell to the paint, increasing the hardness beyond traditional coatings and protecting the paint from damage.

Does the driver's license renewal reset the penalty points?

Driver's license renewal does not reset penalty points. The accumulated penalty points from the previous license will not be cleared upon issuing a new license. Points are only reset at the end of the scoring cycle after all fines have been paid. Below is an introduction to the driver's license point reset system: 1. Time: The cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points. It is calculated from the date the driver's license was first issued and continues to cycle accordingly. 2. Content: If the initial issuance date of the driver's license is May x, 2010, then the scoring cycle runs from midnight on May x, 2010, to 24:00 on May x, 2011. 3. Condition: If the penalty points accumulated during a scoring cycle do not reach 12 points, the scoring system will automatically reset the points from the previous cycle (after fines are paid) at the start of the next scoring cycle.

What does cylinder topping mean?

Cylinder topping refers to the situation where excessive connecting rod clearance causes the connecting rod to become too long, leading it to hit the engine cylinder when the engine is running. Reasons for cylinder topping: 1. Broken spring: Intake or exhaust valve spring breaks, causing the valve to fall into the cylinder; possibly due to hard objects falling into the combustion chamber. 2. Overly thick gasket: During an overhaul, the replaced connecting rod bearing is too thick, or the piston geometric dimensions do not meet requirements. 3. Blown head gasket: Frequent head gasket failures damage the cylinder block surface, and excessive repair may cause the piston to extend beyond the cylinder block surface when reaching the top dead center, resulting in cylinder topping. 4. Poor fuel quality: The cause of cylinder topping may be the use of low-quality fuel, which solidifies near the valve stem after the engine is turned off, causing the valve to stick in cold conditions and leading to cylinder topping upon startup.

What to Do When the Clutch Cable Breaks?

Solutions when the clutch cable breaks: 1. Start in gear: Engage the gear in advance. Since the clutch cannot be disengaged at this time, starting the car will cause the engine and transmission to operate together. This ensures that when the vehicle moves, you only need to control the throttle to adjust the speed. 2. Start in neutral: This method is more suitable when you have extra help, as friends can push the car to start it. In practice, shifting gears based on speed tests the driver's skills. 3. Towing: If the broken clutch cable affects normal driving, consider calling for roadside assistance to tow the vehicle to a professional repair shop for servicing.

What is the comparison between NEDC and WLTC test cycles?

Standard-setting bodies and test content are two key aspects of the comparison between NEDC and WLTC test cycles, as detailed below: Different standard-setting bodies: NEDC is a European method for testing vehicle range, with the full name New European Driving Cycle. The test standard originated in the 1980s, with its last revision in 1997. WLTC is the abbreviation for the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) test standard, established by the United Nations and introduced in 2017. Different test content: The NEDC standard includes 5 test cycles, consisting of 4 urban cycles and 1 suburban cycle. During the 20-minute test period, approximately 21% of the time is spent accelerating, 15% decelerating, 40% cruising, and 25% idling. The WLTP standard comprises 4 parts, where vehicles are first classified based on power-to-mass ratio, then undergo simulated driving conditions on a dynamometer that replicate global urban roads, highways, and mountain routes. This is followed by real-world driving on city streets, highways, and rural roads to determine the reference range.
