Trumpchi one-button start mechanical keyhole is located below the right side of the steering wheel. Trumpchi is a domestic automobile brand created by GAC Group to enhance core competitiveness and achieve sustainable development. In December 2010, the first model, the Trumpchi GA5 sedan, was successfully launched in the market, followed by the introduction of multiple models. Below is an introduction to the GAC Trumpchi GS4: 1. Configuration: Equipped with features such as automatic handbrake, hill start assist, and one-button start. 2. Appearance: The exterior is grand, stable, and high-end, belonging to the type of model that never gets old and is always pleasing to the eye. 3.

I've been driving a GAC car for a while now. The one-button start is convenient, but it's frustrating when the key fob runs out of battery. The mechanical keyhole is usually well-hidden and hard to find for most people. It's often located below the steering column, near the driver's knee area, covered by a small plastic cap that can be pried open with some force to reveal the keyhole. If you can't find it, check the illustration on page 38 of the owner's manual or feel around the side of the center armrest. Remember to keep the mechanical key handy, preferably in a compartment of your handbag. If the battery dies, just insert and turn the key to start the car. Don't forget this trick—it's saved me several times during long trips.

How to Install a Vehicle License Plate?

Steps for installing a vehicle license plate: 1. Screw the bolt into the screw hole at the license plate installation position; 2. After checking the screw holes, pre-assemble each set of screws in order from top to bottom: bolt, anti-theft cap, and washer; 3. Screw the prepared screws into the screw holes—this step requires a screwdriver. Note that these screws can only be tightened and not loosened, so ensure success on the first attempt; 4. After tightening, gently press the anti-theft cap into place and make sure it is securely fastened. A vehicle license plate is a legal mark registered by the statutory authority, permitting the vehicle to drive on roads within the territory of the People's Republic of China. The license plate is usually mounted at a specific position on the vehicle, and its number serves as the vehicle registration code.

Can Red and Green Antifreeze Be Mixed?

Red and green antifreeze cannot be mixed, as they differ in type, composition, and freezing point. Mixing them can cause chemical reactions that reduce the antifreeze's effectiveness, produce flocculent substances leading to clogging of the cooling system, and in severe cases, corrode the engine's water passages and cooling pipes. Functions of antifreeze: 1. It has anti-corrosion and rust-removal properties; 2. Its high boiling point prevents the radiator from boiling over; 3. Made with distilled water, antifreeze also helps remove scale. The chemical components of antifreeze include: inorganic calcium chloride (CaCl2), organic methanol (CH3OH), ethanol (C2H5OH), ethylene glycol (C2H4O2), erythritol, glycerol (C3H5(OH)3), glycerin, lubricating oil, sugar, and honey.

Can an electronic throttle be converted to a cable throttle?

An electronic throttle cannot be converted to a cable throttle. A cable throttle connects the throttle pedal to the throttle body via a steel cable, with a 1:1 transmission ratio—meaning the throttle opening angle directly corresponds to how much the pedal is pressed. In contrast, an electronic throttle uses cables or wiring harnesses to control the throttle opening angle, enabling automatic control functions. The engine structures of the two systems differ, and unauthorized modifications can trigger a chain reaction. The working principle of an electronic throttle is as follows: it controls the throttle opening angle via cables or wiring harnesses to achieve automatic control, replacing mechanical linkages with wiring. A small motor is installed at the throttle body to drive the throttle opening angle, known as drive-by-wire, which substitutes the original mechanical transmission mechanism.
