Where is the starter motor located on the Baojun 730? It's directly above the transmission. Working principle of the starter motor: The starter motor converts electrical energy from the battery into mechanical energy. Power source of the starter motor: The starter motor is powered by the battery or DC power source. Purpose of the starter motor: Starters are typically used for starting large internal combustion engines. Components of the starter motor: Consists of a magnetic field (stator), armature (rotor), and commutator. Baojun 730 specifications: Fuel consumption: 6.3-8.0 L/100km, maximum power 111kW, product positioning: 7-seat family car.

I once repaired the starter motor of a Baojun 730, which is located at the bottom left of the engine compartment. It is usually sandwiched between the engine and the flywheel, near the wiring connections of the battery and the main circuit board. When I checked it myself, I had to open the hood, crouch down to look at the right side of the chassis (driver's side), and sometimes even use my phone flashlight because it's hidden behind the heat shield. The starter motor is responsible for turning the engine to start the vehicle, so it's best to ensure there are no oil stains around before performing maintenance or replacing the battery. If the starting is sluggish or there are abnormal noises, it might be due to worn-out carbon brushes in the motor. Regular inspection and cleaning can extend the car's lifespan. I recommend not attempting DIY repairs and instead seeking professional help, as the location is tricky and requires some skill to disassemble and reassemble.

On my Baojun 730, the starter motor location is quite easy to find. It's positioned beneath the engine, near the crankshaft end, typically appearing as a black or metallic component connected to a bundle of wires. I believe this part serves as the vehicle's ignition switch – without it, the engine simply won't fire up. The placement is designed for heat dissipation and dust protection, though excessive dirt accumulation can affect starting speed. For routine maintenance, you can wipe the connectors with a cloth yourself to prevent corrosion. When experiencing delayed starts, I prioritize checking the battery and fuses before assuming starter failure. Keeping the engine compartment clean helps prevent many issues.

The starter motor is typically mounted next to the engine flywheel. Specifically for the Baojun 730, it's located at the lower front left section of the engine bay. Back when I worked as a mechanic in my younger days, I learned this component tends to accumulate grime. During inspections, shine a flashlight under the chassis - you can spot its position even without tools. When experiencing slow cranking or clicking sounds, don't rush to replace parts immediately; it might just be loose wiring connections. Regular maintenance can significantly extend its service life.

What are the consequences of engine connecting rod deformation?

Deformation of the connecting rod will lead to uneven force distribution during operation. Over time, it may result in fatigue fracture, and in severe cases, damage to the cylinder block, crankshaft, etc. Therefore, it is best to replace it promptly. The following is a related introduction to connecting rods: 1. Introduction: The connecting rod links the piston and the crankshaft, transmitting the force from the piston to the crankshaft and converting the reciprocating motion of the piston into the rotational motion of the crankshaft. 2. Composition: The connecting rod assembly consists of the connecting rod body, connecting rod big end cap, connecting rod small end bushing, connecting rod big end bearing, and connecting rod bolts (or screws). 3. Main failure modes: The primary failure modes of connecting rods are fatigue fracture and excessive deformation.

Can You Make a U-Turn at a Red Light at an Intersection?

You cannot make a U-turn at a red light at an intersection. Below are the relevant regulations regarding vehicle U-turns: 1. No U-turns allowed: Motor vehicles are prohibited from making U-turns at locations with no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crossings, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or sections of road prone to danger. 2. Common knowledge concept: At an intersection with a red left-turn light and a green straight light, you cannot make a left-turn U-turn because when the straight light is green, the opposing lane also has a straight light, and making a U-turn would obstruct the normal flow of opposing straight traffic, hence U-turns are not allowed. When the left-turn light turns green, the opposing lane's straight light usually turns red, making it safer to make a U-turn at that time.

What are the symptoms of water ingress in a dual-clutch transmission?

Symptoms of water ingress in a dual-clutch transmission include: water seeping between the clutch plates, causing them to stick together, resulting in difficulty shifting gears or inability to engage gears while driving, and gear collision noises inside the transmission. Below are specific methods to determine if a car has been water-damaged: 1. Odor: Upon entering the driver's seat, there will be a foul smell of mud. A water-damaged car will always retain some muddy odor no matter how thoroughly it is cleaned. 2. Oxidized copper wires: There will be oxidized copper wires on the wiring and connectors. In severely water-damaged cars, even after treatment, it is difficult to completely remove moisture from the engine wiring and transmission sensor connectors. Over time, the copper wires on these components will react with air and moisture, forming green copper rust.

What does System Too Lean Bank 1 mean?

System Too Lean Bank 1 refers to incomplete combustion in the fuel system. Here are the reasons for System Too Lean Bank 1: 1. Carbon deposits: Caused by insufficient fuel injection, check if there are any issues with fuel pressure, as carbon deposits may be excessive. 2. Air-fuel mixture: The fuel measurement system usually indicates either a too lean or too rich air-fuel mixture. If the mixture is too lean, clean the intake tract carbon deposits and replace the gasoline filter element in time. 3. Fuel injector: If the mixture is too rich, check the intake system for leaks. If there are none, then the issue lies with the fuel injector. You can perform a fuel injector atomization test or clean the fuel injector.

What is the general length of a private car?

The general length of a private car ranges between 3800mm to 4300mm, width between 1600mm to 1800mm, and height between 1400mm to 1600mm. Below are some driving precautions: 1. Yielding: When there are traffic signs and markings, yield to the party with the right of way; in the absence of traffic signs and markings, stop and look before entering an intersection, yielding to vehicles coming from the right; turning vehicles must yield to vehicles going straight; vehicles turning right from the opposite direction must yield to vehicles turning left. 2. Prohibitions: Vehicles are prohibited from reversing at railway crossings, intersections, one-way roads, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, or tunnels. Vehicles may make a U-turn at locations without no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, but must not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians.

What are the symptoms of a bad cylinder head gasket in a car?

The symptoms of a bad cylinder head gasket in a car are: lack of water, lack of engine oil, presence of engine oil in the water, whitening of engine oil due to water ingress, white smoke from the exhaust pipe containing water, blue smoke from the exhaust pipe indicating oil burning, cylinder wall perforation causing engine knocking sounds, noticeable increase in water temperature or even boiling, leakage of air from the engine cylinder head, and reduced cylinder pressure. Methods to diagnose a bad cylinder head gasket: 1. Check if the engine's oil circuit and electrical circuit are normal. If they are functioning properly, it can be determined that the issue is a damaged cylinder head gasket. 2. If adjacent cylinders are not working, use a cylinder pressure gauge to measure the pressure in the non-functioning cylinders. If the pressure in both adjacent cylinders is low and similar, it can be confirmed that the cylinder head gasket is blown or the cylinder head is deformed and damaged.
