Tiguan fan control module is located at the R-frame and integrated with the electric fan: The electric fan control module is the control unit that regulates the operation of the electric fan. If the electric fan operates poorly or fails to operate, you can inspect the control module: 1. Visual inspection: Check the coil at the fan motor vent for any signs of burning. If there are burn marks, it indicates that the fan motor coil is burnt and cannot be used anymore. 2. Olfactory inspection: Check if there is any smell of burnt coil, melted plastic, or short-circuited wires. If there is a burnt smell, you can only replace the fan motor, new connecting wires, capacitors, etc. 3. Manual inspection: Rotate the shaft by hand to check its operation. If it rotates with difficulty or is not smooth, it indicates that the internal bearing is lacking oil or the rotor is rubbing. If rubbing occurs, while adding oil and cleaning, you also need to replace the bearings on both sides to eliminate the rubbing phenomenon. Feel the surface temperature with your hand; if the temperature rises too quickly or too high, it indicates a short circuit in the fan motor, and the fan motor needs to be replaced.

The fan control module for the Tiguan is usually installed next to the cooling fan assembly, to be more specific, behind the radiator, adjacent to the fan motor bracket. You'll need to crouch at the front of the car and look carefully, as it's sometimes covered by a dust shield or blocked by other pipelines. Remember to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery before operating. This module controls the switching between high and low speeds of the fan. If it fails, the fan won't function properly, and the engine coolant temperature will rise rapidly, leading to overheating, which is troublesome. Before starting, it's best to check the model year. For older Tiguan models, it's fixed on the radiator frame, while for the third-generation Tiguan L, due to higher integration, its position shifts slightly towards the passenger side. If you're not sure how to proceed, it's better not to force it apart and instead seek help from a repair shop for peace of mind.

Can a car run normally after the engine is flooded and repaired?

After the car engine is flooded and repaired, it can be used normally without any impact on the vehicle. However, this is on the premise that the damaged components due to the flooding have been repaired or replaced, adhering to the principle of repairing what should be repaired and replacing what should be replaced. If the engine is flooded during vehicle use, even if only a small amount of water enters the engine and the vehicle does not stall, you should not continue driving. Water entering the cylinders and mixing with the engine oil degrades the oil quality. Oil containing water increases wear on engine components, leading to louder engine noise and greater vibration during subsequent driving. In severe cases, it may frequently result in oil burning or engine damage. Upon discovering that the engine is flooded, regardless of whether there are any immediate abnormalities, the first step is to turn off the engine, call for rescue, and wait for assistance. It is strictly prohibited to restart the engine or continue driving to avoid unnecessary losses.

What is the plastic shell under the car trunk called?

The plastic shell under the car trunk is called the rear bumper. The car bumper is a safety device that absorbs and mitigates external impacts, protecting the front and rear parts of the vehicle body. More details are as follows: 1. Composition: It consists of three parts: the outer panel, buffer material, and crossbeam. The outer panel and buffer material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping cold-rolled thin plates into a U-shaped groove, with the outer panel and buffer material attached to the crossbeam. 2. Function: The car bumper (anti-collision beam) is located in most areas of the front and rear of the vehicle. It is designed to prevent external damage from affecting the vehicle's safety system and has the ability to reduce injuries to occupants during high-speed collisions. Nowadays, it is increasingly designed for pedestrian protection.

What Causes the Door Handle to Pull but the Door Won't Open?

The reason the door won't open is due to a malfunction in the locking mechanism components. Below are the causes and solutions for the door not opening: 1. Misalignment: Solution: Apply force by bumping the door a few times—either from inside or outside the car using your body—or have someone assist by pulling the door from the outside while another person pushes from inside. 2. Malfunction in the locking mechanism components: Solution: Remove the door panel from inside the car, though this is challenging since the door won't open and may result in broken panel clips. After removing the trim panel, take off the sound insulation layer to gain better access to the locking mechanism. Try pulling the cable manually to see if it moves. If not, use a hammer and chisel or a drill to dismantle the locking mechanism.

Is It Normal for Wheel Brake Discs to Rust?

It is normal for car brake discs to rust. Here is a detailed introduction about it: 1. Slight rust: Slight rust often occurs. For example, after the car is left out in the rain overnight or after washing when the car is not dried properly, slight rust can easily form. In such cases, continuous braking while driving can help remove the rust, as the brake disc rubs against the brake caliper during braking, and the rust will be worn off after multiple brakes. 2. Severe rust: If the brake disc has severe rust, the entire surface of the brake disc will have a relatively thick layer of rust. Stubborn rust can also accelerate the wear of the brake pads, so it is necessary to take the car to a repair shop to have the brake disc polished.

What is the battery model for Lavida?

Lavida batteries come in two models: Fengfan 6QW60 and Bosch L2400. The original car battery has a lifespan of 3 to 4 years, and Volkswagen provides a 2-year warranty for the battery. In addition to regular maintenance at 4S stores, daily battery care is essential. When replacing or installing a Lavida battery, it is important to turn off the ignition switch and all electrical appliances before removing the battery. Lavida is Shanghai Volkswagen's first independently developed A-class car, which not only maintains the excellent quality of German design but also incorporates many aesthetic concepts reflecting traditional Chinese culture and cutting-edge design elements.
