FRONT button is for front windshield defogging. In winter, due to the large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the car, fog is prone to form on the windshield, obstructing the view. If you manually wipe off the fog while driving, it can easily distract you and affect driving safety. Turning on this function can conveniently and quickly remove the fog. The principle of the car defogging button: Physical principle of cold air: After the liquid refrigerant absorbs the heat of the cooled object in the evaporator, it vaporizes into low-temperature and low-pressure steam, which is sucked in by the compressor and compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure steam, then discharged into the condenser. In the condenser, it releases heat to the cooling medium (water or air) and condenses into high-pressure liquid, which is then throttled by the throttle valve into low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant, and then enters the evaporation device again to absorb heat and vaporize, achieving the purpose of cyclic refrigeration. In this way, the refrigerant completes the refrigeration cycle in the system through four basic processes: compression, condensation, throttling, and evaporation. Physical principle of hot air defogging: When gas containing fog flows through the defogger at a certain speed, due to the inertia of the gas, the liquid droplets accumulated due to the collision of fog with the wave plate are large, and the gravity generated by the droplets exceeds the combined force of gas lift and liquid surface tension, causing the droplets to separate from the surface of the wave plate. Methods to prevent window fogging: Preventive methods such as spraying anti-fog agents: Spray a little defogging agent on the window and then wipe it clean to remove dirt and spots on the glass. When polishing the glass, a thin transparent protective film is formed on the glass, which can effectively prevent water vapor from condensing on the glass and forming a fog layer, especially suitable for cold winters. Air conditioning refrigeration method: Use the air conditioning dehumidification function to reduce air humidity and remove fog. Turn on the air conditioning to blow cold air forward, use the air conditioning dehumidification function, and you can remove the fog vapor on the front windshield. However, if the humidity is too high, the effect of the air conditioning is not obvious, and you can slightly open a small window to quickly reduce the humidity in the cab. Air conditioning heating method: Use the method of reducing the temperature difference to eliminate fog. In winter, use warm air to blow hot air onto the glass to quickly increase the temperature of the front glass and reduce the difference between the inside and outside surfaces of the window, which can prevent the fog vapor on the front windshield in time. However, the back and side temperatures of the glass rise slowly, so it takes a long time to eliminate all the fog.

What are the headlights on a car?

There are many types of car headlights, mainly including halogen lamps, xenon headlights, and LED car lights. Halogen lamps emit yellowish light with strong penetration, suitable for use in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather; xenon lamps are bright, energy-efficient, and have a long lifespan; LED lights generate significant heat. Below is some relevant information: 1. Although cars have many types of lights, the most common ones are halogen lamps, xenon headlights, and LED car lights. However, the most widely used type in modern cars is LED car lights. LED car lights have the disadvantage of generating significant heat, but they also offer advantages such as high brightness, low temperature, stable performance, almost no light decay, and no delay. 2. Car headlights generally refer to the front lighting lamps and LED daytime running lights. Headlights include high and low beams, as well as turn signals. Among these, high beams are the brightest at night, providing the widest field of vision. However, when there are oncoming vehicles or pedestrians, it is important to switch from high beams to low beams.

Does installing an electric tailgate affect the car?

Modifying an electric tailgate can easily damage the car's computer, circuits, and body, potentially leading to short circuits, fires, or water leakage due to poor sealing of the electric tailgate. Additionally, modifying an electric tailgate falls under the category of vehicle modifications, and whether it is legal depends on approval from the vehicle management office. Many unauthorized modifications of electric tailgates are illegal and will certainly fail the annual inspection. Additional information is as follows: 1. Electric tailgate: Since installing an electric tailgate is considered a modification, the key consideration is whether it will affect the original vehicle system. Qualified products should avoid altering the car's computer, circuits, or body during installation to prevent short circuits caused by modifications. 2. Electric tailgate products: Most are divided into single-arm and dual-arm types, with the controller and electric push rod playing crucial roles in the electric tailgate. Comparatively, dual-arm electric tailgates are more reliable because the left and right support rods are synchronized, ensuring even force distribution on the tailgate and better support strength, naturally preventing future door deformation issues. Thus, it avoids deformation from long-term use or collisions.

Does a car inspected in 2020 need inspection again in 2021?

If the vehicle was inspected in 2020 but before the new inspection regulations were issued, it still needs to undergo inspection before the validity period of the 2020 inspection expires in 2021. Below is relevant information about vehicle inspection: 1. Conditions: Vehicles whose condition does not match the records in the driving license or archives; vehicles with damaged, incomplete, or illegible license plates or driving licenses, or those with self-made license plates. 2. Notes: Vehicle exterior: The color of sunshade or explosion-proof film on windows cannot be too dark. Vans and trucks must have enlarged rear license plate numbers, and the number of spring leaf plates cannot be increased or decreased. The number of seats in vans cannot be altered, and a fire extinguisher must be present. Box trucks cannot have modified compartments (no side doors, no roof openings, no added tailboards). Tire size cannot be altered, and tread patterns on the same axle must be consistent. Vehicles with unresolved traffic violations or those impounded by the court cannot undergo inspection.

How to Determine the Material of a Spark Plug?

Distinguishing the material of a spark plug is done by examining the central core of the electrode. The specific method is as follows: a thicker core indicates a standard type; a thinner, white-colored core indicates platinum; and a thinner, yellow-colored core indicates iridium. What are the types of spark plugs: The main types of spark plugs include: standard spark plugs, projected insulator spark plugs, electrode spark plugs, seat spark plugs, pole spark plugs, and surface gap spark plugs. How does a spark plug work: Working principle of a spark plug: The ground electrode of the spark plug is connected to the metal shell, which is threaded into the engine block via the cylinder head. The insulator primarily serves to isolate the metal shell from the central electrode. The terminal nut is the part of the spark plug that contacts the high-voltage coil. When current passes through the terminal nut and the central electrode, it ionizes the medium between the central electrode and the ground electrode, generating a spark that ignites the air-fuel mixture in the cylinder.
