Why Do New Energy Vehicles Catch Fire Spontaneously?

New energy vehicles catch fire spontaneously for the following reasons: Circuit Aging: Whether it's a new energy vehicle or a fuel-powered car, the internal electronic components and wiring can wear out due to the harsh environment inside the vehicle. Wires located near the engine, exposed to high temperatures for prolonged periods, are particularly prone to damage and electrical leakage. If subjected to external high temperatures, this can easily lead to spontaneous combustion. It is recommended that owners park their vehicles in indoor parking lots during hot weather to avoid direct exposure to high temperatures. Additionally, regular inspections of electronic components and wiring should be conducted, and any damage or inadequate protection should be promptly repaired to prevent more serious accidents. Fuel Line Aging: Over time, the fuel lines in a vehicle naturally wear out. Compared to circuit aging mentioned above, aging fuel lines are even more dangerous. It is well known that when the engine is operating, the surrounding temperature can reach several hundred degrees. If aging fuel lines are not detected in time, oil seepage or even leakage can occur, significantly increasing the risk of spontaneous combustion.

What are the symptoms of a damaged car alternator?

Automobile alternator damage symptoms include dimming of car lights or dashboard lights; damage to the battery or accumulator. The following are specific details about car alternators: 1. Working principle: When the external circuit energizes the excitation winding through the brushes, a magnetic field is generated, and the electrodes are magnetized into N and S poles. 2. Maintenance: It is necessary to frequently clean the accumulated dirt and dust on the alternator's surface to maintain cleanliness and good ventilation. Regularly check the tightness of all fasteners related to the alternator and promptly tighten all screws. 3. Function: The car alternator is the main power source of the vehicle, whose role is to supply power to all electrical equipment except the starter when the engine is running normally, while also charging the battery.

What to Do If Driving Test Payment Fails?

If the payment for Subject 1 fails, it may be because the exam fee is already included in the registration fee, and attempting to pay again will result in failure. In this case, there is no need to worry. It could also be due to system lag. You can wait patiently and try again after the system buffers. If the lag persists, you can click the reset button to exit and then try again. Applicants can also bring their ID card and exam records to the local vehicle management office to pay the re-examination fee and exam venue fee in person.
