The reason why the fan continues to run after the car is turned off: If the engine coolant temperature at the moment of parking is higher than the acceptable soak temperature of the engine, the vehicle's computer will automatically calculate the fan's operating speed and duration, thereby controlling the fan's operation automatically. The higher the engine temperature, the longer the fan runs after parking; when the engine coolant temperature drops below the soak temperature, the fan turns off. This mechanism protects the engine and extends its service life. More information about the car's electric fan is as follows: 1. Working principle: The car's electric fan is controlled by a thermostat. When the water temperature rises to the upper limit, the thermostat connects the power supply, and the fan starts working. When the water temperature drops to the lower limit, the thermostat disconnects the power supply, and the fan stops working. 2. Working requirements: The electric fan motor draws a large current during operation, requiring higher specifications for the wiring used.

How to Repair Scratches on Car Lights?

Because different car headlights are made of different materials, the repair methods vary. Here’s how to repair scratches on headlights based on different materials: 1. Glass material: If the headlight is not broken, there are usually not many scratches left. In this case, simply wiping a few times or using a specific type of sandpaper can smooth out the scratches. However, if the headlight is cracked, it is best to replace it with a new one. 2. Special plastic material: For headlights made of special plastic, you can use dedicated sandpaper or a towel to wipe them. If scratches remain on the surface, it is recommended to replace the headlight directly. 3. High-quality ABS engineering plastic material: Headlights made of this material generally perform better in terms of wear resistance, high-temperature resistance, light penetration, and hardness compared to other headlights. If they are accidentally scratched, you can try using dedicated sandpaper or a grinder to lightly polish the surface, which may quickly restore its original appearance. However, the specific repair method depends on the extent of the damage.
