The most frequently used light on a car is the brake light. When the brake light doesn't come on, the first thing to think of is the brake light bulb, which can be replaced. If the brake light switch is faulty, none of the brake lights will come on. During inspection, you can connect the brake light switch with a wire. If both the bulb and the switch are confirmed to be working properly, check the fuse. At this time, you can check the operation of other electrical equipment on the car and replace the corresponding fuse.

Release the Clutch or Brake First?

In the vast majority of cases, you should press the brake before the clutch. The clutch is the component in the drivetrain that directly connects to the engine and is solely responsible for engaging and disengaging the power and drivetrain. If the car is traveling at high speed and the clutch is pressed before braking, the vacuum level in the vacuum tube decreases, significantly reducing the assist force of the vacuum booster. In this scenario, braking relies solely on the brake pads, which actually increases the braking distance. The correct procedure is: first release the accelerator, putting the car in a coasting state with the gear engaged. Then, press the brake pedal to slow down the car through the combined effect of the braking system and engine braking. When the engine speed approaches idle, depress the clutch to disconnect the engine and prevent stalling.

What to Do When the Exhaust Warning Light Comes On?

Solutions for the exhaust warning light coming on: 1. Start and turn off the vehicle three times in a row, or disconnect the negative terminal of the engine battery, wait for 30 seconds, and then reconnect it; 2. The engine exhaust system warning light often comes on due to damage to the oxygen sensor in the three-way catalytic system or poisoning of the three-way catalytic converter caused by poor fuel quality. If the light comes on while driving, immediately reduce speed and drive to the nearest service station for inspection; 3. If the vehicle cannot start after the warning light comes on, call for a tow truck. If the vehicle can still be driven but experiences severe shaking, lack of acceleration power, or other symptoms, it is recommended to stop driving. This not only prevents further damage to the engine but also ensures personal safety.

What is the reason for the BMW X6's air conditioner blowing half warm and half cold air?

BMW X6 air conditioner blowing cold on one side and warm on the other may be caused by the following reasons: 1. Uneven temperature settings: Dual-zone air conditioning requires adjusting temperatures for both driver and passenger sides. If one side is set lower, it may result in uneven cooling/heating. 2. Incorrect adjustment of temperature control knob: For example, wanting warm air but the knob isn't turned to red, or wanting cool air but the knob isn't turned to blue. 3. Refrigerant level issues: Either insufficient refrigerant or excessive refrigerant. 4. Clogged heater valve: Automatic zone air conditioning uses two pipes to the heater core - if one is blocked while the other isn't, it will cause different temperatures on each side, resulting in different air outlet temperatures.

Do I need to shift to first gear when pulling over for the parking test in Subject 3?

No, you can stop in whichever gear you're currently in. The method for pulling over is as follows: 1. Find the right spot: Identify a suitable parking spot ahead on the right side while checking the rearview mirror to assess if parking conditions are favorable. If there are other test vehicles ahead, wait until they've left before gradually pulling over. 2. Activate the turn signal: When preparing to pull over, if you hear the instruction sound, you must turn on the right turn signal and keep it on for at least 3 seconds before turning it off. Of course, rushing the instruction or turning off the signal too quickly would be completely wrong - remember this.
