The reason the alarm light keeps flashing is that the vehicle's anti-theft system has been activated and is in working status. Details about the alarm light operation: If the engine immobilizer light flashes at a frequency of once every 1 to 2 seconds, this is a normal phenomenon. It indicates that the vehicle's engine has entered anti-theft mode and the engine immobilizer is functioning properly. This is normal operation and does not require the owner to deactivate it. Methods to deactivate the anti-theft system: If the battery is dead, the vehicle's anti-theft system will lock the vehicle, making it impossible to deactivate via remote control, open doors or start the engine. You'll need to use the mechanical key to unlock and either jump-start or replace the battery.

How many kilometers should a car run before changing the brake fluid?

The replacement cycle for brake fluid is 2 years or 40,000 kilometers, but it is still necessary to refer to the cycle specified in the user manual. Below is relevant information about brake fluid: 1. The function of brake fluid is to transmit the braking pressure to the brake pistons of the four wheels and push the pistons to press the brake pads and brake discs, thereby achieving the braking effect. 2. Brake fluid also has strong water absorption properties, gradually absorbing moisture from the surrounding air and slowly deteriorating. When brake fluid that has absorbed moisture is subjected to pressure, the moisture vaporizes and produces bubbles, causing the brake to feel spongy, severely affecting braking performance while also corroding the brake lines. 3. As the brake pads wear and the piston calipers reposition, the brake fluid level will gradually decrease. When the fluid level falls below the minimum mark, the brake system warning light on the dashboard will illuminate. At this point, simply topping up the brake fluid to the sufficient level is required.

How to Disable the Auto Start-Stop Function in a Car?

Methods to disable the auto start-stop function in a car: You can directly press the auto start-stop button, which is usually a circular arrow with the letter A inside. The dashboard will indicate that the system is turned off. If you want to use this function again, simply press the button to turn it back on. The engine auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop during driving and restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. The working principle of the start-stop system is that when the vehicle stops due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, the driver presses the brake pedal and shifts to neutral. The auto system detects that there is enough energy for the next start, and the engine automatically stops. When the traffic light turns green, the driver presses the clutch, and the start-stop device can be activated immediately to quickly restart the engine.
