BYD Tang tail light is always on for the following reasons: 1. Brake light switch damage: Damage to the brake light switch can cause the rear tail light to stay on. Replacing the brake light switch can solve the problem. 2. Tail light circuit issues: If there is a problem with the tail light circuit, it should be repaired at a 4S shop as soon as possible. Introduction to car tail lights: Car tail lights include the lamps and bulbs at the rear of the car. One of the functions of the lamps is to gather and emit the light from the bulbs, thereby enhancing the brightness and range of the light emitted by the bulbs. The second function is to change the color of the bulb's light through the color of the lamps. Overall, the design of the entire car tail light involves disciplines such as optics, materials science, and structural science. How to maximize light efficiency while considering different shapes and lines, and perfectly integrating with the car, all test the designer's ability.

I also encountered the issue of the taillights staying on with my BYD Tang, which was quite annoying. It could be that the light switch is stuck and not turned off, or the foot brake was pressed down but didn't spring back, causing the brake lights to stay on. A short circuit is another possible reason, especially if water gets in during rainy days or the chassis wiring harness is worn, causing erratic current flow. Once, after installing modified light strips, they interfered with the original system, and it took several restarts to get back to normal. I suggest you first check the light settings menu to see if the night mode was accidentally turned on, then try resetting the switch. Keeping the lights on constantly drains the battery—it can deplete it overnight, making it troublesome to even jump-start. It's best to have someone help you observe the car while you operate it to confirm the issue. If you can't figure it out, take it to a professional shop sooner rather than later to avoid bigger problems down the line.

What is the typical height of a sedan?

The height of a sedan typically ranges between 1400mm and 1600mm. The height of a sedan is defined as the distance between the vehicle's supporting plane and the horizontal plane that touches the highest protruding part of the vehicle. Standards for measuring vehicle height: If the vehicle has a roof rack, the vehicle height includes the height of the roof rack but excludes the antenna height. The measurement should be taken when the tires are at standard pressure, and the vehicle is unloaded but operational. Vehicles equipped with adjustable suspensions, such as air suspension, can alter their height by adjusting the suspension settings. Impact of vehicle height on handling: Vehicle height primarily affects the vehicle's center of gravity and interior space. A higher vehicle height raises the center of gravity, increasing the risk of rollover during high-speed cornering. Conversely, a lower vehicle height can compromise ground clearance and ride comfort. Other common vehicle dimension parameters: In addition to vehicle height, other common dimension parameters include vehicle length, vehicle width, and wheelbase. Vehicle length refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the outermost protruding points at the front and rear of the vehicle. Vehicle width refers to the distance between two parallel planes aligned with the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the fixed protruding parts on both sides (excluding mirrors, marker lights, position lights, turn signals, flexible mudguards, folding steps, anti-skid chains, and the part of the tire in contact with the ground). Wheelbase refers to the distance between two vertical lines passing through the centers of adjacent wheels on the same side of the vehicle and perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane.

Does a Sunshade Mat Affect Airbags?

It depends on the location. There is no impact on the driver's side because the driver's airbag is generally positioned at the center of the steering wheel, and the sunshade mat does not interfere with the airbag deployment. However, the passenger-side airbag is usually located above the glove compartment, which is precisely where the sunshade mat covers. In the event of a collision, this can hinder the deployment of the passenger-side airbag, posing a significant safety hazard. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid covering the passenger-side position. Additional information: The airbag system is a passive safety protection system that, when used in conjunction with seat belts, provides effective collision protection for occupants. During a car collision, airbags can reduce head injuries by 25% and facial injuries by approximately 80%.

What are the possible causes for a forklift boom descending?

There are two main causes for a forklift boom descending: one is internal leakage in the boom cylinder (cylinder seal failure), where fluid leaks from the large chamber to the small chamber; the other is internal leakage in the working multi-way valve. Additional information: Overview: A loader is a earthmoving machine widely used in construction projects such as highways, railways, buildings, hydropower, ports, and mines. It is mainly used for shoveling and loading loose materials like soil, sand, gravel, lime, and coal, and can also perform light digging operations on ores and hard soil. It features fast operation, high efficiency, good mobility, and easy operation.

What is the speed limit for urban three-lane roads?

Here is information about the speed limits for urban three-lane roads: 1. Urban expressways: The left lane has a maximum speed limit of 120-110 km/h, the middle lane: 110-90 km/h, and the right lane: 90-60 km/h. When there are specific speed limits, follow the relevant expressway speed limits. 2. Ordinary urban roads: The speed limit for each lane should not exceed 70 km/h. Below is an introduction to different types of roads: 1. Expressways: Roads constructed to handle large volumes of urban traffic smoothly. They should have smooth alignments, be separated from ordinary roads, and ensure safe, smooth, and comfortable automobile traffic. 2. Arterial roads: Major traffic routes connecting the main parts of a city, forming the backbone of urban roads. Their primary function is transportation. Traffic on arterial roads should maintain a certain speed, so lanes of appropriate width should be set up based on traffic volume to allow smooth vehicle movement. The alignment should be straightforward, and intersections should be minimized to reduce interference from vehicles entering or exiting intersecting roads. Traffic control measures should be implemented at intersections. If traffic exceeds the capacity of an intersection, grade separation can be adopted as planned. 3. Secondary roads: Major roads within a district, serving both general traffic and other functions, complementing arterial roads to form a road network that connects various parts of the city and facilitates traffic distribution. Generally, fast and slow vehicles share these roads. If conditions permit, separate bicycle lanes can be provided. Sidewalks should be installed on both sides, and public buildings that attract pedestrian traffic can be set up.

Are anti-rear-end flashing lights allowed by traffic police?

Not allowed. Installing anti-rear-end flashing lights is considered illegal modification. If caught by traffic police, they will be forcibly removed and a fine will be imposed. The following are the relevant regulations: "Technical Specifications for Safety of Power-driven Vehicles Operating on Roads": The lamps of motor vehicles shall be installed firmly, intact and effective, and shall not loosen, damage, lose function or change the direction of illumination due to vehicle vibration; all lamp switches shall be installed firmly and operate freely, and shall not switch on or off automatically due to vehicle vibration. The position of the switch shall be convenient for the driver to operate. Except for turn signals, hazard warning signals, and marking lamps installed and used by fire trucks, ambulances, engineering rescue vehicles and police cars, other external lamps are not allowed to flash. "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Illegal installation of alarms or marking lamps shall be forcibly removed and confiscated by the traffic management department of the public security organ, and a fine shall be imposed.

What is the reason for the reverse light not working and the reverse camera not displaying?

Reverse light not working and reverse camera not displaying is due to a damaged reverse light fuse. Below are specific details about reverse lights: 1. Function: Reverse lights are installed at the rear of the vehicle to illuminate the road behind when reversing and to alert vehicles and pedestrians behind. 2. Installation guidelines: Vehicles shorter than 6 meters are required to have one reverse light installed, with an optional second one. Typically, the left side has a fog light and the right side has a reverse light. This is because the driver's seat is on the left, making it easier to observe vehicles ahead with the fog light on the left. The reverse light on the right facilitates easier parking on the right side of the road at night.
