The Mercedes-Benz 260 ignition switch does not respond because the battery is dead, the steering wheel is locked, there is insufficient fuel, or no antifreeze has been added. Reasons for a dead car battery: The car has been parked for a long time, causing the battery to lose power, the battery has reached the end of its lifespan, the engine is damaged, or there is an issue with the electrolyte. Reasons for insufficient car fuel: There is no fuel in the tank or the fuel tank switch is not open, the electric fuel pump is not working properly or has failed, or the fuel pressure regulator is not working properly. There may be blockages, leaks, water accumulation, freezing, or vapor lock in the pipeline from the fuel tank suction pipe through the fuel filter, fuel pump to the fuel distribution pipe inlet pipe joint.

What causes the door to make a buzzing noise during normal driving?

The buzzing noise from the car door during driving is most likely caused by loose door hinges or interior trim panel rattling. If the door hinges are loose, the bumps generated while driving will cause the door to vibrate continuously, resulting in various abnormal noises, especially when driving on uneven roads. Here are some related explanations: 1. Tensioner pulley noise: Tensioner pulley noise is usually caused by excessive wear of the tensioner pulley bearing. When the tensioner pulley malfunctions, the engine may experience timing misalignment and valve timing disorder, significantly affecting the normal operation of the vehicle. Therefore, it is necessary to replace it promptly. If not replaced in time, the engine may experience severe shaking and wear, and may even damage the valves, leading to serious engine component failure. 2. Precautions: Conduct vehicle safety inspections before driving to avoid accidents.

How Many Fog Lights Does a Car Have?

The front fog lights of a car are generally white, with bulb power similar to that of the low beam headlights, and there are usually two front fog lights. The rear fog lights are typically red, with power similar to the front fog lights, but the number varies—some cars have two rear fog lights, while others have only one. More details are as follows: 1. Standards: According to the EU ECE-R38 regulation, if two rear fog lights are installed on the rear of the vehicle, they must be positioned at least 10 cm away from the brake lights. This is likely why many European car manufacturers opt for only one rear fog light, as maintaining a 10 cm gap could significantly compromise the aesthetic appeal of the entire taillight assembly. 2. Principle: Drivers tend to react more to symmetrical lighting, but a single rear fog light is more effective at capturing the attention of drivers behind compared to two. Since rear fog lights are positioned close to the brake lights, having two rear fog lights can easily be confused with brake lights. In foggy conditions, a following driver may struggle to see clearly and, upon approaching, perceive two bright red lights, initially mistaking them for the lead vehicle braking suddenly. This could prompt an abrupt emergency stop, potentially leading to a chain-reaction rear-end collision.

How to Deal with a Car Horn Suddenly Sounding on Its Own?

When the car horn keeps sounding or has already malfunctioned, do not attempt to repair it blindly on your own; seek help from a professional mechanic. During driving, try to avoid prolonged honking as it can easily lead to the burning of the horn contacts over time. When washing the car on rainy days, take measures to prevent the horn from getting excessively wet. If water ingress is discovered, promptly dry it off.
