Maintenance and Self - service
4. Determine the cause of the blown fuse and correct the problem.
5. Replace fuse.
Battery
Self - discharge of Battery
The storage battery will self - discharge. Even if it is in an open circuit state, its capacity will significantly decrease after more than 2 months. The self - discharge of battery is affected by factors such as temperature and storage conditions.
• The higher the temperature, the higher the self - discharge rate.
• High humidity and dust in the storage place will accelerate the self - discharge of battery.
Methods to Reduce Battery Self - discharge
• The positive and negative connections of the battery should not be loose.
• Keep battery surface clean.
• When it is not in use for a long time, remove the battery and place it in a dry environment with moderate temperature. • When the high voltage is not engaged, try not to use the electrical appliances in the vehicle for a long time.
Battery power loss
Battery power loss is mainly due to:
• Power consumption of non - stop electrical appliances, such as immobilizer alarms.
• Leakage caused by poor insulation performance of components on the vehicle.
• If the negative terminal is not unplugged, the static current and leakage current in the circuit will cause power loss.
• Turn on the vehicle's electrical appliances without engaging high voltage.
Battery Level Check
Use the head lamps as a load and check with a voltmeter: Connect the voltmeter to the battery, read the voltage value, and then turn on the head lamps. If the battery voltage remains above 11.5 volts and does not drop rapidly, it can be used normally after idle charging. If the battery voltage rapidly drops after turning on the head lamps, it is necessary to charge the battery separately.
Steps for Replacing the Battery
When removing the battery, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery first and then the positive terminal.
