1. Paint protection
The acidic components in rainwater have a strong corrosive effect on the car's paint surface, which will cause damage to the car's paint surface over time. Therefore, in seasons with more rain, it is best to perform a paint repair on your car. The easiest way is to wax.
2. Chassis care
The chassis is the part closest to the ground and is particularly affected by road conditions. Generally, this part is most susceptible to rust, and the wheel shell may even become loose and perforated. Therefore, we must pay attention to the cleaning and anti-rust treatment of the car chassis. Once the chassis is rust-proofed, the anti-rust effect can last for 3 months.
3. Ignition start
On rainy days, car owners often encounter the problem that the engine is difficult to start. Sometimes even if it is forced to start, it is weak. The most likely cause of this problem is leakage caused by moisture in the ignition system. In addition, it may be that when it rains and the weather becomes cooler, the hot air sealed in the distribution board may condense into water droplets, causing small flooding inside the distribution board, thus losing the normal ignition function.
4. Wiper maintenance
The increase in rain will inevitably make the wipers take on more work, because the road surface and line of sight on rainy days are not conducive to driving. If the wipers cannot wipe off the rain well, it will bring great danger to your driving safety. At this time, the wipers play a role It plays a very important role, so its inspection and maintenance should be more careful.
5. Turn on the air conditioner frequently
In terms of indoor moisture-proofing, turning on the air conditioner is the best way. Even if the weather is cold, as long as the temperature is set, turning on the air conditioner together will not reduce the effect of heating, but can increase the dehumidification function. Once the weather clears up, park your car in the sun and open the four-door windows to let the indoor air circulate. The heated car body will quickly eliminate the accumulated moisture inside.
6. Keep the speakers away from moisture
When the rainy season comes and the humidity increases, there will often be a layer of fog on the surface of the CD record, which will make it difficult to read the disc. It is best to scrub it every once in a while. To avoid moisture when installing the CD drive, do not install it under the floor or seat. It is best to install it high on the car body, but do not install it on the rear windshield. Excessive temperature will accelerate the aging of electronic components and laser heads.
7. Check the circuit
For example, check the battery to see if the power is sufficient, etc. On rainy days, car owners sometimes encounter the problem that the engine is difficult to start. Sometimes even if it is forced to start, it is weak. The most likely cause of this problem is leakage in the ignition system due to moisture.
The most important thing is to check the high-voltage wire. Once it is found that the moisture in the ignition system causes poor ignition and engine performance decline, you can temporarily use dry paper towels or dry cloth to dry the inside and outside of the distribution board and wires. If it is aging and leaking, be sure to Replace in time.
8. Brake water removal
When there is a lot of rain and high air humidity, car brake fluid can easily absorb moisture. In some vehicles where the brake fluid absorbs water seriously, water droplets can be seen on the brake fluid cup cover. Because the brake fluid of most cars is extremely water-absorbent. If water enters the brake fluid, the high temperature generated by friction will vaporize the water during braking. The gas is compressible, and when it is compressed in the brake fluid, it will cause brake failure or even failure. Once it is found that the car brake fluid absorbs water seriously, it should be sent to a professional repair shop to remove the water.
