4 reasons why your car may suddenly catch fire while driving!
When a car suddenly catches fire while driving, many people think that the car is old enough to have a fire. In fact, the car fire is not calculated by the age of the car, which involves a wide range of factors, even if the new car soon after landing, may also be a fire car.
Reason one: modification of the car
Many young people like to modify their own cars, such as modifying the engine and exhaust, replace the phonograph, replace the lights, etc.. In the process of modification there is an increase or change the electrical wiring may increase the chance of “fire car” accident.
If the mechanic does not handle the wires properly or does not protect the wires properly, the positive and negative charges will gather to create sparks and eventually the vehicle will suddenly catch fire.
Cause 2: Old and damaged wires
The age of the car to a time, the car’s wire protection layer will be hardened, and even can not get the role of wire protection. If the wire touches the body, it will generate a spark and cause a fire hazard.
In some unknown factors, such as mice chewed the car’s wire, and the wire touched the body, will also generate an electric charge.
Reason three: battery protection layer damage
If you find the car wire “red” (positive charge) of the protective cover is damaged, please replace it immediately! Because this protective layer is to prevent the positive charge and negative charge touch each other.
Generally, there is a plastic layer on the car cover to prevent the positive charge of the electric box touching the car cover, if the 2 protective layers have been damaged, it is likely to cause sparks, or even cause a greater disaster.
Reason four: the entrance of the new car
Many expensive sports cars are imported cars, and most of them are rebuilt cars. In general, the wire is not fully replaced by the new, so many sports cars have a certain number of years of wire, after entering Malaysia, due to differences in the weather, so that the wire protection layer is more likely to be damaged.
