What problems should I pay attention to when using electric vehicles in rainy days?

The motor, controller, battery and other important parts of electric vehicles are generally waterproof. Under normal circumstances, it doesn't matter even if it gets wet by rain, but this doesn't mean that electric vehicles can walk in the water at will. Don't rush into a place with serious water accumulation, or try to make a detour. If you must cross, try to choose some shallow roads, and the water depth should not exceed half of the wheel, because the motor of electric vehicles is generally located in the center of the rear wheel. Once the motor is wet or flooded, it is very likely that a series of problems such as horn failure, brake failure and controller failure will not work normally.

Second, dry in time after rain.

It is rainy in summer. When the electric car is stored in the open air, it is best to take out the battery and put it indoors. Do not put the battery into the power supply after the electric vehicle is wet, which may lead to short circuit. After the heavy rain, you can put the electric car in a ventilated place to dry. Before energizing the battery, wipe the battery and connecting socket with a rag or paper towel to avoid power connection.

Third, the chain coup rusted.

If the electric car chain rusts after the rain, it can be wiped off with the cleaning agent for cleaning the kitchen first, and then washed with diesel oil, so that the rust can be easily removed. In addition, you can buy some castor seeds, peel off the shell, wrap them with fine flannel and mash them to clean the electric car, which can make the rims and spokes smooth and play a certain role in rust prevention.

Fourth, slow down and avoid sudden braking.

During driving, the speed should not be too fast. Be gentle when braking, and judge the road conditions as soon as possible. Avoid sudden braking, so as to avoid accidental injury caused by uncontrolled wheel slipping.

Five, after the battery is wet, don't rush to charge.

If the battery is accidentally wet by rain, don't charge it in a hurry. Wait until it dries before charging.

Sixth, it is best to wear a "raincoat" for electric vehicles.

When parking electric vehicles in rainy days, it is best to cover them with plastic sheets to protect the controller of electric vehicles from getting wet by rain.

Seven, if the water involved in the car controller, should be timely maintenance.

After wading, if there is not much water in the controller, it can be put in a ventilated place to dry before use. If there is a lot of water in the controller, it should be repaired at the relevant maintenance station in time to prevent short circuit of power supply and burn out the transmission and motor.

Eight, more importantly, safety.

The road conditions are not good in rainy days. When riding an electric car, you should control the speed, go slowly, ensure safety, and don't brake suddenly, otherwise it will easily slip and cause traffic accidents. Because rain will blur the rearview mirror, turn on the turn signal before changing lanes. In short, riding an electric car in rainy days should ensure the safety of life and property of yourself and others.
