Working principle of hood lock?
A typical engine anti theft locking system works like this: an electronic chip is installed in the vehicle ignition key, and each chip is equipped with a fixed ID (equivalent to the ID number). The vehicle can be started only when the ID of the key chip is consistent with the ID on the side of the engine. On the contrary, if it is inconsistent, the car will automatically cut off the circuit immediately, making the engine unable to start.
The engine immobilizer system allows the engine to be started only with a key approved by the system. If someone tries to start the engine with a key that is not approved by the system, the engine will not start, which helps to prevent your car from being stolen.
The hood latch is designed for safety reasons. Even if you accidentally touch the engine compartment opening button during driving, the hood will not pop up to block your view.
The hood latch of most vehicles is located directly in front of the engine compartment, so it is easy to find it after one experience, but be careful to be scalded when the engine compartment temperature is high.
