My car won't start. What could be the issue?
your car won’t start:
Check the battery – A dead or weak battery is a common cause of starting issues. Test the battery with a voltmeter, or try jump-starting the car with jumper cables.
Examine the ignition system – The ignition switch, spark plugs, or starter motor may be faulty, preventing the car from starting.
Check the fuel level – It may sound obvious, but make sure the car has enough fuel in the tank.
Inspect the alternator – If the alternator is not charging the battery, it can lead to starting problems. Have it tested at an auto shop.
Look for error codes – Use an OBD-II scanner to check for any trouble codes in your car’s computer that could indicate a problem with sensors or systems.

Why isn't my air fryer cooking food properly?
If your air fryer isn’t cooking food evenly:
Preheat the air fryer – Some air fryers require preheating before use. Make sure it’s properly heated before placing food inside.
Don’t overcrowd the basket – Air needs to circulate around the food for even cooking. Avoid overcrowding the basket to allow proper airflow.
Check the temperature settings – Ensure that the temperature is set correctly for the type of food you're cooking. Adjust the time and temperature based on the recipe.
Inspect the heating element – A malfunctioning heating element can cause uneven cooking. If the element isn’t working, it may need replacing.
Clean the appliance – If the air fryer hasn’t been cleaned properly, grease and food particles can accumulate, affecting performance. Clean it thoroughly according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
