Information Sheet 1.2-2
Daily Routine BLOWBAGETS Check-up on Vehicle System
Learning Objectives: After reading this information sheet, you must be able
to:
1. identify different minor routine checks in a vehicle system.
In order to avoid vehicular accidents, damages to properties and
unnecessary loss of life, it is advisable the one has knowledge on how to
check the various important parts of a vehicle needed for its proper
functioning.
In this lesson, you would be introduced to minor routine checks,
which includes battery, lights, oil engine, water radiator, brake, air tire,
gas/diesel, engine, time and self-check-ups (BLOWBAGETS) in a vehicle
system.
Under the Hood Vehicle Checks
Battery
Check-up Battery voltage should be
check before starting the
engine; helps to crank the
engine, helps light the vehicle
lightning system and other
entertainment accessories like
TV and audio system.
Battery fluid check-up. It

helps to maintain the cycle and
produce voltage. Battery life
span can reach up to 3-4 years.
Battery connection check-up.

Loose connection can cause the
current flow of voltage
decrease, and can also lead to
full engine starting. Make sure
the cables are connected to the
positive and negative terminal.

DRIVING NC II

Revision # 00
Lights Check busted bulb – should be
Check-up replace to avoid accident when
turning and using signal light
and also driving at night.
Check cut wires – short circuit

can cause fire accident and
damage the lighting system of
the vehicle.
Check blown fuse – blown fuse

can cut the current flow of the
voltage to all of the accessories
of the vehicle.
Check defective relays –

defective relays can also lead to
lightning failure; this is the
secondary switch of all
accessories.
Check defective switch –

defective switch can cause the
lighting system not to run
properly make sure that all
switches are good in good
condition.
Oil Engine Check oil dipstick. This is the

Check-up part where you check the level
of the engine oil weather it’s in
maximum level or low level.

DRIVING NC II

Revision # 00
Check oil viscosity.
Viscosity is the thickness of
the oil. It’s important to
check the right viscosity. It
helps lubricate the metal
inside and to control the
temperature of the engine
when it’s running.
Check oil texture. If the oil

texture fells sandy or feels
like watery, it needs to be
replaced.
Check oil color. Oil engine

color can help you to
determine whether you need
to change your engine oil or
its still okay to run your
engine. Normally every 5,000
kilometers is the best way to
change your engine oil.
Water Add water in the radiator to
Radiator help the engine cool down and
Check-up to avoid engine from
overheating.
Add coolant. Coolant helps

instant cooling down, prevents
the engine from overheating,
and also protects the radiator
from rusting inside.

DRIVING NC II

Revision # 00
Brake Check brake fluid level. It’s very
Check-up important to check brake fluid to make
sure vehicle stops when emergency
stopping is needed.
Check clutch fluid. Clutch fluid

reservoir can normally see at the side of
the brake fluid reservoir. It helps the
transmission to change gear properly
when depress.
Check brake
pads and
lining. Pads
and lining
help the
vehicle
decrease
movement
when depress
the brake pedal. It’s important to check the thickness of the
pads and lining.
Air Tire Check tire air pressure. Normal pressure
Check-up of light vehicle is 35-38 psi.
Check tire
thickness. When tire
thickness is too low,
it can cause tire
blown up. It’s
important to replace
tire when it’s already
bald.

DRIVING NC II

Revision # 00
Gas/Diesel Check gas/diesel level.
Check-up Make sure the gas tank
level is full when having a
long drive trip, to avoid
engine stopping at the
middle of the road. You
can check the gas level at the dashboard in front of the
steering wheel.
Engine Check oil leak. Oil leak decrease the
Check-up level of the engine oil. It can cause
engine overheating.
Check unusual engine noise.

Unusual engine noise means the
engine is not running in good
condition.
Check loose volts and nuts. Loose

volts and nuts can lead to serious
damage to the engine and cause
accident. Before travelling make sure
that all nuts and volts are tighten.
Time Give enough time to check vehicle

Check-up (1 week process to complete the whole
maintenance check-up).
Self- Make sure that the driver is in proper

Check-up physical condition to travel. Get enough
sleep, eat well, take vitamins and do
exercise.

TASK SHEET 1.1-2
Title: Check Engine Oil
Performance Objective: Given the necessary supplies, materials, tools

and equipment, you should be able to check the
engine oil of the vehicle unit following industry
standards.
Supplies/Materials : lint-free rag
Equipment : dipstick, light vehicle
Steps/Procedure:
1. Pull out the dip stick and wipe it off on a clean, lint-free rag.
Be sure the engine is cold (or has been off for at least ten
minutes) before you check the oil.
2. Insert the stick back into the pipe.
If the dipstick gets stuck on the way in, turn it around. The
pipe it fits into is curved, and the metal stick bends naturally in
the direction of the curve if you put it back in the way it came
out.
3. Pull the dipstick out again and look at the film of oil on the end of
the stick.
Note how high the oil film reaches on the dipstick and the
condition of the oil, and add or change the oil as needed.
4. Put the dipstick back into the pipe.
5. Replace used materials and dispose of waste materials in
accordance with existing laws or ordinances.
