Electronic parking brakes act on the rear wheels. Here is more information about electronic parking brakes: 1. The electronic parking brake is a technology that achieves parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake, both of which use the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control parking braking. The only difference is that the control method has changed from the previous mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button. 2. The electronic parking brake has evolved from the basic parking function to an automatic parking function. The application of the automatic parking function technology allows drivers to avoid prolonged braking when the vehicle is stopped. When the automatic electronic parking brake is activated, it can prevent unnecessary vehicle sliding.

What is the reason for the Emgrand steering lock authentication failure?

Emgrand steering lock authentication failure causes and solutions are as follows: Steering wheel locking system malfunction: The Emgrand steering wheel locking system unlock failure may be due to a malfunction in the car's steering wheel locking system. If the car's steering wheel locking system malfunctions, it may cause the steering wheel locking system to fail to unlock. In this case, the car's steering wheel locking system needs to be rematched to resolve the unlock failure issue. For manual transmission vehicles, this setting is for anti-theft purposes. Generally, turning the key while simultaneously turning the steering wheel will automatically unlock the steering wheel. Precautions for locking the steering wheel: Steering wheel lock often occurs with novice car owners. After parking and turning off the engine, they may find the steering wheel not aligned and habitually try to adjust it by hand, which immediately triggers the anti-theft function. Therefore, after turning off the engine, try not to touch the steering wheel. If alignment is necessary, start the engine to operate it.

What brand is the Roewe 550 engine?

The Roewe car engine was jointly developed by SAIC Group and General Motors. It belongs to the independent brand. The engine model of the Roewe 550 is 18k4c, equipped with a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum horsepower of 133ps, a maximum power of 98kw, and a maximum torque of 170nm. The 3.2L engine has a maximum power of 162kw/6000rpm and a maximum torque of 310Nm/4600rpm. For daily maintenance of the Roewe 550 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil volume moderate. When the oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and sticky substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and the oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing the oil to pass through the bypass valve and bringing dirt back to the lubrication parts, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acid, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides in the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from part wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it suspends in the oil; when the amount is large, it precipitates from the oil, blocking the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

What does the EPC indicator light on a Skoda dashboard mean?

The EPC indicator light can illuminate in two scenarios: during the power-on self-test and under other conditions. The power-on self-test is an indication that the vehicle is checking the status of all sensors before driving. Generally, if the engine is not started after powering on, the light will turn off by itself after about 3 seconds. If the EPC light remains on after starting the vehicle or illuminates under other conditions, the possible causes include faults in the engine intake system, throttle, fuel system, engine, ECU control unit, or brake lights. Below is a detailed explanation of the reasons for the EPC light illuminating under other conditions: Engine intake system fault: The EPC light will activate if the engine intake is obstructed or insufficient. Throttle fault: Carbon buildup is a common issue with the throttle. Additionally, dirt on the throttle body can affect intake, triggering the indicator light. Fuel system fault: Issues such as substandard fuel, degraded fuel, or poor fuel atomization can cause the light to illuminate. Engine fault: Insufficient engine pressure or problems with components like the intake valve can also trigger the EPC light. ECU control unit fault: Interference with the vehicle's computer signals or false alarms from the computer may lead to illumination. Brake light fault: Malfunctions such as non-functional brake lights, faulty brake switches, or brake circuit issues can cause the light to turn on. Solutions for an illuminated EPC indicator light: Troubleshoot the intake system, use fuel with the appropriate octane rating, and clean the throttle. Remove carbon deposits from relevant components. Re-flash the ECU with updated data. If the EPC light illuminates, the driver can first try turning off the engine and restarting it to see if the light remains on. If it turns off, the issue may have been a temporary glitch. If the light stays on or frequently illuminates, the vehicle should be taken to the nearest repair facility for professional diagnosis and timely resolution of potential safety hazards. The full name of EPC is Electronic-Power-Control, which translates to electronic power control. Most people refer to it as the engine electronic stability system. The EPC system primarily includes controllers and sensors related to the powertrain. When sensor data deviates from normal values, the EPC system takes predefined actions to manage the powertrain. Common EPC indicator lights come in two colors: yellow and red. A yellow EPC fault light indicates that the vehicle can still be driven, but it should proceed cautiously to a repair facility. A red EPC fault light signifies a more serious issue, requiring immediate parking and contacting a professional for repairs. Continuing to drive under such conditions may severely damage core components or compromise safety.

Why does the engine malfunction indicator light come on?

If the engine malfunction indicator light comes on in your vehicle, it indicates that the engine's air-fuel mixture is not at the ideal ratio. The simplest method is to use a specialized diagnostic tool to read the fault codes in the engine system, and then perform troubleshooting based on the stored fault information. Common causes of this phenomenon include: Carbon buildup issues: Spark plugs that have not been replaced for a long time may have excessive gap, carbon buildup, or internal damage. Damage issues: One of the ignition coils in a cylinder may be damaged, causing that cylinder to malfunction.
