How to Avoid Mistaking the Accelerator for the Brake?
1 Answers
Avoiding mistaking the accelerator for the brake can be achieved through the following methods: 1. Follow the 'single-pedal' driving logic. 2. Develop good driving habits. 3. The same principle applies when reversing. The function of the brake is to reduce speed or bring the vehicle to a stop. Its working principle involves converting the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy through friction between the brake pads and brake drum, as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby slowing down or stopping the vehicle. Reasons for brake failure include: 1. Impurities in the brake master cylinder or poor sealing. 2. Failure of the vacuum booster pump. 3. Contaminated brake fluid. 4. Leakage in the brake master cylinder or wheel cylinder. 5. Air leakage from the air reservoir or pipeline connections. 6. Severe overloading. 7. Carbonization of the brake drum. 8. Insufficient brake fluid in the brake master cylinder. 9. Wear of the brake master cylinder piston.
