A triangle with an exclamation mark indicates a malfunction in the car's general performance, components, or functions. Common issues include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. Solution: It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. The exclamation mark is a common fault warning in cars. Besides the triangle with an exclamation mark, there are four other forms of exclamation marks: a yellow gear with an exclamation mark, a red circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle, a yellow parenthesis with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle, and a yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a transmission fault or transmission lubricant below the normal range. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake System Fault: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, mainly indicating a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. The brake system should be inspected immediately to avoid accidents. Tire Pressure Anomaly: A parenthesis with a horizontal line and an exclamation mark in the middle represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting fault indicator, indicating a malfunction in one of the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop as soon as possible for inspection and repair, or check it yourself, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lighting, to identify the problem.

What are the symptoms of a faulty hydraulic oil pump solenoid valve?

Symptoms of a faulty hydraulic oil pump solenoid valve: The vehicle's fuel system will malfunction; difficulty in throttle control will increase; the car may experience jerking or failure to accelerate when pressing the throttle. The oil pump solenoid valve contains a sealed chamber with openings at different positions, each connected to different oil pipes. In the middle of the chamber is a piston, with electromagnets on both sides, which controls the movement of the valve body to open or close the oil discharge holes. The vehicle's fuel system is a crucial component. When the car has been driven approximately 20,000 kilometers, the fuel system should be inspected to avoid malfunctions caused by blockages. When adding fuel, it is advisable to use high-quality fuel, which is less likely to precipitate and form carbon deposits that could clog the vehicle's pipeline system.

What are the symptoms of poor fuel line flow?

The symptoms of poor fuel line flow include unstable idling, engine shaking, weak acceleration, and stalling. The main areas where fuel line blockages occur are the fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel injector, suction pipe, and fuel tank vent. Using low-quality gasoline or introducing impurities during refueling can cause fuel line blockages. In daily vehicle use, it is important to maintain the fuel filter, promptly clean the fuel filter element and fuel line pipes. Methods for cleaning the fuel line include: 1. Adding fuel cleaner to the gasoline; 2. Removing carbon deposits and sediments from the fuel line and throttle body; 3. Connecting the engine's fuel inlet and return pipes to the corresponding pipes of a no-disassembly cleaning machine, and using adapters to link the fuel inlet and return pipes. When selecting gasoline, choose high-quality fuel, and consider adding fuel cleaner periodically. Regular inspection and replacement of the fuel filter are essential to better prevent such issues.

What are the functions of the clutch, brake, and accelerator respectively?

Here are the detailed introductions to the functions of the clutch, brake, and accelerator: 1. Clutch: The function of the clutch is to ensure smooth starting of the car and achieve smooth gear shifting. During driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily separate or gradually engage the engine and the transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power from the engine to the transmission. 2. Brake: The function of the brake is to slow down the moving car until it comes to a complete stop. The handbrake or the parking gear in an automatic transmission locks the drive shaft or rear wheels. 3. Accelerator: The function of the accelerator is to control the opening of the engine throttle by adjusting the amount of pedal depression, thereby regulating the air intake. The computer then controls the fuel injection to manage the engine speed.
