In summer, the temperature in the engine compartment can reach at least 60-70 degrees Celsius, which is within the normal range. The circuits in the engine compartment mainly consist of capacitors, resistors, and transistors. Below is an introduction to the temperature tolerance of these components: 1. Capacitors: The most heat-sensitive are electrolytic capacitors, with a tolerance temperature not exceeding 105 degrees Celsius. 2. Resistors: Metal oxide film resistors, depending on their power rating, can withstand temperatures between 125-235 degrees Celsius. 3. Transistors: The high-temperature limit for silicon PN junctions is generally 175 degrees Celsius; the lower the temperature, the significantly increased lifespan and reliability.

Why is the parking brake warning light on in a Mercedes-Benz S400?

Reasons: The parking brake lever cannot be secured. The parking brake fails. The parking brake makes abnormal noises or has aged. Releasing the brake while driving: Do not engage the parking brake while the car is in motion, as this may cause the rear brakes to overheat, reducing their effectiveness, shortening their lifespan, or causing permanent damage. Timely repair: If the parking brake cannot stably hold the car or cannot fully release, immediately request an inspection from a dealer or service station. Always fully engage the parking brake before leaving the car; otherwise, the car may move, causing injury or damage.
