Vehicle speed sensors are divided into three types: magnetic speed sensors, Hall-type speed sensors, and photoelectric speed sensors. The main functions of the vehicle speed sensor are as follows: 1. The vehicle speedometer displays the driving speed of the car through the swing of a pointer. 2. Simply put, the speedometer contains a system (including a rotating disk with a pointer shaft, a rotating shaft with permanent magnets, bearings, hairsprings, and other components) that controls the swing of the pointer. The swing amplitude of the pointer is ultimately determined by the rotational speed output from the transmission (i.e., the rotating shaft of the speedometer is driven by a flexible shaft, which is connected to the worm gear in the worm-gear transmission pair on the output shaft of the car's transmission or transfer case). 3. Due to the manufacturing process of the components themselves, assembly errors, natural wear during use, and changes in the magnetism of magnetic components, all can cause indication errors in the speedometer.

How to Distinguish Whether a Car is China 6 Compliant?

The differences between China 5 and China 6 emission standards are as follows: Different emission standards: China 6 emission standards are more than 30% stricter than China 5. Excluding the influence of driving conditions and testing, gasoline vehicles' carbon monoxide emissions are reduced by 50%, total hydrocarbons and non-methane hydrocarbons emissions are reduced by 50%, and nitrogen oxide emissions are reduced by 42%. Different implementation times: The China 5 standard was implemented nationwide on January 1, 2017, as the fifth stage of national motor vehicle emission standards. China 6 was implemented starting July 1, 2019. Different principles: Under China 5, diesel and gasoline vehicles had different emission standards, but China 6 adopts a fuel-neutral principle, meaning the emission limits are the same regardless of the fuel type. Different issuing departments: The China 5 standard was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. The China 6 standard was issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine. Different letter representations: China 5 is represented by 'V,' while China 6 is represented by 'VI.' Different monitoring requirements for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles: Compared to China 5, China 6 improves monitoring requirements for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, including energy storage systems, thermal management systems, brake regeneration, drive motors, generators, and other regulatory aspects. China 5 standard limits are as follows: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 1,000 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 68 milligrams of non-methane hydrocarbons per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 60 milligrams of nitrogen oxides per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 4.5 milligrams of PM (particulate matter) per kilometer driven. China 6 has two standards: China 6a and China 6b, as follows: China 6a standard limits: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 700 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 68 milligrams of non-methane hydrocarbons per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 60 milligrams of nitrogen oxides per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 4.5 milligrams of PM per kilometer driven. China 6b standard limits: Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 500 milligrams of carbon monoxide per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 35 milligrams of non-methane hydrocarbons per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 35 milligrams of nitrogen oxides per kilometer driven. Gasoline vehicles must not emit more than 3 milligrams of PM per kilometer driven. Affected by the China 6 emission policy, although China 5 vehicles can still be used normally without restrictions like traffic bans or license plate limitations, their resale value will be significantly impacted. For car owners, if they purchase a truck for freight transport with a loan, the vehicle's depreciation after repaying the loan is equivalent to the net profit earned during that period. A higher residual value means more profit for the owner. Therefore, from this perspective, China 6 vehicles, which have a longer lifespan and more road rights, are more advantageous.

What's the reason for the lack of power in FAW JH6 acceleration?

The reasons for the lack of power in FAW JH6 acceleration include carbon deposit issues and fuel system problems. The specific explanations are as follows: Carbon deposit issues: Carbon deposits include cylinder carbon deposits, throttle carbon deposits, spark plug carbon deposits, and intake carbon deposits. These areas are closely related to the engine's power output. When there is excessive carbon deposit inside the engine, the car's ignition energy decreases, intake efficiency drops, ultimately leading to reduced engine power and symptoms like shaking and weak acceleration. Fuel system problems: Using incompatible fuel grades can cause a decrease in the car's output power and reduced performance. Alternatively, if the fuel tank vent is blocked and cannot supply the required amount of fuel, it may result in a lean air-fuel mixture and weak engine acceleration.
