What are the causes of electronic steering failure in Changan Ruixing m80?
2 Answers
There are three situations of electronic steering failure in Changan Ruixing m80. The following are the specific causes of electronic steering failure in Changan Ruixing m80: 1. Heavy steering failure: There is a large amount of air in the power steering system, causing abnormal car steering; There are foreign objects in the steering hydraulic pipeline, causing the steering pump flow control valve to stick; The connecting parts of the power steering system are loose, causing steering fluid leakage; The steering gear piston cylinder is excessively worn, the oil seal is poorly sealed, and the control valve is stuck or damaged. 2. Steering abnormal noise failure: The steering system is overloaded, causing excessive wear of the stator and rotor inside the steering pump, resulting in irregular movement of the oil in the pump and abnormal noise; The installation of the steering gear and steering pump on the bracket is loose, the internal wear of the steering gear is excessive, and the gear and rack are improperly adjusted. 3. Steering system oil leakage failure: Generally, the steering pump will not leak oil without damage. However, it is still necessary to check the connecting parts and connections in the power system and steering system to see if there is any leakage.
I've driven quite a few vehicles, and electronic steering failures are quite common. Issues like those in the Changan Ruixing M80 are often caused by insufficient battery voltage. As vehicles age, battery deterioration can lead to unstable power supply to the power steering system, directly causing the steering to become unresponsive. Another common cause is sensor problems, such as dust accumulation or water ingress in the steering angle sensor, which can disrupt signals and cause malfunctions. I once experienced this where the steering felt stiff after starting, checked that the fuses weren't blown, and later found that tightening the battery connections fixed it. Regularly checking the tightness of battery terminals and monitoring dashboard warning lights can prevent issues. Electronic steering failures are extremely dangerous, especially terrifying if they occur on highways. It's advisable to pull over immediately if symptoms appear and call for professional assistance rather than attempting DIY fixes. During regular maintenance, have the mechanic inspect the related electrical systems thoroughly to prevent minor issues from escalating into major problems.
