Hydraulic brake system failure can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. Air in the brake system; 2. Blockage or insufficient brake fluid in the master cylinder and hydraulic lines; 3. Clogged oil inlet hole of the master cylinder or vent hole on the filler cap; 4. Poor contact between the friction lining and the brake drum; 5. Lack of or insufficient oil in the master cylinder. Solutions for hydraulic brake system failure: 1. Add brake fluid to the specified level; 2. Inspect the brake hoses or metal pipes from the master cylinder to the wheel cylinders for cracks or leaks. The hydraulic brake system is an evolution of traditional hydraulic brakes, where the operating mechanism replaces the conventional hydraulic brake pedal with an electronic brake pedal, eliminating the bulky vacuum booster.

I've been driving for most of my life and have seen plenty of brake failures, often caused by brake fluid leaks—like a hole in a water pipe, the pressure drops and the brakes feel spongy. Air getting into the system is also a headache, making the pedal feel unreliable. Master cylinder failures, such as damaged seals, or blocked/cracked brake lines, can all lead to accidents. If the brake fluid deteriorates and corrodes internal components, the risk becomes even greater. It's important to develop the habit of regularly checking fluid levels and not skimping on fresh fluid. If you notice the pedal feels loose or the brake warning light isn't working, pull over immediately—don't take risks. Safety isn't something to be careless about; get it fixed at a professional shop right away. The brake fluid replacement cycle is best kept to every two years. These small maintenance steps can keep you safe on the road.

What are the signs of a damaged car shock absorber?

The signs of a damaged car shock absorber are: 1. Shock absorber oil leakage; 2. Wheels make noise when driving on bumpy roads or speed bumps; 3. Noticeably increased body roll when turning, and in severe cases, skidding may occur; 4. After driving on rough roads for a while, touch the outer shells of each shock absorber—if one is cold, it indicates that shock absorber is damaged; 5. When the car is stationary, press down on one corner of the body and release it. If the body rebounds under the spring force and oscillates several times before stopping, it indicates poor damping performance of the shock absorber. The main function of a shock absorber is to ensure smooth vehicle operation, cushion vibrations, and provide greater comfort for passengers by suppressing springs to absorb oscillations and impacts from the road surface.

What are the solutions for automotive circuit failures?

Automotive circuit failures can be addressed with the following solutions: 1. In case of a lost or damaged ignition switch key, bypass the ignition switch by directly connecting the wires or short-circuiting the two terminals of the switch to activate the ignition circuit; 2. For a leaking or damaged distributor rotor, remove its spring plate, place an insulating film or apply melted battery sealing compound, then reinstall the spring plate as a temporary fix; 3. If the distributor rotor is severely damaged, use a rubber dust cover from a distributor, attach a metal piece to it, and fit the lower end onto the distributor camshaft as an emergency measure; 4. For a leaking or cracked distributor cap where there is cross-circuiting between sockets or leakage from sockets to the outside, clean the affected area and lightly heat it with a low flame to resolve the issue.
