It is the mechanism used to control the direction of various wheeled or tracked vehicles. Below are the relevant introductions: 1. Composition: The steering mechanism of wheeled vehicles generally consists of a steering gear and steering linkage. When power steering is employed, additional components such as a hydraulic pump, control valve, actuator cylinder, and oil reservoir are required, collectively known as the hydraulic power steering system. 2. Driving Safety: Modern mid-to-high-end cars and heavy-duty vehicles commonly use power steering systems, which not only significantly improve the ease of vehicle operation but also enhance driving safety. 3. Maintenance: The maintenance of the power steering system mainly involves: regularly checking the fluid level in the reservoir when hot (approximately 66°C, feeling hot to the touch), ensuring the fluid level is between the HOT and COLD marks.

What Causes the Passat's Auto Hold Light Not to Illuminate?

Passat auto hold light not illuminating reasons are as follows: Brake light switch issue: If the brake light switch malfunctions, all brake lights will fail to illuminate. During repair, you can try connecting the brake light switch with a wire. If the brake lights turn on, it indicates the switch is faulty and needs replacement. Brake light bulb issue: Frequent use of brake lights can cause bulb wear. When the bulb filament breaks, it will no longer illuminate. If the car's brake lights are not working, inspect the bulb for integrity. If the bulb is found to be faulty, replace it. Fuse issue: If both the bulb and switch are confirmed to be functioning properly, check the fuse. Some vehicles do not have a separate brake light fuse and share one with other electrical devices. In this case, inspect the operation of other electrical devices in the vehicle. Identify any non-functioning devices and replace the corresponding fuse.

Where is the temperature sensor for the footwell air vent in the Mercedes Vito?

The temperature sensor for the footwell air vent in the Mercedes Vito is located next to the ignition switch, on its right side, inside the instrument panel. Location of the air conditioning pressure sensor: It is generally installed after the dryer and is used to detect the hydraulic pressure of the liquid refrigerant flowing through the expansion valve. Three wires detect high and low pressure. When a refrigerant leak and compressor oil loss occur after a car collision, to prevent compressor damage due to lack of oil, the compressor power is quickly cut off once low pressure is detected. When high pressure is detected, the compressor power needs to be reduced to avoid wasted effort. Location of the air conditioning temperature sensor: It is usually installed inside the temperature sensing bulb and serves as the evaporator temperature sensor. When the cooling reaches a certain level, the compressor needs to be shut down; otherwise, continued cooling may cause frost formation, eventually leading to ice blockage.

Why Does the Auto Start-Stop Function Fail in a New Car?

If the auto start-stop function fails, it could be due to issues with the car's battery, a malfunction in the auto start-stop system, wiring problems, or other reasons causing the system to stop working. It is recommended to have it checked at a repair shop. Accidentally Pressing the Auto Start-Stop Button: Vehicles equipped with the auto start-stop function usually have the system enabled by default. If it suddenly stops working, it might be because the auto start-stop button was accidentally pressed, turning the system off. The owner should check whether the system has been deactivated. The function will not activate under the following conditions: when the engine has not reached normal operating temperature, when the automatic air conditioning has not reached the preset temperature, when the battery charge is insufficient, when the steering wheel is turned after stopping, during emergency braking, or when reversing. Engine Auto Start-Stop Function: The engine auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (e.g., at a red light) and restarts it when it's time to move again. This system helps reduce unnecessary fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve fuel economy.
