Introduction to the reasons why a car's air conditioning is not cooling: 1. Insufficient or too little refrigerant. A common reason for a car's air conditioning not cooling is insufficient or too little refrigerant, which is likely caused by minor leaks. 2. Too much refrigerant. There are specific requirements for the proportion of refrigerant in the air conditioning system. If the proportion is too high, it can affect heat dissipation. 3. Loose drive belt of the car's air conditioning compressor. Car cooling relies on refrigerant, and refrigerant transmission depends on the air conditioning compressor. The drive belt is an important moving part that drives the compressor. If the drive belt is loose, the compressor may slip during operation, leading to reduced transmission efficiency, decreased compressor speed, and reduced refrigerant delivery, resulting in the air conditioning not cooling. If the compressor drive belt is too loose, it should be tightened. If it cannot be turned by hand, it indicates the belt is too tight and should be slightly loosened. 4. Substandard refrigerant and refrigeration oil. Excessive impurities in the refrigerant and refrigeration oil can clog the car's air conditioning filter, causing the air conditioning not to cool. This increases resistance and reduces the flow of refrigerant to the expansion valve, leading to insufficient cooling capacity. 5. Moisture infiltration in the refrigeration system. If moisture enters the car's air conditioning refrigeration system, it can cause insufficient cooling or no cooling at all.

How to Use Lights When Driving a Motor Vehicle at Night?

When driving a motor vehicle at night, the methods for using lights are as follows: 1. When two vehicles meet and are less than 200 meters apart, the high beams should be turned off in advance to avoid affecting the other driver's vision; 2. During normal driving, when the distance to the vehicle in front is relatively close, the following vehicle should not use high beams and should only use low beams; 3. In foggy conditions, the vehicle's fog lights should be turned on to ensure visibility; 4. When overtaking, the driver should flash the high and low beams in advance to alert the vehicle ahead of the intention to overtake; 5. When using vehicle lights, avoid prolonged use of hazard lights on highways to prevent affecting other drivers.

What are the urea system faults in the Mercedes-Benz GL350 diesel version?

Mercedes-Benz GL350 diesel version urea system faults include the following points: Overview of urea system faults: Insufficient vehicle power, dashboard warning prompts. Urea pump not drawing liquid, indicating issues with the urea pump's liquid circuit. Urea pump not spraying gas, low urea consumption. Overview of urea pump: It is a crucial component of the urea solution injection metering system. Its main functions are to extract urea solution from the urea tank, maintain certain pressure, and deliver it to the injection unit to meet the flow and pressure requirements of the injection metering system. After adopting SCR technology, the engine's emission performance largely depends on the calibration of the urea injection system and the related performance of the urea pump.

What does the Geely Free Cruiser warning light indicate?

Geely Free Cruiser warning lights indicate a malfunction in vehicle components. Dashboard icon explanations: One is the engine oil icon, the other is the engine icon. If these icons appear when only inserting the key (power on but engine not started), it's normal. If these icons appear while the engine is running, it means the engine oil is insufficient and there's an engine issue. You should immediately stop the vehicle, turn off the engine, and arrange for towing to a 4S shop for repairs. Reasons for engine warning light illumination: This indicates an electronic control malfunction in the engine. You need to visit a repair shop to read the fault codes with a diagnostic scanner, then perform repairs according to the fault code instructions.

What are the causes of frame deformation?

Frame deformation is caused by: 1. The vertical impact load on the frame caused by driving on uneven road surfaces exceeds the allowable stress of the frame. When the vehicle is going uphill, downhill, turning, or unevenly loaded, it can also cause local overload of the frame, leading to frame fracture; 2. When the vehicle is moving, one side of the front wheels encounters significant resistance, making the frame prone to diagonal plane deformation; 3. The vehicle is involved in a collision accident; 4. The frame design or auxiliary devices cause local torque, resulting in frame fracture. Frame deformation refers to the frame changing its original geometric shape, causing the relative positions of various assemblies and parts installed on the frame to shift, deteriorating the vehicle's technical condition and preventing normal operation. Frame deformation often occurs when the force acting on the frame exceeds its elastic limit. After the force is removed, the frame cannot return to its original shape, resulting in residual deformation.
