What are the reasons for insufficient clamping force of the Haval H6 electronic handbrake?
2 Answers
The reasons for insufficient clamping force of the Haval H6 electronic handbrake are as follows: 1. Excessive water content in the brake fluid. Solution: Replace the brake fluid. 2. Damage to the electronic handbrake control unit or handbrake switch. Solution: Requires repair or replacement of damaged parts at a 4S shop. 3. The generator is not producing electricity. Solution: Requires repair at a 4S shop. More information about the electronic handbrake is as follows: 1. The electronic handbrake is an electronic parking brake system. The electronic parking brake system integrates the temporary braking function during driving with the long-term braking function after parking, achieving parking braking through electronic control technology. 2. The electronic handbrake achieves parking braking through electronic control. It controls parking braking through the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads.
Recently helped someone deal with insufficient clamping force on the Haval H6's electronic parking brake, and found this issue is quite common. Most of the time, it's due to worn brake pads or a faulty control unit. The electronic parking brake relies on sensors to detect clamping force, and if the sensors are dirty or the wiring is loose, it can misjudge the situation. Additionally, uneven brake discs can also reduce clamping force, or hydraulic system leaks may cause insufficient pressure. It's recommended to regularly check the thickness of brake components, especially before long trips. Ignoring this issue could lead to vehicle rollaway when parked, which poses significant risks. Getting a reliable auto shop to inspect it is the safest bet—don’t try to fix it yourself. The braking system is crucial, and addressing issues early saves money.
