The reasons for the air conditioning not cooling are roughly as follows: 1. Insufficient refrigerant: Insufficient refrigerant causes the compressor not to work. When the refrigerant is insufficient, it will cause the air conditioning clutch to frequently engage, or even the compressor not to work. Check by bridging the low-pressure cycle switch. If it engages, it is mostly caused by refrigerant leakage. 2. Air conditioning clutch relay failure: The air conditioning clutch relay failure causes the compressor not to work. Check the condition of each terminal of the air conditioning clutch relay 14. There should be 12V voltage on terminals 30 and 85; terminal 87 should have a resistance of several ohms to ground; terminal 86 is the ground terminal provided by the PCM. After turning on the air conditioning, the resistance should be below 10Ω. Bridge terminals 30 and 87, and the clutch should engage. Otherwise, it is an air conditioning clutch relay failure (coil failure, poor coil grounding, or poor contact).

What is 36 psi in terms of tire pressure?

36 psi is equivalent to 2.5 bar tire pressure. psi refers to the unit of tire pressure, while bar is a unit of pressure. Tire pressure indicates the air pressure inside the tire. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: 1. Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 2. Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, lowering driving comfort; 3. Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; 4. Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the longevity of other components; 5. Overextends tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; 6. Decreases puncture resistance, making tires more susceptible to damage from sharp objects like nails or glass, which can lead to internal cracks, blowouts, or tire bursts.

How Long Does It Take to Apply Car Film?

Car film application time depends on the following factors: 1. For full-car heat insulation and explosion-proof film, new sedans take about 2 hours, while used cars (requiring old film removal) take about 3 hours. 2. For full-car color change film or full-car PPF (paint protection film), sedans take about 1 day, while SUV/MPV models take about 1.5 days. The benefits of car film application are as follows: 1. Primarily blocks UV rays, reduces heat transmission, prevents injuries from shattered glass, reduces glare, and protects personal privacy through the one-way visibility feature of solar films. 2. Reduces UV damage to interior items and passengers. Through physical reflection, it lowers interior temperature, decreases air conditioning usage, thereby reducing fuel consumption and saving costs.

How Often Should the Spark Plugs on a Trumpchi GM8 Be Replaced?

Trumpchi GM8 spark plugs should be replaced approximately every 60,000 kilometers. Spark plug replacement cycle: Under normal maintenance conditions, spark plugs should be replaced after driving 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. However, this may vary depending on the brand and engine type. It is recommended to follow the instructions in the user manual. You can refer to the following standards for maintenance and replacement: platinum spark plugs should be replaced at 40,000 kilometers, ordinary nickel alloy spark plugs at 20,000 kilometers, and iridium spark plugs at 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Effects of damaged spark plugs: If the spark plugs are damaged, it can directly cause issues such as leakage in the vehicle's ignition system, increased fuel consumption, and reduced power. The most significant problem is difficulty in ignition, which affects the normal operation of the vehicle. Severe erosion of the spark plug, such as scarring at the top, damage, or melted and eroded electrodes, indicates that the spark plug is damaged and should be replaced. Symptoms of damaged spark plugs in a car: Damaged spark plugs may exhibit the following symptoms: difficulty starting, low power, excessive exhaust emissions, and increased fuel consumption.

Will Car Seat Covers Affect Airbags?

Car seat covers do not affect airbags. Here is an introduction to airbags: 1. The airbag system is a passive safety protection system that, when used in conjunction with seat belts, provides effective collision protection for occupants. 2. In the event of a car collision, airbags can reduce head injuries by 25% and facial injuries by approximately 80%. Additional Information: The installation steps for front seat covers are as follows: 1. If the front seat cushion has a headrest cover, simply pull the car seat cover down over it. Then, there will be one or two buckles at the joint of the car seat cover. Insert these buckles by hand into the gaps of the seat to prevent the car seat cover from moving forward. 2. Next, hook the two small rings at the front of the installed car seat cover onto the metal bars under the seat. Some covers do not have tongue hooks but instead have elastic buckles. Thread one end of the buckle through the middle gap of the seat, pass it under the seat, and then lock it with the other end of the buckle.

Is It Normal for a Car Not to Start and the Hazard Lights to Keep Flashing?

It is not normal for a car not to start and the hazard lights to keep flashing, and it requires timely inspection and repair. Below is a detailed introduction about car maintenance: 1. Overview: Car maintenance is a general term for the upkeep and repair of automobiles. It involves using technical means to diagnose faults in malfunctioning vehicles, identify the causes, and take measures to eliminate the faults and restore the vehicle to certain performance and safety standards. 2. Other Information: Car maintenance includes major repairs and minor repairs. Major repairs refer to restorative repairs that involve repairing or replacing any parts of the car (including fundamental components) to restore the car's technical condition to a satisfactory level and fully (or nearly fully) extend its lifespan. Minor repairs refer to operational repairs that involve replacing or repairing individual parts to ensure or restore the car's operational capability.
