There are three main reasons why the rear air conditioning in a Prado may not cool. Below are the explanations: Insufficient refrigerant: Leakage of refrigerant in the air conditioning system leads to a lack of refrigerant, preventing the air conditioning from cooling. Solution: Refill the refrigerant promptly. Component damage: Check if any components in the air conditioning system, such as the pipelines, air conditioning pump, condenser, or evaporator, are damaged, causing refrigerant leakage. Solution: Repair or replace the damaged components promptly. Dirty condenser: If the condenser in the air conditioning system is too dirty, it can cause excessively high pressure and temperature in the system. To protect the system, the air conditioning pump stops working, resulting in no cooling. Solution: Use a high-pressure water gun to clean the condenser's cooling fins, then dry them with a high-pressure air gun.

What is Torque Overrun Lock?

Differential lock is equivalent to a rigid connection. The power output from the engine remains unchanged, and the force transmitted to the wheels will not change. If one wheel has less grip, it means the force feedback is smaller. Since force is mutual, a smaller force feedback implies that side is subjected to less force. Therefore, the remaining force is transmitted to the other side, resulting in more torque distribution on that side. Introduction to Limited-Slip Differential: The Limited-Slip Differential, abbreviated as LSD, is an improved type of differential designed to limit wheel slip. It allows a certain range of speed difference between the two driving wheels to ensure normal driving performance, such as during turns. In fact, LSD can be divided into several types based on its construction, each with its own unique features. Functional Principle of Limited-Slip Differential: Before discussing the LSD mechanism, it is essential for readers to first understand the function and operational principle of a differential. The operational principle of the differential itself is quite complex and falls under professional-level construction. To explain the design function and necessity of the original differential in a way that is easy to understand, we will use everyday phenomena and situations that are most familiar to readers.

What Causes the Non-Destructive Testing Crawler Vehicle to Alarm and Reverse Automatically Without Reason?

The reasons for the non-destructive testing crawler vehicle alarming and reversing automatically without reason: Foreign objects on the probe: The solution is to get off the vehicle and check if there is obvious dirt on the rear probe, and clean it to resolve the issue. Probe malfunction: The solution is to go to a 4S shop for inspection and repair, and replacing the probe will resolve the issue. Composition: The full name of the reversing radar is the reversing anti-collision radar, also known as the parking assistance device. It is a safety auxiliary device for parking or reversing a car, consisting of ultrasonic sensors (commonly known as probes), controllers, and displays (or buzzers). Function: It intuitively displays and informs the driver about the surrounding obstacles, helping the driver eliminate blind spots and blurred vision defects, thereby improving driving safety.

Why is there no pressure in the sprinkler truck's water pump?

Sprinkler trucks may experience reduced or no pressure during use due to the following reasons: Pump damage: Check for water leaks or abnormal noises in the pump. If found, the pump needs replacement. Power take-off (PTO) failure: Inspect whether the connecting shaft between the PTO and the pump rotates normally during operation. If not, it indicates a PTO malfunction. Operational error: Incorrect operation of the ball valve switch during water intake or sprinkling. For sprinkling, only the outlet that needs water should be opened; for water intake, only the intake port should be opened. Clogged filter screen: Accumulated impurities in the water may block the filter screen if not cleaned for a long time, leading to reduced pressure. Cleaning the filter screen will resolve this issue. Pipeline damage: Check for leaks in the pipelines and gaskets. If leaks are found, fixing them will restore normal pressure.

Can hybrid vehicles get green license plates in Shenzhen?

Shenzhen's oil-electric hybrid vehicles cannot obtain green license plates. The relevant information is as follows: Not classified as new energy vehicles: Currently in the domestic market, Toyota's oil-electric hybrid technology is not classified as a new energy vehicle and cannot receive green license plates or corresponding subsidies. However, plug-in hybrid technology can obtain exclusive plug-in hybrid green license plates. Currently, Toyota's only plug-in hybrid model is the Corolla PHEV. Related information: According to the latest news, the new RAV4 PHEV plug-in hybrid model will be produced at FAW Toyota's factory in Changchun, with an annual production capacity of approximately 16,200 units. The Avalon PHEV plug-in hybrid model will be produced at factories in Tianjin and Sichuan, with an annual production capacity of nearly 50,000 units.

Can I Claim Auto Damage Insurance for Broken Glass?

If it's only the car window glass that is broken, auto damage insurance won't cover it. You need separate glass breakage insurance for compensation. Relevant explanations are as follows: Reason: If the vehicle is involved in an accident causing damage to the entire car, including the window glass, then auto damage insurance can cover it. Additional note: The 2020 auto insurance reform added 7 responsibilities to auto damage insurance, one of which includes glass insurance. Therefore, now as long as the car owner has purchased auto damage insurance, they can enjoy glass insurance coverage. However, it's important to note that glass insurance does not cover the loss of car lights, sunroofs, or rearview mirrors. The loss of these parts needs to be borne by the car owner themselves.

Why is the battery level display on the electric tricycle dashboard abnormal?

There are two possible scenarios: one is that some batteries are faulty, and the other is that the battery connection wires are loose. Issues in other parts usually result in insufficient power display on the gauge. If the battery is out of power but the gauge still shows full, it's definitely a problem with the power gauge, most likely due to a new gauge being incompatible with the battery specifications. Here is some relevant information: Undersized battery: Check if the tricycle has strong power. If the power is average, it means the battery is undersized, and a larger capacity battery group should be used. Electric tricycles: With advantages such as strong applicability, flexibility, simple maintenance, convenient repairs, and low cost, they can easily navigate through narrow roads. Electric tricycles are equipped with a reverse switch, allowing for convenient reverse driving, which is very practical in narrow alleys and lanes, making both driving and parking very easy.
