What Causes a Car to Fail to Shift Gears After Wading Through Water?
1 Answers
When the clutch gets wet, it may stick, resulting in incomplete disengagement, which necessitates replacing the clutch disc and pressure plate. Here are relevant details: 1. Definition: Located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and transmission, the clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws. It functions as a switch-like device that transmits the engine power of a car or other power machinery to the axle. 2. Function: The driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine with the transmission, thereby cutting off or transferring the engine's power input to the transmission.
