What Causes the Cruise Control Light to Illuminate?

Cruise control indicator light illumination signifies that the cruise control function is in standby mode. Below is an introduction to some aspects of cruise control: 1. The cruise control buttons are typically located near the steering wheel and are mainly divided into lever-type, steering wheel button-type, and steering wheel control group-type. 2. Automotive cruise control is used to maintain a set speed. Once the vehicle is set to cruise mode, the engine's fuel supply is controlled by the computer. The computer continuously adjusts the fuel supply based on road conditions and the vehicle's driving resistance to maintain the set speed without the need to operate the accelerator.

The cruise control light being on usually indicates the system is functioning normally, such as when you activate cruise control on the highway. However, if you didn't manually turn it on or if the light stays on continuously, it could be a warning sign. Common causes include a faulty brake light switch (which fails to cut off the cruise signal when braking) or inaccurate speed sensor signals causing system misjudgment. I've had similar experiences: once the light came on unexpectedly due to poor wiring contact, and another time because of a blown fuse. If the light illuminates abnormally, drive with extra caution as it may affect brake response, and promptly visit a professional repair shop to identify potential hazards. Remember, having technicians inspect related components during regular maintenance can prevent many issues.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for high-speed driving?

Generally, a tire pressure value between 2.3-2.5 is considered normal. If the car is fully loaded (5 people), adjusting the tire pressure to around 2.5 is more suitable. For two people, a tire pressure value of 2.3 is also normal. There are several methods to monitor tire pressure: 1. Direct method: Direct tire pressure monitoring devices use pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted from inside the tire to a central receiver module via a wireless transmitter, and then the tire pressure data for each tire is displayed. The system automatically alerts when the tire pressure is too low or there is a leak. 2. Indirect method: Indirect tire pressure warning systems actually rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tire to monitor pressure. When the pressure in a tire decreases, the weight of the vehicle causes the rolling radius of that wheel to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the system monitors the tire pressure. 3. Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): It combines the advantages of both systems mentioned above. It is equipped with direct sensors in two diagonally opposite tires and a 4-wheel indirect system. Compared to using only a direct system, this hybrid system can reduce costs and overcome the drawback of indirect systems not being able to detect when multiple tires simultaneously have low pressure. However, it still cannot provide real-time data of the actual pressure in all four tires like a direct system does.

What does 4G connectivity in a car mean?

4G connectivity in a car refers to the hardware of the intelligent connectivity system, which consists of built-in GPS modules, 4G modules, and a CPU for processing computations. 1. Modules: The GPS module is used for vehicle positioning, while the 4G module has a built-in SIM card, allowing it to access the internet just like a smartphone. The internet can provide and expand infinite functional possibilities. 2. Trend in car usage: With the increasing trend of younger consumers in the automotive industry, and catering to the daily habits of the current post-80s and post-90s generations, the automotive industry is continuously improving, striving to create a new era of car usage trends.

How to Install ETC in the Car?

ETC device installation steps are as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and On-Board Unit (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and a red light will briefly illuminate. The OLED screen will display "Deactivated" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the protective film on the OBU's adhesive back and attach it to the installation location. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is properly inserted into the OBU device. ETC installation locations: For small vehicles like cars and minivans, the ETC card and OBU should be installed on the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles like trucks and buses, the installation location is on the lower middle part. ETC installation requirements: The height should be no less than 1.2 meters and no more than 2.5 meters; the installation angle N should be between 30º and 90º (the angle between the OBU surface and the horizontal plane).

What are the tips for reversing a semi-trailer?

Before reversing a semi-trailer, adjust the truck head and body to keep them as straight as possible, or tilt the truck head towards the target parking space side. Avoid turning the steering wheel to the extreme; instead, make continuous adjustments while reversing. Key points to note: 1. Check the surroundings: Whether moving forward or reversing, always ensure you have a clear view of the surroundings. If visibility is limited, ask someone to assist with guidance, but keep the guide within your line of sight and maintain a safe distance between the person and the vehicle. 2. Mindset: Maintain a calm and composed attitude regardless of the situation. It's okay to make multiple attempts if you can't get it right the first time, and don't rush even if someone honks or urges you.

How to Tell If the Car You're Buying Meets China 6 Emission Standards?

China 5 emission standard is marked with a "V", while China 6 emission standard is marked with a "Ⅵ", both using Roman numerals. When purchasing a new car, the salesperson will provide a vehicle acceptance form, which includes the model, color, emission standard, engine number, and chassis number. For used cars, you can check the vehicle's full model number on the environmental protection website. Details are as follows: 1. Emission Standards: The symbols for China 1 to China 6 are I, II, III, IV, V, and VI, respectively. China first introduced the China 1 emission standard on July 1, 2000. Since it was based on European emission standards and aligned with international standards, the symbols from China 1 to China 6 also adopted Roman numerals. New emission standards have been introduced every few years since then. 2. China 6 Standard: The "China 6 Standard" is divided into two phases, "China 6a" and "China 6b", with nationwide implementation planned for July 1, 2020, and July 1, 2023, respectively. However, the China 6 standard is extremely stringent, far exceeding Europe's sixth-stage emission standards and the U.S. Tier 3 standard, making it one of the strictest emission standards globally. The implementation period for the China 6 standard will also be longer.
