The noise in the power steering pump may be caused by the pressure relief valve operating, a clogged filter, a faulty power steering pump, or insufficient power steering fluid. Below are the specific details: Pressure Relief Valve Operating: The sound produced when the pressure relief valve is operating is normal; Clogged Filter: A clogged filter can cause the pump to make noise. Over time, the oil reservoir with a filter can become clogged with dust, debris, or oil sludge, requiring the filter to be cleaned; Faulty Power Steering Pump: Issues with the power steering pump, such as air intake, leaking high-pressure oil pipes, or problems with the oil reservoir, require repair at a 4S shop; Insufficient Power Steering Fluid: If there is insufficient power steering fluid, simply add more. When adding fluid, be careful not to mix different types of oil, as mixing power steering fluids can accelerate oil degradation, increase mechanical wear, and potentially lead to mechanical failures.

What Brand Are Military Vehicles?

Beijing Automobile Works BJ212, BJ212 (hereinafter referred to as Jeep/212) is the earliest passenger car produced in China. As early as 1965, the BJ212 was born. From the time when Chairman Mao Zedong, the first-generation leader of New China, rode in an open-top 212 to review the Red Guards to the present, the 212 has gone through 50 years, with a market ownership of 600,000 units. It has many derivative models, including open-top and pickup versions, among others. The BJ212 has a simple structure and is easy to repair. In the era of material shortages at that time, the BJ212 once shone brightly. With strong off-road capability, lightweight, and rugged reliability, even today, the 212 remains a "sacred vehicle" for many off-road enthusiasts, being an excellent choice for practice or off-roading. Below is relevant information: Appearance: The current 212 adopts two door forms: triangular doors and square doors. The vehicle is extremely simple, with round headlights retaining the design from the last century. The square turn signals and fog lights are primarily practical. The bulging hood gives a sense of strength, paired with the classic dark green body, making it a scenic sight wherever it goes. In terms of body size, the BJ212 measures 4080 1840 1870mm, with a wheelbase of 2300mm. The shorter body is very helpful for off-road capability. Interior: The BJ212 still adopts a utilitarian design. After the facelift, the model has added modern equipment such as a radio and air conditioning. The dashboard and steering wheel are extremely simple in style, as the simpler the design, the more reliable it is for frequently traveling in uninhabited areas or harsh conditions. Additionally, the vehicle's lighting controls still maintain the previous lever-style, with a retro look that evokes nostalgia.

What Causes the Breakdown of an Ignition Coil?

There are several reasons for the internal breakdown of an automobile ignition coil: 1. The engine is not running, and the ignition switch remains on for an extended period, causing the thermal effect of current to damage the coil insulation inside the ignition coil. 2. The engine overheats, melting the coil insulation adhesive and rendering it ineffective. 3. Excessive spark plug electrode gap increases the load on the ignition coil, leading to the breakdown of the high-voltage coil and resulting in a short circuit or open circuit. 4. A broken high-voltage wire leaves the generated high-voltage electricity with no path to travel, easily causing the high-voltage coil to break down. In this case, the engine may be difficult to start, and the high-voltage circuit should be checked for any breaks.
