Toyota parking assist system malfunctions are caused by damage to the radar control box. The parking assist system includes ultrasonic sensors embedded in the front and rear bumpers, each with a diameter of approximately 15mm. The ultrasonic detection signals emitted by the sensors reflect when encountering obstacles. Upon receiving the reflected signals, the sensors promptly feed them back to the system for distance calculation, alerting the driver through sound or video about the distance to obstacles beyond their field of vision. Below are specific introductions to automotive radar types: 1. Speed Measurement Radar: Measures vehicle speed by detecting wheel rotation speed. 2. Obstacle Detection Radar: Observes terrain under low visibility conditions. 3. Adaptive Cruise Control Radar: Maintains a safe speed relative to the vehicle ahead based on both vehicles' speeds. 4. Collision Avoidance Radar: Detects potential collision-causing obstacles on the road ahead of the vehicle.

What Are the Causes of Excessive Steering Gear Play?

The causes of excessive steering gear play are the wear and tear of the internal gear rack in the steering gear and the wear of the clock spring (commonly known as the airbag coil) under the steering wheel after prolonged vehicle use and high mileage. Wear of the internal gear rack in the steering gear: If there is excessive play in the steering wheel, the steering gear must be inspected. If the gear rack shows abnormal and severe wear, the entire steering gear assembly must be replaced. Wear of the clock spring (airbag coil) under the steering wheel: If the circuit most frequently turned by the steering wheel malfunctions, the spiral cable, commonly referred to as the airbag coil, is faulty. The faulty component needs to be disassembled for further circuit inspection and repair, and the corresponding relationships of all signal lines in the airbag coil must be clarified.

Do Cars Need Mud Flaps?

Car needs mud flaps, here are the relevant introductions: 1.
