It indicates a problem with the Electronic Brakeforce Distribution control system. Here is relevant information about EBD: 1. Full name: The English full name of EBD is Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, meaning electronic brake force distribution. 2. EBD: EBD is an auxiliary function of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) and can only be used in combination to simultaneously improve the safety factor of vehicle emergency braking. 3. Function of EBD: Vehicles equipped with the EBD system will automatically detect the adhesion condition between each wheel and the ground, and appropriately distribute the force generated by the braking system to the four wheels.

EBD failure means there's an issue with the Electronic Brake-force Distribution system. I've encountered this situation while driving—the dashboard might light up a warning indicator, indicating unbalanced brake force distribution. The EBD system is designed to automatically adjust the braking force between the front and rear wheels during braking to prevent skidding or nose-diving. If it malfunctions, you may feel unstable braking or pulling to one side, especially dangerous in rainy or snowy conditions. Common causes could be sensors blocked by dirt, wiring shorts, or computer module errors. I recommend not delaying and getting it checked at a repair shop promptly, as brakes are critical for driving safety. Additionally, regular maintenance of the braking system can help prevent such issues. Remember, if the warning light comes on while driving, brake gently to slow down and avoid sharp turns.

Why does the Verano center control screen touch malfunction?

There are two possible reasons for the black screen of the car's center control display: unstable power voltage of the car, or issues with the cables on the back of the center control display. No response when pressing buttons on the touch screen: If there is no response when pressing buttons on the touch screen and control cannot be achieved, it indicates a touch screen drift phenomenon. Simply re-enter the touch screen settings page to perform touch range calibration. Touch screen has display: If the touch screen has display and buttons respond when pressed but control cannot be achieved: the RFID of the touch screen does not match the RFID set in the host program, the ID of the wireless receiver does not match the ID set in the host program, or the wireless receiver is beyond the effective distance.

What is the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for a sedan?

Generally, for a family sedan with around 1.6L displacement, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is approximately 6-8 liters. Calculation method: When the fuel gauge pointer of the vehicle drops to a certain position, go to the gas station to refuel, then record the amount of fuel added and the current odometer reading. Wait until the vehicle consumes fuel and the fuel gauge pointer returns to the same position as before refueling, then check how many kilometers have been driven. This will give you the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. Precautions: Check whether the tire pressure meets the standard. If the tires are underinflated, fuel consumption will increase. Inspect the degree of tire wear; if the tires are severely worn, slipping will frequently occur, increasing fuel consumption. If abnormal noises are heard from the wheels during driving or starting, promptly check for faults in the bearings and braking system.

How Often Should Brake Pads Be Replaced on Family Cars?

For family cars, the front brake pads generally need to be replaced every 30,000 kilometers, while the rear brake pads require replacement every 60,000 kilometers. Replacement Based on Wear Level: Brake pad replacement also depends on wear. Brake pads come with grooves, and when the wear reaches the point where the surface is level with the grooves, it's time to replace the brake pads. Replacement Based on Warning Light: Some car models have brake pads equipped with sensor wires. When the brake pads wear down to a certain extent, a warning light will appear on the dashboard, indicating an immediate need for replacement. Replacement Based on Sound: Besides checking wear and warning lights, certain signs can also indicate the wear level of brake pads. If the driver hears a squeaking or metallic grinding noise when lightly applying the brakes, it may mean the brake pads have exceeded their service limit, so an inspection should be done as soon as possible.

Can You Pour Water on Tires When Driving on the Highway in Summer?

You should not pour water on tires when driving on the highway in summer. When hot tires are suddenly exposed to cold water, local thermal expansion and contraction can occur, causing deformation of the tire's internal structure. Rapid temperature changes can also create conflicts between the layers of the tire. If the tire is already aged, this could potentially lead to an explosion. Important Reminders: When driving long distances on the highway, even if you can endure the heat, your vehicle might not. Therefore, it is advisable to stop at a highway rest area every two hours to check tire pressure and look for any punctures or nails in the tires. Avoid Cooling Tires with Water: Pouring water to cool tires can accelerate tire aging and, in severe cases, cause a tire explosion. This is especially critical for large trucks. If you notice smoke coming from the tires, it's best to pull over and let them cool naturally.

Will points be deducted if caught looking at the phone while waiting at a red light?

Points will be deducted if you are caught looking at your phone while waiting at a red light. Reasons for point deduction: China's "Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations" clearly stipulate that drivers must not "answer handheld calls, watch TV, or engage in other behaviors that hinder safe driving." According to the regulations, behaviors such as making phone calls or using handheld devices while driving that obstruct safe driving will result in a one-time deduction of 2 points, and the driver will be fined between 20 and 200 yuan. Things to pay attention to while driving: Do not make or answer phone calls, do not throw garbage out of the window, do not cut lanes arbitrarily, do not compete with pedestrians for the right of way, do not compete with special vehicles for the right of way, and do not use high beams in urban areas.

What are the symptoms of a torque converter failure?

The symptoms of a damaged torque converter include excessively high torque converter oil temperature and abnormal noises during operation. Excessively high torque converter oil temperature: High oil temperature is typically manifested as normal engine operation but increased fuel consumption, very high transmission and transmission oil temperature, and the transmission oil being prone to deterioration. In severe cases, white smoke may emerge from the oil filler port. The possible causes could be insufficient oil in the torque converter, clogged cooling oil pipes, or worn torque converter thrust bearings, leading to excessive blade clearance between the impeller, turbine, and stator. This causes part of the fluid energy to be lost in the form of heat, raising the oil temperature. Abnormal noises during torque converter operation: Abnormal noises during torque converter operation are mainly caused by bearing damage, loose connections of the working wheel, or loose connections with the engine. In such cases, first check for any looseness in the connecting parts, then inspect the bearings. If there is excessive play, they should be adjusted or replaced. Additionally, check the quantity and quality of the hydraulic oil, and add or replace the oil if necessary.
