ECS displayed on the vehicle refers to the Electronically Controlled Suspension system, also known as Electronic Control Suspension. The function of ECS is to enable the car to maintain good driving performance when driving on uneven roads, during high-speed turns, sudden acceleration, or braking. In the design of traditional suspension systems, if higher ride comfort is required, it is difficult to meet the stability of handling. To overcome this condition, ECS was developed. ECS can adjust the stiffness of the suspension system, the damping force of the shock absorbers, and the height of the vehicle body according to different road conditions, load mass, driving speed, and other factors, so that the vehicle's ride comfort and handling stability can be better under various driving conditions. ECS is divided into semi-active suspension and active suspension. The active suspension system is costly and relatively less used in vehicles, while most models adopt semi-active suspension.

Is a Negative Short-Term Fuel Trim Lean or Rich?

Indicates that the air-fuel mixture is too rich, and the fuel injection quantity is being reduced. The short-term fuel trim value generally ranges between -5.2% to -8.6%. Below are detailed explanations: 1. How short-term fuel trim works: Short-term fuel trim is a real-time correction control of fuel injection quantity based on the oxygen sensor's feedback regarding the richness or leanness of the air-fuel mixture in previous working cycles. Through continuous short-term fuel trim, the mixture concentration is maintained as close as possible to the theoretical air-fuel ratio. 2. Factors affecting the fuel trim coefficient: Factors that influence the fuel trim coefficient include engine misfires, poor exhaust flow, low fuel pump pressure, or clogged fuel injectors. These aspects should be checked. If the combined value of long-term and short-term fuel trim exceeds 5%, it may indicate potential issues such as clogged injectors, eroded spark plugs, poor fuel quality, faulty air flow meters, or overdue fuel filter replacement.

Where is the cigarette lighter fuse located in the Hongqi H5?

Located under the hood of the Hongqi H5, inside the engine compartment, in the black fuse box next to the battery when the hood is opened. Once opened, the cigarette lighter fuse can be seen. Below is additional information about the cigarette lighter: 1. Definition: The cigarette lighter is a component found in all cars, designed to provide a flame source for smokers. Essentially, it is a device used for lighting cigarettes. However, the commonly referred to cigarette lighter can also be categorized into those that draw power from the vehicle's electrical system. Some manufacturers produce lighters not for lighting cigarettes but for drawing power from the car, these are also known as cigar lighters. 2. Precautions: Generally, the cigarette lighter is mainly used in places where open flames are prohibited, such as factories and workshops, where smoking requires the use of a cigarette lighter. Additionally, besides lighting cigarettes, the car cigarette lighter can also be equipped with a car inverter, converting the car's 12V, 24V, or 48V DC power into 220V/50Hz AC power, which can be used by ordinary electrical appliances. For example, it can charge mobile electronic devices.
