When the car SVS light is on, it indicates that the engine control unit has detected an error signal from a certain sensor or that the sensor has exceeded the standard usage range. When the ignition switch is turned on, the car SVS indicator light will illuminate for an automatic check and then turn off after a few seconds. If the SVS light remains on, you can try to see if the engine can start normally. If it can, this may rule out issues with the fuel pump. The SVS fault indicator is a warning light that appears when the ECU (Engine Control Unit) or TCU (Transmission Control Unit) of an electronically fuel-injected car detects a problem with the engine or automatic transmission. Therefore, all electronically fuel-injected cars have an SVS fault indicator light. For manual transmission cars, it serves as the engine fault indicator, while for automatic transmission cars, it indicates both engine and automatic transmission faults.

What does the car B-pillar refer to?

The car B-pillar refers to the vertical pillar between the driver's side window glass and the rear side window glass. Its blind spot is mainly on the right side of the vehicle, which may lead to collisions with vehicles driving normally on the right side. Cars are divided into A-pillars, B-pillars, and C-pillars. The A-pillar is the vertical pillar between the front windshield glass and the driver's side window glass, while the C-pillar is the vertical pillar between the rear side window glass and the rear windshield. The B-pillar is mainly used to support the roof, front and rear doors, and to assemble components such as seat belts and wiring. When the vehicle is impacted from the side, the B-pillar plays a protective role for the occupants inside the car. Thanks to high-tech materials such as carbon fiber and high-strength alloys, the B-pillar is widely used in the car body.
