Crown PCS stands for Pre-Collision Safety System. When the PCS light is on, it indicates that the pre-collision safety system is either turned off or malfunctioning. Here are some details about the PCS system: 1. Function: The PCS Pre-Collision Safety System adopts an advanced proactive safety concept that prevents accidents before they occur. It makes full use of the critical time before a potential collision to avoid impact whenever possible. When a collision is unavoidable, the system prepares protective measures in advance to maximize the safety of passengers. The pre-collision safety system can also automatically adjust a series of safety systems, such as pre-collision brake assist, emergency steering assist, and vehicle dynamic integrated management, to minimize the chance of collision. If the system determines that a collision is unavoidable, it will pre-tighten the front seat belts and activate braking to reduce damage as much as possible. 2. Sensor Location: The pre-collision safety system's sensor is typically a millimeter-wave radar installed at the front of the vehicle. This radar automatically detects obstacles ahead and calculates the likelihood of a collision. If the system determines a high probability of collision, it will sound an alarm to alert the driver to take evasive action. At this point, other active safety devices will also be integrated, with brake assist entering a preparatory state to help the driver apply the brakes.
