Truck EDC light on means there is a fault in the engine electronic control system. EDC (Electric-Diesel-Control) stands for Electronic Diesel Control. When the EDC engine warning light is on in a truck, fuel consumption will increase. This is usually caused by damage to the engine's high-voltage circuit, fuel injectors, or oxygen sensors. It is recommended to promptly visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair. Here is more information about EDC: 1. Meaning of EDC light on: The EDC light on indicates an engine circuit fault. This is usually caused by starter motor repairs. Since the starter motor has a loopback system, most maintenance personnel replace it with an older starter switch that lacks a loopback system. As a result, the computer detects a fault, but it does not affect usage. 2. Reasons for truck EDC light on: There are many reasons for the EPC light to come on in a truck, including severe throttle carbon buildup, excessively high engine temperature, vehicle intake system failure, ECU failure, etc.

What causes the abnormal noise in the Mercedes-Benz E-class air conditioning?

Mercedes-Benz E-class air conditioning abnormal noise is caused by the failure of the compressor electromagnetic clutch and the tightness of the compressor drive belt. Compressor electromagnetic clutch failure: The compressor frequently operates under high load conditions, shifting from low to high speeds, which places high demands on the electromagnetic clutch. Additionally, the electromagnetic clutch is usually installed close to the ground and often exposed to rain and mud. When the bearings inside the electromagnetic clutch are damaged, abnormal noise occurs. Compressor drive belt tightness: If the drive belt is too loose, the electromagnetic clutch is prone to slipping; if the drive belt is too tight, the load on the electromagnetic clutch increases. Improper drive belt tightness can, at best, cause the compressor to stop working and, at worst, lead to compressor damage. When the drive belt is operating, if the compressor pulley and the generator pulley are not aligned in the same plane, it will reduce the lifespan of the drive belt or the compressor.
