What does it mean when the TC light is on in a Cadillac?

TC stands for Traction Control system. If the TC light remains illuminated, it indicates that the Traction Control system has been deactivated. In this case, simply reactivating the Traction Control system will resolve the issue. The function of the vehicle's Traction Control system: In slippery or wet conditions, starting and accelerating the vehicle may lead to loss of control. If equipped with a Traction Control system, this situation can be prevented; When the vehicle shows signs of slipping, sensors send signals to the ECU, which processes these signals to prevent the wheels from slipping; When used in conjunction with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), the Traction Control system further enhances the vehicle's safety performance. The working principle of the Traction Control system: The Traction Control system is controlled by a computer that monitors the speed of all four wheels and the steering wheel angle. During acceleration, if the computer detects a significant speed difference between the drive wheels and non-drive wheels, it immediately determines that the driving force is excessive and sends a signal to reduce the engine's fuel supply, thereby decreasing the driving force and reducing wheel slip.

What are the types of car floor mats?

Car floor mats include full-coverage mats, carpet mats, and rubber mats. Full-coverage mats, when placed in the car, can completely enclose the space under the feet, preventing dust or water stains from spreading everywhere in the car. Full-coverage mats are also called 3D mats, as they have a concave shape. Carpet mats have strong dirt absorption but are troublesome to clean. As the name suggests, carpet mats have a looped structure that effectively traps dust and dirt inside, making them excellent at absorbing dirt. However, if not cleaned frequently, they can easily breed bacteria. Additionally, carpet mats have a smaller coverage area compared to full-coverage mats. Rubber mats were once favored by many consumers due to their advantages such as being dirt-resistant, easy to clean, and inexpensive. However, during use, it was found that rubber mats are slippery and less safe. Moreover, inferior mats produced by low-quality manufacturers can emit harmful odors, significantly reducing their popularity.

How to Avoid Crossing the Line in Subject 2?

For navigating S-curves, there is a mnemonic technique: "Left point aligns with the right line, right point aligns with the left line." The left and right points refer to the top corners of the car's front. This means when turning in a particular direction, use the corresponding top corner to follow the opposite side's road edge line. Below is an introduction to Subject 2: Definition: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment, specifically referring to the field driving skills test. Objective: Master the basic driving operation essentials and possess fundamental vehicle control abilities; proficiently grasp the basic methods of field and road driving within the test area, capable of reasonably using vehicle controls and correctly managing the vehicle's spatial position, ensuring accurate control over the vehicle's position, speed, and route.

What to Do If You Fail the Driver's License Medical Examination?
