What does it mean when the ABS light appears on the car dashboard?

The ABS light appearing on the car dashboard indicates a fault in the ABS system, reminding the driver to drive carefully and have it inspected and repaired as soon as possible. Common causes of the fault include: damaged or dirty wheel speed sensors (clean or replace the sensors); damaged or dirty signal rings (clean or replace the bearings); damaged ABS control unit (replace the control unit); loose or broken ABS wiring (repair or replace the wiring harness). The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) automatically controls the braking force during car braking to prevent the wheels from locking up, keeping them in a state of rolling and sliding (with a slip ratio of about 20%), ensuring maximum traction between the wheels and the road.

How Often Should Engine Oil Be Changed in a Van?

Van engine oil should be changed every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers, or every six months to one year. Engine oil, also known as motor lubricant, plays a crucial role in lubricating the engine, reducing friction, aiding in cooling, and preventing rust and corrosion. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a vehicle. Motor lubricant generally consists of two components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives help compensate for any deficiencies in the base oil's performance. Inside the engine, numerous components move against each other during operation. These parts operate at high speeds under harsh conditions, with temperatures potentially exceeding 400 degrees Celsius. The presence of lubricating oil helps reduce wear on these components, thereby extending the engine's lifespan.

Can You Still Drive with a Flat Tire?

It is strongly advised not to continue driving when a car tire is flat, as this can cause damage to both the wheel rim and the tire, and also compromises driving safety. Tires are the only components of a car that come into direct contact with the ground, making them crucial for driving safety and stability. Tire pressure should neither be too high nor too low. If the tire pressure is too low, it can cause wave-like deformation during high-speed driving, which may lead to a blowout. Strictly speaking, tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The dangers of low tire pressure include: excessive deformation of the tire body, increased likelihood of cracks on the tire sidewalls, flexing movements that generate excessive heat, accelerated rubber aging, fatigue in the fabric layers, and broken cords. Additionally, low pressure increases the tire's contact area with the ground, accelerating wear on the tire shoulders.

Can You Still Drive When the Engine Fault Light Comes On?

When the engine fault light comes on, it is recommended to stop driving immediately to protect the engine. Continuing to drive may cause damage to the engine. With the advancement in automotive manufacturing, the engine itself rarely encounters issues. However, there are numerous sensors and electronic devices around the engine, along with critical components. If any of these malfunction, it may lead to the engine not functioning properly, triggering the engine fault light. The engine is surrounded by various sensors, such as the coolant temperature sensor, oxygen sensor, intake air temperature sensor, camshaft position sensor, knock sensor, etc. A failure in any one of these sensors can cause the engine to malfunction.
