When tc is displayed on the dashboard, it means the car's traction control system is active. tc is the abbreviation for Traction Control System, which is designed to improve the stability of the car while moving. The traction control system mainly relies on the sensors of the anti-lock braking system to process and respond to the information received from the sensors. When it detects that the speed of the driven wheel is lower than that of the driving wheel, it will make detailed adjustments to the car's ignition timing, valve opening, throttle, etc., to prevent the car from skidding. The traction control system and the anti-lock braking system work together to play an indispensable role in car safety and driving stability.

What Causes the Smell of Gasoline in the Air Blown by the Car Air Conditioner?

Car air conditioner blowing air with a gasoline smell may be caused by leaks at the gasoline pipe connections or overfilling the fuel tank. Gasoline pipe leakage: The smell of gasoline may enter the car through the air conditioning system. Leaks usually occur at the connections between pipes. Open the engine compartment cover and visually inspect, as leaks will eventually leave a layer of oily residue on the surface over time. Tightening or repair is needed. Overfilling the fuel tank: Overfilling the tank can easily cause a gasoline smell inside the car. If gasoline enters the pipes in the activated carbon canister system, these liquid fuels not only harm the carbon canister itself but can also flow into the intake manifold, causing spark plug flooding. This can lead to serious consequences such as the car stalling when refueling and eventually failing to start.

Where is the auto start-stop button on the Haval H2?

The auto start-stop button on the Haval H2 is located as the second button in the bottom row of the center console buttons, marked with the ECON label. The auto start-stop function on the Haval H2 is enabled by default. Once the car is started, the auto start-stop system is in normal working condition. To turn it off, simply press the auto start-stop button. Vehicle auto start-stop technology: A secondary start sensor is installed on the starter. When the computer detects that the brake is pressed while waiting at a red light, the vehicle automatically shuts off to improve fuel economy. When ready to move, the computer sends a signal to the secondary start sensor, and the vehicle automatically restarts. More advanced vehicles use the vehicle's capacitor to complete the entire process instead of the starter, which helps extend the starter's lifespan. Main function of auto start-stop: It allows the engine to automatically stop working when the vehicle is briefly stationary. When the brake is released to resume driving, the engine restarts, achieving fuel-saving effects when the vehicle is in a stopped state.

What are the symptoms of a clock spring failure?

After the clock spring is damaged, the symptoms include the horn not working, abnormal noises from the steering wheel while driving, and the airbag warning light appearing on the dashboard. Horn not working: When the horn does not sound, it could be due to a damaged clock spring. First, unplug the horn connector, ground the horn button wire at the lower end of the clock spring, and then measure the horn wire below. If both measurements result in the horn sounding, then measure the horn wire at the upper end of the clock spring. If it does not sound, this confirms a clock spring failure. Abnormal noises from the steering wheel while driving: If the steering wheel makes no abnormal noises after removing the clock spring, this indicates the clock spring is damaged. Airbag warning light appears on the dashboard: The appearance of the airbag warning light can generally indicate a clock spring failure. Additionally, if the control buttons on the steering wheel, such as those for volume or radio, fail to function properly, this confirms a broken clock spring.
