What does TCS mean?

TCS stands for Traction Control System, also known as the Track Control System. It determines whether the drive wheels are slipping by comparing the rotation speed of the drive wheels with that of the driven wheels. 1. When the former is greater than the latter, it suppresses the rotation speed of the drive wheels. 2. Its operation mode is very similar to ABS, as both use sensors and brake regulators. Additional Information: 1. When TCS detects wheel slip, it first adjusts the engine ignition timing through the engine control computer to reduce torque output or applies brakes to the slipping wheel. In cases of severe slipping, it further controls the engine fuel supply system. 2. During TCS operation, the transmission maintains a higher gear to prevent sudden downshifts when the throttle is increased, thereby avoiding wheel slip.

What will happen if the secondary air pump is not replaced when it fails?

The secondary air pump failing and not being replaced will affect the three-way catalytic converter. Below are specific details about the secondary air pump: 1. Function: The secondary air pump supplies air to the three-way catalytic converter when the engine is cold. This allows the exhaust gases to mix with the oxygen in the air for secondary combustion, thereby increasing the temperature of the three-way catalytic converter. This helps the catalytic converter reach its optimal operating temperature more quickly, reducing the emission of harmful substances and serving an environmental protection purpose. 2. Other Causes: The symptoms of a faulty secondary air pump include the illumination of the check engine light and the appearance of a fault code indicating "incorrect secondary air flow." These symptoms may also be caused by other issues such as a broken secondary air pipe, a ruptured vacuum hose, a damaged secondary injection valve, incorrect positive wire installation, or a blocked exhaust channel in the cylinder head.

At what speed can cruise control be used?

Generally, cruise control can be activated after reaching a speed of 40 km/h. The function of cruise control is to automatically maintain the vehicle speed as set by the driver without the need to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the vehicle to travel at a constant speed. Using this device, drivers no longer need to control the accelerator pedal during long-distance driving on highways, reducing fatigue and unnecessary speed changes, which can save fuel. Extended content: 1. Activating cruise control: Press the marked button to activate cruise control, and the dashboard information window will display the status. Pressing the button again will deactivate cruise control, and the display on the dashboard will disappear. 2. Setting cruise speed: Press the cruise control lever in the direction indicated by "—SET" to set the speed. 3. How to deactivate cruise control: For manual transmission vehicles, pressing the brake pedal or clutch pedal, or pressing the "OFF" button on the lever switch will temporarily deactivate the system. For automatic transmission vehicles, pressing the brake pedal or shifting the gear lever to "P", "R", "N", or "1" will temporarily deactivate the system.

What to Use for Cleaning a Motorcycle Engine?

Cleaning agents for motorcycle engines include the following: 1. Engine Cleaner: Engine cleaner is very easy to use. It can clean and maintain the inside of the engine without disassembling it. Engine cleaning is usually done when changing the oil, and it can be used for various gasoline vehicle engines. 2. Function of the Cleaner: Engine internal cleaner is a product developed to address the formation of sludge, gum, carbon deposits, paint film, and other deposits inside the lubrication system. It consists of multiple highly effective cleaning components and is an additive that can automatically clean the internal system of the lubrication system. 3. Gasoline Cleaner: The main component of carbon deposits in the engine is impurities in gasoline. Therefore, gasoline with higher cleanliness tends to form fewer carbon deposits. Choosing a genuine gasoline cleaner helps remove carbon deposits inside the engine, effectively preventing the formation of carbon layers on metal surfaces. It can gradually activate existing carbon particles and remove them slowly, thereby protecting the engine from damage.
