What does the exclamation mark with a P on the car dashboard mean?
1 Answers
On the car dashboard, a constant illumination of an exclamation mark and the letter P indicates the handbrake warning light, also known as the parking brake indicator. Here is a detailed introduction about car brakes: 1. Overview: Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of moving locomotives, vehicles, and other transportation tools or machinery. The general principle of braking is to fix a wheel or disc on the high-speed shaft of the machine and install corresponding brake shoes, bands, or discs on the machine base, which generate braking torque under external force. 2. Brake Pads: Car brake pads, also called brake linings, are friction materials fixed on the rotating brake drum or brake disc of the wheel. The friction linings and blocks bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby achieving vehicle deceleration.
