OFF being lit indicates that the vehicle stability system is turned off. ESP-OFF refers to the switch for turning off the Electronic Stability Program. Here is an introduction about this system: 1. The function of the ESP system is to monitor the driving state of the car. When understeer or oversteer occurs during emergency obstacle avoidance or turning, it helps the vehicle avoid deviating from the ideal trajectory. 2. The ESP system integrates three systems: ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), BAS (Brake Assist System), and ASR (Acceleration Slip Regulation System), making its functions more powerful.

What are the tips for driving in foggy weather?

Tips for driving in foggy weather are as follows: 1. Sound the horn to alert oncoming vehicles when meeting them, and turn off the fog lights to avoid dazzling the other driver. 2. Proactively slow down and yield, pulling over to the side if necessary. 3. When meeting vehicles near obstacles on the roadside, leave enough space and a safe distance in advance. 4. Control your speed by managing the throttle. 5. Avoid using high beams. Follow the lighting regulations: turn on the fog lights, tail lights, width indicators, and low beams to maximize visibility and clearly see the movements of vehicles and pedestrians. 6. Use the wipers to clear moisture. Condensation on the windshield can impair the driver's vision and make the lights from oncoming vehicles appear particularly glaring. Therefore, frequently use the wipers to remove moisture and improve clarity of vision.

Is the Hyundai Genesis Coupe rear-wheel drive?

Hyundai Coupe is not rear-wheel drive; all models are front-wheel drive. Front-wheel drive, where the engine is placed at the front and the front wheels drive the vehicle, is a popular drivetrain layout for cars, but it is rarely used in trucks and buses. Front-engine, front-wheel-drive cars typically feature a transversely mounted engine connected to a compact transaxle. More details are as follows: 1. The Hyundai Coupe is a small two-door hardtop sports car produced by Hyundai, measuring 4395 mm in length, 1760 mm in width, and 1330 mm in height. The Hyundai Coupe offers a choice between a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 2.7-liter naturally aspirated engine. 2. The 2.0-liter version produces a maximum horsepower of 143 hp, while the 2.7-liter version delivers a maximum horsepower of 165 hp, both paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission.

Reasons for Starter Motor Failure to Rotate?

After turning on the ignition switch, the starter motor does not rotate. The possible reasons for this failure are as follows: 1. Insufficient battery charge. 2. Loose, corroded, or worn battery cables. 3. Faulty starter relay; for automatic transmissions, the gear position switch may also be faulty. 4. Fuse blown. 5. Starter motor failure, including issues with the electric motor, solenoid switch, or other components. Below are empirical methods to diagnose specific faults: For regular vehicles, you can use a wire to short-circuit the two terminals on the starter solenoid switch to start the engine. If the starter motor operates, the issue may be with the starter relay or fuse; if the starter motor still does not operate, it can be determined that the starter motor is faulty, with the most common failure point being the solenoid switch.

What are the causes of poor car braking?

Car poor braking reasons are as follows: 1. Check if the brake fluid in the brake oil cup is insufficient, if so, add fluid; 2. Check if the brake oil cup and brake oil pipes are leaking, if so, replace them; 3. Check if the brake pads are severely worn, if so, replace them; 4. Check the adjustment of the brake shoe clearance in the brake drum (normal clearance is 2-4mm). Here is a partial introduction to the car braking system: In manual transmission cars, the middle pedal is the brake, while in automatic transmission cars, the left pedal is the brake. In manual transmission cars, after getting in, the left foot operates the clutch, and the right foot operates the accelerator and brake, with the accelerator on the right and the brake in the middle.

Why Do Cars Consume More Fuel in Winter?

Cars consume more fuel in winter than in summer for the following reasons: During winter, the external temperature is extremely low, especially in northern regions where it can drop below -20°C. After a cold start, the vehicle takes longer to reach the normal engine operating temperature (above 85°C). Therefore, the engine control unit commands the fuel injectors to supply more gasoline to the engine cylinders to achieve this temperature. As a result, vehicles use more fuel in winter compared to other seasons. More information about engine oil is as follows: 1. In cold winter, the fluidity of engine oil deteriorates, leading to higher fuel consumption. This is also related to temperature. At very low temperatures, the density of engine oil increases, and its fluidity decreases, especially for certain grades of oil that are inherently more viscous. 2. Poor oil fluidity hinders engine operation. To reach normal working conditions, the engine must achieve a certain operating temperature to improve oil fluidity. This prolongs the warm-up time of the engine, naturally increasing the vehicle's fuel consumption.
