TRC on a car stands for Traction Control System, and TRC OFF means the Traction Control System is turned off. When the TRC light is on, it is likely that the TRC button was accidentally turned off. If it wasn't turned off, it indicates that there is an issue with the Traction Control System preventing it from functioning properly. The role of the Traction Control System is to ensure the car obtains optimal traction under various driving conditions. The control device is a computer that monitors the speed of all four wheels and the steering wheel's turning angle. When the car accelerates, if the computer detects a significant speed difference between the driving wheels and non-driving wheels, it immediately determines that the driving force is too high and sends a signal to reduce the engine's fuel supply, thereby lowering the driving force and reducing the slip rate of the driving wheels.

How to Set the Horn Sound When Locking a Skoda?

Press and hold both the unlock and lock buttons on the remote key for 3 seconds until the light flashes, and the horn sound when locking will be successfully set. To set it to only flash the lights without the horn sound, press and hold both the unlock and lock buttons on the remote key for 3 seconds until the light flashes. Below are detailed instructions: 1. The horn sound when locking depends on the car model. Some models have a horn sound when locking, while others do not. 2. If the vehicle computer has a horn sound setting option, you can enable or disable it through this option. If the vehicle computer does not display this option, it can be activated via the bus system, which requires visiting a 4S shop or repair shop for setup. 3. Some models come with a horn sound feature, and the owner can manually set it. For certain models, the horn sound can be set using the car key by pressing both the unlock and lock buttons for 3 seconds until the light flashes, enabling the lights-only mode without the horn sound. 4. To restore the horn sound when locking, press and hold both the lock and unlock buttons for 3 seconds until the light flashes. 5. The horn sound when locking is produced by electromagnetic vibration. The electromagnetic coil attracts the relay's moving contact switch to close, allowing current to flow to the horn wiring. The current activates the electromagnet inside the horn, causing the diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound, hence the sound when locking the car.

As long as the size and specifications of the wheel rims match those on the registration certificate, the style can be changed. It is even permissible for all four wheel rims to have different styles. 2. Roof racks and side step boards can be installed: This new regulation mainly applies to SUV and MPV models. The height of the installed roof rack must be within 300 millimeters, and the width of the side step board must not exceed 5 centimeters beyond the side of the vehicle body. 3. Vehicle body color can be changed: The vehicle body color can be altered through painting or wrapping, but the changes must be registered with the vehicle management office within ten days. It is important to note that colors similar to those used on police cars, fire trucks, and other official vehicles are not allowed. 4. Grilles and front/rear bumpers can also be modified: The styles of grilles and front/rear bumpers can be changed. However, the installation of new grilles and bumpers must not alter the original length and width of the vehicle. The vehicle emblem cannot be changed, and the bumpers must not have any obvious protrusions, such as the so-called 'tow hooks' which are not allowed. 5. Roof racks no higher than 30cm can be installed: The new regulations state that passenger cars can install roof racks no higher than 30cm, provided that safety and stability are ensured.

Does a larger motor pulley rotate faster or a smaller one?

If we're only considering the motor's rotational speed, the size of the motor pulley (large or small) doesn't affect it—the speed remains the same. However, when it comes to the driven mechanical equipment, a larger motor pulley will result in faster equipment rotation, while a smaller motor pulley will lead to slower equipment rotation. Below are some maintenance methods for electric motors: 1. Keep the operating environment dry: The motor surface should be kept clean, and the air intake should not be obstructed by dust, fibers, etc. 2. Identify faults: If the motor's thermal protection repeatedly triggers, determine whether the fault originates from the motor itself, overloading, or the protection device's setting being too low. Only after resolving the issue should the motor be put back into operation. 3. Ensure good lubrication during operation: Generally, after about 5,000 hours of operation, the motor's grease should be replenished or replaced. If bearing overheating or grease deterioration is observed during operation, replace the grease promptly. When replacing the grease, remove the old lubricant and clean the bearing and bearing cover's oil groove with gasoline.

What does 9HAT transmission mean?

9HAT transmission is China's first P2 hybrid 9-speed hydraulic automatic transmission. Here is relevant information: 1. Comparison: Based on the 9AT, the 9HAT adds a high-power P2 hybrid motor and a C0 clutch structure for disconnecting or connecting the transmission with the engine power, enabling pure electric or hybrid driving modes for the vehicle. 2. Introduction: The transmission is a mechanism used to change the speed and torque from the engine. It can fixedly or stepwise change the transmission ratio between the output shaft and the input shaft, also known as the gearbox. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, and some vehicles also have a power take-off mechanism. Most transmission mechanisms use ordinary gear transmission, while some use planetary gear transmission. Ordinary gear transmission mechanisms generally use sliding gears and synchronizers.
