Vehicle control refers to the automotive control system, which provides car owners with a simple method to control engine start/stop, lights, windows, and locks, offering the first-time use 'ready' function. In simple terms, vehicle control has two main functions: receiving signals from various sensors and calculating corresponding data; based on the calculated data, it controls the fuel injection, ignition, idle air intake, etc., of the car engine to ensure normal operation and minimize engine emissions. Transmitting commands, the trigger signals for speed regulation come from the commands of the vehicle controller. On one hand, the body controller reflects the driver's intent, and on the other hand, it evaluates the reasonableness of the response to the driver based on safety and the operational status of the vehicle's electrical system, ultimately executing or partially executing the command. The driver's intent is expressed through the accelerator and brake pedals and transmitted to the vehicle controller. Adjusting the operational status of equipment, the specific commands given by the body controller to the motor controller include the following related to the powertrain: acceleration, deceleration, braking, and parking. The motor controller responds by altering parameters such as power current, voltage, and frequency to ensure the motor's operational status meets the controller's requirements.

What to Do When the Mercedes-Benz E260 Displays 'Add Coolant'?

Mercedes-Benz E260 displays 'Add Coolant' solution as follows: False Alarm: This is usually an issue with the liquid level sensor and its related wiring. To determine if it's a false alarm, you can only manually open the coolant cap and observe whether the actual liquid level is normal. Engine Cooling: Park the car on level ground and wait for the engine to cool down. Ignition: Put the car into ignition mode. Check Water Temperature: The cooling system is pressurized, so you can only open the radiator cap after the engine has completely cooled down. The coolant temperature gauge must display below 70 degrees Celsius, otherwise, you might get scalded by the high-temperature coolant that could spill out. Filler Cap Operation: Place a cloth over the antifreeze filler cap, turn the cap counterclockwise half a turn to release any remaining pressure. Observe Coolant: If the coolant is level with the indicator rod on the filler cap when cold or about 1.5 cm higher when hot, it indicates there is sufficient coolant in the radiator. Actual Coolant Consumption: Coolant is a mixture of various additives and distilled water. Water evaporates, so as the mileage increases, the coolant will indeed be consumed. After being prompted to 'Add Coolant,' fill it up and observe again. If the prompt reappears shortly after, it indicates that it's not normal consumption.
