Why does the high-pressure gauge needle of a car air conditioner swing back and forth?

There are several reasons why the high-pressure gauge needle of a car air conditioner swings back and forth: 1. The system pressure is too high, causing the safety valve to release water. The system pressure can be reduced. 2. The safety valve is not completely closed. The safety valve can be closed. 3. The water quality is too dirty, causing blockages or damage, leading to leaks. The water used can be replaced. Here is some additional information: 1. If you find that the air conditioner is not cooling well, the airflow is weak, or it is not cooling at all, you need to check whether each component is functioning properly and whether there is a lack of refrigerant. The refrigerant must be added according to the model specified in the vehicle manual. 2. The air filter should be replaced regularly. In urban driving conditions, the air filter should be replaced every 3,000 kilometers. This not only keeps the intake system cleaner but also prevents a decrease in cooling capacity due to a clogged air filter.

Do All Cars Have a Three-Way Catalytic Converter?

Not all cars are equipped with a three-way catalytic converter. Here are the details: 1. A three-way catalytic converter is a device used in automobiles to purify exhaust emissions. It is called a three-way catalytic converter because it contains three precious metals: platinum, rhodium, and palladium, hence the name 'three-way.' 2. Its primary function in a vehicle is to oxidize and reduce the main pollutants in exhaust emissions—carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides—converting them into harmless carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water, thereby achieving purification. 3. The three-way catalytic converter is highly efficient, capable of purifying over 90% of harmful substances. 4. When a car's engine is not functioning properly or the vehicle is poorly maintained, the three-way catalytic converter can be damaged. Routine cleaning and maintenance, costing only a few hundred dollars, are usually sufficient. Replacement should only be considered if the vehicle fails its annual inspection.

Start the Engine First or Release the Handbrake First?

Be sure to press the brake pedal. The order of ignition and handbrake release has no significant impact. Below is relevant information about the handbrake: 1. Principle: The professional term for the handbrake is auxiliary brake. Unlike the main braking system, the handbrake uses a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to apply braking force to the vehicle. Prolonged use of the handbrake can cause plastic deformation of the steel cable. Since this deformation is irreversible, long-term use will reduce its effectiveness and increase the handbrake's travel distance. 2. Supporting Components: The handbrake system also includes a return spring. When the handbrake is engaged, the spring stretches; when released, the spring returns to its original length. With prolonged use, the spring may also undergo corresponding deformation.

What to Do When the Car Central Lock Won't Open?

There are several situations when the car central lock won't open: 1. If you are using the remote to open the door, the remote battery may be dead, or there may be strong signal interference nearby. The remote key usually contains a hidden mechanical key—use it instead. 2. If the mechanical key cannot open the car door, the car central lock system may be in an electronic lock state, or the door lock cylinder may be stuck due to prolonged use and cannot be turned. For the first scenario, wait for one or two hours until the lock is released and then try unlocking again. For the second scenario, you may have to resort to forceful measures, such as breaking the window to open the door, or contact a 4S shop for repairs.
