What is the use of the automatic brake hold system?

The main function of the brake hold system is that when encountering situations like red lights during driving that require a short stop, AUTOH will automatically brake the wheels after the vehicle comes to a complete stop to prevent rolling. The following are specific causes of different failures in the parking brake: 1. Abnormal noise: If you hear a knocking sound from the parking brake while driving, stop and check whether the fixing screws, control lever, and fixing pins are loose, and adjust or repair them in time. 2. Parking brake control lever cannot be fixed: When using the parking brake, if the control lever cannot be fixed in the braking position, first release the lever head and check whether the lever is bent, stuck, or the spring is broken. 3. Parking brake failure: To determine the cause of this failure, check whether it is due to excessive clearance between the friction plate and the brake drum, oil contamination or severe wear on the friction plate and brake drum, exposed rivets, surface hardening, etc.

What is the difference between one and a half turns and full lock?

The following introduces the difference between one and a half turns and full lock: 1. Operation method: Hold the steering wheel at the 45-degree position in the upper left corner with your left hand, release your right hand, and turn the left hand clockwise to the 45-degree position in the lower right corner. The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and transmit it to the steering shaft. It consists of a skeleton, foam, and the main driver airbag DAB with corresponding installation clips or screw holes. The steering wheel is connected to the steering shaft through splines, converting the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and transmitting it to the steering shaft. 2. Number of turns: The number of turns the steering wheel can rotate is determined by the transmission ratio of the steering system. A larger transmission ratio means more turns, lighter steering, but less sensitive vehicle control. A smaller transmission ratio allows fewer turns of the steering wheel, resulting in heavier steering, more sensitive steering response, smaller turning angles, and larger vehicle turns.
