The illumination of the tire pressure monitoring light and ABS light indicates a fault in the ABS anti-lock braking system and tire pressure. The detailed reasons and solutions for the ABS and tire pressure monitoring lights being on are as follows: 1. Faulty wheel speed sensor: A computer diagnostic tool can identify which wheel speed sensor is malfunctioning. Solution: Replace the sensor. 2. ABS sensor has not been cleaned for too long: This can prevent the ABS sensor from detecting the wheel speed, triggering the ABS warning light. Solution: Clean the sensor. 3. Faulty wheel speed sensor wiring: Damaged wiring for the wheel speed sensor can also cause ABS faults. Solution: Replace the wheel speed sensor wiring harness.

At what negative tire pressure should a Porsche not be driven?

Tire pressure below 1.5bar will trigger an alarm. Therefore, this value is also a general recommendation for tires without tire pressure monitoring sensors - it's advisable not to go below this level. Normal tire pressure for regular passenger cars typically ranges between 2.1~2.8bar. Here's relevant information: 1. Underinflation: Insufficient pressure increases tire body deformation, making sidewalls prone to cracking while causing excessive flexing movement. This leads to overheating, accelerates rubber aging, causes fatigue in the cord ply, and may break the cords. It also increases the tire's contact area with the road, accelerating shoulder wear. 2. Overinflation: Excessive pressure overextends the tire cords, reducing the tire body's elasticity. This increases the vehicle's load during driving, potentially causing internal cracks or blowouts upon impact. Overinflation also accelerates tread wear and reduces resistance to punctures.

Which Button is for Cooling in a Honda Car?

First, press the AC button on the central control panel, then adjust the fan speed by turning the fan speed knob. Below is relevant information about the air conditioning system: 1. Principle of air conditioning cooling: The low-pressure vapor of the refrigerant in the cooling system is sucked in by the compressor and compressed into high-pressure vapor, which is then discharged to the condenser. The indoor air continuously circulates to lower the temperature. 2. Principle of air conditioning heating: Based on the type of heat source, car heating systems are mainly divided into two types: one uses engine coolant as the heat source, and the other uses fuel as the heat source. When the engine coolant temperature is high, the coolant flows through the heat exchanger in the heating system, exchanging heat with the air delivered by the blower. The heated air is then sent into the car through various outlets by the blower.
