Clearing fault codes involves the following steps: 1. Clean the throttle body; 2. Check whether the throttle pedal sensor's connector is loose and whether the wiring is aged or broken, then replace or repair as necessary. Fault codes typically indicate issues with the throttle body or throttle pedal position sensor. Precautions for cleaning the throttle body include: 1. Avoid using highly corrosive cleaning agents; 2. Be gentle during cleaning to prevent damage to the coating. The method for cleaning the throttle body is as follows: 1. Remove the intake hose to expose the throttle body; 2. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, turn off the ignition switch, straighten the throttle plate, spray a small amount of carburetor cleaner into the throttle body, and then wipe it clean with a polyester cloth or high-density non-woven fabric.

What Components Make Up the ABS System?

ABS system mainly consists of three parts: sensors, electronic control unit and actuators. Its working principle is: using speed sensors to detect wheel speed, then transmitting the wheel speed signals to the microcomputer. The microcomputer controls the wheel slip rate by repeatedly reducing or increasing the braking pressure on the wheels based on the input wheel speed, maintaining wheel rotation. ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) is an automotive safety control system with advantages such as anti-skid and anti-lock functions. Modern vehicles are widely equipped with ABS, which not only maintains the braking function of conventional braking systems but also prevents wheel lock-up. This allows vehicles to maintain steering capability during braking, ensuring directional stability and preventing side-slip and deviation. Currently, ABS represents one of the most advanced braking devices with superior braking performance in automobiles.

What Type of License Plate Does a Hybrid Car Require?

Regular hybrid vehicles require blue license plates, while plug-in hybrid vehicles require new energy green license plates. Hybrid vehicles are categorized into plug-in hybrids, gasoline-electric hybrids, and range-extended hybrids. Since gasoline-electric hybrids and range-extended hybrids are not classified as new energy vehicles, they cannot benefit from new energy policies during the licensing process. A hybrid vehicle refers to a vehicle whose propulsion system consists of two or more individual drive systems that can operate simultaneously. The driving power of the vehicle is provided by one or more of these systems, depending on the actual driving conditions. The core of a hybrid vehicle lies in its hybrid power system, whose performance directly impacts the overall performance of the vehicle.

What Causes Body Vibration in a Car at High Speeds?

Reasons for body vibration in a car at high speeds: 1. If the tire pressure is too high, the vehicle will bounce more severely on bumpy roads, making the body prone to shaking at high speeds and increasing the risk of a tire blowout. 2. Severe tire wear or uneven tread surfaces can also cause body vibration when driving at high speeds. In such cases, the tires should be repaired or replaced promptly. 3. Imbalanced tire dynamics—if the wheel balancing weights shift or fall off, the tires will lose balance, leading to vibration symptoms during high-speed driving. In this scenario, the vehicle's wheel balance should be checked. 4. Incorrect four-wheel alignment—if the car's four-wheel alignment is not performed after replacing tires, issues such as driving vibration and severe tire wear may occur. In this case, the vehicle should undergo a four-wheel alignment again.

What Causes the Squeaking Sound in New Car Brakes?

Reasons for squeaking sound in new car brakes: 1. New brake pads not yet broken in. If the car is new or the brake pads have just been replaced, this situation requires a break-in period. It is normal for car brake pads to produce unusual noises during the break-in period; 2. Brake pad installation issues. If the brake pads were not properly installed during assembly, they may rub against the caliper, causing noise. In this case, a detailed inspection is necessary, and replacement of new brake pads may be required; 3. Tire friction. When turning in a rubber-surfaced parking lot, the vehicle may also produce unusual noises. This is caused by normal friction between the tires and the ground and can easily be mistaken for brake noise. This situation is normal.
