There are several reasons why the air conditioning may not be cooling: the compressor is not engaging or is damaged; the air conditioning system has insufficient or no refrigerant; the electric fan does not turn on when the air conditioning is on; the air conditioning control unit is damaged; or the pressure switch is faulty. Below is relevant information: 1. Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting: Hot air entering through gaps in the air ducts, repair the sealing strips. Poor operation of the control air doors in the heater assembly, poor adjustment of the control cables, repair the linkage or replace the heater assembly. 2. Working principle: The automotive air conditioning refrigeration system consists of a compressor, condenser, receiver-drier, expansion valve, evaporator, and blower. These components are connected by copper (or aluminum) pipes and high-pressure rubber hoses to form a sealed system. When the refrigeration system is operating, the refrigerant circulates in different states within this sealed system, with each cycle consisting of four basic processes.

What are the main components of an airbag?

The main components of an airbag are: collision sensor, control module, gas generator, and the airbag itself. The function of an airbag is to reduce the severity of injuries to occupants. Its protection principle is: 1. When a vehicle experiences a certain level of collision force, the airbag system triggers a chemical reaction similar to a small explosive detonation; 2. The airbag, hidden within the vehicle, inflates and deploys instantly, positioning itself in time before the occupant's body collides with interior components; 3. When the body comes into contact with the airbag, the airbag begins to deflate through the pores on its surface, thereby cushioning the impact and reducing the force exerted on the body.

What to Do When the Car Cigarette Lighter Has No Power?

If other electrical devices in the car are functioning normally but the cigarette lighter is not working, it indicates that the cigarette lighter has no power. When the cigarette lighter in the vehicle has no power, you can first try connecting another cigarette lighter. If it works, the issue lies with the lighter itself, and you can simply replace it. Another possible reason is a blown fuse in the cigarette lighter, which can be resolved by replacing the fuse. Here are the steps to troubleshoot a cigarette lighter with no power: 1. First, check if the cigarette lighter itself has no power. Try using the original car's cigarette lighter. If the original one also has no power, the fuse for the cigarette lighter might be blown. Visit a nearby car repair shop to replace it. 2. If the cigarette lighter has power but the car charger does not, it means the car charger is damaged and needs to be replaced. 3. Additionally, when drawing power from the cigarette lighter, if using an inverter, avoid using electrical devices exceeding 120 watts, as this could blow the cigarette lighter's fuse.
