What is the reason for the OFF light being on?
1 Answers
The OFF light on a car mainly refers to the ESP-OFF. ESP stands for Electronic Stability Program, which is an active safety device designed to prevent the vehicle from skidding or fishtailing. The ESP is automatically enabled by default, and the OFF button is in the off state. If the OFF button is lit, it means the ESP has been turned off. There are usually several reasons for this: 1. Accidental button press: Accidentally touching the OFF button can cause it to light up. Pressing the button once briefly will re-enable the ESP. 2. Wiring fault: A short circuit or damaged wiring can affect the normal operation of the OFF button, requiring inspection and repair at a 4S shop. 3. Sensor damage: If the sensor malfunctions, the OFF button may not respond, necessitating immediate repair at a service center. 4. Electronic control unit signal error: A signal fault can cause the OFF button to fail, requiring immediate inspection and repair. 5. Low battery: When the battery is low on power, the OFF button may be difficult to activate, and the vehicle should be charged promptly.
