If the reversing camera does not display, it may be due to the video cable clip coming loose or poor contact. Here is some relevant information about the Mercedes GLC: 1. Introduction to the Mercedes GLC: The Mercedes GLC can essentially be considered the coupe version of the GLK. The reason the Mercedes GLC was not introduced until 2016 is primarily because it was developed based on the new-generation GLK, which provides the GLC with more platform advantages. 2. Configuration information of the Mercedes GLC: The off-road animation is particularly attractive, with parameters such as gradient, steering angle, direction of travel, roll angle, throttle scale, and brake intensity all displayed in real-time on the central display. The GLC offers a relatively rich set of comfort and safety features.

There could be several reasons why the Mercedes-Benz GLC reversing camera isn't displaying. I suggest starting with simple checks. The camera being covered by mud or dust is a common issue, especially after rainy days or driving on dusty roads. Loose or broken wiring connections aren't uncommon either, particularly near the trunk area which is prone to vibration impacts. Blown fuses frequently occur too - check if the corresponding fuse in the fuse box has melted. When the system software acts up, try restarting the infotainment screen or the engine. If the camera itself is damaged or radar sensors malfunction, replacement may be needed. Troubleshoot step by step: first clean the external camera, then verify the fuse condition. If that doesn't work, take it to the dealership for thorough diagnostics. Regular post-drive inspections and keeping the camera area clean can prevent many issues.

Does a car need brake maintenance?

Under normal circumstances, a car does require brake maintenance. Braking, also known as deceleration, refers to the action of stopping or reducing the speed of a running locomotive, vehicle, or other transportation tools or machinery. The purpose of braking is to slow down and stop the vehicle, and its principle involves the energy conversion process of transforming the vehicle's kinetic energy into thermal energy through friction. Maintenance intervals for the braking system: approximately 30,000 kilometers for disc front wheels, around 60,000 kilometers for disc rear wheels, and about 100,000 kilometers for drum brakes. The braking system is crucial for safety, and the replacement cycle is only a rough reference. The key factor is the thickness, and early inspection is the safest approach. Brake fluid should be replaced after approximately 60,000 kilometers of driving. The necessity of brake maintenance: Brake fluid has strong water absorption properties. After one year of a new car's operation, the brake fluid absorbs about 2% water, and the water content can reach 3% after 18 months. This amount of water is sufficient to lower the boiling point of the brake fluid by 25%. The lower the boiling point of the brake fluid, the more prone it is to forming bubbles, leading to vapor lock, which can cause brake failure or even complete loss of function. Additionally, the braking system is highly affected by the working environment. Once problems arise, the car can become extremely dangerous and uncontrollable. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the surface attachments and sludge from the braking system, enhance the lubrication of the wheel cylinders and guide pins, and eliminate abnormal brake noises to ensure driving safety.

What does it mean when the EPC light on the car is on?

The EPC indicator light can illuminate in two states: during power-on self-test and under other circumstances. The power-on self-test is an indication that the vehicle is monitoring the status of all sensors before driving. Generally, if the engine is not started after power-on, the light will turn off by itself after about 3 seconds. If the EPC light remains on under other circumstances or does not turn off for a long time after the vehicle is started, the main causes for the EPC light staying on include faults in the engine intake system, throttle valve issues, fuel system problems, engine malfunctions, ECU control unit failures, and brake light defects. Below is a detailed introduction to the reasons for the EPC light illuminating under other circumstances: Engine intake system fault: When the engine intake is not smooth or the intake volume is insufficient, the EPC light will prompt. You can check the engine intake system to identify the problem. Throttle valve fault: Carbon buildup is a common issue with the throttle valve. Additionally, dirt on the main body can also affect intake, causing the indicator light to illuminate. You can clean the throttle valve and remove carbon deposits. Fuel system fault: Examples include substandard fuel, fuel deterioration, or poor fuel atomization. You can choose the appropriate fuel grade. Engine fault: Insufficient engine pressure or issues with the intake valve and other power system components can also trigger the EPC light. You can inspect the engine to troubleshoot the problem. ECU control unit fault: For instance, interference with the vehicle computer signals or false alarms from the vehicle computer. You can reprogram the ECU-related data. Brake light fault: If the brake light does not illuminate, the brake switch fails, or there are issues with the brake circuit. You can inspect the brake system. If the EPC indicator light comes on, the owner can first try turning off the engine and restarting it to see if the EPC light remains on. If it does not illuminate again, there may be no issue, possibly due to the EPC light being affected. If the EPC light stays on or frequently illuminates, it is necessary to drive to the nearest vehicle service point for professional assistance in troubleshooting and eliminating potential safety hazards. The full English name of EPC is Electronic-Power-Control, which translates to electronic power control. Most people refer to it as the engine electronic stability system. The EPC system mainly includes controllers and sensors related to the power system. When the sensor data in the system is abnormal, the EPC system will take measures on the power system according to preset programs. Common EPC indicator lights generally display two colors: yellow and red. If the EPC fault light is yellow and the car can drive normally, proceed slowly to a repair point for vehicle inspection. If the EPC fault light is red, it indicates a more serious situation. You should immediately pull over and contact relevant maintenance personnel for repairs. Forcing the car to drive may directly affect the core components of the vehicle or driving safety.

How Long Do Brake Pads Last?

The service life of front brake pads is approximately 30,000-50,000 kilometers, while rear brake pads typically last 60,000-100,000 kilometers. Once severe wear is detected, immediate replacement is necessary. Below is extended information about brake pads: 1. Generally speaking, the lifespan of brake pads determines their replacement cycle. Under normal driving conditions, brake pads should be inspected every 5,000 kilometers or so. 2. Inspections should include checking remaining thickness, wear condition, whether both sides are wearing evenly, and whether they return to position properly. Any abnormalities discovered must be addressed immediately. It's important to develop the habit of regular inspections and timely maintenance.

Is It Normal for the Four Wheels to Have Inconsistent Tire Pressure?

It is not necessarily normal for the four tires to have different pressures. While it's impossible for the tire pressures of all four wheels to remain exactly the same, the difference between the front and rear tires should not be too significant. Generally, a difference of around 0.1 bar is considered normal. Tire pressure monitoring involves real-time automatic monitoring of tire pressure while driving, alerting the driver to leaks or low pressure to ensure driving safety. There are three commonly used methods for tire pressure monitoring: Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: This system uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure data is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the pressure readings for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver if the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: When the pressure in a tire decreases, the vehicle's weight causes the rolling radius of that tire to become smaller, resulting in a faster rotation speed compared to the other wheels. By comparing the differences in rotation speeds between tires, the system monitors tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure. Introduction to Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): This system combines the advantages of both direct and indirect systems. It equips two diagonally opposite tires with direct sensors and includes a four-wheel indirect system. Compared to a full direct system, this hybrid approach reduces costs and overcomes the limitation of indirect systems, which cannot detect low pressure in multiple tires simultaneously. However, it still cannot provide real-time pressure data for all four tires as effectively as a full direct system.
