OBD stands for On-Board Diagnostics, which is an automated system used to monitor the engine's operating status and the working condition of the exhaust treatment system in real-time. The systems and components monitored by OBD in real-time include: EGR, engine, particulate filter, catalytic converter, oxygen sensor, emission control system, fuel system, among others. The working principle of OBD is that when an emission fault occurs, the ECU records the fault information and related codes, and notifies the driver by illuminating the fault light or check engine warning light. Maintenance personnel can quickly locate the fault by reading the fault codes with the vehicle's original factory-specific instrument, facilitating vehicle repairs and reducing the time required for manual diagnosis.

How to Bleed Air from a Three-Wheeler's Hydraulic Brakes?

The brake caliper has a bleeder screw. It requires two people to operate. After starting the vehicle, one person gently presses the brake pedal while the other slowly loosens the bleeder screw to release the brake fluid. The person pressing the brake must keep the pedal depressed without lifting their foot. When the pedal can no longer be pressed down, they should inform the person releasing the fluid. At this point, the bleeder screw should be tightened, and only then can the brake pedal be released.

What to Do If Your Car Tire Gets Punctured on the Highway?

Heavy braking can cause the vehicle to become unstable and lose control, so you should not immediately step on the brake after a tire blowout. Do not immediately release your foot from the accelerator pedal. It is recommended to maintain the throttle for a while before slowly releasing it. After stabilizing the vehicle's movement, gradually bring the car from idle to a complete stop. Use engine braking if necessary. Once the speed has decreased, gently apply the brakes, turn on the turn signal, and move out of the driving lane.
