When a car is low on engine oil, a red oil can icon will illuminate on the instrument panel. Here are additional details: Low oil level: This warning light indicates abnormal engine oil pressure, most commonly caused by insufficient oil. Immediate oil replenishment is required when this occurs. Engine overheating: There are multiple reasons for the oil warning light to activate. While oil deficiency is the most frequent cause, prolonged engine operation leading to excessive temperature rise can also trigger it by thinning the engine oil excessively. Inspecting oil system components: It's also crucial to examine oil system parts for potential damage. Compromised components in the oil system can impair proper oil circulation and, in severe cases, render the vehicle inoperable.

Where is the handbrake of Honda CR-V?

Honda CR-V has replaced the electronic handbrake with a foot brake, which is located in the front left of the left foot. The working principles of handbrake and foot brake are different. The foot brake forms high-pressure hydraulic oil in the brake master cylinder by stepping on the pedal, and pushes the oil pressure to drive the brake sub-pump, controlling the braking gas in the brake air bag. It needs to drive the brake linkage to make the brake caliper and brake disc rub against each other to prevent the wheel from rotating. The handbrake is purely mechanical, which directly controls the rear wheel brake shoes through the steel wire cable. When used, it can directly lock the rear wheels. The handbrake only acts on the rear wheels of the car, while the foot brake can brake all four wheels together. Honda CR-V is an SUV model produced by Dongfeng Honda Automobile Company. The body length, width and height of Honda CR-V are 4328mm, 1772mm and 1610mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2610mm.
