The body stability control module of the Baojun 730 is installed in the glove compartment, and the module has two connectors. Principle of the Body Stability Control Module: When a car is turning, if the front wheels first reach the adhesion limit, it will cause a "drift out" phenomenon. At this time, no matter how the driver turns the steering wheel, the turning radius cannot be reduced, making it difficult to follow the track, resulting in steering failure, known as understeer. If the rear wheels first reach the adhesion limit, a "fishtail" phenomenon will occur, making the car itself unstable, and the car is quickly pulled to the side of the turn, known as oversteer. The role of the body stability control system is to control the engine power output via computer when understeer causes the vehicle to slide outward, or when oversteer causes the vehicle to cross the centerline of the road or even spin in place. It changes the braking force on one or two wheels to generate corresponding torque, eliminating understeer or oversteer phenomena and improving driving dynamic stability. The ABS system ensures vehicle stability during braking, the TRC system maintains vehicle stability during acceleration, and the VSC system keeps the vehicle stable during turns. During emergency braking, ABS prevents wheel lock-up; when wheels slip, TCS controls engine output and wheel braking to prevent wheel slip. The body stability control system works when the vehicle is turning quickly, dodging, or avoiding suddenly appearing cars or animals. It uses computer control to adjust engine output and apply braking force to any wheel (with varying degrees of braking force) to eliminate understeer or oversteer, enhancing dynamic driving stability.

I've been driving for over a decade. The body stability control module of the Baojun 730 is usually installed under the center console near the windshield, specifically behind the glove compartment area. This component is primarily responsible for monitoring wheel slippage and promptly intervening with braking to maintain vehicle stability. Its placement here is designed to avoid exposure to the high heat and vibrations from the engine compartment, and it's also less prone to accidental impacts. I remember last time when the system alarm went off, I had to check if the wiring connectors were loose—ingress of sand or moisture could cause a short circuit. I'd also advise owners against making arbitrary modifications to the electrical circuits; during oil changes, you can have the technician quickly check if the module is securely fastened. Knowing its location is crucial for quick troubleshooting when issues arise, like when the ESP light comes on—this is especially critical for highway safety, as a malfunctioning anti-skid system can lead to loss of control during turns. It's always good practice to be vigilant during routine maintenance, such as avoiding excessive water spray during car washes.

As an ordinary owner of a Baojun 730, I was curious about the location of the vehicle stability control module and eventually found it hidden above the passenger footwell near the center console. The position is quite concealed but not hard to find—just bend down and look under the dashboard to spot a small black box connected to a bunch of wires. I think the module is quite important; for example, it automatically adjusts braking during rainy and slippery conditions. If it were placed improperly, like near the engine, it might overheat and get damaged. Once at a repair shop, I heard a mechanic say that loose wiring to the module caused a warning light to come on, and simply cleaning the connectors fixed it. For daily driving, it’s advisable to keep the footwell clean and avoid blocking the heat dissipation with clutter, which can extend the module’s lifespan. Now that I know the general location, I don’t panic when issues arise—I do a quick check myself before calling a professional. Understanding this is especially helpful for new drivers, as it can save a lot of trouble.

As a former mechanic, I'm familiar with the locations of automotive components. The Body Stability Control Module of the Baojun 730 is typically mounted on a bracket behind the dashboard in the cabin, specifically beneath the steering wheel or near the right footwell. This module integrates brake and sensor data for operation, and its placement here ensures it stays away from heat sources and vibrations to maintain responsive performance. If the module becomes displaced or suffers liquid damage, it may cause dangerous skidding or loss of vehicle control. Therefore, owners should routinely maintain dry footwell conditions and inspect for signs of wire deterioration. Professional periodic diagnostics of the module's functionality are recommended for early issue prevention.

How to Identify if a Car is a Stock Vehicle When Buying?

Methods to identify if a car is a stock vehicle when buying: 1. Check the manufacturing date of the car. Every car has a nameplate near the door, which clearly indicates the manufacturing date of the vehicle. If it was manufactured within the last three months, it is considered a new car. If the time is longer, it is a stock vehicle. 2. Look at the time symbols on the car glass. These markings represent the manufacturing time of the glass. If they are inconsistent, it means one piece has been replaced. 3. Check the wear level of the tires. New tires have a layer of tire hairs when they leave the factory, which are easily worn off. When picking up the car, check if all four tires have tire hairs. 4. Use your finger to touch the inside of the exhaust pipe. If there are obvious black stains, it means the car has been driven for a while and might be a test drive vehicle. If the color is light, there is no need to worry.

What is the RPM when a new car is just started?

The RPM when a new car is just started is around 1000. Here is some information about the RPM when a new car is just started: 1. Engine: At the moment of engine start-up, the RPM is approximately around 1000. The resistance during start-up varies depending on the technical condition of the engine. A new engine that hasn't undergone proper break-in has relatively "tighter" fits between moving parts, resulting in greater start-up resistance. 2. RPM difference: Drivers can hardly distinguish the RPM difference between a new car and a well-broken-in car during start-up, as the gap is small unless precise measurements are taken. The starting performance of a car engine is evaluated based on the start-up time. If it can start successfully within 5 seconds, it is considered to have good starting performance.

Can an automatic transmission license deduct points from a manual transmission license?

An automatic transmission license cannot deduct points from a manual transmission license. Points deduction knowledge: 1. The relationship between C2 and C1 in points deduction: The automatic transmission driver's license is C2, while the manual transmission is C1. The level is insufficient, so it cannot help deduct points for a C1 driver's license; however, C1 can help deduct points for C2, meaning a higher-level license can deduct points for a lower-level one, but not vice versa. 2. Documents required for points deduction: The person deducting points must present their driver's license, ID card, and the violating vehicle's registration certificate. For commercial vehicles, a professional qualification certificate is also required. 3. Points deduction notice: If a vehicle is detained by traffic police due to a traffic violation, the violator must present the vehicle detention certificate, their driver's license, and the vehicle's registration certificate within 15 days to the law enforcement station for processing.

What Are the Reasons for Clutch Noise in Cars?

There are two main reasons for clutch noise. Below is a detailed explanation of the two causes of clutch noise: 1. Release Bearing Noise: The release bearing is a ball bearing that disengages power during gear shifting. It endures certain pressure during the clutch engagement and disengagement process, which may lead to severe wear over time. Additionally, since the clutch is located between the engine and the transmission, it operates under high temperatures, causing the grease in the release bearing to gradually deplete. When the grease is insufficient, dry friction occurs between the balls and the bearing housing, resulting in clutch noise. 2. Clutch Disc and Pressure Plate Bonding Due to Rust: When temperatures are high, the bonding of the clutch disc and pressure plate due to rust becomes more noticeable. However, this phenomenon is relatively rare. It is the result of forced separation between the clutch disc and pressure plate. In cases of severe rust, forced separation becomes difficult, and the transmission must be disassembled for repair.

What to Do If You Forget to Pay for Roadside Parking?

If you forget to pay for roadside parking, you need to make the payment as soon as possible for the following reasons: 1. Violation: Parking in a marked roadside parking space without paying is considered a violation. 2. Late fees: If the fine is not paid within 15 days of the "Penalty Decision Notice" being issued, a daily late fee of 3% will be charged, with the total late fee not exceeding double the original fine. If you find the charges for public parking spaces marked with solid white lines unreasonable, you can ask the parking attendant to show their work permit and provide an official invoice, and point out the "P" sign and the price display board. You should actively report the following situations: 1. Private negotiation with car owners and embezzlement of parking fees. 2. Tampering with electronic payment terminals (POS machines) to embezzle parking fees. 3. Undercharging for overdue payments or maliciously marking vehicles as unpaid to withhold fees paid by car owners. 4. Working under the influence of alcohol, leaving the post without reason, or unqualified personnel substituting for the job. 5. Collaborating or allowing others to use physical barriers to occupy public parking spaces. 6. Assigning road parking spaces to individuals or other organizations for management and profit-making.

Why is the car engine light on?

Car engine light is on due to unstable operating conditions. Here are some introductions about car engines: 1. Fault: Difficulty starting when the engine is cold or unstable operating conditions after starting, may be accompanied by stalling or the pollution light turning on. Sometimes after restarting, the engine vibration and pollution light disappear, and sometimes after restarting, the engine vibration is normal but the pollution light remains on. 2. Principle: The process of converting chemical energy into mechanical energy is a reaction of thermal energy. When the engine starts cold, the cylinder walls and other components are cold metal parts. As the engine operates, the fuel injected by the injector into the cylinder atomizes. The atomized mixture condenses on the cold cylinder walls, which is not conducive to engine ignition and combustion.
