Why Can Cooling Still Occur Without Turning on the AC?

There are several reasons why cooling can still occur without turning on the AC: Reason 1: It may be caused by a broken compressor clutch. If the compressor clutch is damaged, the clutch will remain engaged continuously, so the air will cool regardless of whether the AC button is pressed. Solution: It is necessary to visit a professional repair shop or 4S store to inspect the compressor clutch. If the clutch is broken, this component needs to be replaced, and the entire compressor may also need replacement. Reason 2: It may be due to the low temperature of the internal evaporator. Water vapor may condense into ice near the evaporator. When the external circulation is turned on, air flows through the evaporator, absorbs heat, and then blows into the cabin, resulting in cold air. Solution: As the ice on the evaporator melts and the temperature of the evaporator rises, the cold air will gradually turn into normal-temperature air. The car AC switch controls the compressor when the air conditioning is cooling. This function is divided into manual and automatic air conditioning systems. Both manual and automatic air conditioning systems have an AC button. For automatic air conditioning, simply setting the desired temperature allows the system to automatically select and open or close different air vents based on light sensors and multiple interior temperature sensors, automatically adjust airflow, and turn on as needed.

What is the speed measurement principle of a sedan?

Automobile speed measurement generally uses radar to measure speed. Its principle is to calculate the frequency shift of the received reflected wave to determine the moving speed of the measured object. In addition, there are other methods for automobile speed measurement, such as loop speed measurement, video speed measurement, microwave radar speed measurement, and acoustic speed measurement. Loop speed measurement: Loop speed measurement uses induction loops buried underground in the road surface to measure speed. This method is relatively accurate but requires significant construction work. Once the road surface is altered, the loops need to be re-buried. Video speed measurement: Video speed measurement involves computer analysis of captured images to determine the vehicle's travel route and behavior process, thereby capturing images of traffic violations. This method is not limited by road conditions and is relatively easy to install, but it is greatly affected by weather. Microwave radar speed measurement: Microwave radar works in conjunction with high-speed cameras to quickly capture images of violating vehicles and uses high-speed shutters for violation evidence collection. Its advantage is the ability to capture images of high-speed vehicles, typically used on highways. Acoustic speed measurement: Acoustic speed measurement involves emitting ultrasonic waves from an ultrasonic transmitter and determining the distance based on the time difference when the receiver detects the ultrasonic waves. This method has higher costs and is not suitable for harsh environments.

What Are the Types of Shock Absorbers?

From the perspective of materials, shock absorbers are mainly divided into hydraulic and pneumatic types. Structurally, they can be categorized into single-tube and double-tube types. Further classifications include single-tube pneumatic shock absorbers, double-tube hydraulic shock absorbers, and double-tube oil-gas shock absorbers. Hydraulic Shock Absorbers: Hydraulic shock absorbers are widely used in automotive suspension systems. Their working principle involves the relative reciprocating motion between the frame and the axle, causing the piston to move back and forth within the cylinder of the shock absorber. During this process, the oil inside the shock absorber repeatedly flows from one chamber to another through narrow orifices. The friction between the liquid and the inner walls, as well as among the liquid molecules, creates a damping force that counteracts vibrations. Pneumatic Shock Absorbers: Pneumatic shock absorbers are a new type developed since the 1960s. Their structural feature includes a floating piston installed at the lower part of the cylinder, forming a sealed gas chamber filled with high-pressure nitrogen between the floating piston and one end of the cylinder. The floating piston is equipped with a large-section O-ring seal, completely separating the oil and gas. The working piston has compression and extension valves that adjust the flow area based on the piston's movement speed. When the wheels move up and down, the working piston reciprocates within the oil, creating a pressure difference between the upper and lower chambers. This pressure difference forces the oil to flow back and forth by opening the compression and extension valves. The valves generate significant damping force, thereby attenuating vibrations.

What to Do If Your Driver's License Expires for Ten Days?

Bring the original ID card, a copy of the ID card, a physical examination certificate from a hospital at or above the county level, the original driver's license, and four one-inch white background photos to the vehicle management office to renew the license. Below are specific details about driver's license expiration: 1. Expired for one year: After the driver's license expires, you are not allowed to drive a motor vehicle. If the license has been expired for more than one year without renewal, the traffic management department will cancel your motor vehicle driver's license. 2. Expired for two years: If the license has been expired for more than two years, the motor vehicle driver's license will be canceled, and you can restore the normal use of the driver's license by passing the subject one exam. 3. Early renewal: You can renew your driver's license within 90 days before its expiration date.

What are the steps for cleaning the throttle body?

Throttle body cleaning steps are as follows: First, unplug the wiring harness connector near the throttle body, use a hex screwdriver to remove the fixing screws, and then take off the throttle body. Cover the intake port to prevent debris from falling into the engine. Spray cleaner on the dirt. Be careful not to spray the cleaner outside the throttle body, do not forcefully pry the internal throttle plate, and avoid damaging the adjacent throttle motor. Finally, let it dry naturally. It's best not to wipe with a cloth, as it may remove the surface lubricating coating. After reinstalling the throttle body, perform a power reset or throttle body relearn procedure.

What Should You Pay Attention to When Buying a Used Car?

When purchasing a used car, pay attention to the car's performance, structure, documentation, and appearance. The main issues are introduced as follows: Performance: Listen for any abnormal sounds, start the car, and listen to the engine noise. Structure: Check the chassis and frame for any deformation. After an accident, the frame and chassis are difficult to repair. Documentation: Documents such as the registration certificate, vehicle license, and purchase tax. Always take a test drive, whether buying a new or used car. Appearance: Inspect all corners and parts of the car for repainting, and check for wear on the tires, headlights, and bumper.
