The reasons why the airbag light sometimes turns on and off are as follows: Problems with the airbag system: This situation is usually caused by poor contact in the connector or wiring harness. Detection method: Turn on the ignition switch and observe whether the airbag fault warning light on the instrument panel lights up. The light should stay on for 6 seconds and then turn off; if the airbag fault warning light remains on or flashes when the ignition switch is turned on, it indicates that the airbag computer has detected a fault. If the airbag fault warning light sometimes turns on after 6 seconds or remains on after turning off the ignition switch, it is likely that there is a fault in the airbag fault warning light circuit, and it should be repaired at a maintenance workshop as soon as possible. Insufficient battery voltage: This may cause the airbag fault warning light to turn on. Solution: When the battery voltage returns to normal, the airbag fault warning light will automatically turn off.

What Does Automotive Urea Mean?

Automotive urea is diesel exhaust fluid. Below are the specific details about automotive urea: Principle: The main harmful substances in exhaust gases are nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Particulate emissions can be reduced through technical means inside the engine, leaving mainly nitrogen oxides in the exhaust. Urea is injected into the exhaust after-treatment device, where it decomposes into ammonia at high temperatures. Under the action of a catalyst, the ammonia reacts with nitrogen oxides to produce harmless nitrogen and water. This device is called the SCR after-treatment system. Urea Consumption: Vehicles have a dedicated urea tank, and urea is consumed as long as the vehicle is running. Generally, about 4 liters of urea are consumed per 100 liters of diesel. Different road conditions and loads can affect the urea consumption rate.
