The reasons why a car air conditioner sometimes blows cold and sometimes hot include: loose wiring of the compressor; poor contact of the pressure switch; poor contact of the relay; or a faulty compressor clutch. Additional information: 1. High-temperature gas cools into liquid: When the air conditioner is first turned on, the compressor starts working, compressing the gaseous refrigerant in the system into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas, which is then sent to the condenser for cooling. After cooling, it becomes a high-temperature, high-pressure liquid, which is dried and filtered through the dryer bottle, then passes through the expansion valve and evaporator before returning to the compressor. 2. High-temperature, high-pressure liquid expands: When the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid passes through the expansion valve, it undergoes a drastic change, turning into a low-temperature, low-pressure liquid. These low-temperature, low-pressure liquids cause the temperature of the evaporator to drop rapidly, so the air blown by the air conditioner motor becomes cold after passing through the evaporator.

Is the front bumper replaced at a 4S store an original one?

4S stores replace front bumpers with original ones. A car bumper is a safety device designed to absorb and mitigate external impacts, protecting the front and rear of the vehicle body. The bumper consists of an outer panel, cushioning material, and a crossbeam. The outer panel and cushioning material are made of plastic, while the crossbeam is formed by stamping cold-rolled thin sheets into a U-shaped channel. The outer panel and cushioning material are attached to the crossbeam, which is then connected to the vehicle frame's longitudinal beams with screws. The car bumper covers most of the front and rear areas of the vehicle and serves the following purposes: 1. To absorb and cushion external impacts during collisions, providing protection for both the vehicle and its occupants; 2. To harmonize with the vehicle's overall design, offering aesthetic appeal.

What are the symptoms of a faulty car high-pressure fuel pump?

The symptoms of a faulty car high-pressure fuel pump include: 1. Severe engine shaking; 2. Weak acceleration; 3. Unstable idle speed; 4. Difficulty starting or stalling. The causes of high-pressure fuel pump damage are: 1. Improper refueling behavior; 2. Do not wait for the fuel warning light to come on before refueling, as this will shorten the pump's lifespan; 3. Too little fuel or running out of fuel can burn out or damage the pump; 4. Overfilling the fuel tank. The purpose of the high-pressure fuel pump is to serve as the power source for hydraulic devices such as jacks, headers, extruders, and ginning machines. Its function is to increase fuel pressure for high-pressure injection to achieve atomization.
