Why is the air conditioning compressor of Mercedes-Benz E200 not working?

Reasons for the air conditioning compressor of Mercedes-Benz E200 not working: Electrical system failure: Short circuit or open circuit in the circuit directly cuts off the power transmission path, preventing the electromagnetic clutch from normally controlling the working state of the compressor. Lack of refrigerant: Refrigerant and refrigeration oil are mutually soluble and circulate back to the compressor through the system. If the Freon in the refrigerant is depleted, it will lead to insufficient oil return of the refrigeration oil, reducing the lubrication effect of the compressor and causing it to seize and damage. Mechanical wear of the compressor: Long-term operation under high-speed load conditions may cause premature mechanical fatigue of compressor components, rendering it inoperative.

I once had the air conditioning compressor suddenly fail while driving a Mercedes-Benz E200, which was really frustrating. There could be several reasons: a blown fuse—it's located in the fuse box in the engine compartment, marked with the air conditioning icon; a faulty relay—the small box responsible for controlling the compressor current is prone to overheating; or the compressor itself might be broken—if it makes unusual noises when running, be cautious. If the refrigerant is insufficient, the system will automatically protect itself by preventing the compressor from working. Additionally, a short circuit in the wiring or incorrect sensor signals can also cause it to malfunction. I recommend checking the fuse yourself first and trying a new one. If that doesn’t work, don’t push it—head to a 4S shop or a reliable repair point as soon as possible for professional diagnostics. Especially during the hot summer days, pay extra attention to driving safety and don’t overlook minor issues.

What are the steps to use the auto hold function?

The use of auto hold mainly involves four steps, as follows: Step 1: Fasten the seat belt and activate the auto function while driving. Step 2: When the vehicle comes to a complete stop during driving, you can release the brake pedal. A parking indicator will appear on the instrument panel, and the vehicle will remain stationary. The gear can be kept in D or N position. Step 3: Gently press the accelerator pedal to release the brake. Step 4: Remember to shift to P position and engage the parking brake before exiting the vehicle. The function of auto hold: It serves to hold the vehicle when stopping and starting in traffic. The auto hold switch button is usually located next to the electronic parking brake and can be freely turned on or off.

What is the difference between fog lights and low beams?

The differences between fog lights and low beams mainly lie in brightness, light color, light penetration, and beam angle. Low beams have relatively low power, their beam angle is below the horizontal line, and the bulb's power is not very high. Fog lights have strong penetration and can cut through dense fog in heavy fog conditions, allowing drivers to clearly see the road ahead. The purpose of low beams is to illuminate a certain distance in front of the vehicle. Their power is relatively low, and the beam angle is below the horizontal line. Using low beams while driving has minimal impact or interference on other vehicles. However, in heavy fog, low beams with weak penetration are ineffective, making it difficult for drivers to see clearly. In such cases, fog lights are needed to compensate for the low beams' inability to penetrate heavy rain or dense fog. Fog lights have strong penetration and can cut through dense fog in heavy fog conditions, allowing drivers to clearly see the road ahead. Therefore, they are typically used in heavy fog. Their power is much higher than that of low beams, and their beam angle, brightness, and penetration are also significantly better. They are highly effective in heavy fog, but because their penetration is too strong, they can be glaring. Using fog lights in normal weather conditions can cause significant interference to drivers of vehicles ahead or behind, increasing the risk of accidents.

Where is the three-way catalytic converter located in a car?

The three-way catalytic converter is generally installed in the first bulge of the car's exhaust manifold, resembling a device similar to a canteen. It is positioned within the vehicle's exhaust system and serves as a crucial external purification device in the exhaust system. The term "three-way" in the three-way catalytic converter has two interpretations: First, it can convert the three main harmful substances produced after engine combustion into harmless substances. This converter simultaneously transforms the three primary harmful substances resulting from engine combustion into harmless materials, hence the name "three-way." The three main substances are: carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides. Second, because this converter contains three precious metals: platinum, rhodium, and palladium, it is called "three-way." These three precious metals facilitate the reaction between the three main harmful gases produced after engine combustion, ultimately forming harmless carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and water.

What is the normal tire pressure for the Atenza?

The normal tire pressure range for the Atenza is 2.4-2.5 bar. Due to seasonal factors, the tire pressure can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar in winter and reduced by 0.1 bar in summer. The Atenza's tire pressure monitoring system is an indirect type, which only alerts when the tire pressure is abnormal and does not display specific values. To check the tire pressure, first prepare a tire pressure gauge, locate the position of the factory tire pressure label, press the gauge onto the tire valve to measure and read the pressure, and remember to replace the valve cap after measurement. If the tire pressure monitoring indicator light comes on (a yellow symbol with an irregular circle, no stamp on top, four small spikes at the bottom, and an exclamation mark inside), there are generally three possible reasons: Abnormal tire pressure. The system usually alerts when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. In this case, the tires need to be checked and the pressure adjusted. The tire pressure monitoring system has not been reset. After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure reset is not performed promptly, the system will still record the previous data, causing the indicator light to come on. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor. The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation port. If the sensor is damaged during driving, it can also trigger the tire pressure warning light. For sensor damage issues, the only solution is to replace it with a new component.
