Engine high temperature alarm: how to deal with it?OKX app When you are driving a car, if you hear the alarm of the engine temperature, don't panic or ignore it. This is a very serious but very common problem. High temperatures can cause various problems, including permanent damage to the engine. Here, we will discuss how to deal with the engine high-temperature alarm to ensure that your car will not be damaged unnecessarily.1. The first thing to do when parking is to stop immediately. Don't try to keep the car running, as it may exacerbate the high temperature problem and lead to more serious damage. Find a safe place to park and avoid parking while driving as much as possible. Try to choose a safe parking area to ensure that you and other vehicles are not subjected to unexpected and potential injuries. Two. Turn off the engine of the car immediately when parking. This will immediately reduce the burden on the engine and cool it down. After turning off the ignition, do not start it immediately, because it will increase the heavy load of the engine, which will aggravate the engine heating problem. Wait for a few minutes to let the car's engine cool down. 3. Open the hood. While the engine cools down, open the hood. This will help dissipate the heat in the car engine so that it can cool down faster.This is very important for car engines that emit a lot of heat. Four. The reason for adding coolant to eliminate high temperature may be due to insufficient cooling dose in the water cooling system. At this time, open the front hood of the car to see if the coolant is insufficient. If so, try to add an external coolant, add it directly to the cooling system of the car, and then start the car. If the car has a high temperature again after a period of time, it is necessary to check whether there is a leak in the cooling system. 5. Check the tank cover and tighten the drive belt. If leakage is found when checking the cooling system, you first need to check whether the tank cover is tightened. If not, try to tighten it or replace the damaged gasket. The second is to check whether the drive belt is tight or damaged. If the drive belt is loose, it will reduce the efficiency of the cooling system and cause the engine to overheat.After the modification, observe and check again whether the vehicle is normal. 6. Send it to the garage for repair. If you check your car through all the above guidelines and still hear the engine high temperature alarm, it means that the condition of your car may be more serious and has gone beyond the scope of DIY repair. At this time, you must send the car to a professional repair shop for inspection and repair. Conclusion The first aid measures for handling engine high-temperature alarms are very different from the response methods of other emergencies. If necessary, act quickly, but do not make a transitional response. Using the above guidelines, you can minimize the damage caused by overheating of the car engine and avoid more serious repairs that require higher costs. Normally, always make sure that your car is running normally and maintains it at any time to avoid overheating and other emergencies.
