Try changing the speedometer sensor

Dilshat, do you have a speed sensor?

Speed ​​sensor weak charge, check if there is such a relay

Artyom, what we saw was normal! good charge! I haven't changed the sensor yet! This is what happens to me, I can drive for a month and nothing turns off, but sometimes the steering wheel turns off every day, then someone wrote all the same symptoms, stupidly changed the speed sensor and forgot everything

Boris, look at the power wires on the EUR, there may be oxidation, a break or something else)) If replacing the Speed ​​Sensor does not help, then most likely it is cut off due to a loss of power, if the charging is normal (at least 13.5) then it means that somewhere the wires on the EUR are moping))

or the wires on the chip….which is inserted into the speed sensor…..you most likely have a broken wire there…..touch it…..

Yuri, you wrote this answer yesterday, I answered you that I replaced this chip, but I had a slightly broken wire there, but nothing helped me(

Dmitry, the charge is good! Can you tell me where to look for the power wires?

Boris, well, if you have already tried all this.....you can pay money for troubleshooting from the officials....and find the reason there.....and not here to ask several times....here mostly sensors and chips break.....and not like this what the hell happened to you......

Yuri, maybe someone had something similar, so I’ll find out!

Boris, in all the time I’ve been here I’ve never encountered such a breakdown…..the EUR itself is an expensive spare part…..and it rarely breaks down…..

Yuri, yes, I know (maybe some little thing is letting him down

Boris, speed sensor, my speedometer also worked, but the steering wheel turned off, changed the norm

Dmitry, do you still think it’s all because of the speed sensor? It’s just that my speedometer works fine and the steering wheel turns off when it wants to, they say the speed sensor is turned off along with the speedometer

Boris, it was similar, and as you write, the charging is going on, a thin wiring for excitation on the gene has oxidized, so it fucked my brain, if you clean the terminals it will suddenly give a ride.

Boris, I’m telling you, my speedometer also worked, they changed the speed sensor to a hundred, everything was ok, try it, it costs 300 rubles, it takes 5 minutes to change

The car of our time is radically different from the cars of the last century. This applies to all aspects. And one of the main features of the new car was the ease of rotation of the steering wheel. Now, even while in a stationary car, the driver can turn the steering wheel with two fingers. How is this effect achieved? This is the work of electric power steering (EPS). But sometimes it fails.

Priora

The standard Priora tidy has three different exclamation marks. To determine the malfunction and further actions, you initially need to determine what each of them means.

1. The first pointer is located at the bottom of the tachometer. The symbol is usually in a circle and beeps when turned on. If the exclamation indicator lights up, the reasons are simple - this means that the brake fluid in the system is running out. To fix the problem, it is enough to replenish the tank capacity. It is also recommended to completely check the entire line. The machine does not consume fluid on its own - there is probably a leak somewhere.
2. An exclamation mark flashes in a triangle or circle located at the top of the instrument panel. The indicator indicates that the brake force distributor device is disconnected or broken. The device causes the ABS device to turn off. In this case, it is not recommended to do anything yourself. The blocks are a complex structure that requires qualified repairs. It is necessary to understand that the car will drive without the help of electronic systems.
3. If the exclamation mark located on the bottom of the steering wheel icon is lit, the problem is hidden in the electric power steering. Usually, if the lamp is on for a long time, the car will not start. If the indicator blinks, you need to show the car to a technician.

The exclamation mark is on - what to do?

We have noticed that new topics often appear on car forums where drivers ask about the exclamation marks that are displayed on the Lada Priora panel. They rarely specify where it is lit and what is depicted on the icon. In this section we have collected a small FAQ Below are all the exclamation marks that can light up on the instrument panel of a VAZ 2170 car. The designations of these icons are as follows:

• The red exclamation mark in the circle (bottom) is lit. The indicator indicates that there is a problem with the vehicle's brake system. This is usually a low brake fluid level. Add it to the tank and, most likely, the sign will stop lighting. If this does not happen, then it is worth checking the system for damaged components. When igniting, the indicator lights up for 4 seconds and then goes off.
• The red exclamation mark in the triangle/circle (above) is lit. Modern versions use a triangle instead of a circle. The indicator tells us about defects in the operation of the brake force distributor. Use extreme caution if the light comes on while driving.
• Exclamation mark next to the steering wheel icon. When illuminated for a long time, it indicates a malfunction in the electric power steering (EPS). Like other icons, it lights up when ignited and goes out after a few seconds if the system is working properly.

Sometimes the indication is caused by faults in the electronics. Terminals are coming off, contacts are oxidized, defects in the on-board computer are a few reasons for the random appearance of icons. To avoid damaging one of the systems, check the electronics first. To do this, it is enough to dismantle the device on the Lada Priora and see if the terminals are securely seated in the sockets. If the brake system indicator lights up, first check the fluid level in the reservoir, and only then fill in new antifreeze.

Icons on the Priora dashboard

Why did the check light on the viburnum light up
? Please describe the icons on the instrument panel of the Lada Priora.

1. Tachometer. Crankshaft rotation speed. The needle must not go into the red zone. The red zone is dangerous for the engine.
2. Brake force distributor malfunction lamp. Lights up red for a few seconds when the ignition is turned on. If the lamp lights up in other cases, this may indicate a system malfunction.
3. Battery charge lamp. Lights up red when the ignition is turned on and goes out immediately after the engine starts. If it lights up even after starting the engine, this indicates that the battery charge has expired/the battery is faulty.
4. Left turn indicator. Flashes when the turn signal is on, also flashes when the hazard lights are on.
5. Speedometer. Shows the speed of the car.
6. Emergency oil pressure lamp. Lights up red when the ignition is turned on and goes out immediately after starting the engine. If the lamp is lit in any other case, this indicates low pressure in the system. Operating the car in this case is dangerous for the engine.
7. Right turn indicator. Flashes when the right turn signal or hazard warning lights are on.
8. Parking brake. Lights up red when the handbrake is applied.
9. Coolant temperature indicator. Under normal conditions, the needle is located in the middle of the scale. Engine operating temperature is 90 degrees and above to the red zone. The arrow should not fall into the red zone, which indicates engine overheating. In this case, it is prohibited to further operate the car. You can continue using the car as soon as the needle drops to normal values.
10. Fuel level indicator in the gas tank. Shows fuel level. If there is no gasoline, the fuel pump may fail.
11. Fuel reserve lamp. Lights up when there is less than 10 liters of fuel left in the tank. Also, a beep sounds.
12. Button for switching display modes and resetting the daily mileage counter. To reset the daily mileage, hold the button pressed for 3 seconds.
13. Alarm. Flashes along with turns when the emergency lights are turned on.
14. EUR malfunction icon. Lights up yellow when the ignition is turned on for a few seconds and goes off. In other cases, the lamp burning indicates a malfunction of the EUR.
15. High beam headlight lamp.
16. Lamp for turning on external lighting. Lights up when the headlights and low beam are turned on.
17. Airbag system malfunction icon. Lights up yellow for a few seconds when the ignition is turned on and goes off. If the lamp burns in any other cases, it may indicate a malfunction in the airbag system.
18. Immobilizer icon. Lights up or flashes yellow and displays the status of the immobilizer system and the vehicle's security mode. If the system is in order and the engine is allowed to start, when the ignition is turned on, the lamp flashes 1 time and goes out.
19. LCD display of on-board computer. Displays information from the on-board computer, as well as daily and total mileage.
20. Unfastened seat belt. Lights up when the ignition is turned on if the driver's seat belt is not fastened.
21. Brake system emergency lamp. Lights up red when the ignition is turned on for a few seconds and goes out. The lamp also lights up when the brake fluid level is insufficient and when a malfunction occurs in the service brake system.
22. Passenger airbag deactivation icon (optional). Lights up when the ignition is turned on.
23. ABS fault icon (optional). To check, the lamp lights up when the ignition is turned on and goes out after a few seconds or after the engine starts. If the lamp is lit, there is a malfunction in the ABS system. However, the performance of the braking system is not affected.
24. Engine fault lamp. Check Engine. To check, it lights up when the ignition is turned on and goes out after the engine starts. In other cases, the lamp is lit indicating an engine malfunction. It is not recommended to operate the car in this case.

Methods for determining EUR malfunction

The engine warning light on the Lada Granta came on

Well, of course, the first sign of a breakdown in the system is the activation of the ECU warning light on the instrument panel. Usually on a standard one, this is an icon in the shape of a steering wheel with an exclamation mark. When you turn on the ignition, it lights up for a few seconds, and then, if the computer decides that everything is in order, the light goes out. And accordingly, when a breakdown of the Priora’s electric amplifier is detected, it lights up and remains on.

So, carry out computer diagnostics, contact the ECU, get error codes with or without decoding. Even if the scanner only produces codes, it’s not scary. You can just know that faults associated with the Priora ESD begin with the symbol “C”. For example, C1013, means that the voltage in the network is low, and this is not enough for the electric amplifier.

Well, there may be several options. The most common case is the weakening or burning of one of the two power wires going to the EUR. These are red and black wires, large cross-section, included in a separate connector on the device. They are quite easy to check. It could also be a large fuse for the device, everything is clear here. Well, the third reason is a deficiency in the car’s network, for example, a weak or faulty battery or generator. In case of such a malfunction, contact a specialist, and nothing else. To an auto electrician.

“Folk” method of checking a malfunction, or “control”

Well, if the indicator does not light up, and there are doubts about the serviceability or malfunctions of the Priora ESD, or after repairs you need to do a “check,” proceed as follows: you need to turn the steering wheel without turning on the ignition. Remember the effort. And repeat the operation by starting the engine. If there are no changes, something happened to the Priora EUR!

What malfunctions exist in the Priora electric booster?

And again the same list, mechanics, electrical, electronics. Well, everything is clear with mechanics, this is a failure of shafts, connections and fittings. With this malfunction, the wheels simply will not respond to the steering wheel turning. And this problem is easiest to fix. But with other faults it is much more complicated. If the malfunctions are related to the failure of the servomotor, amplifier, or Priora itself, there is no point in thinking about repairs. It’s easier to buy a new EUR at the store and replace it yourself. Or take it to a service center and try to repair it there. If the connection with the Priora ESD ECU is lost, then this is most likely the second connector, with a trail of wires, the same is true if the unit does not receive a signal from external sensors - the crankshaft and camshaft. Yes, yes, they are also important for the operation of the device. In these cases, an inexpensive bundle of wires can be removed and repaired, or replaced.

What remains is the “brain” of the electric amplifier, and the internal position sensors of the unit’s shafts. Messing with sensors is not an option, only repair service. But the computer itself, if it malfunctions, you can buy and replace yourself.

Electric power steering

This device increases the force that is transmitted in the steering system. Simply put, you can turn the steering wheel with two fingers. Previously, VAZ models were equipped with hydraulic boosters (power steering), but starting with the Lada Kalina they were abandoned.

The EUR was developed. In terms of force transmission power, power steering is preferable, however, it has many disadvantages:

• Engine power take-off.
• Constant monitoring of the level in the tank is necessary.
• Checking oil lines.

The electric amplifier is devoid of all these disadvantages. And it is even easier to repair than power steering. But it also has its own faults.

EUR device

Main components of an electric amplifier:

1. Mechanical part.
2. Electrical component.
3. Electronic control unit (ECU) with peripherals.

The mechanical part includes the actual steering parts, connecting parts and mounting hardware. That is, the input and output shafts, bracket, nuts, bolts, studs and springs. Well, there’s also an adjustment lever for changing the angle of the steering wheel.

Electric, actually the amplifier motor itself. The most vulnerable is the electronic component. ECU and connectors with sensors.

ABS turns on randomly, the light blinks or lights up periodically

Why did the check light come on on the Lada Priora and what to do?

One of the most difficult forms of breakdowns is the constant blinking of the ABS light. This means that the anti-lock braking system sensors send incorrect signals to the computer, which, in turn, issues other incorrect commands to the vehicle's systems and modules. In such cases, many people prefer to simply turn off the anti-lock system, since unpleasant incidents may occur. For example, turning on ABS at a speed of 90 kilometers per hour with light braking can damage the chassis of the car and contribute to a complete loss of control over control. It's better to do this:

• bring the car to a service center for diagnostics, find out the reason for the chaotic operation of the equipment;
• for domestic cars equipped with a primitive anti-blocking device, it is better to immediately disable the system;
• complex designs and on-board electronic systems of foreign cars will have to be reflashed for repair;
• on some machines it will be easier to find the problem and fix it than to disable the anti-lock;
• you need to keep in mind that this particular system is not always the cause of the ABS light coming on; the problems can be different;
• During the diagnostic process, it is better to check the entire on-board electrical system and equipment.

By paying a certain amount for a car inspection, you can get the right answers to important questions. Sometimes a light that comes on on the panel can develop into a full-fledged repair of important units and components of the car, so you will have to spend a lot. But in most cases, this problem is not so expensive to solve. The cost of repair work depends, of course, on the make and model of the car, and on the price of spare parts. If an ABS sensor for a domestic car costs from 600 rubles, then a Japanese SUV will cost more than 10,000 rubles to replace one such sensor. We suggest watching a video about solving a similar problem using computer diagnostics:

Let's sum it up

As you can see, the Priora EUR itself is not a complex design, which somewhat simplifies the process of replacing individual system components. However, the active use of electronics reduces the reliability of such a system as a whole. In practice, more often than not, malfunctions of the electric power steering occur not due to mechanical breakdowns, but as a result of problems with connectors, sensors, contacts, wiring, control modules, etc.

In any case, with regard to ESD, it is necessary to start with computer diagnostics, and only then move on to an in-depth check of all system components individually.

For this reason, the power steering, regardless of type, must be periodically checked and serviced (in the case of power steering, you need to monitor the tightness and change the power steering oil; in the case of power steering, at least in-depth diagnostics should be performed). This approach makes it possible to increase the service life of the system and also avoid unexpected breakdowns of the vehicle's power steering.

Warning symbols on the visor

Now we suggest you familiarize yourself with the warning indicators on the tidy. Let's consider only the most common symbols (video published by Kirill Mukhin).

VAZ

Description of indicators and lamps on the instrument panel of the VAZ-2112

For domestic cars, where the quality of on-board wiring leaves much to be desired. The presence of exclamation marks on the dashboard is considered the norm among car enthusiasts. In this case, independently, an 8-valve carburetor or a 16-valve injector is installed under the hood. In the classic type 2105/07, the indicator indicates a brake failure or a raised handbrake. The exact value depends on the year the car was built.

For more modern versions of the type:

• 2112;
• 2114;
• 2110;
• 2115;
• 2111;
• 2112.

The indicator may indicate a malfunction in the ABS module or the electronic brake force distribution system. The second value is that the float sensor in the brake line expansion tank is acting up.

In some cases, a lit icon may draw the motorist’s attention to the dashboard, where there is another indicator

In mathematics

An exclamation point denotes a factorial:

n! = 1 × 2 × ⋯ × n. {\displaystyle n!=1\times 2\times \dots \times n.}

or subfactorial:

! n = n! ( 1 − 1 1 ! + 1 2 ! − 1 3 ! + . . . + ( − 1 ) n 1 n ! ) = {\displaystyle !n=n!\left(1-{\frac {1}{1 !}}+{\frac {1}{2!}}-{\frac {1}{3!}}+…+(-1)^{n}{\frac {1}{n!}}\ right)=}

n! ∑ k = 0 n ( − 1 ) kk ! {\displaystyle n!\sum _{k=0}^{n}{\frac {(-1)^{k}}{k!}}}

Two exclamation points ( - U+203C) mean double factorial:

n! ! = n × ( n − 2 ) × ( n − 4 ) … ; {\displaystyle n!!=n\times (n-2)\times (n-4)\dots ;}

the product ends with one for odd numbers and two for even numbers.

The existential quantifier combined with an exclamation mark ( ∃ ! {\displaystyle \exists !} ) means “exists and is unique.”

Also in mathematical logic and in recording solutions and proofs, a triple exclamation mark is used!!! denoting "contradiction".

At the same time, a combination of characters?! reads as “to be proven.”

Story

One theory of its origin is that it was the Latin word for joy ( Io

), written with the letter "I" above the letter "o".

The exclamation mark was introduced into English typography in the 15th century and was called “sign of admiration or exclamation” or “note of admiration” until the mid-17th century. In German orthography, this sign first appeared in the September Bible

in 1797.

The mark was not found on regular typewriters until the 1970s. Instead, they would type a period, backtrack one character, and then type an apostrophe.

The exclamation mark first appeared in the Catechism of Edward VI, printed in London in 1553.

Safety system

The Lada Priora has a built-in safety system that is activated in the event of a collision. This system is represented by an inflatable soft pillow that expands at the time of an accident. The Priora has 4 airbags: one for each passenger, including the driver. They operate only in the event of a sharp collision at a speed of over 20 km/h, so they never open accidentally.

The driver's airbag is located directly in the Priora's steering wheel, which can cause some difficulties when trying to remove or replace the steering wheel or its elements. If you are going to install a new steering wheel, then it is worth finding out a little about the features of the location of the cushion.

What can you check yourself if the ABS light comes on?

The first thing you can do on your own in such a situation is to go to a car wash and ask for a good wash of the rims. Often, this intensive pressure washing can clean the ABS sensors located near the brake discs. On your way to the car wash, you can perform another simple test. Accelerate to a speed of 80-90 kilometers per hour, close the windows and turn off the music. If in this driving mode you hear a slight or annoying hum in the area of ​​the wheels (front or rear), the likely cause of the light is a failure of the wheel bearing. There are several other things you can do:

• inspect the fuse box and replace the module that is responsible for the operation of the anti-lock braking system;
• if possible, read the diagnostic error code and read about it on the forums;
• to a specialist, describing your situation, and then try to correct the error yourself;
• get to the ABS sensors yourself by jacking up the car and removing the wheels to check their cleanliness;
• inspect the electronic control unit located under the hood, check that there is no liquid in it or on it;
• the best solution is to go to a service station and pay for diagnostics of the car's anti-lock braking and electrical systems.

The last step will definitely be the most correct, since you will receive a clear answer to your questions, you will be able to determine the repair budget and the presence of serious problems. This is the only way to completely get rid of problems with the diagnostic system light on and other unusual behavior of the car. It is enough just to connect computer diagnostics with an advanced program and test the car for possible errors. Within a few minutes you will receive the necessary information and can begin to fix the problem yourself or professionally.

Device firmware

If a hard reset does not help, a complete software replacement is required. But there is a formality here: the firmware will only help if the “USB Debugging” function has been enabled in the device settings. This method is quite risky and the slightest violation of the instructions can lead to damage to the device.

Here it’s worth thinking about: should you try to restore the device yourself or trust the professionals? But if you decide to flash the gadget yourself, you should carefully study all the available information on this issue. Models from different manufacturers have significant differences and features regarding software changes.

In general, the process of replacing software looks like this: download the file with the firmware, study installation information, read reviews about this firmware version. Next, the file should be unpacked into the root directory of drive C and, if necessary, install drivers for the gadget. After this, the device must be turned off and using a key combination (usually a combination of the power button and volume up) switched to firmware mode. Then you should connect the device via cable to the computer and follow further instructions of the program. At the end of the process, you must perform a hard reset using the engineering menu.

Is your Android smartphone malfunctioning? Bring it to us!

If the phone screen shows an exclamation mark and the green android (operating system symbol) is down, this means that the operating system of your device is down.

Basic error codes

Using the built-in controller, the car enthusiast can identify the main Priora error codes on the instrument panel independently. For this purpose, you should first activate the testing option. And then perform a series of sequential actions.

1. Turn off the Priora's ignition. Activate the reset kilometer button for the current day.
2. Press the button and turn on the ignition again.
3. All indicators should light up and the arrows should begin to move towards the maximum values.
4. Press the function selection key to select the desired one. And information about the presence or absence of problems appears on the screen.

All information is reset by pressing the mileage reset button for a few seconds.

AirBag fired: repair or replacement

After the passive safety system is activated, the airbags and sensors must be replaced. The AirBag cannot be repaired. The cost of such a replacement is high because the elements are supplied only assembled. Not everyone can afford to buy new spare parts. Therefore, car owners often turn to a car interior reupholstery workshop. The company's specialists restore the steering wheel trim and panel. This method is cheaper, but the safety of vehicle operation is reduced several times. The choice is up to the car owner.

The front panel and steering pad of the car before restoration

Panel and trim after work to restore integrity

It is not difficult to remove the airbag on a Lada Priora or Toyota Corolla with your own hands. You don't need a special tool for this. But problems may arise with the Smart baby. Also remember that the pillow cannot be repaired. You can restore the plastic cover or install a dummy plug that does not contain a gas generator with a squib. This approach will return the interior to a presentable appearance and save a considerable amount, but will reduce safety when driving a car.

Fuse box

The weak link of the electric power steering on Kalina is the fuse box; if something doesn’t work, it’s worth checking them. To get to them, you need to open the dashboard, to the left of the steering wheel. To do this, pull the top part towards you and the latch will open.

Check if the fuse is working, if it fails, replace it. It is very easy to check, check the integrity of the thread inside the fuse. Changing a 50 amp relay to a 30 amp one will also help.

Newer versions of Kalina are equipped with electric amplifiers from Hyundai, which has a positive effect on its reliability. However, there are still thousands of cars with the domestic version, which malfunctions and breaks down from time to time. Now it will be easier for you to repair the electric power steering on Kalina yourself. The main thing to remember is that not every amplifier shutdown is a breakdown. And you can find the problem yourself and fix it, but somewhere you will have to go to a service center.

• How to determine that the EUR needs repair
• Main malfunctions of electric power steering and their causes
• How to repair the EUR yourself
• EUR for Lada Priora: faults and solutions
• Operating rules for electric power steering, extending the life of the power steering

One of the most problematic areas of the Lada Priora is the electric power steering. That is why repairing electric power steering is a common problem faced by Priora owners. If you find that the EUR on the Priora does not work, then immediately contact a specialist or do the repairs yourself. Most often, the electric power steering of the Priora has two causes of malfunction.

How to determine that the EUR needs repair

The electric booster on the Priora does not work very often. It refuses to work on both new and used cars.

If a problem occurs with the electric power steering, a yellow button on the dashboard lights up, with a steering wheel with an exclamation mark on it. This button notifies you of malfunctions or failure of the electric power steering.

You can drive the car without the help of an electric booster. To do this, you just need to pull out the power steering fuse, which is located to the left of the steering wheel. Malfunctions of the EUR on a Priora should not scare you, since this malfunction can be eliminated even on your own.

Main malfunctions of electric power steering and their causes

The electric power steering on a Priora fails for the following reasons:

1.When the ignition is turned on, the ESD does not undergo self-monitoring and turns itself off so as not to interfere with the driver and not create an emergency situation on the road. In this case, repairs will be expensive.

2. The electric power steering on the Priora does not work due to a malfunction of the speed sensor. The EUR scans the vehicle's speed from the speedometer, which receives data from the speed sensor. When a sensor breaks down, it begins to provide incorrect information. Then the EUR turns off spontaneously, since it does not know the exact speed of the car. In this case, repair of the electric amplifier is carried out by replacing the sensor.

If the electric power steering on a Priora does not work, a flashing error on the dashboard will immediately let you know.

How to repair the EUR yourself

The electric power steering of the Priora has several causes of malfunction and one way to solve them. For repair you will need:

1. Head for 8 and 13 mm
2. Ratchet or crank
3. Extension
4. Hammer
5. Chisel

Removal and installation

This is not such a complicated procedure as it might seem. And it even requires very few tools:

1. Socket wrench for 8.
2. A socket with a knob, or a 13mm socket wrench.
3. Figured (phillips) screwdriver.

And nothing more than the ability to use them. This is provided that the steering wheel itself has already been removed, which is a different story.

Well, now go ahead. Remove the plastic covers from the steering column by unscrewing 2 screws and unfastening 2 fasteners. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the four bolts and separate the lower part of the lining. Now the lock and the “helicopter” - the turn switches and wipers - are in the way. First of all, pressing the antennae on the connectors, disconnect all the wires. Then, using a size 8 wrench, loosen the clamp that attaches these devices, after which they will freely come off the shaft casing.

Disconnect the two connectors from the ESD ECU. Remove the plastic cover from the special pin.

Do not unscrew the lower nuts completely, but turn them a few turns with a number 13 wrench. But pull out the coupling bolt of the intermediate shaft hinges completely, unscrewing its nut by 13. Well, there you go. Having unscrewed all the fastening nuts, you can remove the faulty Priora EUR. Using a 13 key, release the lower shaft of the device from the splined joint. OK it's all over Now. You can try to fix the malfunctions described above yourself, take it to a workshop, or simply install a new unit on your Priora, proceeding in the reverse order.

Useful video on general repair of Priora electric power steering:

Tachometer, speedometer, on-board computer indicators, light bulbs - all these components are located on the Lada instrument panel. The “tidy” is designed to display the current state of various Lada Priora systems. An experienced motorist will immediately notice that one of the components requires repair; a certain icon will inform him about this. If you are a novice driver, then it will be useful for you to study the Lada Priora dashboard. This material provides a detailed description of each element of the tidy.

Warning icons on the panel

steering wheel icon

Can light up in two colors. If the yellow steering wheel is on, then adaptation is required, and when a red image of the steering wheel with an exclamation mark appears, you should already be concerned about the failure of the power steering or power steering system. When the red steering wheel lights up, your steering wheel will probably become very difficult to turn.

As a rule, it blinks if the car is closed; in this case, the indicator of a red car with a white key signals the operation of the anti-theft system. But there are 3 main reasons if the immo light is constantly on: it is not activated, if the tag on the key is not read or the anti-theft system is faulty.

It lights up not only when the handbrake lever is activated (raised), but also in cases where the brake pads are worn out or need refilling. On a car with an electronic handbrake, the parking brake light may come on due to a glitch in the limit switch or sensor.

It has several options and depending on which one is on, draw conclusions about the problem accordingly. One red lamp with a thermometer scale indicates an increased temperature in the engine cooling system, but a yellow expansion tank with waves indicates a low coolant level in the system. But it is worth considering that the coolant lamp does not always light up at a low level; perhaps there is simply a glitch in the sensor or float in the expansion tank.

Indicates a low fluid level in the windshield washer expansion tank. Such an indicator lights up not only when the level actually decreases, but also if the level sensor is clogged (the sensor contacts become coated due to poor-quality liquid), giving a false signal. On some vehicles, the level sensor is triggered when the washer fluid does not meet specifications.

– this is an indicator of the Anti-Spin Regulation system. The electronic unit of this system works in tandem with ABS sensors. When such a light is constantly on, it means the ASR is not working. On different cars, such an icon may look different, but often in the form of an exclamation mark in a triangle with an arrow around it or the inscription itself, or in the form of a car on a slippery road.

According to information from the manual, it indicates a malfunction in the exhaust gas purification system, but, as a rule, such a light starts to light after poor refueling or the presence of an error in the sensor. The system registers misfires of the mixture, as a result of which the content of harmful substances in the exhaust gases increases and, as a result, the “exhaust gases” light comes on on the dashboard. The problem is not critical, but diagnostics are worth doing to find out the cause.

Greetings. The same problem occurs exactly at 110 - 120 km per hour and on a certain section of the road. I don’t worry anymore)

The reason for the beating at speeds of 100-120 is definitely a problem with the wheels (rims or tires), and all because the rack is attached to the shield, which is a snot anyway. Therefore, in order to get rid of runout, you need to be sure that the disk is not even, the tires must also be of high quality, this will be visible when balancing, there are some wheels that do not require weights at all. The balancing machine may also be poorly calibrated or worn out.

I agreed with my brother to change the wheels from his 12th, at these speeds everything is smooth, if it goes wrong I don’t know what to do, all the chassis are waving their arms

I have this too, and so do many of my friends, and new ones at that, so this is probably the norm for these cars.

and after 120 km it goes away? if everything is so good with you?! then this is just some kind of miracle) maybe there is some kind of jamb in the rack that only appears at high speed?! Also look at the steering column! and stretch the entire chassis...

It was from 100-120 and back, when braking harder, that the Hodovka was pulled 10 tons km back,

If it's a new car, what should I think? to the official!

I’m not under warranty, I changed the oil myself 2 times, although according to the regulations it was necessary once, I don’t want to do that))

It was such crap. The suspension was all perfect, the brake discs too, the tires were fine, the discs too, the hubs - in general everything was fine, but the vibration remained at 110 km/h +-10 km. I accidentally came across a forum where a guy calculated all the vibration and came to the conclusion that a 0.5mm misalignment of the disk relative to the hub leads to vibration at a speed of 110 km/h +/-. I decided to center the disk relative to the hub. I took an aluminum beer can (I couldn’t think of anything else, a turner won’t make such thin centering rings) and cut out a strip 2 cm wide and a length equal to the circumference of the hub seat. He put the wheel on, baited it and, rotating the wheel, inserted an aluminum strip into the gap between the central hole of the disk and the centering lug of the hub. I inserted it tightly, with effort - it didn’t fit well, I helped with a screwdriver (pushed the strip). After inserting the strip, tightened the wheel. I didn’t go to the track right away, but at the end, because... I didn’t believe that it would help, but did it more for the sake of reassurance. And... I didn’t believe it - the vibration was completely gone. And I, a fool, searched for the reason for 3 years, and in the end, unable to find it, I gave up on it and drove like this for several years, thinking that it was a design feature. So it might come in handy.

Thank you, I’ll try to do this, I saw for myself that the fit between the central hole and the hub is not quite even, although you can see if you look closely it’s somewhere around 1 mm, but how did you connect the cutout from the can to make a circle?

I didn’t connect it, I just cut the length so that the minimum gap remained - fortunately there were a lot of cans)). I have about 1 to 3 mm, I don’t think it’s critical. most importantly, the vibrations have disappeared)) by the way, it’s easier to insert it this way even when it’s not connected to a ring - you just spin the wheel and little by little push the strip into the gap. several revolutions of the wheel until it stops.

Thank you very much, it happened to me in my last Priora too, I just didn’t do it, now I understand that the idea is correct, I’ll definitely try it, did you have a beat when braking at these speeds? It happens to me that it hits and doesn’t hit, but more often it hits

What icons on the car dashboard mean that you need to stop quickly?

We all drivers know that today's cars have become smarter, more technologically advanced and more complex. So, in recent years, many strange icons and various inscriptions have appeared on the dashboard of cars, many of which mean that some kind of trouble has happened to your car. Meanwhile, most of all motorists often simply ignore these various warning icons on the car’s dashboard. But in vain, since such neglect often leads to expensive repairs. Here, dear friends, are the three most dangerous warnings that light up on the dashboard, which signal the driver to stop immediately and which you should remember for yourself.

Many car owners, of course, know about the most famous “Check ENGINE” icon, which warns them of problems with the engine. Naturally, many drivers believe that this is the most important indicator on the car dashboard.

Moreover, because of this, some motorists believe that all other warnings on the dashboard are not so important. But this is far from true, gentlemen. The point is that the “Check Engine” icon may light up and not because of particularly large problems, which do not require the driver to stop immediately. Moreover, usually, when CHECK ENGINE lights up on the dashboard, the engine control unit switches it to emergency mode, which prevents damage to this power unit if a problem occurs.

Unfortunately, many car enthusiasts forget that in addition to the “Check Engine” indication on the dashboard, there are also a lot of other different warnings, when they appear they need to stop as soon as possible.

Here's an example. We recently spoke with a motor mechanic who works in a large technical center; he told us an instructive story about a car owner whose expensive engine failed in his car. And do you know, friends, who is to blame for this? You probably already guessed it. Of course, the car owner himself, who, having seen the burning oil can icon on the dashboard, thought to himself that this was a regular reminder of the scheduled engine oil change. As a result, having thus ignored the system warning about low oil pressure, the car owner personally “killed” the still quite old engine.

So, remember, friends, never ignore any warning message or illuminated icon that appears on your car’s dashboard. Also, you should not guess the purpose of this or that symbol, much less decipher the given meaning of the inscription that appears. You should know exactly what this or that symbol on the dashboard means. If you don’t know, learn the equipment by referring to the car’s operating manual or, as a last resort, look for information on the Internet. This kind of “guessing” of symbols on the device can be much worse for you than simply ignoring warnings. After all, not knowing the purpose of such icons on the dashboard is about the same as trying to fix this problem without knowing how to do it.

However, today let us not talk to you about the most common warning related to engine operation, that is, about the “Check Engine”, since we have already written many useful articles about this. Today we invite you to consider, friends, not very common warnings that can still sometimes appear on the dashboard of cars, which are nevertheless considered very important for the car owners themselves, since ignoring them can result in big problems for the driver in the future.

And so, gentlemen, let's get started. If you see the following warning signs on your vehicle's dashboard, you should stop immediately. Always remember that not all warning signs on the dashboard indicate danger. Usually they are all divided by priority. Therefore, you need to study the manual for your car in order to know in the future which signals you should never ignore. Today we will focus on three symbols-icons, the appearance of which always indicates serious problems in the car.

Premiere of the Lada Granta Liftback

N

Russian factories often delight us with premieres,

so let's go to Udmurtia to see the Lada Granta Liftback, which is assembled at the IzhAvto plant. The Lada Granta Liftback is offered with three power units: the first is a 1.6-liter eight-valve four-cylinder petrol engine with an output of 87 hp.

, aggregated with a five-speed manual transmission, the second is a “Prior” 16-valve 1.6-liter engine with a capacity of 98 hp, which is offered only with a Jatco four-speed automatic transmission, and the third is the same 1.6-liter engine from Priora, but modernized, which produces 106 hp.

— it can only be combined with a five-speed manual transmission. All engines are supplied with a lightweight connecting rod and piston group with a graphitized piston skirt, which eliminates rubbing during cold starts.

All liftbacks produced in Izhevsk are equipped with a Kaluga electric power steering, which differs significantly from the Korean Mando electric power steering - it is more compact and more efficient, because the rotor on the Kaluga electric power steering is mounted directly on the steering shaft.

One of the car's signature advantages is its high ground clearance - an honest 180 mm, which decreases to 165 mm under load. All cars are currently offered in five colors with outlandish names: red "Magma", "White Cloud", dark blue "Odyssey", silver with light sandy shades of Riesling and Black Truffle. Truffle will surely become the favorite color of Moscow Spartak.

Equipment "Standard-21911-40-710

The basic version of the liftback with an 8-valve engine, comes with a manual gearbox with a VAZ-2181 cable drive, a driver's airbag, unpainted side mirrors and door handles, an instrument cluster without an on-board computer, ISOFIX child seat mounts, headlights with DRLs, an immobilizer, one-piece a rear seat back without head restraints, a headliner without handrails, a non-power steering with a gear speed of 4.02, a tilt-adjustable steering column, a central locking system, a single key for the ignition and doors, audio equipment and stamped rims. Such a car costs 314,000 rubles.

Equipment “Norma”0)

"Lux" package 0)

The next stage already has a 106-horsepower engine.

This car sports an upgraded suspension, a passenger airbag, front seat belt pretensioners, LED turn signals, fog lights, an ignition key with a remote control (doors and trunk), an alarm system, an extended sound insulation package, an eyeglass holder on the ceiling, and height-adjustable front seat belts. , heated front seats, power windows in the rear doors, climate control system SAUKU with a function to maintain a set temperature and 15-inch alloy wheels. The price of the car in this version is already 419,500 rubles.

The most “luxury” version stands apart

0) with a 98-horsepower engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission. To all of the above, ESC stability control system, rear parking sensors, rain and light sensors are added. This Lada already costs 477,500 rubles, although it is not possible to find a car on the market with this level of equipment for the same money.

BMW

BMW cars are prone to problems with various indicators on the dashboard. In versions E60, E90 and X1, a flashing exclamation mark, depending on the type of additional lamps, may indicate a malfunction of the following systems:

• tire puncture;
• failure of the ABS or directional stability system;
• critical battery discharge;
• on automatic machines it may indicate overheating of the lubricant in the crankcase of the mechanism;
• when the “check engine” light comes on at the same time, it indicates a drop in the oil level;
• a breakdown in the brake line or the electrical part of the handbrake.

Some vehicle modifications may have different meanings. Accurate decoding of the indicators is carried out by connecting a diagnostic computer.

Reasons for shutdown

The main reason lies in the electric power steering. When ignited, the system performs a self-diagnosis and if the mechanism does not pass it, a signal is turned on indicating a malfunction. The color of the signal indicates the degree of danger. The light turns red, the problem needs to be fixed urgently. If the color is yellow, the vehicle can be operated, but safety precautions should be taken. There may be several reasons why the electric power steering on Kalina does not work:

• speed sensor malfunction;
• torque sensor malfunction;
• speed exceeds 60 km/h;
• engine speed is less than 400 per minute;
• failure in the control unit;
• poorly soldered contacts;
• insufficient tension.

Software shutdown

1. The electric power steering on Kalina turns off after 60 km/h. Therefore, keep this point in mind; it is set in the system unit and is not a breakdown. The Priora's electric power steering is switched off at a speed of 110 km/h.
2. Also, the EUR does not work at low engine speeds. If the value is less than 400 rpm, it is not active.

This is software planned inactivity. It is needed to give information to the steering wheel at high speed and reduce wear of the mechanism.

Purpose of the unit

Due to the operation of the ESD, the load and force on the steering wheel are reduced when making a turn. The unit greatly facilitates driving, and at high speed it does not allow dangerous maneuvers.

The unit includes the following components:

1. Steering wheel;
2. Column;
3. Shaft;
4. Electric motor;
5. Steering mechanism;
6. Electronic control unit (ECU);
7. Torque sensor.

When turning, the electric power steering is activated. The torque is provided by an electric motor, which is present in the EUR design. The torque sensor measures the indicator and sends it to the ECU. Depending on the angle of rotation, the block calculates how much power needs to be given to the motor. The switch located under the steering wheel contains a device that determines the angle of rotation. The torque and rotation sensors transmit data to the ECU, which “determines” whether the electric motor is running at the desired speed.

On previous generations of VAZ cars, a hydraulic booster was installed; it gave almost the same force in all rotation ranges. As for the electric power steering, the degree of force depends on many factors - the speed of rotation of the steering wheel and its angle, the speed of the power plant, the speed of movement.
