Why won't the trunk hydraulic brace hold？
Automotive hydraulic support rod, as an elastic element with gas and liquid as the working medium, is mainly composed of pressure pipe, piston, piston rod and a series of connecting parts, and is filled with high-pressure nitrogen. When the hydraulic support rod has an aging problem caused by too long use time, its seal may fail, especially in the summer. In this case, the hydraulic rod in the trunk of the vehicle needs to be replaced to ensure its normal operation, otherwise it may adversely affect use.
The working principle of the hydraulic support rod is based on hydraulic technology, and in a cold environment, the work of the hydraulic pressure may become less smooth, resulting in a slow motor response, and the window lifting speed may also be slow, which is a normal phenomenon.
Specifically, the problem of the loss of elasticity of the trunk hydraulic support rod is usually caused by the failure of the support rod. In response to this problem, the owner can choose to go to the car 4S shop or repair shop to replace the support rod, so as to solve the problem of no elasticity of the support rod.
Take the Sagitar model as an example, if the trunk hydraulic rod cannot be supported, this may be due to the internal pressure leakage of the hydraulic cylinder. In order to fix this problem, the owner needs to replace two hydraulic rods to ensure the normal use of the trunk.
How to remove the trunk support rod?
The steps to remove the trunk support rod are as follows:
1. First, remove the spacer on the left side of the trunk. This spacer is usually held in place by three clasps, so a screwdriver is needed when removing it, carefully removing the clasps to avoid using too much force and causing damage.
2. Next, hold a small piece of plastic against the head of the screwdriver and rotate it so that the clip can be removed. At the same time, push the rod body part of the screwdriver against the top of the support rod and compress the gas rod slightly.
3. Push it sideways while compressing the gas rod. When a "kata" sound is heard, it means that the disassembly is successful.
It should be noted that violence should be avoided as much as possible during operation to avoid damaging the trunk or support rods. In case of disassembly difficulties, it is recommended to seek professional help.
What are the ways to install the trunk brace?
The steps to install the trunk strut are as follows:
1. Before installation, first adjust the spring to the longest state to ensure the smooth progress of the following steps.
2. When mounting, adjust to the appropriate length according to actual needs, not only to ensure the stability of the strut, but also to take into account the convenience of opening the trunk.
3. When running for the first time, it is recommended to block the lid with your bare hands, feel its strength and release it slowly, while observing the height of the spring, which is crucial for subsequent adjustment.
4. According to the observed spring height, the position of the strut is evaluated and adjusted until the satisfactory effect is achieved.
5. If a spring has met the demand, there is no need to hang a second one to avoid waste of resources.
6. If one spring cannot meet the demand, another spring can be hung on the other side, but before this, the strength of the first spring needs to be re-adjusted to ensure that the two springs work together.
