Does the BYD Qin automatically close windows when locked?
2 Answers
BYD Qin automatically closes windows when locked. Here is relevant information about automatic window closing: 1. Automatic window closing upon locking is achieved by the central control system of the power windows sending a signal to the windows after the car is locked; 2. Power windows use the vehicle's power supply to drive the window regulator motor: the regulator moves up and down, causing the window glass to move up and down, achieving the effect of automatic window opening and closing. Power windows allow the driver or passengers to operate the window switches while seated, making it convenient and enhancing driving safety; 3. The power window system consists of the window, window regulator, motor, relay, switch, ECU, and other components; 4. Windows generally use bidirectional permanent magnet or wound motors: each window is equipped with a motor whose current direction is controlled by a switch, enabling the window to move up and down. To prevent motor overload, one or more thermal circuit switches are installed in the circuit or motor to control the current. This prevents the motor from being powered for too long and burning out when the window glass reaches its limit position or cannot move freely due to icing.
I've been driving a BYD Qin for several years and found that it can indeed automatically close the windows when locking the car. Just press and hold the lock button on the remote for about 3 seconds, and the windows will automatically roll up, including the sunroof if equipped. This feature is so practical—I often rely on it in parking lots when I forget to close the windows, helping with rain protection and theft prevention. The BYD Qin's design is highly intelligent, and models from 2020 onwards support this feature, even integrating it with a mobile app for remote window closure, which is very convenient. I recommend that owners develop the habit of checking after locking the car to ensure the feature works properly, and to avoid window jams by regularly maintaining the tracks and motors to extend their lifespan. If new owners are unsure whether this feature is enabled, they can check the vehicle settings menu or refer to the manual—different configurations may vary slightly, but the basic models usually include this function.
