Method to remove the BYD F3 heater switch: Take off the middle knob, remove the screws, then pry open the center console panel to take out the heater switch. Here is how to turn on the BYD F3 heater: Switch location: The three knobs above the center storage box on the dashboard. Method: After starting the car, wait for 5-10 minutes until the BYD F3's water temperature reaches normal operating temperature. At this point, you can turn on the BYD F3 heater. Adjust the air conditioning circulation mode to internal circulation, then turn the third knob to the red zone. Do not turn on the middle knob; rotate the first knob to adjust the appropriate fan speed and air vent direction.
I've been driving a BYD F3 for about seven or eight years and often do my own car repairs. Removing the heater switch is quite a common task. First, make sure the car is turned off and the key is removed—safety first. It's best to disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent short circuits. The switch is located on the center console panel. Use a plastic pry tool or a flathead screwdriver to gently pry open the panel clips, being careful not to apply too much force to avoid scratching the plastic. Once the panel is removed, you'll see the screws securing the heater switch. Unscrew them and gently disconnect the wiring harness plug. The switch will then be removed. To install the new switch, just reverse the steps, and don't forget to clean off any dust to ensure good contact and prevent vent blockages. The whole job takes about 20 minutes. Beginners are advised to watch online tutorial videos for assistance. BYD F3 parts are inexpensive, so doing it yourself saves on repair costs. After replacing the switch, test the heater to make sure it works properly. If it doesn't respond, remember to check the fuse. Regular inspections of the switch can extend its lifespan.
