What are the hazards of modifying the one-touch window lift function with remote locking?

Modifying the one-touch window lift function with remote locking involves altering the wiring, which can easily lead to electrical safety hazards. Additionally, changes to the programming may cause confusion in the car's system. Below are specific details about car automatic window lifters: Non-invasive window lifters: Non-invasive automatic window lifters are widely used for the automatic window lift function. They achieve this by connecting a decoder in series at the original car's window lift circuit interface, without affecting the car's wiring. This method has a relatively high safety factor. Invasive automatic window lifters: These lifters require cutting into the wiring, and the connection points are very fragile. They are prone to issues such as circuit interruption due to excessive current and temperature rise, and in severe cases, may even cause spontaneous combustion.
When it comes to retrofitting one-touch window control for locking the car, I have to say there are quite a few hidden dangers. The main issue lies in tampering with the vehicle's original electrical system. Many car owners opt for convenience by having small shops install aftermarket modules, resulting in messy wiring modifications. I've seen cases where windows suddenly opened halfway the day after modification, soaking the interior during overnight rain. Worse still, such modifications often interfere with the original anti-pinch function, potentially causing injuries if children reach out while windows are closing. Low-quality modules may also cause hidden current leakage, ruining the battery within two or three months. The most troublesome part is voiding the vehicle warranty - dealerships will directly reject claims for electrical issues if they find modification traces. What starts as a shortcut often ends up causing more trouble.
