3 Answers
Haval H6 dashboard dismantling method is: 1. Remove the screws connected to the dashboard; 2. Insert a screwdriver into the area where the dashboard meets the instrument panel above, there is a clip on each side inside, pry them out. Taking the 2021 Haval H6 as an example, it is a compact SUV with body dimensions: length 4653mm, width 1886mm, height 1730mm, and a wheelbase of 2738mm. The 2021 Haval H6 is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 211PS, maximum torque of 325Nm, maximum power of 155kW, and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I often disassemble the dashboard myself. Safety first—disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and wait a few minutes for the capacitors to discharge to avoid short circuits. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, plastic pry bar, and hex key. For the Haval H6, dashboard screws are mainly located under the steering wheel and behind the A-pillar covers. Carefully pry open the plastic clips to avoid cracking them. Once the covers are off, you’ll see data and power connectors—remove them gently without pulling forcefully, especially the airbag wires (never touch those). I disassembled mine to upgrade the audio screen, taking about two hours while documenting each step with photos. Having the right tools is key. Don’t forget to test all functions after reconnecting the power during reassembly to avoid rattles. It’s practical for DIY maintenance or cosmetic upgrades, but for complex issues, I’d recommend a professional shop.
I've been repairing cars for years and have disassembled many Haval H6 dashboards, but beginners shouldn't attempt this lightly. First, disconnect the battery, then locate and unscrew the side and bottom bolts using a socket wrench. Carefully remove the steering wheel cover to expose the connectors—pull them out slowly as the airbag wires may trigger fault codes or cause injury if mishandled. The whole process takes about 15 minutes if done quickly, but make sure to have the right tools like pry bars and screwdrivers ready. I always advise checking the manual or instructional app videos first. If it's just for dust cleaning or button replacement, you can practice; but for anything involving computer modules, take it to a professional shop to avoid unnecessary hassle. Safety should always come first—don't cut corners only to pay a bigger price later.
