On the left side of the clutch pedal. Below is relevant information: 1. Vehicle anti-theft control box: The principle of the vehicle anti-theft control box is to install a remote-controlled computer mechanical lock at the gear shift mechanism of the vehicle transmission, controlled by a rolling code technology remote. The screw holes for installing the lock are designed with self-locking devices, and the installation location is hidden and secure, preventing code theft and disassembly. At the same time, the installation is very simple, independent, without drilling holes, and does not damage any original vehicle wiring, fuel lines, or steering control systems. 2. Precautions: Anti-theft systems are not omnipotent. Many cars now come pre-installed with an onboard computer anti-theft system from the factory. The engine will only start when the key chip data matches the pre-stored data in the onboard computer, which then instructs the relevant systems to begin operation. Vehicles equipped with an onboard computer anti-theft system do not require additional electronic anti-theft devices.
I have some experience in driving and car repairs. The anti-theft box of the JAC Refine S4 is usually located under the steering wheel or behind the dashboard. For example, after removing the cover panel, you can see a small black box connected to a bunch of wires. The exact position may vary slightly depending on the year, but it's generally in the cockpit circuit board area. Avoid touching it randomly to prevent triggering the anti-theft lock system. I recommend disconnecting the battery negative terminal first before inspection to prevent short circuits and damage to electronic components. The anti-theft box is responsible for key recognition signals. If it malfunctions, the car may not start. After replacing it, programming and matching the keys are required, otherwise it's useless. For safety, don’t delve too deep into it yourself; it's better to seek professional repair to avoid wasting time and money. Remember, the anti-theft system is the core of the vehicle's security, designed to be hidden and protected from cracking. There's no need to worry about it too much in daily use.
From a safety perspective, the anti-theft box in vehicles like the JAC Refine S4 is typically located near the firewall in the engine compartment or under the pedal area inside the car. The position is relatively concealed, but rash removal carries high risks, such as damaging electronic circuits or the anti-theft module, which could lock the vehicle and render it immobile. It's best not to attempt locating it yourself to avoid unexpected expenses like battery short circuits or sensor failures. Instead, directly contact a professional repair shop. They have diagrams and tools to handle it quickly, and the anti-theft system's engine start function is complex. After repair, ensure the key is properly matched for normal operation. Regular vehicle maintenance can help reduce the occurrence of such issues.
As a new car owner, I was told by the technician that the JAC Refine S4's anti-theft box is usually located under the plastic cover near the front passenger seat or behind the glove compartment. It functions like a control unit that reads key signals to activate the anti-theft mechanism. If you find your car key isn't working properly, don't immediately start dismantling components to check its location. It's more practical to first verify if the key battery is dead or if there's signal interference. Tampering with it yourself might damage the vehicle and void the warranty. Consulting a service center is the most convenient and efficient solution. The anti-theft system is crucial for vehicle security, but there's no need to overanalyze its exact position – as long as it functions normally. During daily driving, pay attention to the anti-theft warning light flashes and address minor issues promptly.
