Where is the central control box located in the four doors of the new Sail?

Above the driver's footrest, behind the instrument fuse box. Introduction to car central control: It is the place where the car's air conditioning, audio, and other comfort and entertainment devices are controlled. The car central control includes the central control door lock system, through which the driver can control the opening and closing of all doors and the window lifting system. Central control door lock system: It mainly has three functions: central control, speed control, and individual control. The driver can control all door locks, and when the vehicle reaches a certain speed, the doors automatically lock. Other doors have independent switches, allowing individual control of their own doors. The car central control also includes the central console, which has various vehicle controllers such as the audio control panel.
I remember that time in the garage when I was working on my new Sail by myself. The central control box was hidden inside the driver's side door panel. I had to remove the door trim first and loosen a few fasteners with a screwdriver to see that little black box, which controls all the door locking and unlocking functions. Generally, in the four-door version of the Sail, this location is convenient for wiring to the driver's seat control buttons. If you can't find it, I recommend checking the owner's manual or online forums with diagrams. Don't force it to avoid damaging the wiring harness, as a loose connection could lead to door lock failure—I've experienced that situation myself, and later had to add a new clip to fix it. Regularly checking it and the aging of the wiring harness can prevent problems and save a lot of trouble. By the way, if the weather is humid, the box is prone to moisture and rust, so spraying some rust inhibitor is a good idea. In short, make sure the vehicle's power is off for safety before working on it, and if you really need to replace parts, buy genuine ones to ensure reliability.
