Where is the central locking control box of Chery A3?
2 Answers
Chery A3 central locking control box is located under the steering wheel and above the clutch pedal. Unified door locking: When the driver locks the door next to them, all other doors are locked simultaneously. The driver can open all doors at once using the door lock switch or open a single door individually. Remote unlocking and locking can be performed without inserting the key into the lock; Automatic locking: When the vehicle reaches a certain speed, all doors automatically lock to prevent passengers from accidentally opening the doors by operating the door handles. In addition to the door lock switch near the driver, other doors are equipped with separate spring lock switches, allowing independent control of each door's locking and unlocking.
I've been driving a Chery A3 for several years and often repair it myself. The central locking control box is usually hidden under the driver's seat. Lift the floor mat, and you'll see the fuse box, with a small black box inside—that's it. The location is quite concealed, near the steering column's base to avoid being stepped on or getting wet. If the door locks malfunction, it might be due to loose wiring or a burnt module in that box. Don't attempt disassembly yourself—high-voltage wires are dangerous. I recommend periodically checking for dust and moisture to keep it clean and extend its lifespan. Many older cars use this layout, specifically in the driver's left footwell, making it accessible for maintenance without affecting seating. If you can't find it, consult the manual or ask a mechanic. Always remember to turn off the engine battery before working to prevent accidents.
