Where is the GPS installed in the Baojun 730?

Baojun 730's GPS is generally installed near the center console, as there is usually enough space for installation in that area. Additionally, the center console location is mostly enclosed, providing better protection for the GPS. GPS signal reception: The working principle of the GPS system involves analyzing signals received from synchronous satellites. When projected onto a vertical plane, these signals can be visually represented as inverted funnel shapes. When the lower parts of these "funnels" overlap to a certain extent, the GPS processing program can calculate the coordinates of the vehicle's location. GPS signal processing: The signals received by the GPS and the information provided by the speed measurement device are transmitted to the car navigation system through the receiver. The software system then analyzes and processes this data, overlaying it onto stored maps.

On my Baojun 730, the factory-installed GPS antenna is housed inside the shark fin antenna on the roof, delivering remarkably stable signals and highly accurate navigation. When installing an additional GPS unit, positioning is crucial: the center of the roof is optimal, offering unobstructed views with no metal interference; the upper corners of the windshield, such as near the rearview mirror, are also viable options. However, avoid DIY attempts, as improper installation may damage wiring or pose safety hazards. Once, I helped a friend mount one inside the trunk lid, which resulted in weak signals and even affected the car's paint. It's advisable to visit a professional workshop—they have specialized tools to test optimal placement while preventing interior scratches. As an MPV, the Baojun 730's spacious design incorporates well-considered GPS integration from the factory. Don’t forget to include antenna checks during regular maintenance.

The GPS installation point for the Baojun 730 is commonly located on the roof, with the factory antenna integrated into the shark fin, ensuring high satellite reception efficiency. When installing aftermarket GPS, choosing the right location is crucial: the center of the roof is ideal as it reduces signal interference; the upper right corner of the windshield is also a good option, but the adhesive must be secure. The installation process requires caution to avoid touching wiring or sensors. I've seen many owners casually place it in the gaps of interior panels, which not only causes signal drift but also risks electrical shorts. Due to the Baojun's taller body height, mounting the GPS on the roof helps avoid surrounding obstacles, resulting in more accurate navigation. If adding a tracker, choose a discreet location such as under the dashboard to avoid affecting daily driving. In short, safety comes first, and professional installation is the most hassle-free option.

The GPS in the Baojun 730 comes pre-installed on the roof, making navigation operation very convenient. For aftermarket devices, I would choose a position higher up on the windshield for stable signals and fewer false alarms. Don't attempt installation yourself—messy wiring can easily lead to malfunctions. The roof-mounted shark fin design is practical, ensuring accurate navigation for family use in the Baojun 730, giving peace of mind on long trips. Higher placement provides stronger signals and avoids metal interference.

The standard position of the Baojun 730's GPS antenna is inside the shark fin on the roof, which is reasonably installed and provides wide signal coverage. When adding an antenna, location is crucial: the center of the roof is optimal for clear satellite links; the upper corner of the windshield is an alternative. Pay attention to installation details: ensure good grounding and avoid signal shielding. I recommend using a magnetic antenna for testing positions on the roof, as it is more flexible than adhesive mounting. This helps quickly identify issues in weak signal areas. Position planning affects navigation accuracy and battery consumption.
