The high-voltage power-off switch on the BYD Tang is located on the fuse box under the steering wheel, where there is a switch. Below is an introduction to the BYD Tang: 1. Technical aspects. The comprehensive strength of the all-new Tang surpasses its class: integrating the Dragon Face design concept, SEA large luxury chassis platform technology, DiLink intelligent connectivity system, D++ open ecosystem, third-generation dual-mode technology, ADAS intelligent driving assistance system, and other differentiated product values. 2. Exterior design. The all-new BYD Tang fuel version is built based on the latest Dragon Face design language, showing significant changes compared to the previous generation, primarily influenced by the ideas brought by former Audi design director Wolfgang Egger. The signature large-mouth grille is paired with LED headlights on both sides.
I thoroughly examined this during my last maintenance check on the BYD Tang. The high-voltage cutoff switch for this vehicle is concealed behind the left trim panel in the trunk. You'll need to open the trunk, clear out the left storage compartment, and pry open the plastic cover to reveal the orange button switch. Before operation, you must turn off the engine, disconnect the power, remove the car key, and wear insulated gloves because it's connected to a 300+ volt high-voltage battery. Actually, hybrid vehicles are equipped with this switch to instantly cut off high-voltage electricity in emergencies, preventing electric shock or short circuits. I remember once when a colleague checked the motor without cutting off the high-voltage power, causing a trip alarm that gave him quite a scare. Normally, avoid touching it unnecessarily. If you really need to operate it, it's recommended to wrap the switch handle with insulating tape to prevent accidental contact.
