Where is the manual lock for the Fit?

Fit's manual lock is located at the OBD interface. Here is more information about the Fit: 1. The Fit is a compact car under Honda, equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated Earth Dreams engine. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine of the Fit has a maximum power of 96 kW, a maximum torque of 155 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6600 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4600 rpm. This engine features i-VTEC technology and direct fuel injection, and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT. 2. The front suspension of the Fit uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
On the inside of the Fit's door, the manual door lock is usually located above or near the main driver's door handle, as a small knob or lever that can be pushed lightly to lock the door. I remember my first Fit was an older model, and that lock tab was designed very conveniently—just reach out and touch it. The new generation is the same, positioned right where your arm naturally rests. It's easy to find: sit in the car, look down at the inner side of the door handle, and there it is—that silver thing, operable without even bending over. If you can't find it right away, it might be because dust has accumulated from the door being open too long—just wipe it clean. Some friends think the car only has an automatic lock, but this manual lock is actually super practical—for example, when the electric system is out of power, using it to manually lock the door is safer. I recommend getting familiar with its feel to avoid fumbling in emergencies.
