2 Answers
The OBD connector of the Huansu S3 is located under the glove box on the passenger side. Move the front passenger seat all the way back to see it. Below is some information about this vehicle: 1. Exterior design. The new model remains largely consistent with the current version, featuring BAIC's signature "X"-shaped front grille. The vehicle measures 4380/1730/1720mm (L/W/H) with a 2685mm wheelbase. It adopts a 7-seat layout with over 20 seating configurations, abundant storage spaces, and a maximum trunk expansion capacity of 1668L. 2. Interior design. The cabin maintains the current model's styling, now with warmer gray color schemes. The 1.5L Comfort trim adds a rearview camera, while the 1.5L Luxury trim gains a power sunroof. 3. Powertrain. The vehicle continues using a 1.5L engine producing 83kW (113PS) maximum power and 150Nm peak torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I remember helping a friend locate the OBD port for the BAIC Huansu S3. It's usually found around the driver's seat area. You might need to bend down and check slightly to the right under the steering wheel, near where your knees would be – that's where it's often tucked away. From my own experience trying several times, if you're unfamiliar with the location, it can easily be obscured by other wiring. I'd recommend using a flashlight to inspect dark corners before driving. If you can't find it, don't yank random connectors – damaging the wiring could affect diagnostics and cause headaches during vehicle inspections. Making it a habit to periodically check the port helps avoid emergencies, since this interface is crucial for connecting scan tools. On older vehicles, the connector might become loose, but proper maintenance ensures smoother diagnostics when needed.
