Where is the VIN located on the Great Wall Pao?
1 Answers
The Great Wall Pao has VINs in multiple locations, as detailed below: On the left front instrument panel cover, visible from the windshield; Open the right front door, and there is a vehicle nameplate on the center pillar, which contains the VIN, engine number, and vehicle information; Open the engine hood, and it is located below the windshield. It can also be found on the vehicle registration certificate or the vehicle compliance certificate. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), or chassis number, is a unique set of seventeen alphanumeric characters used to identify a vehicle's manufacturer, engine, chassis serial number, and other specifications. Each character in the VIN has a specific meaning, and the entire VIN is divided into several sections. The first part identifies the vehicle's manufacturer, consisting of the first three characters: the first character identifies the country/region of origin. If the vehicle is assembled from parts produced in different countries/regions, this character indicates the assembly country/region; The second character identifies the vehicle's manufacturer. In the United States, the Society of Automotive Engineers is responsible for issuing manufacturer codes. The third character identifies the manufacturer's internal division or conventional vehicle type; The fourth character: body style code, which indicates whether the vehicle is an A-4-door sedan, B-4-door hatchback, or C-4-door extended sedan; The fifth character: represents the engine/transmission code; The sixth character: occupant protection system code; The seventh-eighth characters: represent the vehicle grade code; the ninth character is always a check digit. The correct check digit can be obtained by performing a series of calculations on the other characters in the VIN; The ninth character: check code, which verifies whether the VIN is correctly filled out; The tenth character is the model year code. Each year is assigned a specific character. From the 1980s to 2000, each year was represented by a single character, with 2000 assigned the character 'Y'. The code for 2001 was '1', 2002 was '2', and so on. To avoid confusion with the numbers 1, 0, and 9, the letters 'I', 'O', and 'Q' are not used. The tenth character for the production year does not use 'I', 'O', 'Q', 'U', 'Z', or '0'; The eleventh character is the plant code, indicating the assembly plant. The last six characters (12-17) are the production sequence number, though some small manufacturers producing fewer than 500 vehicles per year use the 12th, 13th, and 14th characters as additional manufacturer identification codes. The production sequence number identifies the vehicle itself, similar to a serial number; Since each manufacturer uses different codes and each vehicle produced in the same plant has its own production sequence number, every vehicle produced in a specific year has a unique VIN.
