Where is the VIN on the Jiangling Baodian?
2 Answers
The VIN of the Jiangling Baodian is located between the right front door and the right rear door, and you need to crawl under the car to see it. Generally, the VIN can also be found on the car's front windshield, the motor vehicle license, or the nameplate in the engine compartment. Below is a detailed introduction to the VIN: 1. The first 3 characters: represent the country of production, manufacturer, and vehicle type. 2. Characters 4-8: represent vehicle characteristics, such as the type of car, engine type, body type, etc. 3. The 9th character: represents the check digit, used to determine if the VIN is correctly filled. 4. The 10th character: represents the production year, indicating the year the car was manufactured, usually marked as the vehicle's production year, which is an important identifier for the vehicle. 5. The 11th character: represents the assembly location of the car, usually denoted by 0. 6. Characters 12-17: represent the production serial number of the car.
With over 20 years of auto repair experience, I know the JMC Baodian's VIN locations like the back of my hand. The most obvious spot is at the lower left corner of the windshield on the driver's side - just lean in to see a long string of characters. However, if it's obscured by accident damage or window tint, check the stamped metal plate on the driver's door frame (visible when the door is open). You'll also find it engraved on the chassis rail near the firewall in the engine bay, though you'll need a flashlight and some crouching to read it. Two backup locations: the crossmember under the front passenger seat (requires lying down) and the first page of the vehicle registration certificate. Pro tip: freshly washed VIN plates are easiest to read - don't let mud cover them up.
