Home › Models › BYD Seal › Where Is It?

The BYD SEAL is a fully electric D-segment saloon introduced in the UK in 2023. Because it is built on a dedicated platform using Cell-to-Body (CTB) technology, the layout of its components differs significantly from traditional internal combustion engine cars. There is no petrol engine. Instead, the vehicle features a 53-litre front boot (frunk).
This guide explains the purpose of key components and how to locate them. We do not hold the exact manual locations for all items. For precise locations and safe handling procedures, always check your owner’s manual or confirm with an authorised BYD dealer. Note that the specific locations for these components are not detailed in our general specifications.

where in BYD SEAL is the fuse box
The fuse box houses the fuses that protect the vehicle’s low-voltage electrical circuits, such as the 12-speaker Dynaudio system, interior lighting, and the 15.6-inch rotatable touchscreen. If an electrical accessory stops working, a blown fuse could be the cause. To find the exact location and the fuse diagram, check your owner’s manual.
where in BYD SEAL is the 12v battery
Although the BYD SEAL is powered by a large 82.5 kWh Blade Battery for traction, it still uses a separate 12v battery to run standard electronics, such as the central locking, alarm, and the computers needed to start the high-voltage system. To find its location safely, confirm with an authorised BYD dealer or consult the manual.
where in BYD SEAL is the charging port
The charging port is where you connect the vehicle to an external power supply to recharge the traction battery. The BYD SEAL is equipped with a CCS2 charging port, which supports AC charging up to 11 kW and DC fast charging up to 150 kW. The vehicle also supports Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) up to 3 kW. Refer to your owner’s manual for the exact location of the port on the vehicle’s exterior.
where in BYD SEAL is the OBD port
The On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) port is used by technicians to connect diagnostic tools to the car’s computer system. This allows them to read error codes and perform software updates. For the exact location in this specific model, check your owner’s manual.
where in BYD SEAL is the cabin air filter
The cabin air filter is responsible for cleaning the air that enters the interior through the heating, ventilation, and dual-zone climate control systems. The BYD SEAL also features a negative-ion generator and a PM2.5 filter. The filter ensures dust, pollen, and pollutants are kept out of the cabin. To find where the filter housing is located for replacement, check your owner’s manual.
where in BYD SEAL is the VIN number
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is a code used to identify your specific car. You will need it for insurance, ordering parts, and checking for recalls. The owner’s manual shows the exact position. Confirm with an authorised BYD dealer if you cannot locate it.
where in BYD SEAL is the tyre repair kit
Instead of a heavy spare wheel, electric vehicles include a tyre repair kit consisting of tyre sealant and a 12v compressor. This is used for temporary repairs of minor punctures. Check your owner’s manual for its designated storage location.
where in BYD SEAL is the towing eye
The towing eye is a metal ring that screws into the chassis, allowing the vehicle to be winched onto a recovery truck safely. It is crucial to use this specific point to avoid damaging the vehicle’s bodywork or electrical components. Check your owner’s manual to find where the towing eye is stored and the position of the attachment points.
where in BYD SEAL is the child lock
Child locks are safety mechanisms on the rear doors that prevent them from being opened from the inside, ensuring the safety of young passengers. The owner’s manual shows the exact position. Check your owner’s manual for operation instructions.
where in BYD SEAL is the jack point
Jack points are specific structurally reinforced areas under the car where a jack can safely lift the vehicle without causing damage, especially important given the floor-mounted Blade Battery. Always use these exact points if lifting the car. For the location of these points, confirm with an authorised BYD dealer or consult the manual. BYD’s own procedure applies for all lifting operations.
