B1795-00

DTC B1795-00 indicates the airbag control module (SRS ECU) detects an abnormal short to vehicle power (B+) in the driver-side seat belt pretensioner drive circuit (second-stage firing circuit) — Atto 8

Safety System

DTC B1795-00 indicates the airbag control module (SRS ECU) detects an abnormal short to vehicle power (B+) in the driver-side seat belt pretensioner drive circuit (second-stage firing circuit).

In a dual-stage pretensioner system, the second stage further tightens the seat belt during a severe collision.

Normally, this circuit remains open or low.

When the ECU detects the pretensioner circuit voltage continuously exceeding the threshold (near the 12V battery voltage), it registers a short to power.

This fault causes the ECU to immediately disable the pretensioner circuit and illuminate the airbag warning light.

In extreme cases, the pretensioner may fail to deploy or deploy abnormally during a collision.

This severe fault compromises occupant safety.

BYD Qin EV300 seat track wiring harness chafed and shorted

✓
Airbag warning light stayed on. Diagnostic scan retrieved DTC B1795-00 (Driver Second Stage Seatbelt Pretensioner Short to Power). Inspection found the wiring harness under the driver's seat had chafed against the fore-aft adjustment rails over time, damaging the insulation and causing the pretensioner power wire to short to constant B+. Repaired the damaged wiring, rerouted the harness away from moving components, and secured it with dedicated cable clips. Cleared the fault codes; system returned to normal.

After accident repairs on the Qin 80, misaligned connector terminals caused a short circuit.

✓
A Qin 80 had its driver seat belt assembly replaced at a non-authorised repairer after a collision. The airbag warning light came on the day after delivery. Techs retrieved DTC B1795-00. Inspection found the pretensioner connector terminals installed incorrectly, causing the second-stage ignition circuit terminal to short against the power terminal. Reinstalling the terminals correctly and confirming the lock tabs engaged cleared the fault.

BYD Qin EV450 – Water ingress into floor wiring harness after wading

✓
After driving through water, water entered the driver's side carpet and the airbag warning light stayed on with DTC B1795-00 stored. Inspection revealed the floor harness connector seal under the driver's seat had failed. Water ingress caused electrolytic oxidation between the terminals, dropping the insulation resistance between the pretensioner drive circuit and power supply circuit to 0.5Ω. Thoroughly cleaned and dried the connector, applied conductive protectant, and replaced the seal to clear the fault.

Qin Pro SRS ECU internal driver circuit fault

✓
No accident history. Airbag warning light suddenly illuminated while driving. DTC B1795-00. Checked pretensioner wiring harness insulation and connectors—good. Pretensioner resistance measured 2.3Ω (normal). Disconnected pretensioner; ECU-side output terminals still outputting constant 12V. SRS ECU internal drive transistor shorted. Replaced SRS control unit, performed VIN coding and system configuration. Fault resolved.

B1108For the BYD Song MAX (2017–2019), DTC B1108 indicates a short circuit in the PM2.5 air quality detection module (dust sensor) or its wiring harness. The sensor uses laser scattering to detect in-cabin and outside PM2.5 concentrations and transmits data to the HVAC ECU via the LIN bus or an analog signal. Short circuit conditions include: 1) Sensor power supply wire (+5V/+12V) shorted to ground 2) Signal wire shorted to power or ground 3) Short circuit in the sensor's internal photoelectric detection circuit This fault prevents the automatic climate control from switching between fresh air and recirculation based on air quality. The system enters fail-safe mode (typically forced recirculation). Severe short-circuit current can destroy the HVAC ECU sampling circuit. The system classifies this as a Level 3 severe fault and restricts vehicle operation to prevent electrical fires or controller damage. For other BYD models (such as the Qin EV, E5, and Song DM), B1108 indicates a driver-side sunload sensor fault, reflecting differences in DTC definitions across models.B110811This DTC indicates a short circuit in the air conditioning system PM2.5 air quality sensor (rapid detector). Specifically, abnormal continuity exists between the sensor power supply circuit or signal output circuit and body ground or battery positive. This causes the control module (ACU/air conditioning controller) to detect abnormal current or a voltage signal outside the valid range (typically 0V or supply voltage). The PM2.5 sensor monitors internal and external particulate concentrations, providing the data the automatic air conditioning system uses to switch between fresh air and recirculation modes. A short circuit disables the air quality monitoring function. This fault may force the air conditioning system into recirculation protection mode and trigger related thermal management system faults, as the air conditioning system acts as a key actuator in vehicle thermal management. In severe cases, the short circuit current can damage the internal sampling circuit of the air conditioning controller or overheat the wiring harness.B1109DTC B1109 indicates an open circuit in the communication line between the air conditioning system PM2.5 air quality sensor (dust concentration sensor) and the air conditioning control unit (AC ECU), or an open circuit within the sensor internal circuitry. Typically located in the air conditioning intake duct, this sensor monitors real-time PM2.5 particle concentration inside and outside the vehicle. It provides data to the automatic air conditioning system for intelligent switching between fresh air and recirculation modes and for controlling the air purification device. During an open circuit fault, the AC ECU cannot receive the air quality signal, triggering the system fail-safe mode. Symptoms typically include failure of the automatic recirculation function, abnormal air purification indicator light operation, or abnormal air quality data displayed on the air conditioning panel. Severe cases may compromise the cabin environment control strategy, but do not directly affect vehicle driving safety.B110913DTC B110913 indicates an open signal circuit for the PM2.5 rapid detector (in-cabin air quality sensor). This sensor typically mounts inside the air conditioning system intake duct. It monitors in-cabin PM2.5 concentration in real time and provides data to the automatic air conditioning system for intelligent control of the air purification function. The BYD diagnostic protocol uses sub-code '13' to specifically indicate an open signal circuit. Although this fault theoretically affects a comfort feature, BYD Qin series vehicles classify it as a Level 3 (severe) fault. This classification occurs because the air conditioning system interacts with the battery thermal management system (e.g., monitoring battery cooling intake air quality). The fault can disable the automatic air conditioning mode and prevent the air purification function from operating. In extreme cases, it affects the battery compartment intake air quality assessment, triggering the 'repair immediately' strategy.B110AThis DTC indicates interrupted CAN bus communication or abnormal data between the air conditioning control unit (ACU) and the PM2.5 air quality sensor. The PM2.5 sensor monitors particulate concentration inside and outside the vehicle and provides the basis for purification control in the automatic air conditioning system. The ACU triggers this fault if it fails to receive a valid CAN message from the sensor within the specified period (usually 100-500 ms), if message verification fails, or if the signal frame times out. Although this fault does not affect vehicle driving safety, it disables the automatic air purification function. The air conditioning system cannot automatically switch between recirculation and fresh air modes or activate the air purification mode based on air quality. A persistent fault may restrict the thermal management strategy.
