DTC B175F indicates the SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) control unit detects the left front curtain airbag (CAB) ignition circuit resistance falls outside the normal range (normal value: 2 — Atto 3

Safety System

DTC B175F indicates the SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) control unit detects the left front curtain airbag (CAB) ignition circuit resistance falls outside the normal range (normal value: 2.0–3.0 Ω; fault threshold: >6 Ω or open circuit).

This Level 2 airbag system fault means the affected curtain airbag may fail to deploy or deploy late during a collision, severely compromising occupant side-impact protection.

The SRS ECU continuously monitors each airbag inflator circuit resistance using a Wheatstone bridge.

Excessive resistance typically indicates poor circuit contact, high wiring impedance, or an open circuit within the inflator.

On BYD new energy vehicles, check for potential electromagnetic interference from the high-voltage interlock circuit affecting the SRS.

Song MAX B-pillar connector water ingress and oxidation caused high resistance.

✓
A 2019 Song MAX frequently set DTC B175F with intermittent airbag warning light during the rainy season. Inspection found obvious water stains inside the left front side curtain airbag B-pillar connector, with terminals oxidised and black. Aged door seals let rainwater in, causing the connector's waterproof seal to fail. The technician cleaned the terminals, applied conductive protectant, and replaced the waterproof seal to clear the fault.

Qin Pro roof wiring harness fractured internally at hinge

✓
2020 BYD Qin Pro set B175F at 80,000 km. Airbag module resistance measured normal, but harness circuit resistance was intermittent. Removed the headliner and found the wiring at the left front door upper hinge had fractured internal copper strands from long-term flexing, leaving only partial continuity and creating high resistance. Replaced the damaged harness section, added abrasion protection sleeves, and re-routed the harness to avoid excessive flexing.

Open circuit in internal squib of side curtain airbag module due to aging

✓
A 2019 Song MAX set DTC B175F after collision repairs. Inspection revealed the left front side curtain airbag had partially deployed but was reset without replacement. Disassembling the module showed infinite resistance at the igniter—the internal bridge wire had broken. We installed a new left front side curtain airbag and performed configuration programming via the diagnostic tool (entering the new airbag serial number). The fault code cleared and the system passed self-test.

SRS control unit sampling circuit false positive

✓
A Qin gasoline variant still showed DTC B175F after multiple airbag and wiring harness replacements. Oscilloscope testing of the SRS ECU sample voltage waveform revealed abnormal spike interference. Inspection found an aftermarket dashcam installed; its power line was interfering with the SRS system. Removing the device and checking the SRS ECU ground wiring revealed a loose ground point causing reference voltage drift. Tightening the ground point cleared the fault.

P0A0DBattery Energy Control Module Requested MIL IlluminationP0AA6Hybrid Battery Voltage System Isolation FaultP1A00Drive Motor "A" Performance — BYD proprietaryB1108For 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.
