C006202

DTC C006202 indicates the IPB (Intelligent Integrated Braking System) detected an abnormal longitudinal acceleration sensor signal — Atto 3

Braking System

DTC C006202 indicates the IPB (Intelligent Integrated Braking System) detected an abnormal longitudinal acceleration sensor signal.

This sensor measures the vehicle’s longitudinal acceleration (deceleration) G-value.

It provides a key input signal for the coordinated control of Electronic Stability Control (ESC), the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), and the energy recovery system.

BYD DMi models typically integrate this sensor within the IPB assembly or mount it on the chassis as an independent inertial sensor.

A signal fault causes these safety systems to enter a degraded mode or fail, affecting driving stability, particularly during emergency braking and handling on slippery roads.

BYD Song Plus DM-i ESC warning light on after water wading, C006202 intermittent

✓
A 2021 Song PLUS DMi with 20,000 km showed intermittent ABS and ESC warning lights after the owner drove through heavy rain and floodwater. The scan tool logged current fault code C006202. Live data showed the longitudinal acceleration signal fluctuating between 0.5G and 1.2G (normal: 0±0.1G). Raising the vehicle on a hoist revealed water stains and green corrosion inside the chassis IPB harness connector G03. We cleaned the connector, applied insulating silicone grease, dried the harness internals with compressed air, and reconnected it. The fault cleared. Check underbody sealing and fit a harness protective sleeve if required.

C006202 persists after accident repairs; replace the IPB.

✓
After replacing the front bumper and underbody shields during accident repairs, the dashboard displayed 'Braking System Fault'. Scanned DTC C006202; it would not clear. Inspection found the IPB assembly sustained minor impact in the collision. Externally undamaged, but the internal longitudinal acceleration sensor MEMS chip had failed. Data stream showed longitudinal acceleration fixed at 2.4G regardless of vehicle movement. Since the sensor is integrated in the IPB and not available separately, replaced the IPB assembly and performed longitudinal acceleration zero-point calibration. Fault resolved.

Software fault caused signal drift; upgraded IPB software to resolve.

✓
A 2022 Song Pro DMi frequently triggered DTC C006202 during normal driving on flat roads. Checks of the wiring harness and sensor data stream showed no obvious abnormalities; the code cleared but returned after 10 km. BYD technical service bulletins confirmed an IPB control unit software defect in this VIN range, causing abnormal longitudinal acceleration signal filtering. Fix: Upgrade the IPB control unit software using VDS2000 to the latest version (must be newer than the March 2023 release), then perform sensor zero-point learning. The fault did not recur after a 30 km road test.

Aftermarket underbody shield pinched wiring harness, causing interference

✓
After the owner had an engine undershield fitted at a non-authorised workshop, the ESC warning light came on. Diagnosis revealed active DTC C006202. Inspection showed the installer had not torqued the aftermarket shield to specification; its edge compressed the IPB longitudinal acceleration sensor harness, causing the signal wire to short intermittently to ground. The technician repositioned the shield, fitted rubber buffer pads between the shield and harness, and repaired the crushed insulation to clear the fault. Technicians should note the impact of underbody modifications on chassis wiring.

Sensor zero-point lost after extended storage; recalibrated

✓
A Song PLUS DM-i parked for three months displayed DTC C006202 and a "Check Brake System" warning upon restart. The vehicle had no collision or water ingress history, and wiring inspection found no faults. Prolonged 12V battery depletion caused the IPB control unit to lose its stored longitudinal acceleration zero-point calibration data. Repair: Connected a diagnostic tool, accessed the IPB system, and performed "Longitudinal Acceleration Sensor Zero-Point Calibration." Completed the calibration as prompted, cleared the DTC, road-tested with hard acceleration and hard braking, confirmed normal ESC operation, and delivered the vehicle.

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.
