Safety System

DTC B1772-00 indicates the airbag control unit (SRS ECU) detects the right rear seatbelt pretensioner circuit resistance exceeds the calibrated range (normal range: 1.8–3.0Ω; high resistance typically indicates >5Ω or infinite).

As a key passive safety system actuator, the pretensioner features a pyrotechnic design, using propellant gas to instantly tighten the seatbelt during a collision.

High resistance indicates a high-impedance connection or open circuit.

Causes include poor connector contact, a damaged wiring harness, or an open gas generator coil inside the pretensioner.

This fault continuously illuminates the SRS warning light and can trigger a degraded system mode.

During a collision, the pretensioner may fail to deploy, and the SRS ECU may suspend the right rear side airbag deployment logic, significantly reducing crash protection for the right rear passenger.

BYD Song Pro DM-i: Seat wiring harness poor contact

Symptoms: SRS warning light stays on. Scan tool shows DTC B1772-00 (Driver seat occupancy status uncertain). Returns after clearing. Diagnosis: Found the Occupant Detection System (ODS) connector (left side of seat rail) had a broken locking tab causing poor contact. Resistance fluctuated between open circuit and 800 Ω (normal: 380–420 Ω). Solution: Replaced the wiring harness connector, re-crimped terminals and secured the harness. Performed Seat Calibration. Fault cleared.

BYD Qin Plus EV seat pressure sensor internal leak

Symptoms: Airbag warning light occasionally flickers when driving on rough roads; stored DTCs B1772-00 and B1650-00. Diagnosis: Live data showed the Occupant Detection signal jumping erratically between 0% and 100%. Removed the seat and found the pressure-sensing bladder (Bladder) cracked at the edge with internal silicone medium leaking; output voltage dropped to 0.8V (normal 2.5V). Resolution: Replaced the driver's seat cushion assembly (including occupant sensor) and performed the seat calibration procedure to learn the pressure baseline.

BYD Tang DM wiring harness damaged after accident repair

Symptom: After left front collision repairs, the airbag warning light stays on constantly and DTC B1772-00 will not clear. Diagnosis: During accident repair, seat removal pinched the yellow SRS harness against the seat rails. Damaged insulation caused an intermittent short between the signal wire and ground. Repair: Cut out the damaged section and spliced in high-temperature flame-retardant flying leads. Insulated with double-layer heat-shrink tubing. Rerouted the harness with 20cm slack. Cleared the fault codes; self-test passed.
