B1752

DTC B1752 indicates a short circuit to battery positive (B+) in the RHS Rear Side Airbag squib circuit — Seal U

Safety System

DTC B1752 indicates a short circuit to battery positive (B+) in the RHS Rear Side Airbag squib circuit.

In the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), normal airbag inflator resistance is 2-3 ohms.

The control unit determines circuit status by monitoring circuit current and voltage drop.

When wiring harness insulation damage causes a short to the 12V power supply wire, the control unit detects an abnormally high potential (near battery voltage) and triggers DTC B1752.

This fault causes the system to disable the affected airbag (fail-safe mode), preventing deployment during a collision.

Additionally, continuous current creates a risk of unintended airbag deployment.

The system classifies this as a level 3 severe fault.

Song MAX: Right rear seat adjustment chafing B-pillar wiring harness

A 2019 Song MAX with 32,000 km had the SRS warning light staying on. Retrieved DTC B1752. Removing the right B-pillar trim revealed the airbag harness sheath at the gap between the seat frame and B-pillar inner lining had worn through, caused by frequent second-row seat adjustments. The exposed copper wires shorted directly to the vehicle power wiring. Repair: Replaced the B-pillar-to-seat wiring harness assembly (part number 4G-5826934), added rubber protective sleeves and cable ties at wear points, and rerouted the harness away from moving parts. The repair cleared the fault. No recurrence at three-month follow-up.

Tang DM airbag connector corroded and shorted after water wading.

2021 Tang DM drove through standing water after heavy rain. The next day, the dashboard displayed 'Check Airbag System'. The scan tool retrieved codes B1752 and B1751 (short to ground). Inspection found the right rear carpet wet. Removing the airbag connector (yellow plug) under the seat revealed mud and water inside; electrolytic corrosion between the terminals created a conductive path. Cleaned the connector with anhydrous alcohol, dried it with compressed air, applied conductive grease, and replaced the waterproof seal. Also checked the sunroof drain tube for blockages to prevent further water ingress. After clearing the codes, the system returned to normal.

Yuan EV wiring harness pinched after accident repair, causing short circuit

A 2019 BYD Yuan EV sustained minor collision damage to the right rear side. Following repairs at an independent workshop, DTC B1752 appeared. Inspection at the dealer revealed that during installation of the B-pillar trim, the technician had trapped the airbag wiring harness between the metal clip and plastic trim panel. Long-term compression damaged the insulation, allowing the harness copper wires to contact the body's 12V constant power wire. Solution: Repaired the damaged harness section, rerouted the wiring to avoid running parallel to the power wire, wrapped it with fleece tape, and installed the trim clips to standard torque. Recoded and calibrated the airbag control unit.

Internal short circuit in right rear side airbag module (Qin Pro)

A 2020 BYD Qin (petrol) flagged a B1752 fault code. After disconnecting the airbag module connector, the harness side measured normal (no short to power), but the airbag module pins measured 0.5 ohms (normal range: 2-3 ohms). This indicated an internal igniter short in the airbag assembly. Replaced the right rear side airbag module (part number SCE-5826910) and the fault cleared. The cause: either the propellant inside the airbag had become damp or a manufacturing defect caused insulation failure between the igniter terminals.

Intermittent fault caused by SRS control unit false alarm

A 2019 Tang intermittently set B1752 on cold starts; the code cleared once warm. The wiring harness tested normal for continuity and insulation. Airbag circuit voltage measured an abnormal 12V during the fault. Inspection revealed slight oxidation on the SRS control unit (ACU) connector pins, causing reference voltage drift in the monitoring circuit. Cleaning the connector, applying electronic contact cleaner, and upgrading the ACU software from V2.1 to V2.3 to optimize the ignition circuit monitoring threshold resolved the issue. The fault has not returned.
