BYD Qin PRO-DM: BSG cannot start the engine; concurrent P180396/P180496/P180596 case

Symptoms

  • After accident-related wiring repairs, the BSG cannot start the engine; only the conventional starter motor can start it. [1]

Diagnostic trouble codes

  • P180396 (manufacturer): BSG phase A missing (current fault, Fig.1) [1]
  • P180496 (manufacturer): BSG phase B missing (Fig.1; the webpage body incorrectly prints GSG) [1]
  • P180596 (manufacturer): BSG phase C missing (current fault, Fig.1) [1]
  • P180F19 (manufacturer): Hardware overcurrent (historical fault in this case, Fig.1) [1]

Possible causes

  • The case found that the BSG high-voltage busbar fastening screw was loose and burnt, and ultimately confirmed damage to the BSG controller; motor damage was not diagnosed directly from the missing-phase codes. [1]

Checks

  • First check low-voltage power supply, grounds, communication and BSG live data; high-voltage fuse, busbar and phase-circuit checks must only be performed by professionals following model-specific power isolation, absence-of-voltage verification and protection procedures. Do not copy the case's energised measurements. [1]

What to do

  • The original case confirmed assembly damage and restored operation after BSG controller replacement; verify BSG starting and current fault status after repair. [1]

Applicability and limits

  • Source limits: BYD Qin PRO-DM, 2018 model year; BYD476ZQA engine; accident-repair context. The 4 codes belong to a single case; do not split them into separate articles to inflate the count. For inspection clues only; related parts do not constitute a replacement recommendation. No vehicle model has been linked; do not assume applicability to other models of the same brand. Scope: unknown [1]
