B0105Sensor Cleaning Air Blower Actuator B Control Relay

  • Generic OBD-II code · Body
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
B0105 is the relay fault on the B side of the sensor-cleaning air supply. If B is a compressor rather than a small fan, as in Uber's patent where a compressor charges an accumulator and recharges once pressure drops to roughly 130–140 psi, the relay carries a sizable inrush current, and pitted contacts become the usual weak point. HELLA lists change-over and make relays for motors such as fans and names the checks: dropout voltage, contact drop, coil resistance. AUMOVIO stresses that air keeps a lidar usable in bad weather by blowing off droplets, so a stuck relay shows up first in rain. No carmaker has published B0105 or what B supplies.
What you may notice
  • Blower or compressor B does not start, or will not switch off
  • Droplets stay on sensor windows in rain
  • Assistance functions drop out when a sensor is reported blocked
Likely causes
  • LikelyContacts of relay B pitted by high motor or compressor inrush current
  • PossibleRelay B coil or its suppression diode failed
  • RareCorroded relay socket or wrong relay type fitted
Repair
Easy · Often possible to do yourself.Typical cost: €20 – €250
