In an occupant detection system, a determination section of an occupant detection ECU determines occupancy status of the seat based on loads applied to the seat. A power supply section of the ECU provides a power supply voltage lower than a battery voltage of the vehicle to load sensors and the determination section. A resistor is connected in a sensor power supply line that connects the load sensors with the power supply section. A zener diode is connected between the resistor and the power supply section through branch connection. A resistance of the resistor is predetermined so that the resistor becomes open when a short occurs and does not affect to dynamic ranges of the load sensors. A breakdown voltage of the zener diode is predetermined between the power supply voltage and a guaranteed voltage of the ECU.
