In one example, an imaging device includes stacked first and second substrates. The first substrate has an array of light receiving pixels divisible into pixel blocks and the second substrate has a pixel control portion that controls the pixels. The first substrate includes a first wiring line that transmits a first voltage, a second wiring line that transmits a second voltage, and a fault detection circuit that detects a wiring fault for each pixel block. The fault detection circuit detects a wiring fault by connecting wiring lines corresponding to pixel columns or pixel rows in series in each pixel block, connecting one of the ends of a wiring chain connected in series in each pixel block to the first wiring line, connecting the other end to the second wiring line, and detecting a wiring fault based on a potential at an intermediate position of the wiring chain.
