Nahm's conjecture relates $q$-hypergeometric modular functions to torsion elements in the Bloch group. An interesting class of such functions can be (conjecturally) obtained from a pair of Dynkin diagrams of $ADET$ type. Using properties of Y-system, we prove that for a matrix of the form $A=C(X) \otimes C(X')^{-1}$ where $C(X)$ and $C(X')$ are one of $ADET$ Cartan matrices, every solution of the equation $x=(1-x)^A$ gives rise to a torsion element of the Bloch group.
