Chrysler Vision airbag control unit repair⁽¹⁾

What should be considered with Chrysler Vision airbag control units?

The airbag control unit of the Chrysler Vision evaluates the crash sensors, triggers the airbags and belt tensioners, and monitors the entire airbag system. If it detects a fault, it reports it via the airbag warning light. Airbag24 repairs your own control unit that you send in.

After an accident, the control unit stores crash data and locks itself. It should not be opened by yourself, because the airbag system is safety-relevant and belongs in the hands of a specialist workshop.

At Airbag24, the crash data are professionally deleted, faults are checked and the unit is repaired.

Which Chrysler Vision generations are there?

Our vehicle database lists the Chrysler Vision with a single series: LH, built from 1993 to 1997. The model was built in North America; in Europe it was sold under the name Chrysler Vision.

For the exact match, however, the part number counts, not the series alone.

• LH (1993–1997): the only series in our vehicle database, built on the LH platform.

How do I identify my Chrysler Vision airbag control unit?

The part number on the label of the control unit determines the exact version. Check it together with the model year and equipment of your Chrysler Vision before sending the unit in.

The label is located on the control unit itself. The vehicle identification number (VIN) further narrows down the matching variant. For this model the following part number is on record (without claim to completeness):

• P04759742

Fault codes also help with classification. The following codes are on record for this model as examples:

• B1B02: driver airbag ignition circuit 1 interrupted
• U0151: communication with the airbag control unit (ORC) lost
• B2207: second internal fault in the airbag control unit (ORC)

A single fault code does not prove a defect, however. Only an inspection of the control unit clarifies the cause.

What airbag equipment does the Chrysler Vision have?

The Chrysler Vision came as standard with front airbags for the driver and front passenger. Which further airbags are fitted in your vehicle depends on equipment and specification and can be checked in the vehicle documents.

The control unit triggers the front airbags via their own ignition circuits. A fault in one of these circuits is stored in the fault memory. In a crash it coordinates the deployment of the airbags, so a fully functional unit is essential for occupant protection.

The route to repair: have the fault memory read out. Then a workshop disconnects the battery and removes the control unit. Create a repair order online and send the unit to Airbag24. The repair takes place in our workshop in Berlin; processing usually takes 3–4 working days (checking, repairing, testing).

The repaired control unit returns with all vehicle data and is ready for use immediately after refitting — no coding or programming is required.
