Lexus LBX airbag control unit repair(1)
1 product
What should be considered for Lexus LBX airbag control units?
The airbag control unit of the Lexus LBX evaluates the signals from the crash sensors, triggers the airbags and seat belt pretensioners, and monitors the entire airbag system. If the system detects a fault, the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster comes on.
After an accident, the control unit stores crash data and locks itself. A defective control unit can impair the function of the entire airbag system.
Airbag24 repairs the control unit you send in, at its workshop in Berlin. During the repair, the crash data is deleted, the unit is checked for faults and defective components are repaired.
Which Lexus LBX generations are there?
The shop currently lists one model series for the Lexus LBX: MAYH10, built since 2023 and still in production.
- MAYH10 (since 2023) – current model series, production ongoing
The Lexus LBX was presented in 2023 and has since been available in Europe as a compact crossover from Lexus.
Within a model series, equipment and installed control units can differ depending on the year of manufacture and version. Before you send in your unit, check the part number and the year of manufacture of your vehicle.
How do I identify my Lexus LBX airbag control unit?
The part number on the label of the control unit determines the exact version. The year of manufacture and equipment of your Lexus LBX are also important.
The label is attached to the removed control unit. The part number shows which version is installed and is therefore the most important point of reference for assignment.
Examples from the fault code list for the Lexus LBX are B1000 (fault in the airbag central sensor or control unit), U0151 (communication with the airbag control unit lost) and B1690 (battery voltage low or interrupted). A single fault code does not prove a defect in the control unit, however. Only the inspection at the workshop shows the cause.
Which airbag equipment does the Lexus LBX have?
According to vehicle databases, the Lexus LBX has front, side, head and driver knee airbags as standard equipment.
This means a driver and passenger airbag, front side airbags, curtain airbags at the front and rear, and a knee airbag on the driver's side. The information comes from vehicle databases, not from a manufacturer document. Which equipment is fitted in your vehicle is shown in its equipment list.
If the airbag warning light stays on, first have the fault memory read out. Then have the battery disconnected and the control unit removed. As the airbag system is safety-relevant, a specialist workshop should carry out this step.
Afterwards, create a repair order online and send the control unit to Airbag24. Processing usually takes 3–4 working days: the unit is checked, repaired and tested.
The repaired control unit comes back with all vehicle data and is ready for use as soon as it is refitted — no coding or programming is required.
