What should you know about Maybach 62 airbag control units?
The airbag control unit of the Maybach 62 evaluates the crash sensors and controls the airbags and belt tensioners. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself. Work on the airbag system should therefore be left to a specialist workshop.
The control unit monitors the entire airbag system, including the sensors and firing circuits, and reports detected faults via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster. If the warning light stays on, the fault memory should be read out before the unit is removed.
Airbag24 repairs the control unit you send in. The repair works by mail-in: you send the removed unit to us by parcel. During the repair the crash data is erased, the unit is checked, faults are rectified as far as possible, and the unit is tested afterwards.
Which Maybach 62 generations are there?
The Maybach 62 is covered by the V240 Limousine series, which was built from 2002 to 2013. Series and year of manufacture help narrow down which control unit version fits your vehicle.
The Maybach 62 is listed as the V240 Limousine. If you know the year of manufacture of your vehicle, you can classify the control unit more quickly and assign the right version.

How do I identify my Maybach 62 airbag control unit?
The part number on the label of the control unit specifies the exact version. Together with the year of manufacture and the equipment of your vehicle, the unit can be assigned clearly.
The part number is therefore the most important reference point, because it identifies the variant of the control unit. If the label is no longer legible, the year of manufacture and the vehicle identification number (VIN) help with the assignment.
An error code alone does not prove a defect. Examples from the fault memory include these codes:
- 9000: control unit N2/7 (restraint system) defective
- 9076: CAN communication disturbed
- 9002: N2/7, circuit 15R: no voltage although terminal 15 is present
Which airbag equipment does the Maybach 62 have?
The Maybach 62 was equipped as standard with front airbags for driver and front passenger, side airbags and curtain airbags. Further airbags depend on the year of manufacture and equipment.
According to manufacturer information, the two front airbags are adaptive, use two-stage gas generators and are triggered according to the severity of the impact. Side airbags are fitted at every seat position, and curtain airbags protect the head along the side windows. Which airbags are fitted in your vehicle can be checked using the VIN.
The route to repair: the fault memory is read out, the battery is disconnected and the control unit is removed, ideally by a specialist workshop. Then create a repair order online and send in the unit. 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 reinstallation. No coding or programming is needed.
