Omoda 7 airbag control unit repair⁽¹⁾

What should I pay attention to with Omoda 7 airbag control units?

The Omoda 7 airbag control unit evaluates the crash sensors, triggers the airbags and belt tensioners, and monitors the entire airbag system. If it 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.

The airbag system is safety-relevant. A defective control unit can impair the function of the entire system. Work on the airbag system should therefore be carried out by a specialist workshop.

Airbag24 repairs your own control unit that you send in, at its workshop in Berlin. Whether and what work is needed is determined by the inspection after receipt.

Which Omoda 7 generations are there?

The Omoda 7 is currently built in one generation, the 1st generation, which has been in production since 2026. The series is still in production.

Vehicles are assigned to a series by their year of manufacture. Within a generation, trim level and year of manufacture can affect the airbag equipment and the version of the control unit.

• 1st generation (from 2026) – current series, still in production

How do I identify my Omoda 7 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 Omoda 7 are also important for a clear identification.

Note the part number and have the year of manufacture and the vehicle identification number (VIN) ready. Fault codes from the fault memory help with identification, but a single code does not prove a defect. Examples:

• B127F47: crash recording locked (crash memory locked)
• U0151: communication with the restraint system control unit (airbag) lost
• B0001: driver front airbag stage 1, ignition circuit open

Which airbag equipment does the Omoda 7 have?

The Omoda 7 has an extensive airbag system. Test reports list up to eight airbags depending on trim level, including front, side and curtain airbags.

According to the sources reviewed, the equipment includes driver and front passenger airbags, front side airbags and curtain airbags. A centre airbag between the front seats and a driver knee airbag are listed differently depending on the source and trim level. Which airbags are fitted as standard in your vehicle can be found in its equipment list.

If the airbag warning light is on or there has been an accident, first have the fault memory read out at a specialist workshop. The workshop disconnects the battery and removes the control unit.

Then create a repair order online and send the control unit in by parcel. After receipt it is checked, repaired and tested. Processing usually takes 3–4 working days.

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