Peugeot Traveller airbag control unit repair⁽¹⁾

What should be considered with Peugeot Traveller airbag control units?

The airbag control unit of the Peugeot Traveller evaluates the crash sensors, triggers airbags and belt tensioners and monitors the entire airbag system. If it detects a fault, the airbag warning light comes on. After an accident, the unit stores crash data and locks itself; Airbag24 repairs the control unit you send in.

Because the unit controls the triggering of the airbags, any malfunction is safety-relevant. Removal should be left to a specialist workshop, and home work on the airbag system should be avoided.

During repair, the crash data is erased. Not every control unit can be repaired; whether the unit sent in is repairable only becomes clear after testing.

Which Peugeot Traveller generations are there?

The Peugeot Traveller was built as the I series from 2016 to 2024. Since 2024, the revised I Facelift version has followed; the assignment is made by build year and part number.

The I series is the first version of the model, and the I Facelift is its revised version.

• I (2016–2024) – first series of the Peugeot Traveller
• I Facelift (since 2024) – revised version of the I series

To tell whether your vehicle belongs to the I series or the Facelift, check the build year and the part number on the control unit.

How do I identify my Peugeot Traveller airbag control unit?

The part number on the label of the control unit determines the exact version. Build year and equipment of the vehicle also need to be considered, because control units differ between versions.

The part number is usually printed on the housing or label of the control unit. The following part numbers are known for the Peugeot Traveller:

• 1479489080
• 1481002080
• 1681055580
• 98 039 168 80
• 9817062880

Fault codes such as B1000, B0091 or B1342 (internal fault) may appear in the fault memory. A single code does not yet prove that the control unit itself is faulty; only testing shows the cause.

Which airbag equipment does the Peugeot Traveller have?

According to manufacturer information, front and side airbags for driver and front passenger are standard equipment on the Peugeot Traveller, as are head airbags for driver and front passenger. Curtain or head airbags for the rear rows vary by trim level.

The Peugeot Traveller is a van with several rows of seats, so the number of airbags depends on build year and equipment. The exact equipment of your vehicle is listed in the equipment list for your vehicle identification number.

If the airbag warning light is on, first have the fault memory read out by a specialist workshop. Removal of the control unit should be carried out by a specialist who disconnects the battery beforehand. Then create a repair order online and send in the control 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 required.
