Xpeng G3 airbag control unit repair⁽¹⁾

What should I know about Xpeng G3 airbag control units?

The airbag control unit of the Xpeng G3 evaluates the crash sensors, triggers the airbags and belt tensioners, and reports faults via the airbag warning light. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself. Airbag24 repairs the control unit you send in.

The Xpeng G3 is an electric SUV from the Xpeng brand. The airbag control unit is central to occupant protection: in an emergency it decides when the airbags are deployed and monitors the entire system.

A defective control unit can impair the function of the entire airbag system and switch on the airbag warning light. At Airbag24, crash data is erased in the workshop and the control unit is repaired. The airbag system is safety-relevant. Please leave any work on it to a qualified specialist.

Which Xpeng G3 generations are there?

For the Xpeng G3 we list one series: the G3, built from 2020 to 2022. The electric SUV was first delivered in Europe in 2020, initially in Norway.

Equipment can vary within the series depending on the market and trim level. The part number on the control unit shows which version is installed in your vehicle.

How do I identify my Xpeng G3 airbag control unit?

The part number on the label of the control unit determines the exact version. The year of manufacture and the equipment of your vehicle also help with the assignment.

The vehicle's year of manufacture and its vehicle identification number (VIN) are also useful. The part number on the unit itself is a central reference point.

Fault codes can give clues, for example U0151 for lost communication with the airbag control unit, or B0001 and B0002 for a disturbed ignition circuit control of the driver airbag. A fault code alone does not prove a defect. Only testing shows whether the control unit is affected.

What airbag equipment does the Xpeng G3 have?

The airbag equipment of the Xpeng G3 depends on the market and the trim level. For the versions offered in Norway, six airbags are reported.

For an entry-level version offered in China, reports cite four airbags without side curtain airbags. The equipment list of your vehicle or a specialist workshop shows which airbags are actually fitted.

The airbag control unit controls the airbags and belt tensioners of the vehicle. Regardless of the equipment, the repair follows the same steps: have the fault memory read out and disconnect the battery. Then remove the control unit, ideally with the help of a specialist workshop. Create a repair order online and send the control unit to us. Processing usually takes 3–4 working days: we inspect, repair and test the unit.

The repaired control unit comes back with all vehicle data and is ready for use immediately after reinstallation — no coding or programming is necessary.
