Xpeng G7 airbag control unit repair⁽¹⁾

What should be considered with Xpeng G7 airbag control units?

The airbag control unit of the Xpeng G7 evaluates the crash sensors, triggers the airbags and seat belt pretensioners, and monitors the entire system. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself. Airbag24 repairs the control unit you send in.

A defective control unit can impair the function of the entire airbag system. If the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster comes on, the system is reporting a fault that should be checked. Typical causes are an accident with stored crash data, ageing of the electronics, moisture on connectors and overvoltage in the vehicle electrical system.

After an accident, the repair includes erasing the crash data. Work on the airbag system is safety-relevant and belongs in the hands of a specialist workshop. Anyone who works on the airbag system themselves endangers their own safety.

Which Xpeng G7 generations are there?

According to the information available to us, the Xpeng G7 is listed as one generation that has been built since 2026. The build year and part number are therefore decisive for your control unit. The series is still in production.

The Xpeng G7 has been available in Europe since early 2026. Software and hardware versions of vehicles of this type can change over the course of production. Please check the details of your vehicle before sending the unit in.

• G7 (since 2026) – current series, still in production.

How do I identify my Xpeng G7 airbag control unit?

The part number on the label of the control unit determines the exact version. The build year and the vehicle identification number (VIN) also matter, because equipment can vary within a series. Comparing these details prevents mix-ups.

Check the label before sending the unit in and compare it with the details of your vehicle. The build year of your Xpeng G7 and the full VIN from your vehicle documents help with this.

Checked sources list the fault codes U0151, B0001 and B16201B as examples for the Xpeng G7. A single code does not prove a defect in the control unit, however. Only a complete readout and check of the fault memory shows whether the control unit is affected.

What airbag equipment does the Xpeng G7 have?

The exact number and arrangement of airbags in the Xpeng G7 depend on equipment and version. Front, side and head airbags are usually part of the standard equipment in vehicles of this class. The equipment list or the manufacturer's data sheet shows which modules your vehicle has.

Whether additional modules such as knee, hip or centre airbags are fitted depends on the version. The part number of the control unit indicates the matching version.

The airbag control unit controls all of these modules centrally. The vehicle-specific data stays on your own unit after the repair.

The repair works as follows: have the fault memory read out, disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Then create a repair order online and send the unit to Airbag24.

Processing usually takes 3–4 working days: we check the unit, repair it and test it afterwards.

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