Airbag control unit with part number 1370980080

What does the airbag control unit 1370980080 do?

The airbag control unit 1370980080 controls the restraint system (SRS) for Fiat and Opel: it evaluates the crash sensors, decides within milliseconds in an accident on airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, and monitors everything continuously.

It reports faults via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.

After an accident the unit records crash data and locks itself.

Why does the control unit 1370980080 fail?

The most common cause for the 1370980080 is crash data from an accident, even without an airbag having triggered. Ageing, contact problems and voltage spikes are added.

A normal diagnostic tool cannot clear this. Airbag24 removes these entries during the repair.

Further causes include:

• electronics that age over time
• cold solder joints
• moisture and corrosion on plug connectors
• voltage spikes when starting or during jump-starting

How can you tell that the 1370980080 is defective?

You recognise a defect in the 1370980080 by several signs, first of all the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.

Typical signs are:

• The airbag light stays on or keeps coming back on.
• The instrument cluster displays a warning about the airbag system.
• The diagnostic tool does not find the control unit.
• The fault memory cannot be reset.

In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may fail to trigger in this condition. Take these signs seriously.
