What does the airbag control unit 50574551 do?
The airbag control unit 50574551 is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) for Alfa Romeo. It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and decides in an accident, within milliseconds, which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered.
It monitors the system continuously and reports faults via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself. The manufacturer number Bosch 0285020829 is additionally printed on the housing.
Why does the control unit 50574551 fail?
On the 50574551, the most common cause after an accident is stored crash data, even if no airbag has deployed. Other causes include ageing electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start.
A standard diagnostic tool cannot erase the crash data. Airbag24 removes it during the repair.
How can you tell that the 50574551 is defective?
The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster stays on permanently or intermittently, a fault message appears in the instrument cluster, and the fault memory cannot be cleared. In addition, the diagnostic tool has no connection to the control unit.
In an emergency, the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then fail to deploy. The warning light shows the fault, so have the system checked promptly.
