Airbag control unit with part number 600237200

What does the airbag control unit 600237200 do?

The airbag control unit 600237200 is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) for Peugeot. It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and decides in an emergency, within milliseconds, which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered. It shows detected faults via the airbag warning light.

The unit monitors the entire system continuously and checks the connected components for their function. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself.

Why does the control unit 600237200 fail?

The most common cause is stored crash data after an accident, even if no airbag was triggered. An ordinary diagnostic tool cannot delete it. Other causes are aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion on plug connections, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting.

Airbag24 deletes the crash data during the repair. The other causes relate to the ageing and wear of the electronics, poor contact in connections and electrical loads.

How can you tell that the 600237200 is defective?

A defect shows itself on the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster, which stays on permanently or intermittently, and on an error message in the instrument cluster. In addition, the diagnostic tool gets no connection to the control unit, and the fault memory cannot be cleared.

As long as these signs are present, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may possibly fail to trigger in an emergency. The light indicates the fault, so have it checked promptly.
