Airbag control unit with part number 86250-34182

What does the airbag control unit 86250-34182 do?

The airbag control unit 86250-34182 controls the SRS system of SsangYong. It measures the signals from the crash sensors, assesses an accident within fractions of a second and releases the deployment of airbags and seatbelt pretensioners. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself.

The unit continuously checks its surroundings for faults. If it finds a fault, this appears via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.

In this way it forms the link between sensors and restraint devices.

Why does the control unit 86250-34182 fail?

The most common cause for 86250-34182 is an accident whose crash data has remained in the unit, even without a deployed airbag. Further causes are aging components, cold solder joints, moisture at plug connections and voltage spikes.

A normal diagnostic tool does not touch the crash data. Airbag24 erases it during the repair.

Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or when a jump-start cable is connected, additionally stress the circuit.

How can you tell that the 86250-34182 is defective?

A defect in the 86250-34182 can be identified by several signs that appear directly in the vehicle and on the diagnostic tool.

• Airbag warning light stays on permanently or intermittently
• Fault message in the instrument cluster
• Missing connection between diagnostic tool and control unit
• Fault memory cannot be cleared

In a crash, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then fail to deploy, so a check is advisable.
