Airbag control unit with part number 95910-1F310

What does the airbag control unit 95910-1F310 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-1F310 evaluates the crash sensor signals in Kia vehicles and decides in a crash which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered. This decision is made within milliseconds.

The unit also monitors the entire restraint system (SRS) and shows faults via the airbag warning light. After a crash it stores crash data and locks itself; only the repair lifts this lock.

Why does the control unit 95910-1F310 fail?

The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has deployed; a standard diagnostic tool cannot erase it. Other causes are aged components, cold solder joints, moisture at connectors and voltage spikes.

Crash data stays in the unit after an accident, even if the airbag did not deploy. Airbag24 removes it only during the repair.

In addition, ageing of the electronics, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at connectors, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump-start, all play a role.

How can you tell that the 95910-1F310 is defective?

The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster shows the defect by lighting up permanently or intermittently. In addition a fault message appears in the instrument cluster, and the diagnostic tool gets no connection to the control unit.

The fault memory cannot be cleared. The warning light is therefore the most important hint, and you should take it seriously.

In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not deploy. Have the finding checked in a test soon.
