Airbag control unit with part number 95910-1W310

What does the airbag control unit 95910-1W310 do?

In Kia vehicles, the airbag control unit 95910-1W310 takes over control of the restraint system (SRS). It evaluates the crash sensors, determines in an accident within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered, and monitors the system continuously. Faults are reported via the airbag warning light.

The unit checks connections and sensors for plausibility. If something is noticed, it creates an entry in the fault memory.

After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself.

Why does the control unit 95910-1W310 fail?

In the 95910-1W310, stored crash data is the most common cause, even if no airbag was triggered. An ordinary diagnostic tool cannot erase it. Other triggers are aged electronics, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion on plugs, and voltage spikes, for example from jump-starting.

Crash data remains stored in the unit after an accident, and Airbag24 removes it during the repair.

Apart from that, ageing, poor solder joints, moisture and rust in the plugs, and voltage spikes from the vehicle electrical system have an effect.

How can you tell that the 95910-1W310 is defective?

The airbag system warning light is the first sign of a problem with the 95910-1W310: it either stays on constantly or keeps coming back on. In addition, there may be displays in the instrument cluster, a broken contact to the diagnostic tool, and a fault memory that cannot be emptied. In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not trigger.

The following signs point to a defect:

• Warning light on permanently or repeatedly active
• Display in the instrument cluster
• Diagnostic tool cannot reach the control unit
• Fault memory cannot be emptied

If the warning light is on, the control unit is the source of the message. A prompt check of the vehicle is then advisable.
