Airbag control unit with part number 95910-A0500

What does the airbag control unit 95910-A0500 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-A0500 is the control unit of the SRS, that is the restraint system in vehicles from Hyundai. It reads the crash sensors, determines in a crash which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners fire, and monitors the system continuously. After an accident it stores crash data and blocks itself.

This decision is made within a window of milliseconds and without any action by the driver.

The control unit also checks continuously whether all components can be reached, and reports faults via the airbag warning light.

Why does the control unit 95910-A0500 fail?

The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even without an airbag deployment. A normal diagnostic tool cannot erase them. Other possible causes are aged components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes.

Let us start with the crash data. They remain in the unit even if no airbag fired after the accident. A read-out shows them but does not remove them.

The other causes concern electronics and connections. Components become more susceptible over time, and solder joints can be cold. Moisture and corrosion disturb the connection at plugs.

Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start, stress the electronics. At Airbag24, stored crash data are erased during the repair.

How can you tell that the 95910-A0500 is defective?

Typical signs are an airbag warning light that stays on permanently or intermittently in the instrument cluster, and an error message in the instrument cluster. If there is no connection to the diagnostic tool, or the fault memory cannot be cleared, this indicates a defect. In an emergency, the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then fail to deploy.

These indications occur individually or together:

• The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster stays on or lights up intermittently.
• An error message appears in the instrument cluster.
• The diagnostic tool does not find the control unit.
• The fault memory cannot be cleared.

Have such warnings checked by a specialist promptly. A warning light that comes on only briefly is no all-clear signal.

Which vehicles is the 95910-A0500 fitted in?

The 95910-A0500 is fitted in these vehicles: Hyundai Creta GS (2014-2017) and GS Facelift (2017-2021). The part number of the unit is decisive.

The list of vehicles follows below:

• Hyundai Creta GS (2014-2017)
• Hyundai Creta GS Facelift (2017-2021)

Two points matter before you send the unit in. Comparing the part number on the label with this page only confirms that the removed unit is the correct one. Reading out the fault memory shows whether the control unit is defective or whether a plug or cable is the cause.

For the same vehicles, we also repair control units with the part numbers 95910-A0000, 95910-A0700.

How does the repair of the 95910-A0500 work?

Have the fault memory read out first and attach the log. Only then disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Airbag24 needs 3–4 working days in the usual case for inspecting, repairing and testing.

Afterwards create a repair order online and send in the unit, well packed.

Airbag24 checks the unit on the test bench, replaces defective components, erases stored crash data and carries out a functional test. Afterwards the unit goes back to you.

Our repairs come with 2 years' statutory liability for defects.

The repaired control unit comes back with all vehicle data and is ready for use as soon as it is refitted — no coding or programming is required.

How does the control unit 95910-A0500 get to Airbag24?

Either you send the unit as a parcel, or you book a UPS collection for an extra charge. UPS handles the return journey: Airbag24 sends the unit back this way after the repair.

Put the printed repair order into the parcel. To ensure the control unit arrives safely, pack it shock-proof.
