Airbag control unit with part number 95910-AT010

What does the airbag control unit 95910-AT010 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-AT010 is the control centre of the SRS restraint system in Kia. It uses sensors to detect whether an impact has occurred, decides within milliseconds on the triggering, and monitors the system during operation.

A fault is shown via the airbag warning light, so you notice it.

After an accident, the unit stores crash data and is locked afterwards.

Why does the control unit 95910-AT010 fail?

Crash data from an accident are the most common cause when the 95910-AT010 fails, even without an airbag having deployed. They cannot be cleared with an ordinary diagnostic tool; Airbag24 deletes them during the repair. Other causes include ageing, cold solder joints, moisture at plug connections and voltage spikes.

Further causes in detail:

• ageing of electronic components
• cold solder joints
• moisture and corrosion at plug connections
• voltage spikes, for example with a weak battery or after a jump start

A diagnosis determines which cause is present.

How can you tell that the 95910-AT010 is defective?

A defect in the 95910-AT010 reveals itself through the airbag warning light, which stays on permanently or intermittently. In that case, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not be triggered in an emergency.

These signs also occur:

• An error message is shown in the instrument cluster.
• The diagnostic tool receives no connection to the control unit.
• The fault memory cannot be cleared.

The read-out fault memory shows which faults are stored; the light alone does not say so.

For the same vehicles, we also repair control units with the part numbers 95910-Q4000, Q4959-10000.

How does the repair of the 95910-AT010 work?

Pay attention to the sequence at the start, because it serves safety. 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.
