Airbag control unit with part number 95910-BV210

What does the airbag control unit 95910-BV210 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-BV210 controls the restraint system (SRS) in Kia. It evaluates the crash sensors, decides within milliseconds in an accident whether airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered, and checks the system continuously. It indicates faults via the airbag warning light.

The check runs in the background while you are on the move. The unit verifies that sensors and triggering units are correctly connected.

After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself. This behaviour is part of the function of the system.

Why does the control unit 95910-BV210 fail?

Stored crash data after an accident is the most common cause, even if no airbag has deployed. Other causes are ageing electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes.

Crash data remains stored in the unit. An ordinary diagnostic tool does not erase it, so Airbag24 takes over the erasing during the repair.

Ageing components and cold solder joints can lead to intermittent faults. Moisture and corrosion at plugs worsen the contact, while voltage spikes from a weak battery or jump-starting stress the electronics.

How can you tell that the 95910-BV210 is defective?

The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster lights up permanently or intermittently, and a fault message is displayed. In addition, no diagnostic tool can connect to the control unit, and the fault memory remains in place.

• Airbag warning light on permanently or intermittently
• Fault message in the instrument cluster
• Diagnostic tool receives no connection to the control unit
• Fault memory cannot be cleared

With such signs, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may fail to trigger in an emergency. A prompt check is therefore advisable.

Comparing the part number on the label of the removed unit with this page only confirms that it is the right unit. Whether the control unit is defective or a plug or cable is the cause will only be shown by reading out the fault memory before removal.

For the same vehicles, we also repair control units with the part numbers 80100-Q5600WK, 80100Q5600, 95910-Q5100-95512.
