Airbag control unit with part number 95910-C5150

What does the airbag control unit 95910-C5150 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-C5150 coordinates the restraint system (SRS) of Kia. It evaluates the crash sensors, triggers airbags and seatbelt pretensioners in an accident, and monitors the system continuously. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself.

The monitoring covers the components of the system, and the control unit shows faults via the airbag warning light.

In everyday use it works unnoticed in the background; in an emergency, it decides on triggering.

Why does the control unit 95910-C5150 fail?

The most common cause: crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has deployed; a standard diagnostic tool does not erase it. Further causes are aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes. Airbag24 erases the crash data during the repair.

The control unit creates crash data after an accident event, even if no airbag has deployed.

Aged electronic components, cold solder joints and moisture at plug connections can trigger faults, and corrosion further impairs the contact.

Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start, stress the electronics.

How can you tell that the 95910-C5150 is defective?

The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster lights up permanently or intermittently. A fault message appears in the instrument cluster when the control unit detects a defect in the 95910-C5150. In addition, the diagnostic tool has no connection to the control unit, and the fault memory cannot be erased.

In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may therefore fail to deploy.

Have the vehicle checked promptly as soon as the light comes on.

You compare the part number on the label of the removed unit with this page; this ensures that it is the matching unit. Have the fault memory read out beforehand, because only this result shows whether the control unit is defective or whether a plug or a cable is the cause.

How does the repair of the 95910-C5150 work?

First have the fault memory read out and attach the log, then disconnect the battery. Only after that do you remove the control unit, and then create a repair order online. Then send the unit in, carefully packed.

Airbag24 checks the unit on the test bench, replaces defective components, erases the stored crash data and carries out a function test. Afterwards, you get your own unit back.

This period applies only to checking, repairing and testing.

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-C5150 get to Airbag24?

You can send the control unit 95910-C5150 as a parcel or book a UPS collection for an extra charge. The return after the repair runs via UPS.

A printed repair order goes into the parcel, and you pack the unit shock-proof.
