Airbag control unit with part number 95910-D9100

What does the airbag control unit 95910-D9100 do?

The unit 95910-D9100 coordinates the restraint system (SRS) in Kia. It detects an impact via the crash sensors and within milliseconds determines which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners fire. Faults appear on the airbag warning light.

The electronics check the system's components continuously while the vehicle is in use. This covers the sensors, the wiring and the triggers.

If an accident is registered, the unit writes crash data to its memory and then locks itself.

Why does the control unit 95910-D9100 fail?

The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has been triggered. Ageing, moisture and voltage spikes also come into consideration as causes.

• ageing electronic components
• cold solder joints
• moisture and corrosion on plug connectors
• voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting

Crash data cannot be removed with an ordinary diagnostic tool. Airbag24 deletes it during the repair.

The remaining points concern components that age and connections where moisture acts.

How can you tell that the 95910-D9100 is defective?

The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster lights up permanently or intermittently. In addition there are error messages in the instrument cluster, no connection between the diagnostic tool and the control unit, or a fault memory that cannot be cleared. Then airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not deploy in an emergency.

The light is a direct indication from the system of a fault. Even if the light goes out again, an entry may remain in the memory.

So if you notice any of these signs, have the fault memory read out.
