Airbag control unit with part number 95910-Q4300

What does the airbag control unit 95910-Q4300 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-Q4300 carries out the evaluation of the restraint system in Kia vehicles. It evaluates the crash sensors, determines within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners fire, and checks the system constantly. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself.

Faults in the system are indicated by the airbag warning light, which is located in the instrument cluster.

The monitoring runs in the background, which is why the function remains invisible in everyday use.

Why does the control unit 95910-Q4300 fail?

Most often, stored crash data is present that arose after an accident, even without an airbag firing; normal diagnostic tools cannot remove it. Aged electronics, cold solder joints, corrosion and moisture at plugs, and voltage spikes from a weak battery or jump start are also possible causes.

Crash data can also arise in accidents in which no airbag fires.

Aged components and cold solder joints lead to intermittent contact faults that do not always occur together. Such faults are therefore hard to narrow down.

Corrosion and moisture at plug connections disrupt the current flow. Voltage spikes also stress the electronics.

How can you tell that the 95910-Q4300 is defective?

Signs include an airbag warning light in the instrument cluster that lights up permanently or intermittently. Fault messages in the instrument cluster, no contact with the diagnostic tool, and a fault memory that cannot be cleared are added. In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then fail to trigger.

The warning light signals a fault that the system has detected itself, and it can be recognised without tools.

A broken cable can also prevent the diagnostic tool from reaching the control unit.

• Kia Niro DE (2016-2022)

Comparing the part number on the label with this page only confirms that it is the correct unit. Only the fault memory read out beforehand shows whether the control unit itself or a plug or cable is causing the fault.

For the same vehicles, we also repair control units with the part numbers 95910-G5000, 95910-G5100, 95910-G5200, 95910-G5400, 95910-G5500, 95910-H2000.

How does the repair of the 95910-Q4300 work?

First have the fault memory read out and attach the log, then disconnect the battery and only then remove the control unit. Then create a repair order online and send in the well-packed unit. Processing at Airbag24 usually takes 3–4 working days.

Airbag24 then inspects the assembly, repairs the damage to the components, erases the crash data and tests the function.

The unit then 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-Q4300 get to Airbag24?

You send the unit as a parcel or arrange a UPS collection for an extra charge. After the repair, it comes back to you by UPS.

Enclose the printed repair order with the parcel, and pack the control unit shock-proof.
