Airbag control unit with part number 95910-Q6400

What does the airbag control unit 95910-Q6400 do?

The airbag control unit 95910-Q6400 is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) in the Kia. It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and decides in a crash within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered. It monitors the system continuously and reports faults via the airbag warning light.

The control unit works constantly in the background, checking sensors, wiring and the connected seatbelt pretensioners. Only in this way can the system react reliably in an emergency.

After an accident, the control unit stores crash data and locks itself. Only the repair lifts this lock.

Why does the control unit 95910-Q6400 fail?

The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has deployed. Further causes are ageing electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start.

• Crash data that cannot be erased with an ordinary diagnostic tool
• Ageing electronic components
• Cold solder joints on the circuit board
• Moisture and corrosion at plug connections
• Voltage spikes from a weak battery or a jump start

Crash data also arises when the airbag does not deploy. Airbag24 erases it during the repair, while Airbag24 checks the other causes on the test bench.

How can you tell that the 95910-Q6400 is defective?

The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster lights up permanently or intermittently, an error message appears in the instrument cluster, the diagnostic tool receives no connection to the control unit, or the fault memory cannot be cleared. In such cases, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may not trigger in an emergency.

The airbag warning light is the most important warning sign your vehicle gives you. It lights up as long as the fault exists, and an intermittent light is just as serious.

Do not ignore such a display. The restraint system may no longer work as intended in the event of a fault, and a test brings clarity.

Compare the part number on the label of the removed unit with this page, so that you can be sure you have the right unit. Also have the fault memory read out, because only this result shows whether the control unit itself is the cause or whether a plug or cable is.

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

How does the repair of the 95910-Q6400 work?

First have the fault memory read out and attach the log. Then disconnect the battery, remove the control unit, create a repair order online and send in the well-packed unit.

The order matters: the battery is disconnected before removal, not after.

Airbag24 tests the unit on the test bench, replaces defective components, erases stored crash data and carries out a function test. Afterwards your own unit goes back to you. Processing at Airbag24 usually takes 3–4 working days, meaning testing, repair and function test.

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-Q6400 get to Airbag24?

You send the control unit as a parcel, or you book a UPS collection for an extra charge. After the repair, Airbag24 sends your own unit back to you by UPS.

Put the printed repair order into the parcel and pack the control unit shock-proof.
