What does the airbag control unit AE83-14B321-EA do?
The AE83-14B321-EA acts as the SRS control unit and controls the restraint system of Ford. It evaluates the crash sensors and determines in an accident which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered.
The decision falls within milliseconds. At the same time the unit monitors the entire system and reports faults via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.
After an accident the control unit stores crash data and locks itself. The lock ends only with the repair.
Why does the control unit AE83-14B321-EA fail?
The most common cause for the AE83-14B321-EA is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag has been triggered. Other causes are ageing electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion at plug connections, and voltage spikes.
Such crash data cannot be cleared with a normal diagnostic tool. Airbag24 removes it as part of the repair.
Ageing components and cold solder joints can also lead to a failure. Moisture and corrosion at plug connections impair the contact.
Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start, additionally stress the control unit.
How can you tell that the AE83-14B321-EA is defective?
The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster lights up on the AE83-14B321-EA permanently or intermittently. In addition a fault message appears, the diagnostic tool finds no connection to the control unit, or the fault memory cannot be cleared.
The airbag warning light in the instrument cluster is the most important sign. It shows that the system has detected a fault and cannot easily be overlooked.
In an emergency, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then possibly not deploy. A defect of this kind should therefore not be left as it is.
