What does the airbag control unit P68186643AD do?

Within the restraint system (SRS) of Jeep, the airbag control unit P68186643AD evaluates the crash sensors. In an accident it decides which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners are triggered. It reports faults via the airbag warning light, and after a crash it stores crash data and locks itself.

Monitoring takes place continuously while the vehicle is in operation.

Why does the control unit P68186643AD fail?

Crash data stored after an accident is the most common cause, even if no airbag was deployed; a normal diagnostic tool cannot erase it. Other causes are aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion on plug connections, and voltage spikes.

Airbag24 erases crash data during the repair.

Voltage spikes arise, for example, from a weak battery or when a jump start is connected, and put additional strain on the electronics.

How can you tell that the P68186643AD is defective?

A defect shows up as the airbag warning light, which stays on permanently or intermittently, as an error message in the instrument cluster, as a lack of connection to the diagnostic tool, and as a fault memory that cannot be cleared. In an emergency the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners may then not deploy.

Signs like these are a clear reason to have the system checked.

Which vehicles is the P68186643AD fitted in?

The P68186643AD is fitted in these vehicles: Jeep Compass MK (2007-2010) and MK Facelift (2011-2016).

The vehicles listed for this part number are in this list:

  • Jeep Compass MK (2007-2010)
  • Jeep Compass MK Facelift (2011-2016)

Compare the part number on the label of the removed unit with this page. This comparison only shows that you have the right unit in front of you. Have the fault memory read out beforehand, because it shows whether the control unit is defective or whether a plug or cable is the cause.

For the same vehicles, we also repair control units with the part numbers P68186642AD.

How does the repair of the P68186643AD work?

You start by reading out the fault memory and attach the log. Then disconnect the battery; only after that do you remove the control unit. Finally create a repair order online and pack the unit well for shipping.

Airbag24 checks the unit on the test bench, repairs defective components and carries out a function test. Airbag24 also erases the stored crash data. Processing usually takes 3–4 working days.

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.

You send the unit by parcel to Airbag24, or you book a UPS collection for an extra charge. It comes back to you by UPS after the repair.
