What is an Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit?

When you switch on the ignition in the Abarth 595 312 and the airbag warning light comes on briefly, the airbag control unit is running its self-test. It is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS). In an emergency it decides within milliseconds which restraint devices fire, including airbags and seatbelt pretensioners. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself.

While you drive, the SRS control unit continuously processes the readings from the crash sensors and at the same time monitors itself and the connected squib circuits. If it detects a fault, the warning light stays on and the entry is saved in the fault memory.

The unit is fitted in the Abarth 595 312 in the since 2012 model series. It is supplied by Continental.

Why is the Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit defective?

The most common cause is an accident: it leaves crash data in the memory of the Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit, even if no airbag was deployed. Other causes include ageing of the electronics, cold solder joints, corrosion or moisture at connectors, and voltage spikes.

A standard diagnostic tool cannot remove such entries, regardless of how minor the accident was.

Regardless of any accident, electronics wear out: components age, and solder joints become cold over time. Corrosion or moisture at the connectors distorts signals. A weak battery or jump-starting can also create voltage spikes that damage sensitive components.

How you can recognise a defect: the airbag warning light stays on permanently, the fault memory cannot be cleared, or the diagnostic tool cannot connect to the control unit.

Common error codes for Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit repair

The codes for the Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit report two kinds of faults: a loss of communication with the control unit and an interrupted squib circuit of an airbag. Which message appears depends on the particular fault.

These codes are known for the model, each with its meaning:

  • U0151 → Communication with the airbag control unit lost
  • B0001 → Driver airbag: squib circuit interrupted (open circuit)

Error codes are read out with a diagnostic tool. A single code does not allow you to conclude with certainty that the control unit is defective. An airbag module, a connector or a wire can also be the cause. Only the inspection clarifies which part is affected.

What part numbers are available for the Abarth 595 312 airbag control unit repair?

You will find the part number on the label of your control unit; it determines the exact version. Depending on equipment and year of manufacture, the numbers differ within the same model series, and several are known for the Abarth 595 312.

The next list shows the known part numbers for this vehicle; it is not exhaustive:

  • 51848079
  • 51918659
  • 51963734 (Continental)
  • 52191343

Compare the number on your unit with the list. This only ensures that you have the right unit in front of you. Whether a defect exists only becomes clear from reading out the fault memory or from the inspection.

How to get your repair started: have the fault memory read out, disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Then create the repair order online and send in the unit. Processing at Airbag24, covering checking, repairing and testing, usually takes 3–4 working days.

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.
