4.8What is an Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH airbag control unit?
The airbag control unit in the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS). It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and, in an accident, decides within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners deploy. It also monitors the system continuously and reports faults via the airbag warning light.
The control unit is installed in the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH (2009 to 2018). It comes from Continental. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself.
As long as the control unit works without faults, you will not notice it. It only becomes an issue when the warning light comes on or a diagnostic tool finds an entry.
Why is the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH airbag control unit defective?
The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag deployed. Other causes are aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion on connectors, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting.
Typical signs are an airbag warning light that stays on permanently, a fault memory that cannot be cleared, or a diagnostic tool that cannot connect to the control unit. Stored crash data cannot be removed with an ordinary diagnostic tool. This also applies if no airbag deployed in the accident.
A control unit that no longer responds is not necessarily a sign of an accident. Even without an accident, ageing, moisture or a voltage spike in the vehicle electrical system can damage the electronics. Only the inspection in the workshop clarifies which cause applies to your unit.
Common error codes for Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH airbag control unit repair
First you read the error codes from the fault memory with a diagnostic tool; after that, you can work out what they mean. They indicate internal control unit faults, communication failures, voltage problems or stored crash events.
When reading, the diagnostic tool shows the code and usually a short text. For the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH, these codes occur, among others, and are listed here with their meaning.
- 0132 → Internal component fault, initialisation failed
- 0131 → Internal component fault, initialisation failed
- CFFF → Internal fault of the restraint system control unit
- 013B → Several crash events stored in crash memory
- 0128 → Configuration signal of the central electronics failed
- 0005 → Battery voltage too low
- 0006 → Battery voltage too high
- 0156 → Supply voltage to the central electronics deviates
Error codes are read out with a diagnostic tool. A code alone does not reliably show that the control unit is defective. Connectors, wiring or an airbag module can also be the cause. Only the inspection clarifies where the fault actually lies. It helps to enclose the read-out report with the unit you send in.
What part numbers are available for the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH airbag control unit repair?
The part number is on the label of the control unit and determines its exact version. Within a model series there are different numbers depending on equipment and year of manufacture. Read the number from your own unit, therefore.
The following list names known part numbers for the Aston Martin V12 Vantage VH. It makes no claim to completeness.
- CG43-37-11330
- DD33-14C246-AA (Continental)
Compare the number on your own unit with the list. This only ensures that it is the right unit. Whether it is defective is shown only by reading out the fault memory or by the inspection. First have the fault memory read out, disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Then create a repair order online and send in the unit. Processing at Airbag24, with inspection, repair 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.
