Airbag control unit Fiat 500 was broken. Hard to believe but they can really repair it! Recommendation!!
Automatically translated · Original: German
From the first phone call, the order processing, to the shipping, everything was done very quickly and professionally. Now I still have to send the repaired unit to the Swedish workshop and then hopefully the Honda can finally pass the HU there again (failed because of the red airbag light). Thanks to Airbag 24 in Berlin 👍👏. Gerd

What is an Audi TTS 8S Roadster airbag control unit?
The airbag control unit in the Audi TTS 8S Roadster is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS). It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors. In an accident, it decides within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners to deploy.
The control unit monitors the system continuously. It reports faults via the airbag warning light. After an accident, it stores crash data and locks itself.
It is fitted in the Audi TTS 8S Roadster (2015 to 2023). As a restraint system, it works together with the vehicle's sensors, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners and checks their connections at every start. This self-test is the reason why a fault in the system becomes visible immediately.
Why is the Audi TTS 8S Roadster airbag control unit defective?
The most common cause is crash data from an accident. It stays stored even if no airbag deployed, and cannot be erased with an ordinary diagnostic tool. Other causes are aged components, cold solder joints, moisture, corrosion on connectors and voltage spikes.
Electronic components age. Solder joints can turn cold. Moisture and corrosion attack the connectors. A weak battery or a jump start can create voltage spikes.
A typical sign is an airbag warning light that stays on permanently. The fault memory cannot be erased. Sometimes the diagnostic tool cannot connect to the control unit. The vehicle can still be driven, but the restraint system is not ready for use. Have the system checked in that case, because a locked control unit will not deploy anything in an emergency.
Common error codes for Audi TTS 8S Roadster airbag control unit repair
The error codes on the Audi TTS 8S Roadster show where the airbag system is disturbed. They point to internal control unit faults, the power supply or individual squib circuits.
These error codes are common on this vehicle. If your diagnostic tool shows one of them, make a note of it and enclose the report with the control unit you send in later.
- 65535 → Internal control unit fault
- 00532 → Supply voltage too low, intermittent
- 00588 → Driver airbag squib circuit, resistance fault
- 00590 → Passenger airbag squib circuit, second stage
- 01217 → Driver-side side airbag squib circuit, resistance fault
- 01218 → Passenger-side side airbag squib circuit, resistance fault
A diagnostic tool reads out the error codes. A code alone does not prove that the control unit is defective. Connectors, wiring or an airbag module can also be the cause. The inspection provides clarity.
What part numbers are available for the Audi TTS 8S Roadster airbag control unit repair?
The part number is on the label of the control unit. It determines the exact version. On the Audi TTS 8S Roadster there are different numbers depending on equipment and year of manufacture.
Here you can see known part numbers. The list is not complete. If you do not find your number there, that is no reason to worry, because the versions differ from vehicle to vehicle.
- 5Q0959655P
- 5Q0959655R
Compare the number on your unit with the list. This only ensures that it is the right unit. Whether it is defective is only shown by reading out the fault memory or by the inspection at Airbag24.
Here is how to proceed: Have the fault memory read out and disconnect the battery. Then remove the control unit, create a repair order online and send the unit in. Processing at Airbag24, including inspecting, 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.
