What is a Citroën C3 II airbag control unit?

The Citroën C3 II airbag control unit is your vehicle's central safety unit. It continuously monitors sensors, stores important crash data, and controls the activation of all airbags and seatbelt pretensioners in the event of a collision. Immediate Citroën C3 II airbag control unit repair is crucial in the event of a malfunction.

This electronic component is specifically designed for Citroën C3 II (SC series) models built from 2009 onwards. It is the brain that determines safety inside the vehicle.

It receives signals from impact sensors and, if necessary, instantly triggers the appropriate restraint systems. Without a functioning control unit, the airbag system is inactive.

Why is the Citroën C3 II airbag control unit defective?

A Citroën C3 II airbag control unit often fails due to internal memory errors, communication problems, or damage after an accident. The airbag warning light may then illuminate and the system may no longer function properly, necessitating immediate Citroën C3 II airbag control unit repair.

Internal system errors, such as faulty memory areas, can impair the functionality of the control unit. This often leads to a complete failure of the airbag system.

After an accident, the control unit is usually locked with crash data and must be reset. Otherwise, it cannot resume its primary safety function.

Communication problems in the CAN bus, such as cable breaks or short circuits, can also make the control unit appear defective. A precise diagnosis is essential in this case.

Common error codes for Citroën C3 II airbag control unit repair

When repairing the Citroën C3 II airbag control unit, specific error codes such as B0001, B1000, and U2601 are crucial for diagnosis. These codes directly indicate problems in the control unit or its directly connected components and require professional troubleshooting.

  • B0001 → Airbag control unit internal error → Defective memory areas or software errors in the control unit.
  • B1000 → Control unit communication error → Problems in the data transmission between the control unit and other vehicle components.
  • U2601 → Driver side airbag firing circuit fault → Open circuit in the driver side airbag firing circuit, often caused by a defective slip ring.

What part numbers are available for the Citroën C3 II airbag control unit repair?

For Citroën C3 II airbag control unit repairs, several verified OEM part numbers are relevant to ensure compatibility with your vehicle. The correct part number is crucial for replacement or repair and must exactly match your existing control unit.

  • 9673657880 (Citroën / Autoliv)
  • 6546T7 / 00006546T7 (Citroën)
  • 96667324XT (Citroën)
  • 9656888580 (Citroën C3 Pluriel)
  • 96 477 941 80 (Temic/Siemens)

How do I recognize a defective airbag system?

The most obvious sign is the illuminated airbag warning light on your dashboard. Even after an accident with deployed airbags, the system components must be checked and usually replaced.

How long does an airbag repair take

Depending on the defect and component, a repair typically takes 1-3 business days. In urgent cases, we can often offer faster solutions.

Is a repair cheaper than buying a new one?

Definitely! A professional repair often costs only 30-50% of the new price. Especially with expensive control units from Mercedes, BMW, or Audi, you can save several hundred euros.
