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 a Ferrari 296 Speciale F171 airbag control unit?
How can you tell that the airbag control unit is involved? Usually by the airbag warning light or an entry in the fault memory: the control unit is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) in the Ferrari 296 Speciale F171.
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 entire system continuously and reports faults via the airbag warning light in the instrument cluster.
The control unit is installed in the Ferrari 296 Speciale F171 (since 2025). After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself. In this state it can no longer perform its task in the restraint system, and the warning light stays on.
Why is the Ferrari 296 Speciale F171 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, corrosion on connectors and voltage spikes.
Crash data cannot be erased with an ordinary diagnostic tool. That is why the system stays locked even when the damage to the vehicle was repaired long ago.
Without an accident, faults often develop gradually. Electronic components age, solder joints turn cold and cracked, and moisture can collect on the connectors and lead to corrosion. Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or a jump start, can also damage the control unit.
Typical signs are an airbag warning light that stays on permanently, a fault memory that cannot be cleared, and a diagnostic tool that cannot connect to the control unit.
Common error codes for Ferrari 296 Speciale F171 airbag control unit repair
The error codes show which area of the restraint system a fault is in, for example the power supply or the control unit itself. You can read out which codes occur on your vehicle with a diagnostic tool.
The following codes are the most common on this vehicle:
- 01 → Internal fault in the control unit
- 06 → Battery voltage too low
A code alone does not prove that the control unit is defective. Connectors, wiring or an airbag module can also be the cause. Only testing shows where the fault actually lies.
What part numbers are available for the Ferrari 296 Speciale F171 airbag control unit repair?
The part number is printed on the label of the control unit and determines the exact version. Within a model series there are different numbers depending on equipment and year of manufacture, which is why it matters for every repair.
We currently have no list of known part numbers for the Ferrari 296 Speciale F171. Please read the number directly from the label of your removed unit and enter it in the repair order. That way we can be sure to identify and assign exactly your unit.
The route to repair is short: first have the fault memory read out, disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Then create a repair order online and send the unit in. Processing at Airbag24 usually takes 3–4 working days and covers testing, repair and checking. 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.
