What is a Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit?

The Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS). It works together with the crash sensors and the airbags and, in an accident, decides within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners deploy.

The sensors continuously send readings to the control unit. The control unit evaluates them and, when necessary, sends the firing command to the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners. At the same time it monitors the entire system and indicates faults via the airbag warning light.

After an accident, the control unit stores crash data and locks itself. In the 1992 to 1995 model series it is part of the restraint system of the Ford Taurus 2 and is essential for its function.

Why is the Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit defective?

The most common cause of a defective Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit 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.

Stored crash data cannot be cleared with an ordinary diagnostic tool. The control unit therefore stays in a fault state, even if the vehicle looks fully intact again after the accident.

Moisture and corrosion on the connectors also occur, as do cold solder joints caused by material fatigue. Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or from jump-starting, put additional stress on the electronics. In many cases several of these factors act together.

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. If the warning light is on, the restraint system may not work as intended in an emergency. Have the cause checked for this reason.

Common error codes for Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit repair

The error codes for the Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit point to internal control unit faults, memory faults, missing communication, stored crash data or interrupted firing circuits of the front airbags.

This list shows known codes. It is not complete, but it shows which types of fault can occur in this control unit.

  • B1342 → Internal fault in the airbag control unit
  • U2017 → Memory fault in the restraint system control unit
  • B1231 → Crash data stored, event memory full
  • U0151 → Communication with the restraint system control unit interrupted
  • B0001 → Driver front airbag firing circuit, first stage interrupted
  • B0002 → Driver front airbag firing circuit, second stage interrupted
  • B0010 → Passenger front airbag firing circuit, first stage interrupted
  • B0011 → Passenger front airbag firing circuit, second stage interrupted

Error codes are read from the fault memory with a diagnostic tool. A code on its own 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.

What part numbers are available for the Ford Taurus 2 airbag control unit repair?

The part number is printed on the label of the Ford Taurus 2 airbag 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 belongs in every repair order.

There is no verified list of part numbers for this vehicle. Please enter the number from your own label.

To do so, remove the control unit and read the number from the label. You then state it in the repair order so that Airbag24 can clearly identify your unit. Whether the control unit is actually defective is only shown by reading out the fault memory or by the inspection at Airbag24.

As for the procedure: have the fault memory read out and disconnect the battery. After removal, you create a repair order online and send in the control unit. Processing at Airbag24 usually takes 3–4 working days, from inspection through repair to testing.

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.
