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 a Kia EV2 1st generation airbag control unit?
The airbag control unit is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) in the Kia EV2 1st generation. It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and, in an accident, decides within milliseconds which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners to deploy. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself.
The control unit is fitted in the Kia EV2 1st generation (since 2026). It monitors the system continuously and reports any detected fault via the airbag warning light. Besides the airbags, it also controls the seatbelt pretensioners. In normal operation you do not notice any of this.
Only when the light comes on or a diagnostic tool finds an entry does the control unit become an issue. Then it is worth taking a close look at the fault memory.
Why is the Kia EV2 1st generation airbag control unit defective?
The most common cause of a defective Kia EV2 1st generation 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.
After an accident the control unit saves crash data. A normal diagnostic tool cannot erase it, which is why the system stays locked. This also applies to minor accidents in which no airbag deployed.
In addition, electronic components age over the years. Solder joints can turn cold and contacts can drop out. Moisture and corrosion on connectors disturb signal transmission. Voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting, can also damage the electronics.
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.
A locked or faulty control unit cannot work reliably in an emergency. So have the fault memory read out as soon as the light no longer goes out.
Common error codes for Kia EV2 1st generation airbag control unit repair
You read error codes from the fault memory of the Kia EV2 1st generation with a diagnostic tool. The codes then show in which area the fault lies, for example internal control unit faults, communication, the supply voltage or the stored crash data.
The diagnostic tool is connected to the vehicle's diagnostic interface for this. It displays the stored codes with a short description. Note down all entries or print out the report. The following codes occur on this model series.
- B1620 → Internal fault of the airbag control unit
- B1684 → Control unit configuration deviates
- B1650 → Accident detected, frontal crash stored
- B1651 → Accident detected, driver-side impact stored
- B1652 → Accident detected, passenger-side impact stored
- U0151 → Communication with the airbag control unit lost
- B1101 → Supply voltage too high
- B1102 → Supply voltage too low
You read error codes 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 lies.
What part numbers are available for the Kia EV2 1st generation airbag control unit repair?
The part number is 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, so you should know the number of your unit before you create a repair order.
Read the part number from the label of your control unit and enter it in the repair order. Whether the unit is defective is only shown by reading out the fault memory or by the inspection at Airbag24.
The number in the repair order ensures that it is the right unit. It does not imply any statement about the condition of the unit.
Here is how to proceed: 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. Your own unit is repaired and returned to you.
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.
