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 light for the airbag). Today the message came from SWE, the car is running again, the red light is off and the HU was also passed. Once again many thanks for the help in need. Keep it up and maybe word will also spread in SWE that Airbag 24 does great work. Regards Gerd

What is a Mercedes-Benz G-Class W460 airbag control unit?
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class W460 airbag control unit is the central safety unit that activates all occupant restraint systems in the event of an accident. It monitors sensors, stores crash data, and ensures the proper functioning of all airbag modules in the vehicle. This module is crucial for occupant safety in your classic car.
This safety-relevant electronic module is responsible for controlling and monitoring the vehicle's airbag system. It processes impulses from several crash sensors.
The main task is to determine the intensity and direction of an impact and to selectively trigger the corresponding airbags.
Why is the Mercedes-Benz G-Class W460 airbag control unit defective?
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class W460 airbag control unit often fails because age-related wear, excessive voltage, or stored crash data after an accident can impair its function. A failure is usually indicated by an illuminated airbag warning light in the dashboard, which requires urgent diagnosis and repair.
A common cause of failure is stored crash data that hasn't been erased after an accident. This data locks the control unit and requires a special repair or reset.
Internal memory errors or problems with the power supply can also lead to a defect and make a professional Mercedes-Benz G-Class W460 airbag control unit repair necessary.
Communication errors or firmware problems in the control unit are other possible causes of its malfunction.

- B1200 → Memory error - Crash data cannot be deleted → Control unit stores accident information permanently.
