What is a Peugeot iOn I airbag control unit?
The Peugeot iOn I airbag control unit is the central safety unit in your vehicle, precisely activating all occupant restraint systems, such as airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, in the event of an accident. It continuously monitors sensors and stores relevant crash data after an impact, thus ensuring the proper functioning of all safety-critical modules. Proper functioning is essential for passenger safety.
As an essential component of the passive safety system, the airbag control unit receives signals from various crash and acceleration sensors in the Peugeot iOn I.
Using this data, it calculates in milliseconds whether airbags and seatbelt pretensioners need to be deployed to provide optimal occupant protection. It is also connected to other vehicle systems via the CAN bus.
Why is the Peugeot iOn I airbag control unit defective?
A Peugeot iOn I airbag control unit is often reported as defective after an accident because it stores crash data that requires a reset or replacement to restore the system to full functionality. Internal electronic defects, voltage spikes, or software errors can also cause the control unit to generate error messages, necessitating urgent Peugeot iOn I airbag control unit repair.
After the airbags or belt tensioners are deployed, the control unit stores indelible crash data, making it unsuitable for reuse without a professional reset.
Internal component failures caused by aging or electrical problems can also lead to failure, often indicated by an illuminated airbag warning light.
A failure can also be caused by communication problems with other vehicle modules or by environmental influences such as moisture that affect the sensitive electronics.
