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 Polestar 3 1st generation airbag control unit?
The airbag control unit is the central control unit of the restraint system (SRS) in the Polestar 3 1st generation. It evaluates the signals from the crash sensors and, in an accident, decides which airbags and seatbelt pretensioners deploy. After an accident it stores crash data and locks itself.
Sensors detect deceleration and impact, airbags and seatbelt pretensioners deliver the protection, and the control unit sits in between: it links the two and decides what deploys in an emergency. The control unit is installed in the Polestar 3 1st generation (since 2022).
In addition, the control unit continuously monitors the entire restraint system. This includes the squib circuits of the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, the sensors and the connections between them. As soon as it detects an inconsistency, it reports the fault via the airbag warning light and stores it in the fault memory.
Why is the Polestar 3 1st generation airbag control unit defective?
The most common cause is crash data stored after an accident, even if no airbag deployed. Other causes include aged electronic components, cold solder joints, moisture and corrosion on connectors, and voltage spikes, for example from a weak battery or jump-starting.
Stored crash data cannot be cleared with an ordinary diagnostic tool. The control unit then stays locked, even if the vehicle is technically in order again.
Typical signs are an airbag warning light that stays on continuously, a fault memory that cannot be cleared, or a diagnostic tool that cannot connect to the control unit.
Common error codes for Polestar 3 1st generation airbag control unit repair
The error codes show which area of the restraint system the problem lies in, for example in the communication between the control units or in the firing chain of the airbags.
These error codes are known for the Polestar 3 1st generation. They point to a loss of communication or to an interruption in the firing chain:
- U0151 → Communication with the airbag control unit lost
- B15381B → Interruption in the restraint system firing chain
Error codes are read 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 actually lies.
What part numbers are available for the Polestar 3 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 it is worth checking the label.
Read the part number from the label of your control unit and enter it in the repair order. This allows the version to be identified unambiguously. Whether the unit is defective is only shown by reading out the fault memory or by the inspection.
Here is how to get to the repair: First have the fault memory read out. Then disconnect the battery and remove the control unit. Next, create a repair order online and send in the unit. Processing at Airbag24, with inspection, repair and testing, usually takes 3–4 working days.
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.
