What is a SsangYong Korando Family airbag control unit?
The SsangYong Korando Family Airbag Control Unit is the central safety unit that activates all occupant restraint systems, such as airbags and seatbelt pretensioners, in the event of an accident. It continuously monitors sensors, stores relevant crash data, and ensures the proper functioning of the entire vehicle restraint system to provide maximum safety.
As an integral part of the passive safety system of the SsangYong Korando Family, especially the third generation (C200), this control unit is responsible for detecting and reacting in the event of a collision.
It processes signals from acceleration sensors and, if necessary, triggers the corresponding inflator circuits for front and side airbags as well as belt tensioners.
Why is the SsangYong Korando Family airbag control unit defective?
A SsangYong Korando Family airbag control unit is considered defective because it typically "stored crash data" after an accident, exhibits a malfunction such as "defective control unit," or the error log cannot be erased. These conditions activate the airbag warning light and require a professional SsangYong Korando Family airbag control unit repair to restore full functionality.
The most common cause of a defect is the storage of crash data after an impact, even in minor accidents. This blocks the system and prevents normal function.
Internal system errors or electronic failures can also cause the airbag control unit to be reported as defective. This may make an airbag control unit repair unavoidable.
A non-erasable error memory is a clear indication of a defect in the device and causes the airbag warning light to remain permanently active.

- Crash data saved → System is blocked after accident → Triggered by an accident event, requires a reset.
- Control unit defective → Internal malfunction → Functional errors in the airbag ECU that prevent system testing.
