What is a Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control module?
The Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen Airbag Control Unit is the central safety unit that activates all occupant restraint systems in the event of an accident. It continuously monitors sensors, stores relevant crash data, and ensures the precise deployment of all airbag modules and seatbelt pretensioners in the vehicle to maximize occupant safety.
It continuously monitors signals from acceleration and crash sensors.
Within milliseconds, it decides whether the airbag needs to be deployed and at the same time prevents false activations.
Why is the Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control module defective?
The Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control unit often fails because it stores crash data after an accident, or internal components fail due to aging or voltage spikes. A failure causes the airbag warning light to stay on and the safety system to be deactivated, making repair or replacement necessary.
Internal errors in the module, often caused by overvoltage or aging of the electronics, can impair its functionality.
This often leads to a permanently illuminated airbag warning light and the failure of the entire restraint system.
Even after a crash, the control unit must be reset or repaired based on stored accident data to regain full functionality. A professional Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control unit repair is essential here.
Common error codes for Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control unit repair
During a Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control module repair, specific error codes occur that directly indicate problems with the control module. These codes diagnose communication problems or internal defects within the module itself and are crucial for precise troubleshooting to restore the airbag system to operational status.
- B1000 → Control unit communication error → The airbag ECU cannot communicate correctly with other systems.
- B2208 → Internal error in the airbag control unit (occupant restraint controller) → The airbag control unit has an internal fault that often requires replacement.
What part numbers are available for the Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen airbag control unit repair?
For Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen Airbag Control Unit repairs, specific OEM part numbers are crucial to ensure compatibility and functional reliability. These exact numbers ensure that the replacement or repair part is a perfect fit for the vehicle model, which is essential for the proper function of the safety-critical airbag system.
The primary, 100% verified OEM part number for the Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen Airbag Control Module is 04759012AI.
This also includes compatible variants such as 04759012, 04759012AG, 04759012AD and 04759012AE from Chrysler (Mopar).
Another important number in the airbag system is 5265025, which stands for a Passenger Inflator Module and works closely with the control unit.
Other numbers, such as 05094018AL, which are used for similar airbag control units (e.g., for Chrysler Town & Country), are not 100% confirmed for the LHS and should be checked carefully. A professional **Chrysler LHS 2nd Gen Airbag Control Unit Repair** always considers the exact OEM numbers.
