What is a SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit?
The SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit is the heart of your vehicle's passive safety system, precisely deploying the airbags and seatbelt pretensioners in the event of a collision. It continuously monitors key sensors, stores relevant crash data, and is essential for ensuring optimal occupant safety in the SsangYong Rexton Y300.
It is a central component of the vehicle safety system and ensures the rapid activation of the airbags and seat belt pretensioners.
This control unit is part of the passive occupant protection system to minimize injuries in the event of a collision.
The device is specially designed for the first generation of the SsangYong Rexton Y300 (approx. 2002–2006) and is compatible with diesel engines as well as common equipment such as ABS, ESP and air conditioning.
Why is the SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit defective?
A SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit can fail due to internal hardware or software errors, such as memory problems or crash data corruption after an accident. Communication problems in the vehicle's network or voltage fluctuations can also cause failures that require control unit repair.
Internal errors in the control unit, as indicated by codes such as B0091 or B1001, are common causes of a defect.
Crash data stored after an impact can cause a "hard code" that blocks normal OBD-II scanners and requires a specialized crash data reset service.
Communication or wiring problems, often caused by low battery voltage, can also lead to malfunctions and corresponding error codes.
Common error codes for SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit repair
During SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit repairs, specific error codes are often detected that indicate internal problems with the unit. These codes range from communication errors to internal memory and hardware defects to voltage or diagnostic errors that directly affect the control unit.
- B1000 → Control unit communication error → Error in the data transmission or connection to the airbag control unit.
- B0091 → Control unit internal error → There is an internal malfunction or a software problem in the airbag control unit.
- B1001 → Internal memory/EEPROM error → There is a defect in the non-volatile memory (EEPROM) of the control unit.
- B1002 → Airbag control unit hardware error → Damage to internal components of the airbag control unit was detected.
- B1003 → Control unit MEM error/Flash error → An error occurred while reading or writing the flash memory in the control unit.
- B1010 → Internal diagnostic error in the control unit → The self-diagnosis function of the airbag control unit has detected an internal error.
- B1015 → Control unit voltage/current error → There is an insufficient or faulty power supply to the airbag control unit.
What part numbers are available for the SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit repair?
There are currently no directly verified OEM part numbers available from publicly accessible sources for the SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit, making identification difficult. Precise identification requires specialized databases such as TecDoc or direct contact with authorized SsangYong dealers for the required repair.
Precisely determining exact OEM part numbers for the SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit requires access to official SsangYong spare parts catalogs or TecDoc databases.
Without these specific expert sources, no 100% verified part number can be given with certainty, as general search results do not provide confirmed data.
For SsangYong Rexton Y300 airbag control unit repairs, we recommend using the vehicle identification number (VIN) from SsangYong dealers or professional spare parts databases.
