Description
What is crash data?
Upon impact or airbag/pretensioner deployment, the airbag control unit (ACU) stores the event as "crash data" and may lock the system. Properly resetting this data returns the module to a functional state (where possible) without replacing the unit.
What do we do?
-
Diagnosis and reset of "crash data" on the original airbag module
-
Memory integrity checks (where applicable)
-
Bench testing (where possible) before return
IMPORTANT – BEFORE ORDERING (required):
-
Communicate year and the model the car.
-
send a clear picture of the module label or the exact part number.
-
Tell us briefly symptoms/error codes (if you have them).
Safety instructions – disassembly, shipping, reassembly
Disassembly (performed by qualified personnel only):

-
DO NOT turn on the ignition and DO NOT fuel the vehicle. none Airbag connector disconnected.

Reassembly:
-
Mount the module in its original position and orientation; tighten the screws according to the manufacturer's specifications.

Reconnect the connectors until they click; reconnect the battery at the end.
-
Clear errors with a compatible tester; perform a full scan.
-
If the manufacturer requests it, carry out any necessary adaptations/codings after assembly.
