Crash Sensor Side, driver side (G179)

[Bllinda]

Hello,

I need your help. I can't adapt an used G179 for this car: Vw'01 Golf IV 1.4 16v MPI.
Maybe someone has the photo of the disassembled G179?

Address 15:
Part No: 6Q0 909 605 A
Component: AIRBAG VW5 01 0004
Coding: 12358
Shop #: WSC 01317

Faults Found
01221 - Crash Sensor Side Airbag; Driver Side (G179)
37-00 - Faulty
- - - - - - - - -
01221 - Crash Sensor Side Airbag: Driver Side (G179)
62-00 - No or Incorrect Adjustment

Thanks

Does anyone know why can't I change this sensor from other car, which didn't have a crash?

Thanks

If crash sensor number is 6Q0 909 606, then you need to match crash sensor ID, not only the part number...

[Bllinda]

And then be able to adapt?

Thanks

hello

this ecu is compatible with the elements of the car?
this ecu is the same car? or has been repaired

[Bllinda]

I changed the G179 and the sensor can not adapt to the ECU.
ECU is an accident has been deleted.

Thanks

You have to connect correct sensor part#. No adaptation is required.

[Bllinda]

Will be the same as the num * 20000483 * 02310D0FGTHA: will be okay

Thanks

Did you saw my previous post? Did you know what crash sensor ID is?

[Bllinda]

I didn't understand the question, or don't know where to find the ID. There's a picture i uploaded, isn't that the ID you asked for?

[mcm44]

This should clear the case...

This encoding should be:
Coding: 12338 - Configuration is: 4 airbag, 2 seat betls, 2 side-crash sensors.
And I did not find 12358 and also haven't found the difference between them.
Thanks

I think coding is ok in your case.

I marked in red, what is your problem. Crash sensor driver side have to be replaced, because DTC 1221 is described "Faulty".

If you install incorrect crash sensor (ID other than 01) you will get DTC 1221 with description "No or Incorrect basic settings / adaptation".
