Airbag Control Module J234The purpose of J234 is to measure and evaluatethe vehicle’s acceleration and deceleration todetermine if a collision has occurred. Externalsensors, as well as those in the control moduleare used. J234 can only detect an accident fromthe information provided by the sensors.The main tasks of the airbag electronics are:Once all of the sensor information has beenevaluated, J234 decides when and which safetycomponents will be activated. Dependingon the severity and nature of the impact, theappropriate restraint systems (belt tensioner orbelt tensioner and airbag) are activated.– Defined deployment of the belt tensioners,airbags, and battery isolatorOther vehicle systems are also notified of thecollision event.Through continued development, J234 no longerneeds a second crash sensor (“safety switch”) forhead-on impact detection.Airbag ControlModule J234– Evaluation of all input information– Continuous monitoring of the overall airbagsystem– Collision detection (front, side, rear)– Defined activation of front airbag adaptivity– Defined activation of the adaptive belt forcelimiter– Independent power supply through acapacitor for a defined period of time(approximately 150 ms)– Fault indication by the airbag warning lamp– Storage of fault and crash information– Notification of a collision event to othersystem components via the Powertrain CAN– Activation and deactivation of the seatbeltreminder function456 079Rollover Protection SystemTwo additional sensors for rollover recognitionhave been integrated into J234. For higherrollover recognition sensitivity, information isalso collected from ABS Control Module J104,Active Steering Control Module J792, andSteering Angle Sensor G85.12J234 does not require additional informationfrom these sensors. It is capable ofindependently identifying a rollover situation.When a rollover is detected, the seatbelttensioners and Audi Sideguard airbags areactivated.
Data ExchangeSide AirbagsAirbag Control Module J234 continuouslyexchanges information with other vehiclesystems on the Powertrain CAN, sending thefollowing information:Side airbags are used for all outside seatingpositions. They are equipped with solid fuelgenerators.– Airbag Indicator Lamp K75 ON/OFFAudi Sideguard– Status of seatbelt buckles– Diagnostic data– Crash signal/crash severity– Crash information for the actuator test– Seat position– Front passenger front airbag statusJ234 also evaluates the following information:– Dimming for the passenger OFF warning lamp– Vehicle stationary or moving– Collision prediction*Side curtain airbags cover almost the entireside window area. The length of the airbagvaries according to A8 body shape (long or shortwheelbase). These airbags are inflated by hybridgas generators integrated in the D pillars of thevehicle.Battery InterrupterDuring a collision, Battery Interrupt IgniterN253 is the pyrotechnic battery interruptingcomponent.– Speed relative to objects*BatteryInterrupterN253*With Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)and Audi side assist only456 026Seat Position SensingBelt TensionersTo adapt the function of the belt force limiterand front airbags to the exact requirements ofthe moment, J234 must know if the seats arein forward or rearward positions. Seat PositionSensors G553 and G554 provide this informationfor J234.Rack-type belt tensioners are used on the frontseats. Band driven belt tensioners are usedon the rear outer seats. These tensioners areintegrated into the inertia-reel seatbelts.13
SeatbeltsThe following functions are integrated into thefront inertia-reel seatbelts:Belt tensionercontrol module– Reversible belt tensioner with control module– Pyrotechnic belt tensioner– Adaptive belt force limiterElectricmotorReversible belt tensioners:– Left Front Seat Belt Tensioner ControlModule J854Active beltforce limiter– Right Front Seat Belt Tensioner ControlModule J855Control modules J854 and J855 communicate viathe Extended CAN bus and Data Bus On BoardDiagnostic Interface J533. The control modulesactivate electric motors which vary the tensionapplied to the belts.Three different force levels are available:1. Low force belt slack reductionPyrotechnicbelt tensioner456 0772. Medium force partial tensioningGeardrive3. High force full tensioningIf Airbag Control Module J234 detects a minorhead-on collision where the belt tensioners arenot needed, a corresponding signal is sent tocontrol modules J854 and J855 to initiate fullelectrical motor tensioning of the seatbelts.DrivingplateWhen the electric motors operate, a driving plateis driven by toothed gearing. Two hooks extendconnecting the driving plate to the seatbeltretractor shaft. The seatbelt is retracted. Whenthe motors stop or reverse slightly, the hooksretract, releasing the seatbelt retractor shaft.Hook456 014DrivingplateHook456 01314
Adaptive Belt Force LimiterThe front inertia-reel seatbelts have dual-stagebelt force limiters. In a head-on collision wherethe impact force exceeds a predetermineddeployment threshold, the pyrotechnic belttensioners are ignited first.The inertia-reel seatbelt blocking mechanismthen blocks the seatbelt retractor shaft,preventing the seatbelt from unwinding.Otherwise, due to the forward motion of theoccupants, the seatbelts would attempt torewind.To reduce the load exerted on the occupantsby the seatbelt, the seatbelt retractor shaft anda belt winder allow the seatbelt to unwind in acontrolled way.The airbag control module activates the beltforce limiter igniter according to the force ofimpact and the longitudinal position of the seat.The force counteracting the seatbelt isdistributed as follows:1. From the seatbelt reel to the blockingmechanism via the seatbelt retractor shaft.The seatbelt retractor shaft twists like atorsion bar.2. From the seatbelt reel to the blockingmechanism via the toothed segments, thesupport ring, and metal bands. The metalbands are connected to the support ring andblocking mechanism.

Front AirbagsA hybrid gas generator is used for the frontpassenger side airbag. The adaptivity function issimilar in both airbag modules.The 2011 Audi A8 has adaptive driver and frontpassenger airbags. An airbag module with asingle-stage solid fuel generator is located onthe driver’s side.Driver Airbag OperationDepending on the force of impact and thedriver’s seating position, J234 activates thedriver airbag discharge valve igniter, cutting theband and opening the additional discharge port.The airbag is “adapted” to the event seatingsituation of the occupants.In the event of a collision severe enough todeploy the airbags, Airbag Control Module J234activates Driver Airbag Igniter N95. The ignitioncharge then ignites the propellant charge. Whenthe gas pressure produced by combustion ofthe propellant charge exceeds a predeterminedlevel, a foil opens the discharge ports. Thisallows gas to flow through the metal filterand into the airbag. The airbag unfolds and isinflated.To provide adaptivity, an additional igniter,Driver Airbag Release Valve Igniter N490, and adischarge port are located on the back of the gasgenerator. This discharge port is kept closed inthe airbag by a band.The gas generator of the driver’s airbag ismounted on the steering wheel in a rubber ring,which minimizes idValve 7 N94MetalfilterMetalfilter456 062Driver AirbagIgniter N95DischargeportBandRetaininglugRetaininglugDriver AirbagRelease ValveIgniter N490456 005!456 010NoteThe method for attaching J234 to the steering wheel has changed from previous Audi A8 models.

Passenger AirbagThe 2011 Audi A8 for the North American marketwill come equipped with a two-stage adaptivefront passenger airbag. It uses a two-stagehybrid gas generator.Based on accident parameters, Airbag ControlModule J234 determines the time interval atwhich Front Passenger Airbag Igniter 2 N132 isactivated after Front Passenger Airbag Igniter 1N131.Front passenger two-stage hybrid gas generatorPropellantcharge 1Rupturedisc 1Rupturedisc 3Propellantcharge 2Rupturedisc 2Front PassengerAirbag Igniter 1N131Front PassengerAirbag Igniter 2N132Ignitioncharge 1!18456 009NoteWhen performing work on the airbag system, it is very important to pay close attention to the Cautions andWarnings given in current service repair literature.
Knee AirbagsDriver Knee Airbag Igniter N295Front Passenger Knee Airbag Igniter N296Ignited knee airbags protect occupants earlier inthe vehicle deceleration process. On the driver’sside, the knee airbag is integrated into thefootwell trim below the instrument panel. On thefront passenger side, the knee airbag is locatedbehind the glove box lid. Knee airbags areactivated in combination with the front airbags.Hybrid gas generators are used.View insideinstrumentpanelAirbagGasgenerator456 024LockingdeviceReleaseleverRetaininghookActive headrestraint solenoidMetalcoreEndposition456 007InitialpositionActive Head RestraintsDriver Active Head Restraint Solenoid N419and Front Passenger Active Head RestraintSolenoid N420If Airbag Control Module J234 detects a rearimpact where the force exceeds a predetermineddeployment threshold, the active head restraintson the front seats are activated in addition to thebelt tensioners.When J234 activates active head restraintsolenoids N419 and N420, the metal core isdrawn into the magnetic coil.
