Audi Restraints Wiring: UPDATE
I-CAR · September 5, 2025 · Audi
Summary
This article outlines Audi's specific requirements for repairing supplemental restraint system (SRS) wiring. Audi allows a maximum of two repairs per harness, which must be located within 30 cm of the connector housing and follow strict wire length and twisting specifications.
What to do on the job
When repairing Audi SRS wiring, limit repairs to two areas, keep them within 30 cm of the connector, and strictly observe equal wire lengths and a twisting lay length of 20 mm ±5.
How to use it
Use this document to support and document SRS wiring repairs on Audi vehicles during estimating or supplementing. Ensure the repair parameters (maximum 2 repairs, within 30 cm of the connector, and specific twist lay length) are strictly adhered to and documented to prove OEM compliance. If the damage falls outside these parameters, use this to justify complete harness replacement.
