B0095 is the right-hand partner of B0090: an acceleration satellite in the right front crumple zone that lets the airbag module judge early how severe a frontal hit is. Honda's Fit and HR-V of model years 2016–2017 use the code this way, B0095-87 meaning the right front impact sensor sends nothing; in request AER17060A Honda asked dealers to report such cars before any repair. On the Ram 1500, FCA stores B0095-49 for an internal electronic failure of the right frontal acceleration sensor. STAR case S2408000050 traces repeat faults to a replacement sensor whose part number does not suit the restraint controller, and TSB 08-150-26 reprograms the controller on 2025 trucks. Mitsubishi once recalled Lancers because salty water could corrode the front impact sensors. With B0095 set, the airbag lamp is lit.

Likely causes

Replacement sensor part number not matching the restraint controller (FCA S2408000050)
Water or road salt in the sensor housing or plug at the right front
Restraint controller software needing a reflash (FCA TSB 08-150-26)
Internal failure of the right front acceleration sensor

Symptoms

  • Airbag warning lamp on, often after front-end repair
  • Frontal impacts on the right are judged later or less precisely
  • Safety note: airbag system; disconnect the battery and keep the wait time before touching the sensor, specialist workshop only
