BMW E92 E93 Seat Belt Handover Control Module 916723701 - Used Original Parts

Diagnosis and Common Symptoms

From the M.S. Motor workshop, we see these modules fail in distinct ways. The primary function of this control unit is to manage the logic for the "seat belt butler" arm. When it malfunctions, the physical mechanism may be perfectly fine, but the brain is faulty. You will not typically see a specific dashboard warning light, but fault codes will be stored in the vehicle's memory, accessible with a proper diagnostic scanner.

Common symptoms of a failing handover module include:

• The seat belt handover arm fails to extend or retract entirely.
• The arm extends briefly and then immediately retracts before the belt can be grabbed.
• The arm operates erratically or intermittently.
• The arm stays permanently extended and will not retract.

Associated Fault Codes:

• A6E4: Gurtbringer Fahrer (Seat belt handover, driver)
• A6E5: Gurtbringer Beifahrer (Seat belt handover, passenger)
• A6E6 / A6E7: Other related handover system faults.
