ABS ESP P(AUTO OFF) GEAR BOX FAULTY CITROEN PICASSO C4 1.6 2009

ONE WHEEL TAKE ABOUT HOUR TO CLEAN IT. ENJOY

[@creativemario101]

pay for diagnostic ? No. First think - wheels and sensors should be clean to eliminate this first problem, and hopefully last problem.

[@paulkavanagh710]

Thank you for the video , my mechanic could not find the issue after changing the sensor. i had all the listed faults come up on my dash after the sensor change. This fault would only happen every so often. i took the time to clean the magnetic strip on the bearing with a toothbrush and wd40 , unfortunitaly this did not clear the issue. On the bed of the sensor a small section of raised rust increased the clearence of the sensor from the magnetic strip on the bearing. After a scrapedown and cleaning i remounted the sensor and all faults are now gone. in total two hours all in , a happy wife untill she gets her toothbrush back.

[@geomcons5752]

mario, thanks for the video, i had the same problem and was sure the gearbox had some serious problems, took it to the citroen dealer, 40 euros for a diagnostic check and 45 euros to clean the sensor so i paid and am now happy. a small price when i thought that i would probably have to scrap the car. keep up the good work my friend!

Edited. 6th April 2021 Hi Everyone, After trying everything that was obvious from watching endless videos about wheel sensors, Blue wires, corroded connect etc it turned out to be my front Passenger side Wheel Bearing because the Magnetic strip was faulty. I was amazed that this was giving me all the issues ie. Christmas tree lights Abs, Ecs, Auto Gearbox and more. I hope this helps and it was a pretty inexpensive part to fix compared to the warning alternatives 😬 Alan.

[@brianwalker1159]

[@aarong3034]

I have a 2009 Citroen C4 Picasso HDI. I wish I found this a year ago... I had a few mechanics not find it. The closest was to replace the gear box robot. After getting one the errors just went away. Maybe that got an accidental clean or driving it in the rain helped.

[@creativemario101]

Also good idea to use a jet wash behind the wheel from time to time

[@sonysony9585]

i add more story of correct fault - the first try to remember what you was doing with car did you replaiced wheels if yes mean you touched abs sensor so come back and check the sensor, my story was i replaced sreeting inner rod both sides and not correct tight nuts that is why EPS was coming and even computer reader could not read, later after three days computer start reading it is steering wheel fault, so i unscrew nuts and return how it was, so EPS gone, finish no more faults. another fault - turbo pressure electrovalve control flow too low or too high. mean time to change air filter all dirty blocked was, i replaced and fault gone, it wont help you if you gonna buy first electrovalve sensor wont work. and another faul - preheating relay plug fault - i checked tested relay all good, so removed all glow plugs four of them, one gow plug gone died, and rest 0.6 oms, so going down - SO 55£ SPEND BOSCH BOUGHT GLOW PLUGS AND REPLACED - fault preheating relay gone. so some times showing one fault but greating before some of one item, so need a bit think. takes time, but you getting experience.

[@standbanger2]

I have this issue, but it being a citroen i do know a warning sign on the dash maybe something completely different, the car may throw a code, but something else maybe causing the issue, i come across this vid looking for answers because my car kept telling me it was a intermittent clutch sensor problem change it & it never solved it, i never give the abs sensors a thought so I'm going to try the jet wash trick (basically jet washing the sensor & rings instead of removing them & cleaning manually) i will come back an let you know the results!

[@creativemario101]

Ok let me know. I wonder myself.

[@standbanger2]

Yep it sorted it, hit around the sensors & rings x4 wheels with some "GUNK" an give them a good jetting, seems to of worked anyway, been driving it for a few days now an all is good so far!

Thank you Mario 🤗

[@rex9178]

I’ve drive the 2008 Picasso and I got all the warnings as you do. But when I try to release the handbrake with the pedal I can’t I have to use the lever on the dash as I have a electronic handbrake. Also when the car is turned off it’s supposed to come on automatic but it’s not and have to remember to put the leaver handbrake on. Garage said it did a diagnostic check and results were it was a sensor problem.

[@creativemario101]

Instead pay for diagnostic first think wheels and sensors should be clean first anyway to eliminate first and hopefully last problem.

is the magnetic strip from metal or what? with tooth brush its not coming off, can I use some scraper or flat screw driver?

Hello, my 2009 Citroen grand Picasso. I get a message "Gearbox faulty" When i move the gear lever, nothing happened, it does not go to "'D" , it stays on "N" and sometimes the car does not start, and other times it starts. The OBD II says "Manufacturer Controlled Transmission. Code P 1834" what do you think the problem is?

But after fer meter was like cristmas the car was thinking which gear to choose 1-2-1 total bad situation. I didn't have time yesterday. And today i open again. Clean again with brush the right wheel, clean carefully the sensor bed because there was a lot rust disconect the sensor spray between the plugs. 30 min job. Put back everything , wasn't able to clean the faults. I use a cheap reader and torque pro. But once i more the car everything dissappear from the dash. I come today to work, and was our first day since i drive on motorway without any lights for brake abs asr esp and gearbox. I think is fix now.
