HOW TO: Peugeot 407 ABS SENSOR

[@uchechukwunyeche5566]

Good morning, am a Peugeot 407 user . I watched Ur video and I liked the simplicity and straight to point . Thanks

[@PiggyPower]

Thankyou! Much appreciated 😃👍🐷💪

[@virkoza]

you are awesome. I need to look into why it shows both ABS and ESP errors on my 2007 407sw, after the brake hose got damaged and needed to get replaced (I bet it's the first time you hear about something like this). After replacing this hose, I get these errors and need to do the diagnostics, but could be oil from the brake hose (it was all over the place) and just needs some cleaning, or perhaps they damaged the sensor cable during brake hose replacement.

[@PiggyPower]

ABS/ESP are directly linked. I'd bet the plug or cable has been damaged when making the repair. Doesn't sound like a coincidence.

[@user-cq1we8nu7w]

great and clear video , just one question after you change the sonsor did the car need to be scan that ABS fault go or no

[@PiggyPower]

The fault light will usually go away once you drive a few metres if you have replaced the right sensor... However the fault will stay stored until it's cleared 👍

[@JoeBob79569]

Great timing with the video. Just about to do mine.. Thanks.

[@PiggyPower]

I knew you were... I sensed it. #piggysenses

Hi mate nice vid btw and just subbed. I oot a 06 407 2.0hdi. Abs light comes up randomly while driving or doing anything really. Can stay off for ages then just pop up until I restart the car. Could this still be a bad sensor. How did yours fail of you can remember mate ☺️

[@PiggyPower]

Hi there. This could be a sensor or a ring which is split or dirty. Worth getting it plugged in, then it will tell you which corner and type of fault usually. Even with the light off, fault codes will be stored.

[@zadokjoker5847]

Thanks for the video sir. I have been changing my sensor for months now and the Abs always goes off but won’t stay a week before coming back on. The last one I even changed was cut off and I don’t know how it happened. So am still using my car with the abs light on and it’s very frustrating

[@PiggyPower]

So it's the same one you keep changing? Need some more information to assist. Cut off? How? Are you reading the code each time?

[@Mirhashmatullah]

You are explaining really well. I have a peugeot 307 esp light is coming on, any ideas?

[@PiggyPower]

Have a diagnostic done 👍 the light is to tell you there is a fault code logged...that will then tell you where to look to fix the problem 👍 Thanks for watching 👌🐷💪

[@Krillekris]

This is golden, just what I need today :-)

[@PiggyPower]

Aweomse!

[@martinwilson4706]

Drivers side abs senson replaced but not getting a good reading like passenger side any info

[@PiggyPower]

Bad sensor, bad connection, damaged wiring, poor fitment, bad abs ring

[@dangerousbryan3983]

Hi what does the abs sensor plug into as I have a kink in that cable and need to replace it as its broken a wire the sensor itself is OK??

[@PiggyPower]

The ABS loom

[@irishdog2031]

Piggy Power i have traction control light on my peugeot 206 convertible also says abs fault on little digital screen what do think it can be plugged in a diagnostic in it came up as p0501 vehicle speed sensor would it be back or front ones ?

[@PiggyPower]

If you get a decent diagnostic system plugged in, it will tell you which sensor it is 👍 Traction control relies on a functioning ABS system 👌 🐷💪 Hope it goes well

[@irishdog2031]

Piggy Power Piggy Power which obd reader would suggest any cheap peugout one or something better ?

[@PiggyPower]

A cheap OBD reader won't do it. You will need Peugeot Planet, A Bosch diagnostic system or something like Delphi 150e / snap on type hand held proper diagnostic device. You may have to bite the bullet and pay for a diagnostic...then fix the sensor yourself once you have the results. 👍

[@MatejKopecny]

Nice video. I couldn't get the old sensor off from its hole yet. Already destroyed the plastic where the screw hole is....my plan is to clean the sensor from the dust and clean the wheel but will see maybe I'll need to buy new sensor. Sensor sit tight (since 2005 perhabs) : )

[@PiggyPower]

If it's dead it's dead. If it's intermittently faulty, sometimes it's dirt. The way to get them out when like yours is, cut the top flat and then drill and split

[@Bossix84]

There are two sensors right ? One for each front wheel? If yes, how do I know which one is broken ?thanks

[@PiggyPower]

Diagnostic equipment. There is one per wheel... So 4 in total.

[@tor-arneeriksson7725]

I have errorcode c1320 on my 407 2006 modell. Already fixed c1330, changing both sensor and wheel bearing. But when that was done, the c1320 came up. So are now changing the sensor on the left side also.

[@PiggyPower]

Keep at it 👌🐷

[@tor-arneeriksson7725]

@@PiggyPower . One problem, they have sendt me sensor for the rear. My problem is at the front. The partnumber is different and so is the price, what is different from front and rear?

[@PiggyPower]

@@tor-arneeriksson7725 well, they are different for a reason! One fits the rear hub and one the front!

[@tor-arneeriksson7725]

@@PiggyPower Ok, because I now have no faults on my diagnose, but still in the dashboard. Starting to get a little bit frustrated. Because someone who was suppose to help me fitted the rear sensor at the front. Is this the reason why I still have errorr in my dashboard.

[@PiggyPower]

I have no idea, need to plug it in and find the code. Can't fit a rear sensor on the front I believe. Hence why you buy front or rear sensor s

[@normanwest7396]

Would my red stop light come on when the abs sensor is faulty?

[@PiggyPower]

Maybe there is another reason for the stop light to come on?

[@adedoyinnosiru3277]

Where is speedometer cable located and how can it be changed when faulty?

[@PiggyPower]

There isn't one. The 407 uses the ABS system.

[@adedoyinnosiru3277]

@@PiggyPower Do you mean that the ABS system is serving as the speedometer cable?

[@adedoyinnosiru3277]

@@PiggyPower My worry is that the speedometer stop working after I changed the Sedan Engine, even, the odo meter stopped counting since then. How do I rectify the fault?

[@PiggyPower]

Vehicles havnt used cables for years! Since ABS came along...it got rid of them! So check the ABS system 👍

[@PiggyPower]

And the odometer runs off the Speedo/ABS system.

[@qashi21]

How do you change the rotating top bolt holding the hub ? I really need information on that please

[@PiggyPower]

You don't need to touch this bolt to remove the ABS sensor 👌

[@bjornnylander8754]

Hi there...what´s the correct resistance for a healthy ABS sensor on a peugeot 407?

[@PiggyPower]

Can have correct resistance and still be a dead sensor. If its working, the ABS system will show it on live data. If it's not. Check wiring. Then replace sensor.

[@bjornnylander8754]

@@PiggyPower Hi and thank you for a quick answer. Just to be sure, i get 686 and 460 Ohm on the rear, and 686 and 403 Ohm at front. Are these ok figures? I can see nothing at the live data at all and the ABS and ESP light turns on just after a few seconds of idling.

[@PiggyPower]

@@bjornnylander8754 so with live data, when you spin a wheel, it doesn't show as spinning? Resistance will change as the wheel spins... So this is why I don't trust such a test. What error codes does the ABS/ESP system give out?

[@bjornnylander8754]

@@PiggyPower "speed sensor fault" but the speed sensor is ok as the speedometer works just fine. I havent been testing with wheels spinning yet as i get this error right after i start the car.

[@PiggyPower]

@@bjornnylander8754 thats just a generic error code. Each wheel has a speed sensor. That's how abs works/senses what's happening. You need a better diagnostics to pin point which corner (it will tell you) or test live data

[@grantropiha5746]

Hi, do younhave a video for gyrometer repair?

[@PiggyPower]

Gyrometer??

[@jaysiddle2943]

Hi :). Thanks for the videos, I find them easy to follow which is great as I’m new to pugs lol 😂 I’ve just done my rear bearings which your video was really helpful thanks Could you do one on the bottom ball joint? Thanks

[@PiggyPower]

If I had a 407 I would for you my friend...but I don't ... There are some ball joint basics on the channel...however the 407 has a little odd front lower joint which is more of a bearing/cup. There are some guides online, it's not a novice job really. But we all start somewhere 👍🐷💪

[@PiggyPower]

If you listen... I say 👍

Do a front wheel bearing removal and fitting 407 , thanks .

A video for that, no sorry I don't think so. Pretty intensive job. Don't start it unless you've got a good weekend/massive press and a good tool/skill set

[@brocky78]

True that massive job didnt attempt even guy local 1 man under the Radar garage had a right job with wheel bearing seized in, took 2 hrs with lift all the gear , i bought the bearing so only charged €70 labour!

You say a 5mm Allen key but I saw another vid where that chap said a T30 torx.

[@PiggyPower]

Well, I couldn't have used a t30 in the bolt which was a 5mm allenkey/hex. . . So either he rounded his off and resorted to a t30 torx, or simply his was a t30 torx. 👌

[@kevinweastwood]

Never again, the screw was the easy bit.

[@PiggyPower]

Oh mate...what was your struggle?

[@kevinweastwood]

@@PiggyPower screw came out easy, the rest welded in, tried everything, in the end I drilled it out, front off side, do you know if all the sensors are same front and rear apart from cable length? I had a new rear I put in, all good until I floored it down the road then lights back on, I've ordered a ring, do you have a video on how to replace this? Front.

[@PiggyPower]

I'm unsure if front and rear are the same, without checking part numbers. Odd that you had to drill it out, those later type don't usually have the issue of getting stuck in like the early types. Was the abs ring cracked? Is there too much distance between sensor and ring? What is the code?

[@kevinweastwood]

@@PiggyPower don't have a code, a local garage put on diagnostic, I fitted with a rear and light went off until I floored it down the road, I may have damaged the ring with drill but I can't see any ring through the hole, I've now ordered a new ring and front abs sensor, no idea how to fit the ring? I may have to take to a garage, just wondering if you have a video for ring change?

[@PiggyPower]

Need to get diagnostics on it and do some live tests. If the ring isn't damaged or split, be a bit odd if it was the ring. You would need to take shaft out of the hub. Then break it off. Clean the joint perfectly. Then warm the new ring up and press or tap it evenly into place.
