Description
Kinetic ESP sensor BOSCH for Citroën C4 Picasso, C5 X7 and Peugeot 308, 3008, 5008 and others.
This Bosch ESP sensor is designed to work with the electronic stability program of various Stellantis models. The sensor monitors vehicle motion and rotation information and supplies the ABS/ESP control unit with real-time data used for traction control, stability interventions and improved braking safety. Ideal for workshops and experienced DIY mechanics who search by OE numbers or part codes, this unit is commonly referenced by multiple manufacturer numbers and cross-references.
Typical Symptoms And Benefits:
- ESP/ABS warning lamp illuminated on the instrument cluster.
- Reduced or lost stability and traction control functionality.
- Unusual braking interventions or inconsistent ABS activity.
- Direct replacement restores correct sensor input to the stability control system when the rest of the system is functioning correctly.

How The Part Is Replaced
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work.
- Locate the sensor (mounted on the body or chassis near the ABS/ESP control area or under the dashboard/center console depending on model).
- Unplug the electrical connector and remove the securing screws/bolts—keep track of orientation and any spacers or brackets.
- Fit the new sensor, secure fasteners to the original position (do not overtighten) and reconnect the wiring harness.
- After installation clear fault codes with a diagnostic tool and perform the required ESP/yaw sensor initialization or calibration procedure.
- Perform a short road test to confirm normal system operation and that no warning lights return.
Installation Recommendations
- Always Disconnect The Battery Before Work To Avoid Electrical Damage.
- Observe Manufacturer Fastening Points And Tightening Procedures—Do Not Overtighten Fixings.
- Ensure Electrical Connectors Are Clean And Free Of Corrosion; Use Dielectric Grease If Recommended.
- Perform Sensor Initialization/Calibration With A Suitable Diagnostic Tool After Replacement; Without Calibration The ESP System May Report Faults.
- If You Lack The Required Diagnostic Equipment, Have The Calibration Performed By A Professional Workshop.
Reason Why The Part Most Commonly Fails
- Water Ingress Or Moisture Causing Internal Damage Or Connector Corrosion.
- Mechanical Damage From Impacts Or Accidents That Affect Sensor Alignment Or Housing.
- Electrical Faults Such As Short Circuits Or Wiring Harness Damage.
- Age-Related Wear And Drift Of Internal Electronics Leading To Incorrect Readings.
Search Tip: This sensor is frequently searched for by its part numbers (9664661580, 9811627180, 0265005765, 454949). Always verify the part number against the vehicle’s fitted part list before ordering.
