Description
Kinematic ESP Sensor Bosch for Citroën C4, C8 and Peugeot 307, 807
High-quality Bosch ESP kinematic sensor (yaw rate sensor) designed for Citroën and Peugeot models. This genuine-design sensor with reference numbers 0265005606 and 9649776180 monitors vehicle rotation and provides real-time data to the ESP/ABS control unit to ensure stable handling and safe electronic stability intervention. Ideal for professional workshops and DIY mechanics who need a direct replacement part for Stellantis vehicles, the sensor improves system responsiveness and restores correct stability control operation when the original unit is faulty.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Bosch
- Model: Citroën C4; Citroën C8; Peugeot 307; Peugeot 807
- Product Codes: 0265005606; 9649776180
- Other Numbers: 454917 NFP
Installation Recommendations
Before starting work, disconnect the vehicle battery to avoid electrical shorts. The ESP yaw rate sensor is typically mounted near the vehicle center (for example on the transmission tunnel or under the centre console) to accurately measure vehicle rotation. To replace:
- Remove the necessary interior trim panels to access the sensor.
- Unplug the electrical connector and unscrew the sensor mounting bolts.
- Fit the new sensor in the correct orientation, tighten fasteners securely, and reconnect the plug.
- Reconnect the battery and clear fault codes with a diagnostic tool. Calibrate or perform the required ESP/yaw sensor adaptation using a compatible scan tool before road testing to ensure proper system function.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
Failures are commonly caused by moisture ingress and corrosion, damaged or loose electrical connectors, mechanical impact from collisions, and internal electronic faults caused by age and thermal cycling. Intermittent wiring or poor grounding may also produce erroneous sensor readings that trigger stability system warnings.
Symptoms Of A Faulty Sensor
- ESP/ABS warning lamp illuminated on the dashboard.
- Loss or inconsistent operation of stability control and traction interventions.
- Stored fault codes related to yaw rate or sensor signal in the ABS/ESP ECU.
- Unstable vehicle behaviour during cornering or slippery conditions.
Practical Tips
This sensor is not a routine wear item; replace it when diagnostic trouble codes persist or when stability-control symptoms are present. Always match product codes 0265005606 and 9649776180 when ordering to ensure fitment. After fitting, perform calibration/adaptation with a diagnostic tool and verify that no faults remain before returning the vehicle to the customer or resuming normal use.
