Description
Actuator – gear shifting actuator for Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 and Toyota Aygo. For SENSODRIVE robotized gearbox. Tested – 100% functional. From a vehicle with 48,000 km. Up to year 2014.
This high-quality gear shift actuator is a direct-fit unit for vehicles equipped with the Sensodrive robotized transmission. Designed for professional workshops and competent DIY enthusiasts, the actuator restores precise gear selection and smooth automated shifts. It is ideal when the transmission fails to engage gears reliably, exhibits hesitant shifting or displays gearbox fault codes related to the actuator.
Benefits
Reliable replacement for worn or faulty Sensodrive actuators. Restores correct gear selection and improves driving comfort and safety. Suitable for mechanics who demand an OE-fit solution and for owners doing their own repairs.
Technical Information

Fitment And Application
Fits Sensodrive robotized gearbox versions used on Citroën C1, Peugeot 107 and Toyota Aygo models produced up to 2014. This actuator is the electro-mechanical unit that controls gear selection on the automated manual transmission.
How The Part Is Replaced
- Park vehicle on level ground and secure. Disconnect the battery before starting work.
- Raise the vehicle and remove any undertray or gearbox covers to access the actuator housing.
- Unplug the electrical connector and remove mounting bolts securing the actuator to the gearbox.
- Remove the old actuator and fit the replacement, making sure the mating surfaces are clean and connectors fully seated.
- Tighten bolts to the manufacturer’s torque specification and reassemble covers. Reconnect the battery.
- After installation, run a basic diagnostic and perform actuator/gearbox adaptation or calibration if required. A PSA diagnostic tool can be used to verify correct operation and clear related fault codes.
Recommended Tools And Notes
- Basic workshop tools, torque wrench, vehicle lift or jack stands.
- Diagnostic tool recommended for adaptation/calibration after fitment to ensure full functionality.
- Always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s safety procedures and torque values.
Why This Part Commonly Fails
Actuators on Sensodrive systems are exposed to mechanical stress and environmental factors. Common failure causes include electrical motor wear, internal gearbox contamination, moisture ingress or connector corrosion. Symptoms of a failing actuator include intermittent gear selection, transmission fault lights, inability to engage gears or hesitation during automated shifts. Lifespan depends on driving style and conditions; failures are more likely after prolonged use or when fluids/externals are contaminated.
Installation Recommendations
Perform replacement in a clean environment to avoid introducing contaminants into the gearbox. Inspect wiring and connectors for corrosion before reconnecting. If the vehicle shows stored gearbox fault codes, clear them only after the new actuator is fitted and follow up with a test drive and diagnostic check to confirm proper operation.
Additional Information
Used Unit: Removed From Vehicle With 48,000 Km. The actuator is suitable for vehicles up to model year 2014. Always verify fitment against the listed product codes before installation.
