Description
Dual sensor, kinetic ESP sensor ATE for Citroën and Peugeot vehicles.
This ATE kinetic (yaw) dual sensor is a direct-fit replacement component used by the ESP/ABS stability control system on selected Citroën and Peugeot models. The sensor measures vehicle rotational movement and dynamic behavior, providing the control unit with precise input to manage braking intervention and stability corrections during oversteer or understeer events. Designed for workshop use, the unit supports reliable diagnostics and restores proper ESP functionality when the original sensor has failed or produced fault codes.
Key Benefits
Reliable measurement of yaw/kinetic movement to ensure correct ESP response, OEM-compatible mounting and connectors for straightforward replacement, and compatibility with common fault-code resolutions in ABS/ESP systems. Ideal for professional mechanics and competent DIYers who perform electronic diagnostics and calibration after replacement.

Installation Recommendations
Before starting, disconnect the vehicle battery to prevent electrical damage. The kinetic/yaw sensor is typically mounted on the vehicle body near the center or close to the ABS/ESP control unit (often under the center console). Remove interior trim as required to access the sensor, unplug the electrical connector, and unfasten the mounting screws. Fit the replacement on a clean, flat mounting surface to preserve sensor alignment and tighten fasteners to the manufacturer’s torque specification where available. Reconnect the electrical connector and the battery. After installation, clear fault codes and perform sensor calibration/initialization with an appropriate diagnostic tool while the vehicle is on a level surface with the steering wheel centered. Finally, verify ESP/ABS operation with a careful test drive.
Why This Part Fails
Common causes of failure include water ingress or corrosion of electrical connections, physical damage from impacts or accidents, internal sensor drift due to age or thermal stress, and wiring harness faults or short circuits. Faulty readings are often indicated by ABS/ESP warning lights, stored error codes, or degraded vehicle stability control performance. Replacing a malfunctioning kinetic sensor and performing proper calibration typically restores normal ESP behavior.
Notes For Mechanics And DIYers
This sensor is commonly searched by its product numbers — include these codes when searching parts databases or ordering replacements. After fitting, always use a diagnostic scanner capable of ESP calibration to avoid persistent faults. If the vehicle shows multiple ABS/ESP error codes, inspect wheel speed sensors and the ABS control unit in addition to the kinetic sensor to locate root causes.
