FAQs
What does an ABS sensor do?
An ABS sensor monitors the rotational speed of each wheel. This information is sent to the vehicle's Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) control module, which uses it to prevent wheel lock-up during emergency braking.
How do I know if my ABS sensor needs replacing?
The most common sign is the ABS warning light illuminating on your dashboard. You might also notice unusual braking behavior, such as pulsing the brake pedal when it shouldn't, or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking.
What does 'active sensor' mean?
An active ABS sensor generates its own electrical signal, often requiring power from the vehicle. It typically provides a digital signal that is more precise than a passive sensor's analog signal.
What are the key dimensions of this sensor?
The CI XABS1203 has an overall length of 970 mm, a cable length of 860 mm, and a fitting depth of 28 mm.
What vehicles is this sensor compatible with?
This sensor is designed for specific models including the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3-t Bus (B906) 210 CDI (from 03/2009 to 12/2016) and VW Crafter 2E, 2F 2.5D (approx. 2006-2013).
Can I install this sensor myself?
While possible for experienced DIY mechanics, professional installation by a qualified technician is highly recommended to ensure proper function and safety, as the ABS system is critical for vehicle safety.
What are the cross-reference part numbers?
Cross-references include A.B.S.: 30832, ELTA AUTOMOTIVE: EA1127, INTERMOTOR: 61043, LEMARK: LAB793, and MEYLE: 014 800 0117, 014 899 0063.
Troubleshooting
ABS warning light illuminated on the dashboard
This is often the first indicator of a faulty ABS sensor. The CI XABS1203 may need replacement. Have the vehicle's diagnostic codes read to confirm the sensor is the cause.
Intermittent ABS performance or system malfunction
Check the sensor's wiring and connector for damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Ensure the sensor is securely mounted and has not become dislodged.
Vehicle pulled to one side during braking
This can indicate an imbalance in braking force, potentially caused by a malfunctioning ABS sensor on one wheel. Verify the sensor's functionality on all wheels.
ABS system not engaging during hard braking
A failed ABS sensor will prevent the system from detecting wheel speed, thus disabling ABS. Replacement of the faulty sensor is necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification:
Before purchasing, always confirm that the CI XABS1203 part number matches your vehicle's original equipment (OE) part numbers. Key OE references include MERCEDES-BENZ: 9065400317, 9065401117, A9065400317, A9065401117 and VAG: 2E0927748B, 2E0927801B. Also, verify compatibility with your specific Mercedes-Benz Sprinter or VW Crafter model and year.
Installation:
Installation of an ABS sensor typically requires lifting the vehicle and removing the wheel on the side where the sensor is being replaced. The sensor is usually secured by a single bolt and is often located near the wheel hub or brake caliper. The electrical connector must be securely attached. Due to the critical nature of the ABS system, professional installation by a qualified mechanic is highly recommended to ensure correct fitment and function.
Care:
ABS sensors are generally maintenance-free. However, the wiring and connector should be kept clean and free from excessive dirt, debris, or corrosion. Regularly inspect the sensor and its wiring for any signs of physical damage, such as cuts, abrasions, or corrosion, especially after rough driving conditions or maintenance work.
