Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does an ABS sensor do?

An ABS sensor monitors the rotational speed of a wheel and sends this data to the vehicle's anti-lock braking system (ABS) and traction control modules. This information is crucial for preventing wheel lock-up during braking and maintaining stability.

How do I know if my ABS sensor needs replacement?

Common signs include the illumination of the ABS warning light on your dashboard, unusual noises during braking, or a reduction in braking performance and stability.

Is this sensor compatible with all Peugeot 207 models?

This sensor is compatible with specific Peugeot 207 models (e.g., 207 (WA_, WC_), 207 SW (WK_)) manufactured from 04/2013 onwards and without parking assistant systems. Always verify your vehicle's exact specifications against the product details.

What is the length of the Ridex 412W0912 ABS sensor?

The length of the Ridex 412W0912 ABS sensor is 745 mm.

Can I install this ABS sensor myself?

Yes, if you have basic mechanical knowledge and the necessary tools. However, professional installation is recommended to ensure it's fitted correctly and safely.

What does 'Active sensor' mean?

An active sensor requires electrical power to operate and typically generates its own signal, often providing more precise data compared to passive sensors.

Which vehicles is this sensor compatible with?

This sensor is compatible with select Peugeot models (207, 208 I, 2008, 301), Citroën models (C4 Cactus, C3 Picasso, C3 III, C3 Aircross II, C-Elysée), and potentially compatible Vauxhall models (depending on specific year and model fitment within the given construction year range).

Troubleshooting

ABS warning light remains illuminated after installation.

Ensure the sensor is correctly seated and the electrical connector is securely attached. Clear any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) using an OBD-II scanner and check if the light reappears. Verify correct part compatibility.

Intermittent ABS or traction control malfunction.

Inspect the wiring harness for any damage, kinks, or corrosion. Ensure the sensor is not loose and is properly mounted. A poor connection or damaged wire can cause intermittent issues.

Vehicle shows incorrect speed readings or poor performance.

Reconfirm the sensor's compatibility with your vehicle. Ensure the sensor is clean and free from metallic debris that could interfere with its magnetic field. Check for any obstructions around the sensor or tone ring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Verification:

Before installation, confirm that this ABS sensor is compatible with your specific vehicle model, year, and trim. Check the "Compatible PEUGEOT models," "Compatible CITROËN models," and "Construction Year" specifications against your vehicle's details. Ensure your vehicle is *not* equipped with a parking assistant system, collision warning system, or park distance control, as this sensor is designed for vehicles without these features.

Installation:

  1. Safely lift and support the vehicle.
  2. Locate the faulty ABS sensor on the rear axle (left or right side).
  3. Disconnect the electrical connector of the old sensor.
  4. Remove the old sensor, which may be held by a bolt or clip.
  5. Clean the mounting area on the wheel hub or axle.
  6. Install the new Ridex 412W0912 ABS sensor.
  7. Secure the sensor with its mounting hardware.
  8. Reconnect the electrical connector.
  9. Lower the vehicle.

*Note: Professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with automotive repairs.*

Care:

This is a sealed electronic component and generally requires no maintenance. Keep the area around the sensor clean to prevent debris buildup. Avoid using high-pressure washing directly on the sensor or its wiring.
