ABS sensor resistance
Both the sensors I've nabbed from a 406 are reading 1600Ohms.
I can't remember if that's good or bad.

That's what I thought, 1100ish, so wondering if one from a 406 would actually work.

Yep, Xantia ones are 1039 ohms and as you say VertVega, it's critical.
I'm worried about your car pictures. Both appear to have failed rear arm bearings going by the negative camber on them!

I thought that's a disguishing characteristics of a XantiaCitroJim wrote:I'm worried about your car pictures. Both appear to have failed rear arm bearings going by the negative camber on them!
By the way, mine had that "famous" corrosion there, in addition to failed rear arm bearing

It helps tackle the roundabouts in Milton Keynes Jim, a very useful modCitroJim wrote:Yep, Xantia ones are 1039 ohms and as you say VertVega, it's critical.

Interesting that the sensors are different between peugeot and citroen then. I would have thought that would add to production costs.
Will have to check tomorrow incase they had any more Xantias come in yesterday afternoon.

Ah, I'll take my meter with me tomorrow just in case I get lucky.VertVega wrote:Xac, if my memory serves me right, Xantia front ABS sensor comes in 3 different types, specified according to the orga-number.
I don't remember ranges now

Hi All
It seems important to identify the original sensor type when checking the resistance. Looking through the PSA workshop manuals there seems to be some variation in design resistance valve even for the same generic ABS type. My experience comes from sourcing sensors for XM's where there are at least 3 possibly 4 different types of sensor used on the UK models over the production run. Of particular interest was the Bendix sensors on the early Mk1 XM's where the ring tooth shape was changed and the sensor resistance doubled. The ABS ECU was changed as well. Interestingly the sensors could be mixed even on an axle and the system still worked.
