Hi,

i took my C5 for a diagnostics check as i'm getting ESP/ASR fault on start up the check brought up a RAW sensor fault
i managed to get another RAW sensor and replace it but the fault hasn't gone ........ oh sorry i forgot to mention that
there is an ABS warning light on the dash as well.

any help would be appreciated

What's a RAW sensor, and what year is your C5

[qprdude]

Beat me to it Lighty. Not a lot of info there Tony. The C5 has been around since 2001 in various guises I think.
Diesel, petrol?
Is RAW some sort of remote sensor for emissions data?.

Thought RAW was a digital photography term.

is it Jonathan Woss twying to make Wion sounds RAW... steering angle wheel sensor? Comms unit?

Sorry

the RAW sensor sits behind the handbrake which you can see when pulling the cigarette compartment out
sorry i have a 2.0 hdi C5 2005
when the RAW sensor is faulty it disables the ESP button and puts a ABS warning light on the dash board
i have now managed to track one down and all the faults have cleared thankyou

I think you mean the YAW sensor, it's movement sensor for the
ESP system.
See here> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_(rotation" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Yep, I finally Googled it and came to the same conclusion. RAW showed up in digital photography but never in ABS.
My search engine corrected my terms by asking "Did you mean YAW sensor"

I think you mean the YAW sensor, it's movement sensor for the ESP system.

That makes sense, thanks
I never heard about such a sensor and it was kind of bothering me.
No reasonable information from Google search

Now I checked from service pages and I found this sensor which is under
the Driving Assistance section (A small box fixed with two nuts):
Dynamic Stability Control
- 01 - 4549 10 Twin Sensor ESP
- 01 - 4549 34 Central Inertia Unit

Are we on the right track?
