Hi, my name is Steve and I have just joined here hoping that someone could help me out with the faults popping up on my car after I jacked up the front end to inspect and service the brakes, to find out when I had finished and started the car, the dash lit up like a Christmas tree with warnings coming from everywhere. All I did was take the disc pads out and wire brush the calipers, apply copper grease where needed as I put everything back together. Never had to put any new parts on at all. Abs and esp fault, automatic handbrake fault, right wheel and sensor fault, gearbox fault, just to name a few.
I replaced the abs wheel sensor on the right wheel and tested it by monitoring the wheel speed on my artidiag 600s.i have tested the wires feeding the sensor and got a 1.35 reading on 2k ohms which Google told me was fine. I personally don't know. Brake fluid level in all good, all fuses under the bonnet are good. Can see any fuses inside the car relating to abs problems etc. I am at my wits end.
It is a 2011 Peugeot 3008 1.6hdi pan roof.
Fault codes on my last scan as follows
U1213 permanent fault
U0415 permanent fault
C1391 permanent
C1331 permanent
U1219 intermittent
P0606 intermittent
F40A not characterised
C1614 permanent fault
U1313 intermittent
That's the lot, anyone would think I had pulled on every wire in the car to get that many faults. How can this happen from just jacking my car up?
Someone please help.

Hi Steve and welcome,
I would suggest you do a BSI reset following the procedure in the link below and then rescan the car to see what shows:

Re: Lost for words and options
Seems to be a coherence fault rather than a circuit fault . Have you dislodged a bit of rust that is now stuck to the magnetic track on the bearing, or got copper slip on it? Sometimes rust builds up under the sensor and upsets the air gap, or a bit of the track falls off the bearing.

Richard W, thank you for your reply. When I changed the abs sensor for a new one, I made sure the ring was wiped clean of anything that may have got on it. Would the wheel speed sensors not register the speed correctly if there was a fault with the abs ring?

I have just completed the procedure in the link you sent and it didn't do any. When I restarted the car again all the warning lights where flashing up again on the dashboard. Hopefully you have another solution to try.
Many thanks Steve

Re: Lost for words and options
Sorry to say I don't have solutions, just suggestions. I would follow the logical path as Richard suggested. Assuming the lights only came up after your work then it is likely that somehow the work caused the problem. So two things to check are the ABS sensor clearance and the plugs and wiring to the sensor.

Re: Lost for words and options
Thanks mickthemaverick, I tested the feed to the sensor adaptor which was ok and the sensor works ok because it is picking up the wheel speed through it. Looks like my option is to go down the route of changing the abs ring in the hub to eliminate that out of the equation like Richard said. I don't have an oscilloscope to test the ring first which would be the ideal think to do, to save me from having to take it apart if there isn't a fault with it.
Many thanks Steve

Re: Lost for words and options
If you post the fault codes again it helps if you also include the code descriptions. For myself and possibly others, I do not know what the codes mean unless I spend time looking them up which means I and possibly others will not bother and thus be unable to offer any help. For only 1 or 2 codes it is not much of a problem but when there is a long list it is too much.
