Problems with ABS/DSC and airbag warning light on Citroen Jumpy 2012 - suspected faulty steering angle sensor

ABS/DSC system is not working

|

Airbag warning light

|

Fault stored

Hey, I currently have a strange problem with my Citroen Jumpy (built in 2012) with a gasoline engine. The ABS/DSC is not working, the airbag warning light is on and an error has been stored. I suspect that it could be due to faulty communication with the steering angle sensor. Have any of you ever had a similar problem or can you give me troubleshooting tips? How did your garage solve the problem and what was your experience? I would appreciate any advice!

Hi, I had a similar problem with my Citroen Berlingo (built in 2014). I have a bit of experience with cars, but I'm not a professional. At my garage they told me that my cable connection to the sensor was faulty. They replaced it and it cost me 155 euros. Now everything works fine. To help you better, could you give me more info about your vehicle? Have you recently carried out any maintenance work or modifications? Then I might be able to answer your question in more detail.

Hello, thank you for your quick reply! Last service was at 119932 KM km. Since then I have not had anything changed or repaired. I hope this helps and thank you for your help!

Hey, thanks for the additional info! It sounds like you might be right. If your vehicle can't read the steering angle sensor properly, that could be causing the symptoms you're describing. It's also possible that the problem is somewhere else. Maybe it's a problem with the ABS control unit itself or even a problem with the airbag unit. Both could be triggering error messages that are messing up the system. Your next step would probably be to have a mechanic read out the fault code. This should give you an indication of whether your suspicions are correct and where exactly the problem lies. On my Berlingo, reading out and recalibrating the steering angle sensor cost around 50 euros, but of course every garage has its own prices. Hope this helps you a little. Good luck with fixing the problem!

Hello, thank you very much for this detailed answer! Your advice is really useful and the fact that you shared your experience with your Berlingo reassures me a little. I will have the fault code read out and see if the problem is actually with the steering angle sensor or somewhere else. I just hope the cost of the repair won't be too high. Thanks again for your help!
