Anyway the esc lights are still coming on is this another fault!! Most likely, it will be the drivers side abs sensor. Best to get a code reader on the car, just to make sure it is that side. It’s very common on the Mondeo and Smax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpyJoe Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Hello everyone, I have a 66 reg plate S-Max and I've recently started having the same three error messages on the dashboard as the original poster and many others in this thread. I've bought vlinker as recommended on this forum and run the test for errors. At first I've reset all old errors, drove for a day and run it again to end up with 10 errors. As I understand I need to replace the front left ABS sensor, but so far I've had no luck finding it anywhere to buy. Perhaps someone knows where I could buy one? I have no idea what other codes mean and why I have so many as the car drives fine with no other issues. Could someone please help me with explaining what they mean and if they are major issues? I've taken pictures of all codes that can be seen in the Google Photos album that I've created: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ALAqk1vKkSEzKx329 One final question would someone know if any of the issues I have are covered by Ford extended warranty (Ford Protect) as it only covers mechanical and electrical faults. Thank you for your time. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No big mystery, just drive to your local Ford main dealers pop in to the 'Parts Department' and buy one. Replace the ABS sensor. Clear all the DTC's. Check that they have all cleared then go for a drive and see what comes back. Most of those codes are spurious, possibly caused by loose or bad battery connections. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russats Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Also, once the new sensor is fitted. Drive it a bit, use the brakes. Otherwise you’ll panic and think the fault is still there lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpyJoe Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I'm happy to say that I've managed to replace the sensor safely and the error has disappeared. Non of my local dealerships had the part in stock so they had to order it from Ford hence the delay. The extended warranty that I have has been useless as all local dealerships still wanted to charge me £150 for diagnostics even though I told them that I used Forscan to find the fault. I've still got one DTC left but I believe it's nothing to do with the ABS sensor: B109F:97-0A Intrusion Sensor Module - Component or System Operation Obstructed or Blocked Thank you to everyone for their help and advice. This forum is an amazing place with lots of much needed information. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I don't have anything there and never used an air freshener. Is it something to do with the inside ultra sonic sensor then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies for late response, just saw your post. Unfortunately I did have some trouble because of it. Not long ago my kids left the rear window open and someone managed to climb through the window at night and went through the glove compartment and the elbow rest box in the middle. Thankfully we don't keep anything valuable in the car so only some change was stolen. When we checked the CCTV we could clearly see that the alarm didn't go off. It did work when I bought the car as even the smallest movement inside the car (when it's locked) would sound the alarm. I'm still unable to find a solution on how to replace the sensor myself.

GregJaeger_RS Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Hi, I had the issue that many are reporting back in 2021 on my 66 plate SMax with adaptive power steering. After a battery change it was deemed by Ford that the steering wheel was the cause. We had a new steering wheel fitted (900 quids worth) and the issues all went away! This week, everything just came back! Back to Ford to see if we need another new steering wheel or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshie_miles Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 This seems to be the part number, but damned if I can find it anywhere that isn't crazy expensive! Isn't it just the mondo sensor, is it compatible has anyone tried? https://www.autodoc.co.uk/metzger/15819198?gshp=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw9J2iBhBPEiwAErwpee1eOXARMZM_9o-0q2AFTfUGndaXBhxrp8pDfhKRFV5CMu5hI1JGlhoC_OMQAvD_BwE Otherwise, if anyone can point me to somewhere it's priced around £30 I'd be very grateful. Oh - and for info, I cleaned the electrical connector and it worked faultlessly, for about a week. Then came back with a vengeance. The brakes are warm after a long drive so I think the ABS is slightly on the whole time those lights are on? The rear park brake warning also comes on more regularly where it feels like the brakes are applied, steering assist is partially off.... horrible fault. Thanks!

Dapper Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Hi all, I have the same issue on my 66 plate s-max. Does anyone know the part number for the front r/h speed sensor/ abs sensor - not sure if it's the same thing? I would like to order one and replace myself. Ford were quoting just shy of £200 just to scan for faults. I just want to make sure I don't order the wrong part! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dapper Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Thanks for that. I will check with the seller. On some sites it says this is the part for pre 2015 models but not on others. I notice that some people here say it has been an issue with the sensor and some with corroded wringing. Do you think the sensor comes with a new cable/ wiring? Also, can you recommend a good site to find out the part numbers for front and rear break pads and discs? As you can probably tell, I am very new to all this so it is a learning experience! Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again. These sensors don't come with wiring. You can use the same site as above (7zap) to search for brake parts, or indeed almost any other part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unofix Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 ........and the State Of Charge of the car battery is ? most if not all of the problems you have listed are common when the battery SOC is below 60%. Use a digital multimeter and check the battery voltage at the terminals approximately hour after it has been parked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTC's beginning "Ux xxxx" are communication problems between modules and in most cases they will be resolved once the true fault has been rectified. After checking the battery, I would concentration on the DTC P061B:F1 Is your vehicle and automatic ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabgav Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Will measure battery tomorrow. Yes automatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Check the wiring and connectors (remove the back shell) of the TCM. Look for worn insulation of the wires in and near the TCM connectors. TCM is on the side of the gearbox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
