Hi all,
Does anybody know the correct part numbers for the below parts, to fit a 2001 Peugeot 406 HDi 90? I've seen several and the local Peugeot dealer didn't know!
- Throttle position sensor
- Speed sensor for gearbox
The speedo is dropping to zero more frequently now (at least once every 10 miles), so I would like to change it. I'm also trying to fix the random problem I have with brakes, whereby the seem to apply on their own! The symptoms involve the car's engine speed dropping and a reduction in speed despite no movement on the throttle. Off the throttle and back on solves it, but in the darker months I've noticed the brake lights on when it happens. A cheaper attempt at a fix would be the sensor I think. Looks easy to remove.

Re: Throttle and Speeds Sensors
The throttle sensor is easy to remove - and there may be a guide on here about how to clean it out. The sensor itself has very basic workings inside and filling it with contact cleaner or similar seems to work wonders.
As for the speed sensor, I can't help you - not sure if your car has it on the gearbox or it relies on the NSF wheel sensor for data.

Re: Throttle and Speeds Sensors
It did look fairly easy from what I could see when I last looked (had to adjust the clip when I first got the car a few years ago). I'll try contact cleaner first then!GingerMagic wrote: ↑Thu Sep 01, 2022 12:05 pm The throttle sensor is easy to remove - and there may be a guide on here about how to clean it out.

My car seems to have been manufactured February 2001 (that's the month/year all the stickers around the car have on them). I wonder when they switched from the gearbox to the wheel. Will have to have a look and hope it's obvious!
Thank you.

The "DocBackup" disk gives me the following diagram for a HDI 90:
The pedal sensor is shown this diagram (note: the diagram is for the "Bosch" ECU, there is also one for the "Siemens" ECU but it lists the same part number for the pedal sensor (16 072 724 80):

Re: Throttle and Speeds Sensors
Thanks so much for that. I managed to find the speed sensor on good old Autodoc so ordered one for less than a tenner minus shipping.
The throttle/pedal sensor is something I'll clean first. Hopefully get chance to do it before I leave for Cornwall on Saturday if I can get hold of contact cleaner.
