Introduction

The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is a system that helps drivers maintain control of their vehicles. It works by monitoring the driver’s steering input and vehicle speed, and then applies corrective braking force to individual wheels as needed in order to keep the car on its intended path. If your ESP light has come on, it means there is something wrong with the system and needs to be reset. This article will explain how you can reset your ESP sensor. 

What Causes The ESP Light To Come On?

There are several reasons why your ESP light may have come on: 
•    A malfunctioning wheel speed sensor or other related components such as ABS sensors; 
•    Low tire pressure; 
•    Faulty wiring or connectors;  
•    Damaged suspension components; or  
•    Software issues within the ECU.   

 How To Reset Your ESP Sensor? 

 There are two ways you can reset your ESP sensor: manually or using a diagnostic tool. Let’s take a look at each option in more detail:  

 Manual Resetting Of The Sensor:  

 1. Start by turning off all accessories such as air conditioning, radio, etc., and make sure the engine is off too.    

 2. Open up the hood of your car and locate the fuse box – this should be near where you insert keys into for ignition purposes – then remove any fuses related to ABS/ESP systems from their slots in the fuse box for about 30 seconds before replacing them back again securely into their respective slots .     

 3. Turn on all accessories again followed by starting up your engine after which point you should notice that both warning lights have gone out indicating that they have been successfully reset .   

 4. Take your car for a test drive around some bends just so that you can confirm whether everything is working correctly or not .     

 Using A Diagnostic Tool :    

 1 . Connect an OBD-II scanner tool to access information from various electronic modules located inside of cars like yours , including those pertaining to ABS/ESP systems .       

 2 . Follow instructions provided by either manual included with device itself , online tutorial video , etc., depending upon what type of scanner tool being used until connection between device & vehicle has been established & data retrieved from relevant module(s).        

 3 . Use menu options available through device's interface screen in order select "Reset" option when prompted - this should clear any fault codes stored within module & turn off warning lights associated with them also once complete process finished running its course successfully without interruption occurring during same time frame too !  

     
4 Finally , disconnect scanner tool from vehicle before taking it out onto open road once more so that newly installed settings can take effect properly without any further problems arising afterwards either!

      
Conclusion        

In conclusion, if your esp bas light on it could mean there is something wrong with one of many different components related to esp system itself such as wheel speed sensors , abs sensors , faulty wiring / connectors etc.. Thankfully though there are two ways which we discussed above - manual resetting via removing certain fuses found inside fuse box area & using diagnostic tools connected directly into obd-ii port underneath dashboard - both these methods should help get rid problem quickly efficiently without having spend large amounts money doing so either!
