Jumper brake booster pressure sensor fault

I'm having a serious headache with my 2009 Citroen Jumper diesel. I'm getting an error message on the speedometer, and the brakes feel like I'm trying to stop a train with marshmallows! I scanned it and it's showing a fault with the brake booster pressure sensor. Anyone else run into this? Could this be linked to me recently bleeding the brakes?

I had something similar with my Jumper. That brake booster pressure sensor can be a pain. Was the braking effect poor immediately after you bled the brakes? Might be the root cause...

Yeah, it kinda feels like it's been a problem since I bled them. What did you end up doing to fix yours? I'm hoping it's not a super expensive fix...

Sounds like you might have introduced air into the ABS system when bleeding the brakes. I tried a few things, but eventually had to bite the bullet and take it to a workshop. They sorted it pretty quick, had the right gear to bleed the ABS. Hope it goes well!

Thanks for the tip! Dropped it off at the workshop this morning, and they confirmed it was air in the ABS from the brake bleeding. New pressure sensor and a proper bleed set me back 90€, but at least I can stop now!
