Default C70 ABS Fault

Hi, to anyone that may be able to assist me please. I have a 2007 C70 that reads Anti-skid Service Required in the drivers information window. Diagnostics read the fault code 0130 Brake Pressure Sensor, this fault code will not reset.
Going in to Live data for the Brake Presure Sensor it reads a near constant 214 bar, and this does not alter with the depressing of the brake pedal.
Any thought or pointers from the experts please?

assume you have brakes so that'd suggest the pressure sensor is wonky. the sensor sits in the "snout" of the master cylinder - google "volvo 31687031" for replacement parts/diagrams etc. Looks to be about $75 for the part (web dealer store price). I suppose you can also measure resistance across the sensor's connector (the part not the harness) to see if it changes with pedal pressure as a test. that will help determine if its the sensor or wiring.

Thank you for coming back to me with your assistance, much appreciated. Yes I have brakes so I will obtain and change the sensor. BTW, I'm from the UK so the $ price doesn't apply.

I have replaced the suggested sensor "volvo 31687031" which actually is fitted in to the brake servo unit. This has not rectified the fault. I'm not sure on how to move forward to secure a positive outcome.
Any suggestions please?

Sorry to bring up such an old thread bht I’m having the same issue with anti skid, 0130 and my brake pressure reading is stuck at 214 bar, I know this was 6 years ago but did you ever get to the bottom of it?
