COMPONENT LOCATION |
GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
When the vehicle is turning with respect to a vertical axis, the yaw rate sensor detects the yaw rate electronically by the vibration change of plate fork inside the yaw rate sensor.
If yaw velocity reaches the specific velocity after it detects the vehicle’ yawing, the ESP control is reactivated.
The lateral G sensor senses vehicle’s lateral G. A small element inside the sensor is attached to a deflectable lever arm by lateral G.
Direction and magnitude of lateral G loaded to vehicle can be known with electrostatic capacity changing according to lateral G.
DTC DESCRIPTION |
A failure is detected if the Yaw rate & lateral G sensor’s message was not received or HECU detects CAN Bus off state for more than the specified failure detection time.

DIAGNOSTIC CIRCUIT DIAGRAM |
TERMINAL AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION |
1. | Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness(es) and terminal condition. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage. |
2. | Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. |
3. | Has a problem been found?
|
POWER CIRCUIT INSPECTION |
■ Open or Short Check |
1. | Ignition “ON” & Engine “OFF”. |
2. | Measure voltage between power terminal of the Yaw Rate & Lateral G sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
|
3. | Is the measured value within specifications?
|
GROUND CIRCUIT INSPECTION |
■ Open or Short Check |
1. | Ignition “OFF” & Engine “OFF”. |
2. | Disconnect yaw rate & lateral G sensor connector. |
3. | Measure resistance between ground terminal of the yaw rate & lateral G sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
|
4. | Is the measured value within specifications?
|
SIGNAL CIRCUIT INSPECTION |
■ Short Check (to ground) |
1. | Ignition “OFF” & Engine “OFF”. |
2. | Disconnect yaw rate & lateral G sensor, HECU connector. |
3. | Measure resistance between CAN LOW terminal (CAN HIGH terminal) of the yaw rate & lateral G sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
|
4. | Is the measured value within specifications?
|
■ Short Check (to battery) |
1. | Ignition “ON” & Engine “OFF”. |
2. | Disconnect HECU connector. |
3. | Measure voltage between CAN LOW terminal (CAN HIGH terminal) of the HECU harness connector and chassis ground.
|
4. | Is the measured value within specifications?
