WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Acura CSX, 2007 Acura CSX, and 2006 Acura CSX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The yaw rate sensor (located in the navigation unit) detects the direction change (angular speed) of the vehicle. The sensor is an oscillation gyro built into the navigation unit.
