Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 3:  Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the low voltage range.
  2. 4:  Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the high voltage range. If the fuse in the jumper opens when you perform this test, the signal circuit is shorted to ground.
  3. 5:  Tests for a short to voltage in the 5-volt reference circuit.
  4. 6:  Tests the bias voltage of the yaw rate sensor.

  1. Install a scan tool.
  2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  3. With a scan tool, observe the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter in the Vehicle Stability Enhancement System (VSES) data list.
Does the scan tool display that the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter is within the specified range?
0.15-4.85 V Go to Step 6  Go to Step 3 
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor connector.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  4. With the scan tool, observe the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter.

0.15 V Go to Step 4  Go to Step 10 
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the 5-volt reference circuit of the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor and the signal circuit of the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  4. With the scan tool, observe the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter.
Does the scan tool display that the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter is greater than the specified value?
4.85 V Go to Step 5  Go to Step 8 
  1. Disconnect the fused jumper wire.
  2. Measure the voltage between the 5-volt reference circuit of the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor and the low reference circuit of the yaw rate/lateral accelerometer sensor.
Does the voltage measure less the specified value?
5 V Go to Step 12  Go to Step 7 
Does the scan tool display that the Yaw Rate Sensor Input parameter is within the specified range? 2.3-2.7 V Go to Diagnostic Aids Go to Step 11
