Circuit/System Description
The lateral accelerometer and the yaw rate sensors are combined into one sensor external to the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) uses the lateral accelerometer and yaw rate input to identify when the vehicle is in an abrupt maneuver.
Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The ignition voltage is greater than 9.6 volts. |
| • | The vehicle is stopped or the vehicle speed is greater than 45 km/h (28 mph). |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
One of the following conditions exist:
| • | The yaw/lateral combination sensor signal output voltage to the EBCM is less than 0.15 volt or greater than 4.85 volts. |
| • | The vehicle speed has reached at least 15 km/h (9 mph) from a stop more three times during the same ignition cycle. During the time the vehicle is stationary, the yaw rate signal value is more than 7 deg/sec for 2 seconds. |
| • | When vehicle speed is more than 25 km/h (16 mph) in a turn the difference between the yaw rate, steering angle, lateral acceleration, and wheel speed sensor values are not correlated three consecutive times. |
| • | Yaw rate changes greater than 20 deg/sec in 6 ms four times in one second. |
| • | The yaw/lateral combination sensor fails an internal self test. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The EBCM disables the VSES for the duration of the ignition cycle. |
| • | A DIC message and/or a warning indicator may be displayed. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The condition for the DTC is no longer present. |
| • | The EBCM clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the yaw/lat sensor.
- Ignition OFF for 60 seconds, test for less than 5 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal D and ground.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal B and ground.
- Verify the scan tool Yaw sensor parameter is less than 0 volts.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal E and the 5-volt reference circuit terminal B. Verify the scan tool Yaw sensor is greater than 4.8 volts.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the yaw/lat sensor.
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the EBCM. |
