Yaw Rate / G Sensor Removal and Installation

Yaw Rate / G Sensor On-Vehicle Inspection

NOTE:

If you do not take proper precautions when removing and installing the yaw rate / G sensor, you can damage it or cause it to lose its original performance.

- Avoid using an impact wrench to remove or install the yaw rate / G sensor. Using such a tool increases the risk of over-tightening the assembly's bolts and damaging the sensors.
- Be careful not to drop or otherwise expose the sensor assembly to a large impact. If the sensor assembly is dropped or hits hard against something, do not try to disassemble and repair it but replace the sensor assembly with a new one.

Removal

1) Disconnect negative (-) cable at battery.
2) Remove console box referring to Diagrams Console Box Components.
3) Disconnect connector from yaw rate / G sensor.
4) Remove yaw rate / G sensor from sensor bracket.
