The Steer ing Angle Sensor is used t o mea su re rat e/
speed an d direct ion of t he st eerin g wheel. This sen-
sor h as 4 wires 12V, ground and 2 CAN Bus cir cuits.
This sensor is wired directly to the CAN Bus. This
sensor has to be programmed u sing t he DRB III!
(Fig. 5).

DESCRIPTION
The Yaw Rate and Lateral Acceleration Sensor is
housed in to one unit (Fig. 7) (ea c h i n d i v id u a l s e n-
sor can not be replaced separately the whole
housing unit must be replaced when servicing).
The sen sor is used to mea su re side to side (Lateral)
motion a nd vehicle rot ational sen sing (how fast the
vehicle is turn ing). This is a 6–wire sen sor with all
six wires con nected t o the ESP/ABS m odu le.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconn ect the batt ery.
(2) Move t he drivers sea t forward a nd upwards.
