Hi,

This sounds like it could be a sensor-related issue. However, there are a few things that can cause this code to be set.

When you indicate doing a reset, do you mean you cleared the code? If so, does the same code return? Are there any other codes?

I attached a description of the code and diagnostics below. Take a look through them and let me know if you are comfortable performing them.

Take care,

Joe

I’ve cleared it yes, but I’ve also disconnected the battery and that is the only code coming up and yes it tells me it’s the yaw rate sensor.

Hi,

We need to perform the tests I listed. Are you able to or comfortable performing them?
