The yaw rate sensor does not require calibration often. Calibrating the yaw rate sensor might be required after certain service procedures are performed. Some of these procedures are as follows:
- Yaw Rate Sensor replacement
- Electronic Brake Control Module replacement
- Inflatable Restraint Sensing and Diagnostic Module replacement
- Multi-axis Acceleration Sensor Module replacement (UGN)
The yaw rate sensor learn procedure can be completed with a scan tool using the following steps:
- Place vehicle on a level surface
- Apply the parking brake, or set the transmission in the Park position.
- Install the scan tool to the data link connector.
- Ignition ON/Vehicle in Service Mode.
- Select Yaw Rate Sensor Learn in the Electronic Brake Control Module Configuration/Reset Functions list.
