WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Chevrolet Impala. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the Yaw and Lateral Accelerometer Sensor Volt reference terminal and 5 volts. Install a jumper wire between the low reference circuit terminal 6 and ground.
  2. Sweep the sensor through the entire range while monitoring the resistance between the signal circuit terminal and the low reference circuit terminal. The voltage should vary between 0.25-4.75 volts without any spikes or dropouts.
    • If not within the specified range or is erratic, replace the Yaw and Lateral Accelerometer Sensor.
