Vehicle Yaw Sensor with Vehicle Lateral Accelerometer Replacement Escalade

Removal Procedure

  1. Remove the front floor console bezel. Refer to Floor Console Bezel Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gages, and Console.

  2. Object Number: 788229  Size: SH
  3. Disconnect the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer electrical connector.
  4. Remove the 3 yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer nuts.
  5. Remove the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer from the vehicle.

Installation Procedure

    Important: Use care not to bend or distort the bracket that supports the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer.

  1. Install the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer to the bracket.

  2. Object Number: 788229  Size: SH

    Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  3. Install the 3 yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer nuts to the bracket.
  4. Tighten
    Tighten the nuts to 10 N·m (89 lb in).

  5. Connect the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer electrical connector.
  6. Install the front floor bezel. Refer to Floor Console Bezel Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gages, and Console.
