The lateral accelerometer and the yaw rate sensors are combined into one sensor external to the electronic brake control module (EBCM). The vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) uses the lateral accelerometer input when calculating the desired yaw rate. The usable output voltage range for the lateral accelerometer is 0.25-4.75 volts.
The ignition is ON.
• | The yaw/lateral combination sensor fails an internal self test. |
• | Ignition voltage to the yaw/lateral combination sensor is less than 9.5 volts. |
• | Communication is lost between the EBCM and the yaw/lateral combination sensor. |
• | The EBCM turns OFF the 5-volt reference circuit, until the ignition is cycled. |
• | The driver information center (DIC) displays the Service Stabilitrak message. |
• | The ABS indicator turns ON. |
• | The condition for the DTC is no longer present and the DTC is cleared with a scan tool. |
• | The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles. |
• | If the yaw and lateral acceleration sensor is disconnected, DTCs will set and the EBCM will not provide 5-volt reference. |
• | The yaw rate and lateral accelerometer sensors are located in one unit and cannot be serviced separately. |
• | A poor ground connection for the EBCM may cause this DTC to set. |

Control Module References for EBCM
⇒ | If greater than 1 ohm, test the ground circuit terminal and the EBCM ground circuit terminal for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the EBCM. |
⇒ | If all circuits test normal, replace the yaw and lateral accelerometer sensor, and clear the yaw rate sensor offset value in the EBCM. |
⇒ | If the DTC sets again after replacing the yaw and lateral accelerometer sensor, replace the EBCM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
