DTC C0875: Yaw/Lateral Accelerometer Sensor Circuit Malfunction (Intrigue): Diagnosis
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2001 Pontiac Firebird, 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue, and 2001 Chevrolet Camaro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Perform DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK under DIAGNOSIS & TESTING. Go to next step.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect EBCM. Install Universal Pinout Box (J 39700) with Cable Adapter (J 39700-530) between EBCM and EBCM connector. Turn ignition on, engine off. Using DVOM, measure voltage between universal pinout box terminals No. 16 (Orange wire) and No. 15 (Black/White wire). If voltage is 4.4-5.6 volts, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS . If voltage is not 4.4-5.6 volts, go to next step.
- Turn ignition off. Disconnect yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor. Turn ignition on, engine off. Using DVOM, measure voltage between universal pinout box terminals No. 16 (Orange wire) and No. 15 (Black/White wire). If voltage greater than 4.5 volts, go to next step. If voltage is not greater than 4.4 volts, go to step 5 .
- Using DVOM, measure voltage between universal pinout box terminal No. 16 (Orange wire) and No. 15 (Black/White wire). If voltage is less than 5.6 volts, go to step 8 . If voltage is not less than 5.6 volts, go to step 6 .
- Check Orange wire (5-volt reference circuit) of yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor for short to ground. If problem was found, repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 12 . If problem was not found, go to step 9 .
- Check Orange wire (5-volt reference circuit) of yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor for short to voltage. If problem was found, repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 12 . If problem was not found, go to next step.
- Check Gray/Black wire (ground circuit) of yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor for high resistance or open. If problem was found, repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 12 . If problem was not found, go to step 9 .
- Check yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor connector for poor connections. If problem was found, repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 12 . If problem was not found, go to step 10 .
- Check connector of EBCM for poor connections. If problem was found, repair as necessary. After repairs, go to step 12 . If problem was not found, go to step 11 .
- Replace yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor. See under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. After repairs, go to step 12 .
- Replace EBCM. See ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. After repairs, go to next step.
- Using scan tool, clear DTCs. Operate vehicle. If DTC does not reset, system is okay.
