DTC 25: Yaw Rate Sensor Malfunction; DTC 26: Lateral Acceleration Sensor Malfunction; DTC 28: Longitudinal Acceleration Sensor Malfunction; DTC 104: Yaw Rate-Acceleration Sensor Malfunction
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Clear the DTC with the HDS.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 25, 26, 28, or 104 indicated?
YES -Go to step 6.
NO -Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Refer to INTERMITTENT FAILURES TROUBLESHOOTING .
- Check the size, air pressure, and the amount of wear of all four tires.
Is the tire condition OK?
YES -Go to step 7.
NO -Replace the tires and/or adjust the air pressure, then recheck by test-driving.
- Check the YAW/G COMBINE SENSOR DIAGNOSIS in the VSA FREEZE DATA with the HDS.
Is YAW/G COMBINE SENSOR DIAGNOSIS NORMAL?
YES -Go to step 13.
NO -Go to step 8.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect the yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector (see step 3 ).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Measure the voltage between yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 4.Fig 1: Measuring Voltage Between Yaw Rate-Acceleration Sensor 4P Connector Terminals No. 1 And No. 4

Is there battery voltage?
YES -Replace the yaw rate-acceleration sensor (see YAW RATE-ACCELERATION SENSOR REPLACEMENT ).
NO -Go to step 12.
- Measure the voltage between yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector terminal No. 4 and body ground.Fig 2: Measuring Voltage Between Yaw Rate-Acceleration Sensor 4P Connector Terminal No. 4 And Body Ground

Is there battery voltage?
YES -Repair an open in the wire between the yaw rate-acceleration sensor and body ground (G502).
NO -Repair an open in the wire between the yaw rate-acceleration sensor and the under-dash fuse/relay box.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Disconnect the yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector (see step 3 ).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Measure the voltage between yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 4.Fig 3: Measuring Voltage Between Yaw Rate-Acceleration Sensor 4P Connector Terminals No. 1 And No. 4

Is there battery voltage?
YES -Go to step 18.
NO -Go to step 17.
- Measure the voltage between yaw rate-acceleration sensor 4P connector terminal No. 4 and body ground.Fig 4: Measuring Voltage Between Yaw Rate-Acceleration Sensor 4P Connector Terminal No. 4 And Body Ground

Is there battery voltage?
YES -Repair an open in the wire between the yaw rate-acceleration sensor and body ground (G502).
NO -Repair an open in the wire between the yaw rate-acceleration sensor and the under-dash fuse/relay box.
- Check the wheel alignment (see
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
).
Is the wheel alignment OK?
YES -Go to step 19.
NO -Make sure the suspension is not modified, and adjust the wheel alignment correctly, and recheck by test-driving.
- Substitute a known-good yaw rate-acceleration sensor (see YAW RATE-ACCELERATION SENSOR REPLACEMENT ).
- Reconnect all connectors.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Clear the DTC with the HDS.
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 25, 26, 28, or 104 indicated?
YES -Go to step 26.
NO -Replace the original yaw rate-acceleration sensor (see YAW RATE-ACCELERATION SENSOR REPLACEMENT ).
- Update the VSA modulator-control unit if it does not have the latest software (see VSA MODULATOR-CONTROL UNIT UPDATE ). If the unit already has the latest software, substitute a known-good VSA modulator-control unit (see VSA MODULATOR-CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).
- Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
- Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.NOTE: Drive the vehicle on the road, not on a lift.
- Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC 25, 26, 28, or 104 indicated?
YES -Check for loose terminals in the VSA modulator-control unit 32P connector. If the VSA modulator-control unit was updated, substitute a known-good VSA modulator-control unit (see VSA MODULATOR-CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ), then retest. If the VSA modulator-control unit was substituted, go to step 1.
NO -If the VSA modulator-control unit was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the VSA modulator-control unit was substituted, replace the original VSA modulator-control unit (see VSA MODULATOR-CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ). If any other DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTCS TROUBLESHOOTING .
