Gyro (Rotation) Sensor

The navigation computer contains the electronic (piezo) Gyro sensor that detects rotation (yaw) of the vehicle as a confirmation that the vehicle is turning. The signal provided by the gyro is a mili-voltage that changes as the vehicle rotates. The navigation computer uses the input to track the vehicle along the digitized map and display the exact vehicle position.

The signal is available in the sensor test page of the service mode for diagnosis. The sensor is not a separately serviceable item and does not require calibration.
