Combined Sensor Inspection

  1. Switch the ignition to off.
  2. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  3. Select the following PIDs and inspect the lateral acceleration and yaw rate. See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)] .
    • LAT_ACCL (lateral acceleration)
    • YAW_RATE (yaw rate)

      1. Verify the LAT_ACCL change when the combined sensor is tilted to the left and right.

      Standard 

      When the sensor is tilted to the right (A): LAT_ACCL changes positively. 

      When the sensor is tilted to the left (B): LAT_ACCL changes negatively.

    2. Yaw rate inspection
      1. Verify the YAW_RATE change when the combined sensor is rotated to the left and right.

      Standard 

      When the sensor is rotated to the right (A): YAW_RATE changes negatively. 

      When the sensor is rotated to the left (B): YAW_RATE changes positively.
