Yaw Rate Sensor: Testing and Inspection
Yaw Rate / G Sensor Assembly On-Vehicle InspectionLongitudinal G Inspection
1. Calibrate yaw rate / G sensor assembly referring to Sensor Calibration.
2. Park and level the vehicle with parking brake and fix wheels with chokes.
3. Check yaw rate / G sensor assembly installation condition.
4. Connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector (DLC) (1) with ignition switch OFF.
5. Turn ignition switch to ON position and select menu "DATA LIST" mode of SUZUKI scan tool.
Refer to scan tool operator's manual for further derails.
6. Check "G Sensor" under "DATA LIST" of SUZUKI scan tool in the following vehicle conditions.
^ Level condition
^ Front-up condition
^ Rear-up condition
If Longitudinal G condition is out of specification, replace yaw rate / G sensor assembly.

NOTE:
^ Drive the vehicle on level ground and at 10 km/h (6.2 mph).
^ Minimum turning radius is 5.3 m (17.4 ft).
[A]: Right turning "a": Approx 5.3 m (17.4 ft.)
[B]: Left turning
