DTC 75: Lateral Acceleration Sensor (Joint Failure)

1. Put the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Connect the HDS to the DLC.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
4. Check LATERAL G SENSOR in the VSA DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is LATERAL G SENSOR within ± 1 m/s2?

YES - Go to step 5.

NO - Check the installation of the yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor. Replace the yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor.

5. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
6. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then disconnect the HDS.
7. Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.
8. Connect the HDS, and check for DTCs with the HDS.

Does the VSA indicator come on, and is DTC 75 indicated?

YES - Go to step 9.

NO - Intermittent failure; the most probable cause is that the vehicle has been driven on an extreme canted road. The system is OK at this time.

9. Substitute a known-good yaw rate-lateral acceleration sensor.
10. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
11. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then disconnect the HDS.
12. Test-drive the vehicle around a number of corners.
13. Connect the HDS, and check for DTCs with the HDS.
