DTC Descriptor
DTC C0292
- VSES Combination Sensor Circuits

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The electronic brake control module (EBCM) supplies an ignition voltage to the yaw rate sensor lateral accelerometer and is monitored via an internal feedback circuit to the EBCM microprocessor.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition is ON.
* Ignition voltage is greater than 9.5 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The yaw/lateral sensor is setting an internal electronic failure.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* Vehicle stability enhancement system is disabled.
* A driver information center message and/or a warning indicator may be displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.
* The EBCM automatically clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 50 consecutive drive cycles.

Circuit/System Verification

Verify DTC U1651 is not set.

If the DTCs is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor.
2. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

• If greater than the specified range, test for an open/high resistance in the low reference circuit.

3. Ignition ON, test for ignition voltage between the ignition circuit terminal 4 and the low reference circuit terminal 1.

• If not the specified value, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

4. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EBCM.
5. If all circuits test normal, replace the yaw/lateral accelerometer sensor. If DTC resets replace the EBCM.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the diagnostic procedure.
