I have the vehicle listed above throw me a code C0196 for yaw rate sensor I did a reset, and it went off I drove it, it came back on but when I park the car and shut it off it stays off until I start going and get about 20 MPH.

Hi,

This sounds like it could be a sensor-related issue. However, there are a few things that can cause this code to be set.

When you indicate doing a reset, do you mean you cleared the code? If so, does the same code return? Are there any other codes?

I attached a description of the code and diagnostics below. Take a look through them and let me know if you are comfortable performing them.

Take care,

Joe

I’ve cleared it yes, but I’ve also disconnected the battery and that is the only code coming up and yes it tells me it’s the yaw rate sensor.

Hi,

We need to perform the tests I listed. Are you able to or comfortable performing them?
