steering wheel position signals
When driven forward in a straight line, the centered steering angle differs by
more than 30 degrees from the centered steering angle when the sensors are
initialized
Step 1: Yes
Step 2: Yes, (may need to rotate steering wheel one revolution for the code to
reset)
Step 3: If the scan tool does not display the parameter, the tech will need to use
the DMM to observe the voltage readings, 5v reference, and low reference. Back
probe sensor signal to determine voltage and rotate steering wheel position lockto-lock taking note of voltages full right, center, and full left.
Note: Straight ahead position should indicate 2.5 volts but does not. This

Vehicle: Mock-up
Symptom: Customer states that brakes pulsate when applied (service advisor
verified customer concern with road test).
Fault Set-up Time: Less than 5 minutes with mock-up preparation completed
prior to course.
Fault Set-Up Steps:
1.
Number each wheel stud location on the hub and brake rotor using a marker.
2.
Install a Brake Align correction plate between each rotor and the wheel hub to
cause excessive rotor runout that is greater than 0.050 mm (0.002). Use a
dial indicator to verify the presence of excessive runout. Note that a correction
plate is available in three sizes and can provide 0.003, 0.006, and 0.009
additional runout if installed to create this fault.
3.
Secure each brake rotor to its hub using the conical washers and wheel lug
nuts.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer connector
and EBCM connector.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the yaw rate frequency circuit and ground.
If less than infinite resistance, test the yaw rate frequency circuit for a short
to ground.
3. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance on the yaw rate frequency circuit
between the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer connector and EBCM
connector.
If greater than 1 ohm, test the yaw rate frequency circuit for an open/high
resistance.
4. Replace yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer, and clear the yaw rate sensor
offset value in the EBCM. If C0196 28 is still current, replace the EBCM.
SI can not address every issue that may arise associated with a DTC or
symptom. When working with the new Lean Diagnostics it is assumed that
the DSC-V is being followed. In the DSC-V many things need to be done
thouroughly, such as inspect fuses and connections. When the circuit
testing is performed it is crucial that you ensure that all powers, grounds,
and communications are adequate at the component(s) even though SI may
not specifically indicate that particular test. Always check the basics before
part replacement even if the test is not spelled out. Use all resources such
as schematics, D&O, and the scan tool data parameters and special
functions in order to make a well educated repair.

C0196 00
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer connector.
2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the low reference
circuit and ground.
If greater than 1 ohm, test the low reference circuit and the EBCM ground
circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test
normal, replace the EBCM.
3. Test the lateral accelerometer signal circuit, the 5-volt reference circuit, and the
low reference circuit for an open/high resistance or a short to voltage or
ground.
If all circuits test normal, replace the yaw rate sensor/lateral accelerometer,
and clear the yaw rate sensor offset value in the EBCM.
If the DTC sets again after replacing the yaw rate sensor/lateral
accelerometer, replace the EBCM.
The technician then takes measurements at the sensor cluster. The technician will
note that voltage is present on the low reference circuit (there is approximately 3
volts when no voltage should be present under correct conditions). This will
indicate that an open fault exists on circuit 719. Two of the original 5 volts is being
bled through the sensor into other areas of the sensor cluster leaving 3 volts on
the low reference circuit.
