Standard Motor Products Intermotor Yaw Rate Sensor

The Standard Motor Products Intermotor Yaw Rate Sensor (also called a yaw sensor, suspension yaw sensor or stability control turn rate sensor) is a replacement part for a vehicle's electronic stability control system. It measures the vehicle's rotation about its vertical axis and sends that signal to the onboard computer.

How It Works:

• Measures angular velocity about the vertical axis to detect how the vehicle is turning during hard cornering or a possible rollover.
• Sends data to the vehicle's computer. The computer compares it with wheel speed, steering angle and accelerator position inputs.
• If the system detects too much yaw, it can reduce engine power and apply braking to one or more wheels to help realign the vehicle.

Key Features:

• Designed as a direct-fit replacement for the original sensor.
• Built with durable materials intended for demanding under-vehicle conditions.
• Backed by the engineering and quality control of Standard Motor Products, a leading engine management brand. Intermotor is part of the Standard Motor Products family of brands.

Installation Note: The sensor is typically mounted on the floorboard near the vehicle's center of gravity, often under a front seat. A reset or recalibration procedure is generally required after installation.
