C0187 Code: Meaning, Causes, and Symptoms | OBD2 Codes
C0187 – Lateral Accelerometer Circuit Range/Performance
C0187 Possible Symptoms
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Warning Light ON,Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
C0187 Possible Causes
Faulty Yaw Sensor/Lateral Accelerometer Sensor,Yaw Sensor/Lateral Accelerometer Sensor harness is open or shorted,Yaw Sensor/Lateral Accelerometer Sensor circuit poor electrical connection
C0187 Description
The lateral accelerometer and the yaw rate sensors are combined into one sensor external to the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM). The vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES) uses the lateral accelerometer input when calculating the desired yaw rate. The yaw rate/lat sensor communicates with the EBCM via discrete CAN Bus High and CAN Bus Low serial data circuits.
