Yaw Rate Tuning
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2015 Honda Crosstour, 2014 Honda Crosstour, 2013 Honda Crosstour, 2012 Honda Crosstour, and 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
This diagnosis allows you to graphically display problems with the yaw rate sensor.
- The ANG-Disp value accumulates any differences between the offset and sensor voltages (see YAW RATE diagnosis). When the sensor functions properly, the random changes in these two voltages generally cancels out, so the value is 0. However if one voltage is consistently higher than the other, then the ANG-Disp value accumulates the constant change.
- The Reset button temporarily clears the angular accumulation (ANG-Disp), and clears the display dots.
- Do not touch the CCW, CW, or Set buttons. These are used for factory setup only.
Two tests are explained. For large problems with the sensor values, the stationary test usually confirms whether the sensor is defective. For yaw rate issues related to driving, do the road test.
- Stationary test: If the VP icon spins in place and the ANG-Disp value slowly increases or decreases in value, the yaw rate sensor is defective. Replace the navigation unit (see NAVIGATION UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
- Road test: Drive the vehicle on a very straight road. Enter the diagnostic mode, select Yaw rate, and touch the Tuning button. While driving down a straight road, the white dots should trace a straight line across the screen. However, if you are driving on a straight road, and you notice the dots constantly dropping down or heading up as you drive, the navigation unit's yaw late sensor is defective. You can touch Reset to clear ANG-Disp, and dotted lines.
If either test above fails, please enter Yaw rate sensor defective for the problem description, on the Navigation core return form.
NOTE: The CCW, CW and Set buttons are disabled and cannot be activated.
