• Q: How to replace the Yaw Sensor on 2006 Toyota Matrix?

  A: The first step for replacing the Yaw Rate Sensor requires verification that the sensor remains intact with no drops or damage and complete absence of foreign objects between the Yaw Rate sensor bracket and body. Start by taking out the front seat assembly LH before proceeding to remove the Yaw Rate sensor bracket using its bolt. Detach the connector from the Yaw Rate sensor assembly before removing its two bolts but omit the installation nuts during this process. Fasten the new Yaw Rate sensor assembly through two bolts which require a 21 Nm torque of 214 ft. lbs. or 15 ft. lbs. while reconnecting the connector. The Yaw Rate sensor bracket can be reinstalled with the bolt while applying a torque of 21 Nm (214 ft. lbs., 15 ft. lbs.). After installing the front seat assembly LH you should complete Yaw Rate sensor zero point calibration.
