Yaw sensor in the Chevrolet Captiva 2012 is a crucial component of the vehicle's stability control system, helping to detect rotational movements and enhance driving safety. Replacing the yaw sensor (R&R) requires careful attention to ensure proper functionality.

First, ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the ignition is turned off. Disconnect the battery to prevent any electrical issues during the replacement process. Locate the yaw sensor, typically found under the center console or beneath the seats, depending on the model year.

To access the yaw sensor, remove any necessary trim panels or carpeting. Carefully disconnect the electrical connector from the sensor. Using the appropriate tools, remove the mounting bolts securing the yaw sensor to the vehicle.

Install the new yaw sensor by positioning it correctly and securing it with the mounting bolts. Reconnect the electrical connector to the sensor, ensuring it is firmly attached. Reinstall any trim panels or carpeting that were removed earlier.

Reconnect the battery and start the vehicle. It's important to reset the stability control system, which may require a diagnostic tool or following specific procedures outlined in the vehicle's service manual.

Finally, test drive the vehicle to ensure the yaw sensor is functioning correctly and that no warning lights are present on the dashboard. Properly replacing the yaw sensor in the 2012 Chevrolet Captiva ensures optimal stability and safety while driving.
