Town & Country V6-4.0L (2008)
Lateral Accelerometer: Description and Operation
DESCRIPTION
The Yaw Rate and Lateral Acceleration Sensors are housed into one unit known as the Dynamics Sensor (2). The sensor is used to measure side-to-side
(Lateral) motion and vehicle rotational sensing (how fast the vehicle is turning - Yaw).
The dynamics sensor (2) is secured with two screws to a stamped steel mounting bracket (4) welded onto the top of the floor pan transmission tunnel
near the base of the dash panel, just forward on the center instrument panel support in the passenger compartment. It is mounted next to the Occupant
Restraint Controller (ORC).
Yaw and Lateral Acceleration Sensors cannot be serviced separately. The entire Dynamics Sensor must be replaced when necessary.
