Is there a problem with the yaw rate sensor?
I recently had a problem with the yaw sensor which seemed to coincide with a flat battery. After clearing the fault codes for a second time I checked the yaw sensor function using VagCom. The sensor output changed as the car was rocked side to side then zeroed as the movement stopped. Touch wood, the faults have not re-appeared.

What causes steering angle sensor to be implausibility?
Plausibility faults can be caused by damage or wear to the steering linkages or faulty yaw rate and lateral acceleration sensors. It can be possible for the steering angle to be implausible but no fault codes to be stored. In this case, the customer may complain that the stability system is over sensitive or activating when not expected.

What should I do if my yaw rate sensor is bad?

How can I tell if my car sensors are misaligned?
When both the sensors are misaligned, they will not work properly. Check if this is the cause by looking at the LED lights on both the sensors. You should use green lights, if this is not the cause. When you see red lights flashing one, or lights off in another, check for the alignment.
