2008 Ford Explorer Yaw Sensor Parts Q&A

• Q: How to Service and Repair the Yaw Sensor on 2008 Ford Explorer?

  A: The first step for yaw rate sensor maintenance requires removal of the pin-type retainer along with the left-hand floor console finish panel. The left-hand instrument panel brace requires removal of its two bolts and two nuts before installation where you must use 9 Nm (80 lb-in) torque setting. You should first disconnect the electrical connector from the stability control sensor cluster then remove two floor heater duct bolts on the left side. Disassemble each electrical harness retainer connected to the stability control sensor cluster and place the parts to the side. Loosen the two stability control sensor cluster bracket nuts to access the stability control sensor cluster which should be removed before reinstallation by securing the nuts to 7 Nm (62 lb-in). The installation ends with performing the steps in reverse order to ensure all components are tightly implemented. The installation of new stability control sensor clusters requires ABS module calibration through scan tool instructions.
