2003 bmw 3.0 e53 Rotation rate sensor

Replaced the rotation rate sensor still reads -69 or -68. Is there another rotation rate sensor I am overlooking . The one i replaced is the one under the center console.
I do have the trifecta lights i am trying to sole. I have had the abs module rebuilt 2 times.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

The fault I am getting other than the trifecta is the followin using a Foxwell NT510. "52 DSC Rotation Rate Sensor Line".
I assume this it reffering to the sensor under the console. Is thi correct?

And thanks for the add administration.

I believe there is a calibration in order when you install. I am pretty confident the Foxwell has the capability.

I dont see where to calibrate it per the Foxwell 510. All i see it when i go to live data it reads ROTATION RATE -68 OR -69 sometimes it will read -67. I have the center console open till i get this fixed.

If anyone knows how please let me know using the foxwell.

Just was reading up on this very problem this morning.
NO CALIBRATING NEEDED.

I have an X3 e83.

Well the rotation rate sensor is fixed.
Replaced the ABS module with a module from a parts car. My buddy has a Autel Scanner and was able to code the ABS module. Once the ABS module was coded the rotation rate sensor started reading.
So if you have this issue start with the ABS module if you have the Trifecta Lights.

Thanks for you guys replying. I hope someone will see this and save themselves a lot of headaches and head scratches.
If someone know how to edit the heading of the post I will add "FIxed" to the post so people will know what I did to fix it. STILL KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED!!

Smart man...
So you didn't have to calibrate the rotation rate sensor? But recode the DSC module?

Once the ABS was coded the rotation rate sensor started reading. 0.0 or 0.1 vs -69 or -68.
So I think the ABS was directly causing the rate sensor to fail. So to answer the question no. I did not have to calibrate the rotation rate sensor. Just the new (used) ABS module.

ABS module needs to be paired to the car. I'm not sure if that also needs to be paired to the individual sensors. Awesome you got it sorted though, X5 without working and is very dangerous.
