Also a suggestion for anyone reading. This tool has saved my knuckles countless times. I recommend everyone have at least the straight one. I have ones that are bent also. A screw gun driver will fit, and make an extension for you. You can basically put any bit into it and you have a ratchet drive screw driver.

I updated the first post with the results. After replacing the sensor the warning light and SLS Inactive message both went away.

In GT1 CANbus error (SLS inactive) was not present anywhere. The DSC sensor error showed up in the first screen after a Short Test - but DSC module does not show having an error on the screen where you delete faults.

If I run a test plan on the DSC error it proceeds to read the DSC module and says no fault read. If you run the short test, DSC module does NOT show an "X" indicating a problem in that module.

I will try and clear it by turning/on off between deletes and/or try to find something in the function mode. Maybe its one of those errors that stay because its a clone GT1 - like that stupid BD fault (Brake Force distribution) that always shows but I cannot clear it and I have no way of clearing or even have a test plan.

There's a screen where it will show readings of the DSC sensor (rotation-rate) but I couldn't remember where I found it. I'll go back and look some other time.

I was to eager to get done and stop from being eaten alive by the mosquitos!

BTW .. you can bet that I did NOT completely tighten the hard to get to screw. I just threaded it in enough to stay in place and fuggetboutit!

The highlight indicates to me that replacing the yaw sensor did not remove EBV fault discussed in the forum post https://xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-forums/...ml#post1155712. Right?
