Braking System

DTC C006102 indicates the Intelligent Power Brake (IPB) system received a lateral acceleration (Ay) sensor signal outside the plausible range or with an abnormal status.

This sensor typically integrates with the longitudinal acceleration (Ax) sensor and yaw rate sensor into a single inertial sensor module mounted in the center of the vehicle chassis or under a seat.

It provides a key input signal for the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system, Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), and electronic parking system.

When this fault triggers, the IPB system cannot accurately obtain the vehicle's lateral dynamic parameters, limiting or disabling the body stability control function.

This condition may also trigger a chain reaction fault in the electronic parking system, severely compromising vehicle stability and safety during cornering or emergency evasive maneuvers.

The '02' suffix in the fault code indicates a signal plausibility error, meaning the signal value logically conflicts with the vehicle's actual condition or data from other sensors.

Yaw rate sensor internal fault triggered C006102

Owner reported the instrument panel displayed "Check Electronic Parking System". The fault persisted after power cycling. Scanned vehicle systems with a diagnostic tool; the Integrated Power Brake (IPB) logged DTCs C006102 (IPB 0x223 message Ay signal value error), C006202 (IPB 0x223 message Ax signal value error), and C006302 (IPB 0x222 message Yaw signal value error). All module software versions were current. IPB connector power supply measured normal. Yaw Rate Sensor (integrated lateral acceleration sensor) power supply and CAN lines measured normal. Determined internal fault in the Yaw Rate Sensor. Replaced the Yaw Rate Sensor assembly (located in the centre of the vehicle chassis or beneath the seat, integrating lateral and longitudinal acceleration sensors). Fault resolved.

Loose inertial sensor mounting caused signal anomaly

ESP warning light suddenly illuminated while driving, with the instrument cluster displaying 'Check ESP System' and 'Check Electronic Parking System' messages. Driver noticed abnormal stability control intervention during cornering. Connected a scan tool and retrieved IPB system DTCs: C006102 (Lateral Acceleration Sensor Signal Value Error) and C006108 (Lateral Acceleration Sensor Signal Fault). Checked IPB module power supply (12V) and ground—both normal. CAN bus communication waveforms showed no abnormalities. Lifted the vehicle and found the yaw rate sensor (inertial sensor) mounting bracket bolts loosened from underbody scrape damage, shifting the sensor position and causing the lateral acceleration signal (Ay) output to exceed acceptable limits. Re-aligned the yaw rate sensor mounting position, tightened the mounting bolts to specified torque (9-11N·m), performed the 'Yaw Rate Sensor Calibration' procedure using the factory scan tool, cleared the fault codes, and road tested with normal results.

Poor contact at sensor wiring harness connector

Vehicle intermittently displayed electronic parking system fault warnings, especially after driving on bumpy roads. Scanned the IPB system and found stored historical DTCs C006102 (lateral acceleration signal value error) and C006164 (signal status bit error). The yaw rate sensor showed no external damage, but measuring the supply voltage revealed occasional jumps (should be stable 12V). Further inspection found a backed-out terminal at pin 15 (Ay signal line) inside the 24-pin sensor harness connector, causing excessive contact resistance and signal distortion. Reseated the backed-out terminal and repaired the connector, replacing the entire sensor harness plug if necessary. Confirmed good contact, cleared the DTCs, and resolved the fault.

C006102 caused by failure to calibrate sensor after accident repair

After a front-end collision and repairs (replacement of front bumper, radiator support, etc.), the instrument cluster displayed persistent "Check Electronic Parking System" and "ESP Fault" warnings. The vehicle drove normally, but the stability system did not function. A scan tool retrieved IPB DTCs C006102 (Lateral Acceleration Signal Error) and C051D01 (IPB Yaw Rate Sensor Calibration Error). The yaw rate sensor—new, replaced during the accident repairs—had no external damage and the wiring harness connections were normal. Repair history showed the sensor had not been recalibrated after replacement. The technician parked the vehicle on level ground, connected a dedicated diagnostic tool (VDS2000/3000), and accessed the IPB system. They ran the "Inertial Sensor Calibration" or "Yaw Rate Sensor Calibration" routine, followed the prompts to complete the vehicle level calibration and sensor zero-point learning, and cleared the DTCs after successful calibration. The warning lights went out and the system returned to normal.
