Location of Yaw rate Sensor in A150 (W169) 2005
My daughter has just bought a 1500cc, 2004, A 150 ( W169) and it comes up with ESP fault. I am reliably informed that the fault code using a diagnostic tester; states it is a fault with the Yaw sensor, i.e it requires replacement. can any one please tell me where this is located on the model referred to any tips on how to get to it or links to pictures etc would be well appreciated Thanks in advance Mike
