  • Method for the detection of faulty installation of sensing devices in a vehicle
    Publication number: 20010016791
    Abstract: A method for the detection of faulty installation of vehicular motion sensing devices compares the output signals of the sensing devices, which represent angular yawing speed values. Large deviations between these values are interpreted as installation errors, and a control unit causes the dynamic regulation of vehicle movement to be disabled. The particular type of installation error can also be determined by the inventive method, and presented on a display.
