Fit ABS sensor fault
Summary of the thread
A 2020 Honda Fit hybrid is experiencing an ABS light and failure, with error memory indicating a lateral acceleration sensor fault. The issue occurs randomly and is not influenced by steering angle or specific driving conditions. The problem is likely due to a defective control unit, a known issue, and requires replacement to restore proper ABS functionality.

The code nails it to the sensor, specifically. Happens randomly, not just cornering. Steering angle doesn't seem to affect it. Any ideas?

Right. So, direct sensor fault, intermittent issue... sounds like the control unit itself could be borked. It's a known issue, unfortunately. If you're seeing that specific code, and it's random, I'd brace yourself for a new control unit. Better get it checked at the workshop ASAP. That lateral sensor is pretty important for the electronic stability, you know.

Yep, workshop confirmed. Defective control unit. Quoted 1000€. Thanks for confirming my fears!

Whoa, that sounds gnarly! Lateral acceleration sensor, huh? So, you're getting the ABS light and a total ABS failure? Does it happen all the time, or just during certain maneuvers? Like cornering hard or maybe hitting bumps? And just to be sure, does the error code specifically mention the lateral sensor, or is it more generic, like a general stability control fault?
