Insignia ABS light and lateral acceleration sensor error

Hi, I've got a 2020 Vauxhall Insignia, gasoline engine, and the ABS light keeps popping up. The ABS system seems to be failing intermittently and my diagnostic scan shows an error related to the lateral acceleration sensor. Any ideas?

Summary of the thread

A 2020 Vauxhall Insignia owner experienced an intermittent ABS light issue, with a diagnostic scan indicating a lateral acceleration sensor error. The problem was likely due to a defective control unit, a common issue in Vauxhalls. The recommended solution was to have it checked at a workshop, where the control unit was confirmed as the cause and subsequently repaired.

Hey! That sounds like a pain. Has it been doing it for long? And how many clicks has it got?

It started happening a couple weeks ago, seems to be getting more frequent. It's got 69137 km on the clock. What could be the cause?

Okay, got it. It's likely a defective control unit causing the sensor fault. See a lot of Vauxhalls with this issue. Best bet is to get it checked at a workshop.

Thanks for the help! Took it to the shop and you were spot on. It was the lateral acceleration sensor control unit. Cost 1000€ to fix, but at least it's sorted now.
