Windstar ABS Lateral Acceleration Sensor Issue

I encountered a similar problem with my Windstar. The error code you are seeing, related to the lateral acceleration sensor, typically points to a fault within the control unit itself. Have you noticed any unusual handling characteristics or instability during turns?

Unusual handling? Hmm, now that you mention it, it does feel a little 'floaty' sometimes, especially on highway curves. Is that what you mean? What did you end up doing to fix your Windstar? Was it expensive? I'm dreading this...

Yes, the 'floaty' feeling aligns with the symptoms I experienced. Unfortunately, in my case, the control unit was indeed defective and required replacement. I recommend having a qualified workshop assess the control unit to confirm the diagnosis. While it might be possible to repair the unit, replacement is often the more reliable long-term solution.

Thanks so much for the info! I took it to the shop, and you were spot on. They confirmed it's the control unit and quoted me around 1000€ for the replacement and recalibration. Ouch! But at least I know what's up. Thanks again!
