Winner ABS Light Lateral Acceleration Sensor

Lateral acceleration sensor faults on the Winner are somewhat common. The ABS light illuminating and the system disabling are typical symptoms. The error code you retrieved points towards a problem within the electronic stability control system. The lateral acceleration sensor provides data related to yaw rate and wheel alignment. Before replacing parts, double-check the sensor's connections and wiring harness. A damaged or corroded connection can cause intermittent faults. Do you know the exact error code?

Thanks for the info! I did wiggle the wires a bit, but didn't see anything obvious. The exact error code is C1145. Does that tell you anything more specific? And when you say 'double-check the connections', what exactly should I be looking for? I'm worried about messing something up even more.

C1145 confirms a defective lateral acceleration sensor. It's likely the control unit itself is faulty. While checking connections is always good practice, the symptoms and the error code strongly suggest internal failure. Given your expertise level, I'd recommend taking it to a qualified workshop for proper diagnosis and repair. Replacing the sensor and recalibrating the system requires specialized tools. Neglecting this can impact vehicle stability.

Alright, sounds like I'm out of my depth. Thanks for the advice! I took it to a reputable shop, and you were spot on – it was the lateral acceleration sensor. The whole repair, including the sensor replacement and recalibration, ended up costing me about 1000€. Expensive, but at least the ABS is working again!
