MSP light flashing green on slow right turn

I've had the MSP light flash green when on a steady right turn, as if the traction control was cutting in, no idea if it actually was as neither braking or accelerating. Only doing 20 mph on right hand corner with a slight dip.

Has anyone else had this? Can't see anything by searching the forum, I was thinking changing the yaw sensor as a good first step, then maybe suspension accelerometers if that fails or get it plugged in but with it happening only 2-3 times now it might be hard to trace.

The traction control still works as normal and there are no other warning lights.

I'd get the diagnostics plugged in before you start replacing bits. My understanding is that there are lots of sensors linked up...

I had it once last year in my QP as I ran wide onto some rough stuff by the road edge.
Scared me to death but it went out and has not reappeared. Sorry not much help I know

That was probably the stability program actually doing it’s job! But still a brown trouser moment

In my case there is no reason at all for it to come on as very low speed and car stable.

Thanks, as the yaw sensor is a Bosch part from various normal cars it is cheap, but yes still worth actually seeing the fault before changing parts and hoping for the best
