You've not been fitting a new stereo, have you? Yaw rate sensor is located in the dash roughly behind the headunit.

No mate, had a knock on the front a few months ago, dealer had to replace abs module as light wouldnt go off, few months down the line im getting this
May just swap it out , seen them on ebay for about £30
Is it a pig of a job, or fairly simple
Cheers
 
Looking at the manual, it's not that straight forward. Different procedures depending whether you have ESP or not as they're two different units. Also, a recode with VCDS is required for the ESP version.

I'd suggest checking the connector on it for security of attachment and contamination if it's only been replaced recently. It's just below the coolant expansion tank in the engine bay.
