Default ATTS code 73 fix it or swap it?

Took a sharp left turn and threw code 79. Did some researching and found a lot of people had luck just changing the ATTS computer out with another one. I did this and it worked fine for about 10 minutes, then I threw code 73. I was just looking for some insight on whether this is fixable with a quick swap of parts, or should just say screw it and swap it out for my extra ATTS unit.

Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Alright, I did some more researching and learned quite a bit about yaw rate sensors (Should have done that in the first place ) I pulled out my multimeter and tested the voltage to the connector of the yaw rate sensor. It read 11.0 volts from both wires. Now I guess my question is, what voltage is it supposed to be reading? I am really trying to get my ATTS working before this upcoming track day, so if anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

What year is your car and what year is the new ATTS control unit from? The yaw rate sensor changed between '97 & '98+ ('97 was 8v+, '98+ is 5v). If you only threw a code 79 with your old control unit, I'd put it back in and try your luck at the track day. If it happens again while you're there, just reset your ECU (pull the 7.5a clock/radio fuse in the under-hood fuse box for 10 seconds) and it will also reset your ATTS control unit.
