Hi folks, my MM show the DTC C1959 (Lateral Accelerometer Sensor Circuit Failure)

Check the harness benind the cam cover on the drivers side. Might be rubbing on a bolt.

Okay, will do it tomorrow, thank you for help. Is this a typical failure at the Marauder? And, where is the sensor located and which role has the unit?

No, just stick your hand behind the left side cam cover.

DTC C1959 isn't listed in the factory service manual.
The only thing I can think of is that it's the sensor in the Restraint Control Module.
There are 4 sensors in the Supplemental Restraint System: one mounted to the radiator support, one under each front seat, and one built-in to the RCM. That one is not separately serviceable, so I hope that isn't it, but that's all I got.
