Default Code troubles

Got codes poping up, tried to search for some answers but not finding much help for these

1st - c1234 yaw rate sensor? It's been dealer replaced back in beginning years of its life since recall iv searched but wondering if I have to fix this time and somewhat how 2?

2nd - c1207 p/r range switch?

3rd - c1223 abs of course, I know where it's located under hood but wouldn't know what can throw this off

4th and last but couldn't find this code in the cel codes forum - c1252, read hydro-booster pump motor

Wish I found more online but iv been at this search all day and still scratching my head, coming from my 1st car being a 300zx this computer stuff just sucks way more in this. I just like my cars running right and the check engine light attracts my a.d.d every time I drive haha

My goodness! I'm the same way when a CEL comes up. What year and model GS are you experiencing these issues with?

I dont know about your other codes but I also had the code for YAW sensor. It is very simple to replace. The sensor brand new is like $350 though so I went on eBay and believe it or not bought one for $10. I figured even if it did not work what the hell it was only 10 bucks. But its been 5,000 miles since and no problems. To replace it is very easy takes 15 minutes. Remove your center console. There are 2 bolts that hold the top part on which swings up...and then in the bottom there are 2 more at the bottom rear section. You will have to remove the plastic around your shifter as well. Once you remove your center console....the YAW Rate Sensor is literally sitting there being held down by 2 bolts. Just unplug it, remove the bolts, and replace it with your new one. Hope this helps man. At least you can knock out 1 of your problems.
