There are 3 things to look at your brake light switch, the abs system( expecially the wires) and your front wheel bearings. I have a jacked 2010 4x4 and that those lights let me know my wheel bearings are about to go. I also had a abs wire get pinched and was grounding out up front. Hope that helps
Guys, just disconnect the Negative Battery Cable, clean it with abrasive cloth, reconnect the cable Ensuring that it’s snug and tight, ( removal of the fender firewall brace may be necessary, just four bolts), and you are done. Also you could have a bad battery. GM’s CanBus System requires 12 volts to function properly. The sound of your engine should indicate when your car/ truck is not getting enough voltage.
I know this is an old video. But if you have this problem check your codes. U0101 is a transmission control module failure. It’s $500-600 to replace and have flashed. Good news is that it’s covered under the Federal Emissions Act for 8 years or 80,000 miles. A lot of dealerships don’t even know this. Hope this helps someone out.
I am having this problem, what’s was the cause of the that light I re did a ground I changed the two abs wheel sensors I cleaned my air system and still the same
Your Service Stabilitrak error did not illuminate until you had turned your steering wheel At the 1:12 mark. This tells me that it's your steering wheel position sensor. I had performed many tests eliminating everything that wasn't the issue. This SAS (Steering Wheel Angle Sensor) was my problem until I had replaced this part.
Mine is doing the same thing took the bed off to have body work done and noticed the wires for the abs had broke I agree with couch audio check abs wires and wheel bearings
I had the same problem with my 07 Tahoe 5.3L, I would drive around for a while and those lights would come on, say service TC and Stabilitrak, then cut power and go into limp mode. The repair was pretty simple I just bought a new Throttle Position Sensor (~$50) and installed it at home and now it's good as new.
Chris Elston please help me I have the same tahoe and when that light come on.While Im driving I hit the gas and the car won't move.I just replace the throttle peal today .Still doing the same helpp
Blackhead Howard Well whenever I would step on the gas pedal it would still move, just very slowly. You might have a different problem than I do... I bought
they likely had to disconnect the ABS sensor at the wheel(s) to install the struts and maybe forgot to plug one or more back in. Should be visible behind wheel in the wheel-well. black connector
I have the same problem with mine when my car would sit and idle for a few minutes when the weather with cold. I would have to disconnect my battery to get my truck to run right again. After disconnecting the battery the check engine light would stay on for a little while but it would eventually go out as well
MrBosanacBIH not sure if u got that fixed yet but i just bought the same truck and it is doing the same thing. What i noticed is it comes on as soon as i turn the wheel not when it is rolling. I noticed that yours is doing the same per your video, fyi. I looked it up and it is a sensor on your steering column by your knees. RUclips it. Have a gooder :)
2011 tahoe - replaced with bigger battery cables. Been good since. Did it 6 yrs ago. Factory cables have bad crimp and has a service bulletin from chevy about it.
Having the same problem on my 2010 avalanche hit new rear struts got back in the car and seen the triangle brakes warning and rear stabilitrack off also I just seen my brake fluid is short of full can anyone help me?
Hi sir.. ihave toyota avalon 2012.. There are no any lights or symbols in the dashboard board, but suddenly while driving the check engine and trc off lights turn on, and the traction control shows up also but disappears after 5 seconds then come back again , icant drive the car with this situation. So can you help me with this issue... Thanks
On the 2011 Silverado, I have the same issue. It is a sensor that is located in the steering column. There are 5 total, 1 on each tire and the 1 on the steering column. I was quoted $385 from my local Chevy Dealer.
Okay so my 2011 chevy avalanche LTZ rear left tire had a nail and so we went to a shop to patch it cuz the stabilizer and break light went on. When they patched it it went off then a week later it's back on again. Just took it in to the same shop and they cleared it and right when I reached home the damn lights came back on. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE.
Hi, I feel your pain. I had the same problem. It all started with a "Low oil pressure" signal that went to a "turn off engine now" message. I did, let the truck cool down and restarted. kept getting same message, checked oil and it was fine. Went to a mechanic who said it was probably fine just an error on the computer but he couldn't get to it right now. Later that week while driving down a highway I heard a clunk sound and started getting an error message "check stabilitrak" followed by "check traction control". Those went to "service stabilitrak and traction control". The truck started running very rough, wheels felt as if they were going to fall off, etc..My husband checked the error codes and it said that we had a misfire on #4. He changed out everything he could, spark plugs, wires, wire housing, etc. No help. It was running so rough we had to have it towed to our mechanic...he had it for over a week and couldn't find the problem. He suggested we take it to a dealer. He felt it was something internal. We had it towed to another mechanic that was recommended by a friend. He found the problem and fixed the truck. Here is what he did that solved our problem: Changed the valve lifter (it was bent in position #4) since he had to go inside the engine he went ahead and replaced all four on that side. As a result of having to open the engine he also had to replace the head gasket, replaced the oil, replaced the anitfreeze, His diagnosis: Intake lifter on #4 cylinder collapsed. Cost: $1534.24. FYI...I drive a 2009 Chevy Avalanche. I hope this information helps all who are having the same or similar problems. Good luck.
Cathy Rose After a ton of research , I figured out that the active fuel management system is causing those lifter problems . I was using a quart of oil a week and fouling plugs left and right . I bought a module from amazon to shut off the AMF and haven't had a problem since . I would consider getting one to save that problem again .
Cathy I went through this same expierence with my Yukon it scared me to death.... One minor difference though; The day after picking my truck up, I pulled out of my neighborhood to go out of town (2 hours away) and the truck started dinging and flashing error codes at me again!! Two of the lifters on the other side had gotten stuck so it had to go back to the mechanic. :( Now......a year after all 8 lifters have been replaced and everything else as well.... the error codes have been coming up more and more as I'm driving or stopped at a stop light. I am seriously ready to scream!!
I really think this is a very rare problem to happen and hopefully the only one that arises in these engines…. You’re lucky this mechanic was able to detect the faulty lifter
im getting same thing but if im driving on highway crusing at 65-75 MPH and when light comes on itll drop down to 3 gear and stay there if i pull over to a hault it will shift down to 1st gear. no its not my transmission i just got it rebuild by the best shop in town and im over this s*** it happened to me a few times already while i was driving. and it goes away sometimes if i turn off truck completely and turn it back on. WEIRD
Car has same problem but light pops on at random at rpms stutter and car struggles to gain speed and feel like it hops. I dont even know where to begin looking
My 11 suburban does the same thing and since the last snow storm it won't shift out of 4w low.... so I really can't drive it on the road (over 40 mph) ..
Any insight is appreciated. I was driving down a heavily washboarded road dog about 50 meh when I simultaneously had ABS, Service Traction control, Service Stabilitrac, Service Trailer Brake Control Module. (factory). I also intermittently have the parking sensors disable from time to time then enable on their own. I had just ordered new tires and when I was dismounting the rear off the truck I noticed the rest brakes were down to about 10% life and fronts were 80% installed new rear pads hoping that would at least fix the ABS light. No broken wheel speed sensors/ wires, nothing, after everything I could think of, I'm still at a loss. Any ideas. 2009 Silverado K2500 HD 6.6L
I was having the same issue with my 13 sierra 1500 , man i hate it it was a misfired cylinder 4 had to change one of the lifter did the whole tune up first they nothing kept doing the same so i changed the deactivation solenoid then last thing had to replaced the oil pump because oil pressure fail after changing the oil pressure sensor , swear i was about to throw this truck in the garbage but finally got it fixed now everything in back to normal ,, it didn’t have nothing to do with the abs system ,, i also changed the valve covers
I have the same problem i have a 2010 Silverado 1500 LTZ and my lights come on when i hold my back for a period of time then traction control and abs comes on
I have a 2013 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 5.3L. The stabilitrak and traction control lights come on and off with the engine light blinking. Went by the auto store and had them run a diagnostic and it came up 3 misfires on Cylinder 1 and a ABS code that they had no idea what it meant. I replaced the plugs about a year ago and one side was fouled and to other were fine. I've got coils and wire coming to change them out but the ABS code has when wondering. Would like some guidance for this if you have some knowledge. Thanks
0441jab my 08 Silverado did this today, my service stabilizer and service traction control light came on and the truck feels like it is in limp mode. It does not wanna go past 45mph. Did you get yours fixed and what was it.
How's the truck now..? I got the same exact truck & this shit is killing me bro. Need to know what exactly it is, because I don't wanna buy all kinds of parts to replace to where only one needs to be replaced
I have the same problem with my 2012 Tahoe have you found a fix? two mechanics new tires 2 alignments and still no one can tell me whats wrong or how to fix it
2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT 5.3L V8 - Check engine light, stabilitrak light, and tire light all on. Check engine light blinks. The tire light came on after I got a flat and replaced with the spare tire the other day. Waiting on shop to get the new tire in. Check engine light came on before this at some point. After the tire light came on, stabilitrak light along with service traction control warning populated. Going to check for codes later today. Any advice is much appreciated.
Just recently had the issue while driving on ice and sleet. In addition, Reduced engine power came on and the motor died. A bit unnerving on the interstate with traffic.
I had a similar issue on my 2011 Chevy Silverado where occassionally, when driving, the traction control and stabiltrak lights would come on, and the tachometer would stop working, or sometimes the truck would be hard to start. No code was being thrown at first. I tried a few things but nothing worked. I did some other work to it where i changed the plug and wires, replaced the water pump and thermostat. During that job I disconnected the battery and the issue went away for two weeks then came back and threw a code. Turns out it was the crankshaft position sensor. I replaced that and no issues for the last 5 months. Part was about 50 bucks. Could be different for you, hook up an ob2 scanner and check if any codes then go from there. Hopefully this can help someone.
I'm having the exact same issues, only with my 2012. Tach stopped working and threw a po335 code for crankshaft sensor failure. I pulled the starter then pulled the crankshaft sensor. Still having issues with it.
Mine had the same problem I did the exact same thing and worked now I have the traction control light come on and the exact same time the abs light. Anybody that knows ?
2009 ! Had a vibration on the engin ! #7 coil ! Traction light came ! 5 minutes later !!!! Checked fuse n changed it !! 2 years ! Never came back on !! GOOD LUCK !
I took mine to the shop to replace the rear seal... and wen I was driving back home the traction control and stabilizer came in ... went back to the mecanic... and he told me IS THE MOTOR MOUNTS OR THE TPS, OR THE CATALIC CONVERTER, OR THE COMPUTER YOUR ENGINE IS GOING BAD, BUT U CAN CHANGE THE SPARG PLUGS AND WIRES IF THAT DOESN'T FIX IT, BRING IT BACK AND WE SE HOW MUCH IS GOING TO BE TO FIX IT... I replace the wires, spark plugs and still the same. And I'm not going back with that (mecanic ) she was good and now i got a big headache
I thought that I had this licked and now I don't know. Just ordered the Steering Wheel Position Sensor and SLS587 Stoplight Switch. If not, I'll have fun under the dash all cramped up, great times.
Best thing is but a ford or something before you’ll start hating yourself for not doing it sooner but in this case usually the dealer will remove the code or possibly you can use a obd2 scanner to remove code but most likely it’s gonna come back so best to get it fix
they same mess kept poppin up so i ended up putting in a 2in leveling kit because i had some mud grips on it and i had to get a front end alignment and that ended up fixing it. I hope this helps somebody
Mine is doing this and flashing "Service 4 Wheel Drive". Is a newer Sliverado too. Im so fed up with it. Thinking about trashing it and getting a Tundra instead. Smh...
I’m having the same issue in my 2011 Chevy Silverado 5.3L. A few months ago when it was extremely cold, the light and warning for traction and stabilitrak didn’t come up until I was curving on the road after taking an exit from the highway and all of a sudden the truck went into ABS mode. It scared the shit out of me and good thing there was no one behind me. After the ABS kicked in, the service traction control and stabilitrak lights came on and traction was turned off so I was able to continue on my way. I have a feeling it may be a speed sensor on the wheels or maybe the steering column but I haven’t had a chance to look at it. Anyone else with similar symptoms while out on the highway?
@carlos Sotelo, any news on the fixing? I literally had the same exact problem with how you described it, it was minus 7 degrees over here and I was heading to work when I curved on the road it turned on those two lights and it didn’t appear after a week or two again. Now every time I turn it on and I’m on the road 15 miles ahead those two lights turn on
Hey Juan. Yes I was able to fix the issue on my truck. I had to replace the steering wheel positioning sensor. This made sense as I started getting the warning as soon as I moved the steering wheel after starting the truck. Hope this helps. Good luck
Video is old but it could be Wheel Hub bearing beginning to fail. Keep driving like that the wheel bearing will fail brake light will engage and hopefully you stop in time
I have a 2011 Tahoe Hybrid, I have the same problem. Had it at the dealer, they change the oil sensor since the oil gauge was acting up and had the computer module installed and reprogrammed. Drove it 80 miles and back to square one with the triangle light on and the engine light one and the power at half power and the two codes StabiliTrak and service traction control and a message saying service brakes. I then watch a video that said to change the Brake Switch. it was $25 and i did. It still didnt help. Dont know what to do.
I just had the same problem on my way to work on a 2010 silverado 5.3 lt the engine light came on so the traction control came on but my idling it’s really rough the engine sakes a lil and makes a mocking sound
Actually to help you out everytime you see that message on the GM trucks use a scan tool. I had a similar issue on a Saturn it was giving out a code and I looked it up on RUclips and I end up figuring out it was low on engine oil. Filll it up at the safe mark. Problem solve. I seen in Camaro when the battery dies because the camaro starnded for days and you jump start it. It might give you also that message. Just simply let the car warm up. Turn it the engine off and start it up. This is my personal experience.
i also have the same problem with my 2011 silverado. dealership told they wanted $100 just to read the codes and diagnose the problem. so any chevy dealership should be able to atleast do that. im still doing my own research online 1st at the moment.
Hey Bro. I have a 2011 Silverado with the same issue, have you had any luck finding a fix? I'm not will to pay the dealer $100 to look at my truck and "might" have a solution. If I knew for a fact they could diagnose the problem I might be willing to pay the $100 bucks though, but it's a big gamble with the dealer and this problem.
The engine of My avalanche , 6.0 v8 with 169k miles is chacking and the light stabilytrack and traction control are on... I told that a mechanic and he said repair it cost more than $1.5k , if someone has idea what it could be..?? Maybe is a sensor or not...
I started smelling gasoline a week ago. Just today these lights came on and the truck doesn’t idle the same as it did before. I’ll do a follow up after I take it to the shop.
You resolve the problem? I have the same issue also bad aceleration and traction control off i already change the spark plugs whit the wires the injectors and the coil like 7 times and now my mechanical says is a electrical problem
Mine comes on when I’m driving on the freeway & bumpy roads.. the speedometer will drop down to 20 & then the lights “ service traction control, service stabilitrak, engine power reduced “ will come on... any suggestions?
Big Tee check your battery cables... I got rid of that truck & got a 2016 gmc & it started doing the same thing... so I changed the battery cables, & even changed the battery... did it once more & tightened the cables down because the bolt started coming loose... hasnt done it ever since
I have this same problem. Weird thing is, it doesn't come on in the morning, when the day temperature is cooler It does come on in the afternoon, when the day is warmer.
I have same problem right now. Cool mornings no problem. Turns out it is the steering angle sensor. Taking it in to be fixed. Thought it was tire speed sensor. It's not! I can even start when hot out and let it run no problem but if I turn the steering wheel just the slightest it will act up.
I've got that same issue with my 2011 Silverado right now. If temp is under 80 I don't get the traction/stabilitrac warning, but if it's over about 85 it comes on. Going to try replacing the brake switch. What was the fix with yours?
I have a 2011 Tahoe LT with 158k miles on it. I replaced both front hub assembly's the first week of June, so almost 3 months ago. After I filled up with gas I got in and started the truck. I got the stabitrak and ABS lights along with the service messages. I drove it straight to the dealership which was only a 1/2 mile away. They put it on the computer. They told me my left front speed sensor was malfunctioning and my right hub assembly was loose on the inside. I don't really believe them after reading these comments and other video comments. The first week of June I also replaced the "brake switch" under the steering wheel because my cruise control wasn't working. Does anyone else have any other things it may be?? Thanks y'all.
CRAIGER D I've done the same with my 2011 Silverado. Also the dash panel $300 and both battery cables. There is also the parking brake switch which was like $15. I still have a drain on my battery and this new Stabilitrac error as well which I'm guessing is the new drain. A fix would be great.
Must of the time it is a grounding issues my 2011 chevy suburban had it cleaned terminals and did some research on how to do a better ground and that fixed it. But if you have a reduced engine power that going to be your throttle body sensor and your throttle body might need cleaning. Clean first then replace sensor takes 15 min from cleaning and pulling back off to replace throttle body sensor
My 08 GMC Sierra started doing the same. I also found that my brake lights stay on because of a faulty brake pedal sensor. Also, I need to replace sway bar links so all of that may be it. Hopefully you got it fixed.
Me too! But I drive in snow so when the light kicks on after about two minutes of driving my steering turns to shit and it drives like a 2WD piece of crap. It’s obviously disabling the traction control as well
Your comment helped me so much. I just replaced my motor mount and once I turned my truck back on, my Stabilitrak and traction controls kept going off. In the process of removing the motor mount, I had to remove the steering bar for access. I know I hit it once and it spun the wheel and I guess I didn’t connect it right and the steering sensor was the culprit. Just disconnected the rod and spun the wheel back and it seems to be all good now.
Ami se me prendiron las mismas al cambiar amortiguadores en ningun lado me las pudieron arreglar investigando resulta q por la altura del tornillo del amortiguador lleban un sensor aparte de el del amortiguador por arriba del chasis se desconectaron por accidente y los reegrese quedo como nueva suerte
Disculpa amigo. recien compre una silverado y me marca temperatura de transmision 190℉ sube cuando estoy en Parking Y se empieza a calentar el motor. sabes Que temperatura es lo normal de la transmision cuanto marca la tuya?
I had the same issue with my 2011 Suburban. It was the sensor. I had it fixed for 140.00...that was earlier this year. It is happening again so I am assuming it is the sensor, but now when I drive my brake lights stay on.
Preston Cole No it stays on at all times . Ones you start the truck and start moving wheels and turning the steering wheel the traction turns on and stays like that
MrBosanacBIH the traction control module with freak out with any engine issue, all I did was put fuel stabilizer in it and it fixed the issue, fuel is so bad lately that could be your problem, mine light would turn on everytime I went from a stop and 1st to 2nd would shift hard.
Chinto R No the light is still there. After trying few things that people recommended and spend money but didn’t solve the problem I stopped trying. It really doesn’t effect anything other then looking at the service light on the dash.
I have a 2010 GMC Sierra, today the service traction control/stabilatrack, but also check engine light flashing, idles very rough, any ideas what can be? Also I haven't changed spark plugs or wires. Thanks.
Same and as I drive it comes on at the same place and ti.e every day lol 😆 I know when it's fixen to come on soon I get near a store boom comes on but if temperature is about 50 it wantcome on
Wow, after reading all the comments, I’m figuring that fixing this truck is going to be a freaking turkey shoot…. I’m starting with an idler arm and a new steering stabilizer shock since it doesn’t have one…. I’ll post more, maybe even the fix… if I can find it….
My 2011 Silverado does the same thing. Not all the time. I may drive 50 miles and while drive it does it. When i put the code reader on the truck the reader shows no codes to be found. Replaced the brake with and nothing changed. WASTE OF MONEY! Dealer won't sell only wheel speed sensor, says will sell wheel hub assembly for $550... Tired of wasting money when replacement parts are that expensive.. HELP!!!
I have the same problem as your describing on my 2011 Silverado. You can buy OEM sensors on Amazon, I found them on there yesterday, and I bought a OEM hub assembly on Amazon a few months back because my LF bearing went bad at 72000 miles. The dealer wanted $400 for the same part. I would welcome any feedback from you if you have learned anything about a fix for this frustrating issue. Hope this helps.
I have a 2012 chevy Silverado, and the door locks, seat belt tensioner, all the dash lights, trans would shift to 3rd gear and stay, loss of power. After wiggling the battery cable, everything went back to normal. I found a video that reports the same issue. Replaced the negative battery cable today and we will see what happens.
It's not when you start rolling, it's when you turn the steering wheel, I don't know why this causes the light to come on but mine is doing the same thing as well
If your TC/ABS lights are coming on when you turn the steering wheel it's a sensor on the steering column. There is a YT video on how to replace that sensor. It's not very simple though. I have the same lights coming on but not when I turn the wheel. Hope this helps.
Steering Wheel Position Sensor.... I had the same problem and replacing that did the trick on my 07 Yukon Denali. Sensor is about $75 on eBay. But I would get your truck scanned first because I had a bad wheel hub that kept tripping the abs and traction control indicators before the Steering Sensor.
My 11 Silverado TC/ABS lights were coming on with no other symptoms randomly not when I turned the wheel but mainly when I was stopped at a light or something like that. I bought a OEM brake light sensor switch for $10 on Amazon, it took 10 minutes to change (there is a video on YT on how its done) the Service TC/ST lights have not come back on since.

There are 3 things to look at your brake light switch, the abs system( expecially the wires) and your front wheel bearings. I have a jacked 2010 4x4 and that those lights let me know my wheel bearings are about to go. I also had a abs wire get pinched and was grounding out up front. Hope that helps
I have the same issue my alignment is off as well and it’s lifted any advice?
@@jimmysandoval9829 wheel speed sensor most likely or uneven tires I would I scan and c what codes first
I was having the same issue I replaced the spark plugs and wires problem solved thanks for the video
Guys, just disconnect the Negative Battery Cable, clean it with abrasive cloth, reconnect the cable Ensuring that it’s snug and tight, ( removal of the fender firewall brace may be necessary, just four bolts), and you are done. Also you could have a bad battery.
GM’s CanBus System requires 12 volts to function properly. The sound of your engine should indicate when your car/ truck is not getting enough voltage.
I know this is an old video. But if you have this problem check your codes. U0101 is a transmission control module failure. It’s $500-600 to replace and have flashed. Good news is that it’s covered under the Federal Emissions Act for 8 years or 80,000 miles. A lot of dealerships don’t even know this. Hope this helps someone out.
09 silverado experiencing
Stabilitrack and service trailer brake...
Any suggestions
I am having this problem, what’s was the cause of the that light
I re did a ground
I changed the two abs wheel sensors
I cleaned my air system and still the same
Hi .Could you share how did you fix this?
Your Service Stabilitrak error did not illuminate until you had turned your steering wheel At the 1:12 mark. This tells me that it's your steering wheel position sensor. I had performed many tests eliminating everything that wasn't the issue. This SAS (Steering Wheel Angle Sensor) was my problem until I had replaced this part.
As a example, is it like driving with a wheel alignment problem?"
Mine is doing the same thing took the bed off to have body work done and noticed the wires for the abs had broke I agree with couch audio check abs wires and wheel bearings
Does warranty cover?
My 2007 Chevrolet Silverado was doing the same thing I changed the throttle body and that fixed my problem.
You can get the throttle body off eBay for $45.89
Okay thanks will
Look into that
Check the spark plug wires. Look inside the wires. One of my wires was burnt. Causing the issues.
I'm starting to have this problem too! I'm checking RUclips for a solution.
Did u check brake fluid my came on with the brake light put fluid no more lights
I reprogram my throttle body on my 2010 camaro v6 bc of the check engine light. Now I get a stabilizer alert, now don’t know what to do...
I had the same problem with my 07 Tahoe 5.3L, I would drive around for a while and those lights would come on, say service TC and Stabilitrak, then cut power and go into limp mode. The repair was pretty simple I just bought a new Throttle Position Sensor (~$50) and installed it at home and now it's good as new.
Chris Elston please help me I have the same tahoe and when that light come on.While Im driving I hit the gas and the car won't move.I just replace the throttle peal today .Still doing the same helpp
Blackhead Howard Well whenever I would step on the gas pedal it would still move, just very slowly. You might have a different problem than I do... I bought
Blackhead Howard a blue driver obd2 scanner (~$99) and it helped me find my problem
Chris Elston got the struts replaced on my 07 Tahoe. The Next day the TC and ABS lights came on. Any ideas
they likely had to disconnect the ABS sensor at the wheel(s) to install the struts and maybe forgot to plug one or more back in. Should be visible behind wheel in the wheel-well.

I have the same problem with mine when my car would sit and idle for a few minutes when the weather with cold. I would have to disconnect my battery to get my truck to run right again. After disconnecting the battery the check engine light would stay on for a little while but it would eventually go out as well
MrBosanacBIH not sure if u got that fixed yet but i just bought the same truck and it is doing the same thing. What i noticed is it comes on as soon as i turn the wheel not when it is rolling. I noticed that yours is doing the same per your video, fyi. I looked it up and it is a sensor on your steering column by your knees. RUclips it. Have a gooder :)
check your intake make sure all hosses are pluged in (airlines)
2011 tahoe - replaced with bigger battery cables. Been good since. Did it 6 yrs ago. Factory cables have bad crimp and has a service bulletin from chevy about it.
Having the same problem on my 2010 avalanche hit new rear struts got back in the car and seen the triangle brakes warning and rear stabilitrack off also I just seen my brake fluid is short of full can anyone help me?
Hi sir.. ihave toyota avalon 2012.. There are no any lights or symbols in the dashboard board, but suddenly while driving the check engine and trc off lights turn on, and the traction control shows up also but disappears after 5 seconds then come back again , icant drive the car with this situation. So can you help me with this issue... Thanks
2013 Silverado same problem.
Codes supposedly shows that i need to replace MAF & of ABS Sensors.
On the 2011 Silverado, I have the same issue. It is a sensor that is located in the steering column. There are 5 total, 1 on each tire and the 1 on the steering column. I was quoted $385 from my local Chevy Dealer.
Yea $385 to fix a problem that they created when they designed this piece of crap. In my SUV if I wait about 1-2 min after starting it won't come on.
I have the same problem..chevy express 2017..the dealer said its an old code...i don think so..
Okay so my 2011 chevy avalanche LTZ rear left tire had a nail and so we went to a shop to patch it cuz the stabilizer and break light went on. When they patched it it went off then a week later it's back on again. Just took it in to the same shop and they cleared it and right when I reached home the damn lights came back on. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE.
Hi, I feel your pain. I had the same problem. It all started with a "Low oil pressure" signal that went to a "turn off engine now" message. I did, let the truck cool down and restarted. kept getting same message, checked oil and it was fine. Went to a mechanic who said it was probably fine just an error on the computer but he couldn't get to it right now. Later that week while driving down a highway I heard a clunk sound and started getting an error message "check stabilitrak" followed by "check traction control". Those went to "service stabilitrak and traction control". The truck started running very rough, wheels felt as if they were going to fall off, etc..My husband checked the error codes and it said that we had a misfire on #4. He changed out everything he could, spark plugs, wires, wire housing, etc. No help. It was running so rough we had to have it towed to our mechanic...he had it for over a week and couldn't find the problem. He suggested we take it to a dealer. He felt it was something internal. We had it towed to another mechanic that was recommended by a friend. He found the problem and fixed the truck. Here is what he did that solved our problem:
Changed the valve lifter (it was bent in position #4) since he had to go inside the engine he went ahead and replaced all four on that side. As a result of having to open the engine he also had to replace the head gasket, replaced the oil, replaced the anitfreeze,
His diagnosis: Intake lifter on #4 cylinder collapsed.
Cost: $1534.24. FYI...I drive a 2009 Chevy Avalanche. I hope this information helps all who are having the same or similar problems. Good luck.
Cathy Rose After a ton of research , I figured out that the active fuel management system is causing those lifter problems . I was using a quart of oil a week and fouling plugs left and right . I bought a module from amazon to shut off the AMF and haven't had a problem since . I would consider getting one to save that problem again .
Kevin Stebleton I need that same module to shut down my AFM system, it sucks. Do you have a link for ur purchase?
Cathy I went through this same expierence with my Yukon it scared me to death....
One minor difference though; The day after picking my truck up, I pulled out of my neighborhood to go out of town (2 hours away) and the truck started dinging and flashing error codes at me again!! Two of the lifters on the other side had gotten stuck so it had to go back to the mechanic. :(
Now......a year after all 8 lifters have been replaced and everything else as well.... the error codes have been coming up more and more as I'm driving or stopped at a stop light. I am seriously ready to scream!!
Kevin Stebleton which module did you buy?
I really think this is a very rare problem to happen and hopefully the only one that arises in these engines…. You’re lucky this mechanic was able to detect the faulty lifter
im getting same thing but if im driving on highway crusing at 65-75 MPH and when light comes on itll drop down to 3 gear and stay there if i pull over to a hault it will shift down to 1st gear. no its not my transmission i just got it rebuild by the best shop in town and im over this s*** it happened to me a few times already while i was driving. and it goes away sometimes if i turn off truck completely and turn it back on. WEIRD
my 07 yukon have the same problem 2yrs ago, change the brake pedal switch and fix the problem, check your brake lights!
Brake pedal? Really?
Mario Vazquez yup. Some odd ball shit. 3 different times on me. I even had to change my M.A.P sensor.
Car has same problem but light pops on at random at rpms stutter and car struggles to gain speed and feel like it hops. I dont even know where to begin looking
My 11 suburban does the same thing and since the last snow storm it won't shift out of 4w low.... so I really can't drive it on the road (over 40 mph) ..
Any insight is appreciated. I was driving down a heavily washboarded road dog about 50 meh when I simultaneously had ABS, Service Traction control, Service Stabilitrac, Service Trailer Brake Control Module. (factory). I also intermittently have the parking sensors disable from time to time then enable on their own. I had just ordered new tires and when I was dismounting the rear off the truck I noticed the rest brakes were down to about 10% life and fronts were 80% installed new rear pads hoping that would at least fix the ABS light. No broken wheel speed sensors/ wires, nothing, after everything I could think of, I'm still at a loss. Any ideas. 2009 Silverado K2500 HD 6.6L
Try this ruclips.net/video/QE2EfA_DHCs/видео.html
With all those sensors acting up it will prolly be grounding related
Bad front wheel hubs
I got service traction control and abs light and my cruise control didn't work,. Changed brake switch and that fixed the problem
Could be the brake sensor causimg this
I was having the same issue with my 13 sierra 1500 , man i hate it it was a misfired cylinder 4 had to change one of the lifter did the whole tune up first they nothing kept doing the same so i changed the deactivation solenoid then last thing had to replaced the oil pump because oil pressure fail after changing the oil pressure sensor , swear i was about to throw this truck in the garbage but finally got it fixed now everything in back to normal ,, it didn’t have nothing to do with the abs system ,, i also changed the valve covers
Do you have a slight rough idle bc I do! mine is making the same thing??
Mine is right idle also. Any solutions would be great
I have the same problem i have a 2010 Silverado 1500 LTZ and my lights come on when i hold my back for a period of time then traction control and abs comes on
I was having same problem it was the engen fuel injector dirty wat's they canntion I don't know really
I have a 2013 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 5.3L. The stabilitrak and traction control lights come on and off with the engine light blinking. Went by the auto store and had them run a diagnostic and it came up 3 misfires on Cylinder 1 and a ABS code that they had no idea what it meant. I replaced the plugs about a year ago and one side was fouled and to other were fine. I've got coils and wire coming to change them out but the ABS code has when wondering. Would like some guidance for this if you have some knowledge. Thanks
0441jab my 08 Silverado did this today, my service stabilizer and service traction control light came on and the truck feels like it is in limp mode. It does not wanna go past 45mph. Did you get yours fixed and what was it.
How's the truck now..?
I got the same exact truck & this shit is killing me bro.
Need to know what exactly it is, because I don't wanna buy all kinds of parts to replace to where only one needs to be replaced
@@Apphus144 did you get it figured out?
@@grjones520 yeah, replaced the throttle body & maf airflow sensor
Check your brake fluid level if it's low the sensor will get service brake message
I have the same problem with my 2012 Tahoe have you found a fix? two mechanics new tires 2 alignments and still no one can tell me whats wrong or how to fix it
Did you get it fixed ??
2011 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT 5.3L V8 - Check engine light, stabilitrak light, and tire light all on. Check engine light blinks. The tire light came on after I got a flat and replaced with the spare tire the other day. Waiting on shop to get the new tire in. Check engine light came on before this at some point. After the tire light came on, stabilitrak light along with service traction control warning populated. Going to check for codes later today. Any advice is much appreciated.
I got the same problem but my truck don’t le me change the shift looks like is looked. Any one got the that problem?
Just recently had the issue while driving on ice and sleet. In addition, Reduced engine power came on and the motor died. A bit unnerving on the interstate with traffic.
Mine is doing this now
I had a similar issue on my 2011 Chevy Silverado where occassionally, when driving, the traction control and stabiltrak lights would come on, and the tachometer would stop working, or sometimes the truck would be hard to start. No code was being thrown at first. I tried a few things but nothing worked. I did some other work to it where i changed the plug and wires, replaced the water pump and thermostat. During that job I disconnected the battery and the issue went away for two weeks then came back and threw a code. Turns out it was the crankshaft position sensor. I replaced that and no issues for the last 5 months. Part was about 50 bucks. Could be different for you, hook up an ob2 scanner and check if any codes then go from there. Hopefully this can help someone.
I'm having the exact same issues, only with my 2012. Tach stopped working and threw a po335 code for crankshaft sensor failure. I pulled the starter then pulled the crankshaft sensor. Still having issues with it.
Mine had the same problem I did the exact same thing and worked now I have the traction control light come on and the exact same time the abs light. Anybody that knows ?
@@raulperes3162 any luck fixing your problem?
I just started having the same issue. I have a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.8L
Same here
2009 ! Had a vibration on the engin ! #7 coil ! Traction light came ! 5 minutes later !!!! Checked fuse n changed it !! 2 years ! Never came back on !! GOOD LUCK !
It's the wheel speed sensor Scana it'll tell you what size bad
What can I do my abs and stabilitrack turn on and i cant put it in reverse i need help
Brake sensor
i had traction control and brake light on. checked the brake fluid and i had half. filled it up to max and all lights took off 🙏
I took mine to the shop to replace the rear seal... and wen I was driving back home the traction control and stabilizer came in ... went back to the mecanic... and he told me IS THE MOTOR MOUNTS OR THE TPS, OR THE CATALIC CONVERTER, OR THE COMPUTER YOUR ENGINE IS GOING BAD, BUT U CAN CHANGE THE SPARG PLUGS AND WIRES IF THAT DOESN'T FIX IT, BRING IT BACK AND WE SE HOW MUCH IS GOING TO BE TO FIX IT... I replace the wires, spark plugs and still the same. And I'm not going back with that (mecanic ) she was good and now i got a big headache
I thought that I had this licked and now I don't know. Just ordered the Steering Wheel Position Sensor and SLS587 Stoplight Switch. If not, I'll have fun under the dash all cramped up, great times.
Best thing is but a ford or something before you’ll start hating yourself for not doing it sooner but in this case usually the dealer will remove the code or possibly you can use a obd2 scanner to remove code but most likely it’s gonna come back so best to get it fix
Have a 2013 Tahoe same issue.....its a steering wheel sensor
they same mess kept poppin up so i ended up putting in a 2in leveling kit because i had some mud grips on it and i had to get a front end alignment and that ended up fixing it. I hope this helps somebody
Will be trying a new wheel bearing and then an alignment.
Mine is doing this and flashing "Service 4 Wheel Drive". Is a newer Sliverado too. Im so fed up with it. Thinking about trashing it and getting a Tundra instead. Smh...
My son has a Tundra, set of New problems.
It's the Steering Wheel Position Sensor. Look it up
Chevy Stabilitrak and Ford Advancetrac - systems designed to extract money from your bill fold.
Jajajaja correctly jajaja
Truth!
I’m having the same issue in my 2011 Chevy Silverado 5.3L. A few months ago when it was extremely cold, the light and warning for traction and stabilitrak didn’t come up until I was curving on the road after taking an exit from the highway and all of a sudden the truck went into ABS mode. It scared the shit out of me and good thing there was no one behind me. After the ABS kicked in, the service traction control and stabilitrak lights came on and traction was turned off so I was able to continue on my way. I have a feeling it may be a speed sensor on the wheels or maybe the steering column but I haven’t had a chance to look at it. Anyone else with similar symptoms while out on the highway?
@carlos Sotelo, any news on the fixing? I literally had the same exact problem with how you described it, it was minus 7 degrees over here and I was heading to work when I curved on the road it turned on those two lights and it didn’t appear after a week or two again. Now every time I turn it on and I’m on the road 15 miles ahead those two lights turn on
Hey Juan. Yes I was able to fix the issue on my truck. I had to replace the steering wheel positioning sensor. This made sense as I started getting the warning as soon as I moved the steering wheel after starting the truck. Hope this helps. Good luck
Video is old but it could be Wheel Hub bearing beginning to fail. Keep driving like that the wheel bearing will fail brake light will engage and hopefully you stop in time
Steering Position sensor and R&R Steering wheel sensor are listed on my bill. It defenately fixed it $180 total parts n labor 2012 Silverado LTZ
Cyndi Carlson have you had any issues with it since you had those parts replaced?
What Is a R&R Steering wheel Sensor
@@creaje5 i beloved right rear
Believe...lol
I have a 2011 Tahoe Hybrid, I have the same problem. Had it at the dealer, they change the oil sensor since the oil gauge was acting up and had the computer module installed and reprogrammed. Drove it 80 miles and back to square one with the triangle light on and the engine light one and the power at half power and the two codes StabiliTrak and service traction control and a message saying service brakes. I then watch a video that said to change the Brake Switch. it was $25 and i did. It still didnt help. Dont know what to do.
I just had the same problem on my way to work on a 2010 silverado 5.3 lt the engine light came on so the traction control came on but my idling it’s really rough the engine sakes a lil and makes a mocking sound
Papus the husky J.h did you fix it? Or what they tell you what it is?
Jorge Aldama i found out it was the cam so i order one still working on it
Si pudieras ayudarme con la solución tengo el mismo problema
Pudiste arreglar tu problema?
It’s just a loose connection I put a shim over the connector haven’t had any problems since
which connector?
I had the same problem check your spark plugs, high miles
Actually to help you out everytime you see that message on the GM trucks use a scan tool. I had a similar issue on a Saturn it was giving out a code and I looked it up on RUclips and I end up figuring out it was low on engine oil. Filll it up at the safe mark. Problem solve. I seen in Camaro when the battery dies because the camaro starnded for days and you jump start it. It might give you also that message. Just simply let the car warm up. Turn it the engine off and start it up. This is my personal experience.
I fixed mine with an accelerator pedal sensor same issue on my 2008 escalade.
i also have the same problem with my 2011 silverado. dealership told they wanted $100 just to read the codes and diagnose the problem. so any chevy dealership should be able to atleast do that. im still doing my own research online 1st at the moment.
Hey Bro. I have a 2011 Silverado with the same issue, have you had any luck finding a fix? I'm not will to pay the dealer $100 to look at my truck and "might" have a solution. If I knew for a fact they could diagnose the problem I might be willing to pay the $100 bucks though, but it's a big gamble with the dealer and this problem.
The engine of My avalanche , 6.0 v8 with 169k miles is chacking and the light stabilytrack and traction control are on... I told that a mechanic and he said repair it cost more than $1.5k , if someone has idea what it could be..?? Maybe is a sensor or not...
I am prolly a day late and a dollar short but here is what clear that up most of the time ruclips.net/video/QE2EfA_DHCs/видео.html
happen to me and first i check brake oil found it low , add oil and everything ok
any luck yet?
Has anyone gotten a solution?!
Tune up but it’s started happening again a month later
I started smelling gasoline a week ago. Just today these lights came on and the truck doesn’t idle the same as it did before. I’ll do a follow up after I take it to the shop.
You resolve the problem? I have the same issue also bad aceleration and traction control off i already change the spark plugs whit the wires the injectors and the coil like 7 times and now my mechanical says is a electrical problem
Mine comes on when I’m driving on the freeway & bumpy roads.. the speedometer will drop down to 20 & then the lights “ service traction control, service stabilitrak, engine power reduced “ will come on... any suggestions?
Check your ground wire
Checa los cables, está un cable suelto o está un cable roto..
Have you had any updates that you can provide what was the problem? I'm having the same exact issue now.
Big Tee check your battery cables... I got rid of that truck & got a 2016 gmc & it started doing the same thing... so I changed the battery cables, & even changed the battery... did it once more & tightened the cables down because the bolt started coming loose... hasnt done it ever since
One of your wheel sensors is not working
i just change out my BLS about a month ago to fix my crusie control.... now i have this same problem with this traction control and stabilitrak....
at the sametime that the traction control and stabilitrak lights come on my RPM's won't move..
I have this same problem. Weird thing is, it doesn't come on in the morning, when the day temperature is cooler It does come on in the afternoon, when the day is warmer.
I have same problem right now. Cool mornings no problem. Turns out it is the steering angle sensor. Taking it in to be fixed. Thought it was tire speed sensor. It's not! I can even start when hot out and let it run no problem but if I turn the steering wheel just the slightest it will act up.
I've got that same issue with my 2011 Silverado right now. If temp is under 80 I don't get the traction/stabilitrac warning, but if it's over about 85 it comes on. Going to try replacing the brake switch. What was the fix with yours?
I have a 2011 Tahoe LT with 158k miles on it. I replaced both front hub assembly's the first week of June, so almost 3 months ago. After I filled up with gas I got in and started the truck. I got the stabitrak and ABS lights along with the service messages. I drove it straight to the dealership which was only a 1/2 mile away. They put it on the computer. They told me my left front speed sensor was malfunctioning and my right hub assembly was loose on the inside. I don't really believe them after reading these comments and other video comments. The first week of June I also replaced the "brake switch" under the steering wheel because my cruise control wasn't working.
Does anyone else have any other things it may be??
Thanks y'all.
CRAIGER D I've done the same with my 2011 Silverado. Also the dash panel $300 and both battery cables. There is also the parking brake switch which was like $15. I still have a drain on my battery and this new Stabilitrac error as well which I'm guessing is the new drain. A fix would be great.
CRAIGER D have you found any fix for this problem?
Have you found a solution? Mine comes on after a while on the road, and sometimes there is vibration or knocking before it comes on.
Brake switch on your brake pedal. $20 easy fix! Thank me later
@@jdabbs23 found it was more like a sympton to a bigger problem with brakes - brake fluid contaminated!
Have you seen the video by J Gary, he changed a sensor on the brake pedal and said it was a $25 part.
Same problem changed that part it did NOT fix my truck but might fix others
@@christopherfoulk9931 same here but also after fixng a part like that how do u reset codes only scanner?
Must of the time it is a grounding issues my 2011 chevy suburban had it cleaned terminals and did some research on how to do a better ground and that fixed it. But if you have a reduced engine power that going to be your throttle body sensor and your throttle body might need cleaning. Clean first then replace sensor takes 15 min from cleaning and pulling back off to replace throttle body sensor
I had the same problem on my yukon denali 2007 and changed the steering wheel position sensor and i got it fixed
My 08 GMC Sierra started doing the same. I also found that my brake lights stay on because of a faulty brake pedal sensor. Also, I need to replace sway bar links so all of that may be it. Hopefully you got it fixed.
You fixed?
@@DavidHernandez-ue4fz I don’t have the truck anymore but it ended up being low brake fluid.
Me too! But I drive in snow so when the light kicks on after about two minutes of driving my steering turns to shit and it drives like a 2WD piece of crap. It’s obviously disabling the traction control as well
U figure it out i got same problem on my 11
was happening to me and i found out what it was . wheel was straight but it had a -180 offset. had to set it to 0. and hasnt turned on since
What do you mean by -180 offset? As in an alignment?
Your comment helped me so much. I just replaced my motor mount and once I turned my truck back on, my Stabilitrak and traction controls kept going off.
In the process of removing the motor mount, I had to remove the steering bar for access. I know I hit it once and it spun the wheel and I guess I didn’t connect it right and the steering sensor was the culprit. Just disconnected the rod and spun the wheel back and it seems to be all good now.
I had this same problem with my 2011 Impala SS. Fuel pedal sensor
Did the fuel pedal sensor fix it
YOU NEED A STEERING POSITION OR STEERING ANGLE SENSOR
Ami se me prendiron las mismas al cambiar amortiguadores en ningun lado me las pudieron arreglar investigando resulta q por la altura del tornillo del amortiguador lleban un sensor aparte de el del amortiguador por arriba del chasis se desconectaron por accidente y los reegrese quedo como nueva suerte
Gamez 10 tengo el mismo problema
Disculpa amigo. recien compre una silverado y me marca temperatura de transmision 190℉ sube cuando estoy en Parking Y se empieza a calentar el motor.
sabes Que temperatura es lo normal de la transmision cuanto marca la tuya?
Luis LezoD'KEML yo tuve una 2009 4.8 y casi siempre subía ala temperatura cuando estaba estacionado no a lo rojo pero casi a 3/4
I had the same issue with my 2011 Suburban. It was the sensor. I had it fixed for 140.00...that was earlier this year. It is happening again so I am assuming it is the sensor, but now when I drive my brake lights stay on.
what sensor was it?
Once you start moving faster does it go away?
Preston Cole No it stays on at all times . Ones you start the truck and start moving wheels and turning the steering wheel the traction turns on and stays like that
MrBosanacBIH oh ok mine was doing the same thing but it would turn on and off. What’s the code on the check engine light
MrBosanacBIH the traction control module with freak out with any engine issue, all I did was put fuel stabilizer in it and it fixed the issue, fuel is so bad lately that could be your problem, mine light would turn on everytime I went from a stop and 1st to 2nd would shift hard.
Did you fix this problem? If you did, how?
Chinto R No the light is still there. After trying few things that people recommended and spend money but didn’t solve the problem I stopped trying. It really doesn’t effect anything other then looking at the service light on the dash.
Tengo ese mismo problema en una silverado 2010 quien me recomienda que debo xe hacer
Ya lo solusiono amigo?
Me pasa lo mismo a mi camioneta apenas oy le sucedió que puedo aser?

-anthony 35 thank you.
-HoustonRocket281 YES it did, cleaned throttle body, replaced spark plugs and wires. Problem fixed.
Did it light up as soon you trun it on?
This happens to me ONLY in cold weather. Anyone have it happen when it's warm?
Same and as I drive it comes on at the same place and ti.e every day lol 😆 I know when it's fixen to come on soon I get near a store boom comes on but if temperature is about 50 it wantcome on
Wow, after reading all the comments, I’m figuring that fixing this truck is going to be a freaking turkey shoot…. I’m starting with an idler arm and a new steering stabilizer shock since it doesn’t have one…. I’ll post more, maybe even the fix… if I can find it….
My 2011 Silverado does the same thing. Not all the time. I may drive 50 miles and while drive it does it. When i put the code reader on the truck the reader shows no codes to be found. Replaced the brake with and nothing changed. WASTE OF MONEY! Dealer won't sell only wheel speed sensor, says will sell wheel hub assembly for $550... Tired of wasting money when replacement parts are that expensive.. HELP!!!
I have the same problem as your describing on my 2011 Silverado. You can buy OEM sensors on Amazon, I found them on there yesterday, and I bought a OEM hub assembly on Amazon a few months back because my LF bearing went bad at 72000 miles. The dealer wanted $400 for the same part. I would welcome any feedback from you if you have learned anything about a fix for this frustrating issue. Hope this helps.
I have a 2012 chevy Silverado, and the door locks, seat belt tensioner, all the dash lights, trans would shift to 3rd gear and stay, loss of power. After wiggling the battery cable, everything went back to normal. I found a video that reports the same issue. Replaced the negative battery cable today and we will see what happens.
Español??
It's not when you start rolling, it's when you turn the steering wheel, I don't know why this causes the light to come on but mine is doing the same thing as well
If your TC/ABS lights are coming on when you turn the steering wheel it's a sensor on the steering column. There is a YT video on how to replace that sensor. It's not very simple though. I have the same lights coming on but not when I turn the wheel. Hope this helps.
Steering Wheel Position Sensor.... I had the same problem and replacing that did the trick on my 07 Yukon Denali. Sensor is about $75 on eBay.
But I would get your truck scanned first because I had a bad wheel hub that kept tripping the abs and traction control indicators before the Steering Sensor.
My 11 Silverado TC/ABS lights were coming on with no other symptoms randomly not when I turned the wheel but mainly when I was stopped at a light or something like that. I bought a OEM brake light sensor switch for $10 on Amazon, it took 10 minutes to change (there is a video on YT on how its done) the Service TC/ST lights have not come back on since.
my 08 impala traction control is driving Me nuts tired of it coming on its znoying
steering wheel position sensor. if turn on when you move the steering wheel.
