  • Stabilitrak problems
    So in this video I had a 2008 GMC Sierra and will also be the same as the Chevy Silverado My stability track light was on and I found out that my brake lights were staying on too long. So it would cause the Stabilitrak Light to come on in the dash. And the cruise control would not work This video is more of an explanation on what you’re looking for and how to change the brake pedal switch it’s a pretty simple straightforward repair if you get your hand underneath there and wiggle it in your brake lights go on and off, (Because they were staying on all the time) this is probably your problem I apologize I could not hold the phone and make a video of me removing the component but I think my explanation is ok . I hope it helps you out . Have an excellent day and don’t be the next of them be the first you!!!

    One wire on the mass airflow sensors plug was damaged on my 2010 Silverado. This was dangerous due to the fact that it completely disabled traction control and also my truck has the g80 locker that automatically locks . So let’s say it’s wet out and I’m accelerating on a interstate ramp. The truck will loose control because gm wanted to save money and use a outdated automatic locking diff instead of a selectable locker. Then found out oh shit this isn’t the safest thing so now let’s dump millions into developing a traction control system that keeps this from happening. And they still use it today.

    Thanks for the video Clay. I didn't complete the video and the brake pedal sensor was not the issue although it led me to my specific issue. Since I went to check the brake lights it led me to my issue. My issues were first start up of the morning the service stabilitrack would come on after about 500' out of the driveway and stay on until I turn the van off, Oh (2012 express 2500) and not any other times. I had this issue for about the last month. I also noticed in this time my right turn signal had an increased rate of operation. I found upon checking the brake lights that my rear left turn signal was out. Replaced and solved my issue.

      My mom just came to me with this same problem,...
      STABILITRAK
      I told her it sounds like traction control or maybe a differential problem..
      Took my camera phone under her car looking for worn extremely rusty cracked or broken problems around the wheels
      Her brake fluid was low
      We filled it before checking under the SUV
      I totally know the video we just watched has to with his brakes, the brake pedal doesn't have enough pressure in the brake lines I think it was my old jeep with was a master cylinder problem years ago THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAYED ON EVEN WHEN PARKED...
      it might have air in it or leaking...
      but with my mom's Chevy Suburban
      I looked around underneath of it around the front wheels and a bolt was totally broke underneath
      The bushing and bolt broke off,
      It appeared supposed to be connected to the frame underneath closest to the ground..
      I don't know what she ran over...
      But I said that's probably why..And told her to show the video to the mechanic..
      The next day, a GM mechanic (GOODYEAR MECHANIC) said that was probably why the brakes squealed,
      she had been bringing it in her car asking why her brakes squealed at least twice before he said brake dust, today he said because the bolt was broken and it swayed so much, that pressure like the car leaning so much caused the brakes to loose fluid and also SQUEAL...
      AND HE CHARGED TO PUT IN NEW STABILITRAK SENSOR
      Yes he said he did put in a new sensor..
      I SAID WHAT A NON WORKING BROKE SENSOR
      So today I started making a TH-cam video since he charged to fix it and charged for a " new sensor"
      I told my mom, I didn't think anything was wrong with her old sensor,
      since that sensor let her know there was a serious problem, it even shut off her car when going down a hill with a curve at the buttom...
      So I guess the GM GOODYEAR mechanic just reset the sensor
      THEY JUST TELL THE COMPUTER TO IGNORE THE PROBLEM..
      it's like that it even computer systems, they will run with a problem not being repaired at all, they just tell it to ignore that problem,
      IT MIGHT COME BACK ON LATER...
      But nothing appeared repaired
      It was fall break she had been driving the kids around WINTER IS COMING AND WELL HE CHARGED TO FIX IT
      YET DID NOT
      so I'm going to be posting a video about it in maybe a week,
      I hope the video can be about getting her money back

      @dave not the 2nd I have no idea about big O , Well first off there is a dozen different things with your description please do not make any TH-cam videos you were absolutely incorrect they cannot tell the computer to ignore something without paying $100 and having a tech to or maybe like an HP tuner . Or several other types of scanning devices that allow you to reprogram the ECM port to do that. (I will point out they can clear codes but they will come back within fivekey cycles) this is why I ask you not to make any TH-cam videos because of what you said.
      I’m not trying to sound like a jerk. And if you would’ve sent me this message privately I would pretty much say the same thing and I would describe you what is wrong with all of your statements.
      I will however take in consideration that you are correct on a couple of different things but for the most part some of your statements make no sense.
      If you do choose to make a TH-cam video, you do sound like the type of person that may inform yourself on both sides of the matter before doing that. Most mechanics make determinations based off of what the customer is telling them. And what the customer is willing to pay. If a customer walks into a store and says he can you take a look at my vehicle I’m happy to pay what it cost. More than likely they will do a thorough job
      If a customer comes in and ask how much does it cost to take a look at my vehicle. Most shops are going to see an hours worth of labor time . and they may find several things wrong and then tell the customer from the most important to the least important things to repair first. (In the situation they’re trying to be compassionate about the customers pocketbook not because they don’t want to do the work they just want their prices to be reasonable )
      I am definitely not trying to throw shade at you. And I recommend you take your vehicle to another shop

    Thanks for the video but I've got a 2009 Buick Lacrosse 3.8L and for over a year my traction control and ABS lights have been on so they haven't been working. My friend (who's a mechanic) and I have been trying to figure out what is going on and replacing parts. The codes are C0090 & C0095. There was another code for the front left speed sensor and we took care of that with a new bearing. We also installed a new bearing on the right rear but that didn't fix it. While replacing that bearing he noticed the wires going into the plug from the loom was bad (not enough to splice) so I got a new loom that takes care of both rear wheels. As before that didn't clear the codes. We both decided to more research so I went home, lights on. When I got home I parked the car and then got the idea to start and see if the lights were on, they weren't. I went down the driveway (icy) and they ABS worked great and so did the traction control. But by the time I got parked back in the garage they were back on. He thinks since the ABS Control Module hasn't been working for so long the solenoid for that wheel may be stuck. What do you think? And any idea how to loosen it so it works? I've also read online that flushing the brake lines and putting in new brake fluid may work, again what do you think?

    Can the wheel speed sensor cause those dash lights to come on also. My a.b.s would kick in almost every time I stop so I pulled the a.b.s fuse and it still did it and now those lights are on. ( Fuse is back in)

    • @sharpcarco
      @sharpcarco  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Absolutely.... ABS can cause that in the past I found that that’s either a broken reluctor ring or a faulty ABS control module. Obviously I can’t say for certain and your situation because I’m not there and this is a text message but I would look at them two things because more than likely they are the culprit
      First thing you would do is watch on a live scanner all four wheels and see which one is going slower or faster than the other ones.
      Also having the wrong size tires will cause this problem as well they all must be the same size and the same make
      Because tires are just like jeans wranglers fit different than Levi’s etc. etc.

    Thanks for the great video Clay. It really sheds some light on my problems with my 2008 Chev. Equinox. I plug in my Actron scan tool and never see any fault codes when the stabilitrac light comes on. Do you think this brake light switch could be my problem also? What about the steering wheel sensor, as I have also seen video's about Chevy having problems with these also? Thanks for any help you can provide Clay. Have a good one.

      That’s a difficult question to answer you probably have a misfire which turned on the stability track light and that misfire is pretty serious because they can clog up the catalytic converter‘s, more than likely you have a collapsed lifter it’s very common for the AFM engines. Obviously you haven’t giving me that much information but 90% of the time in the Chevy engine 2007 or newer it either needs a spark plug or it needs new lifters. However there is a way to bypass the AFM system but the lifter cannot be collapsed.

      The possibility that comes to mind right away is that do you have a slow wheel speed sensor but I could not be for sure without hooking it up to a scanner. Meaning at slower movement the four sensors.
      One of them is towing the computer a different speed then the other ones

    I have a Captiva sport 2009 that's given me this problem..
    I had a bad Rear Left-wheel sensor and tought this was my problem...
    I replaced all 4 sensors with bearing and still have the same problem with the Stabiliti Traction Control, ABS and parking-BRAKE ligth.

    I have a 2011 Buick Regal. Oddly, about the only time this Stabilitrak warning appears on my screen is when I'm leaving our local Walmart. There is about a 2 block drive from the parking area to the main road, with a stop sign in between. The warning goes off about the same place every time, yet rarely anywhere else. I will see if it goes off right after I take off from the stop sign. If so, I will stop the car and then see if the break lights are still on. If so, perhaps a little WD40 could help the problem?

    My mom just came to me with this same problem,...
    STABILITRAK
    I told her it sounds like traction control or maybe a differential problem..
    Took my camera phone under her car looking for worn extremely rusty cracked or broken problems around the wheels
    Her brake fluid was low
    We filled it before checking under the SUV
    I totally know the video we just watched has to with his brakes, the brake pedal doesn't have enough pressure in the brake lines I think it was my old jeep with was a master cylinder problem years ago THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAYED ON EVEN WHEN PARKED...
    it might have air in it or leaking...
    but with my mom's Chevy Suburban
    I looked around underneath of it around the front wheels and a bolt was totally broke underneath
    The bushing and bolt broke off,
    It appeared supposed to be connected to the frame underneath closest to the ground..
    I don't know what she ran over...
    But I said that's probably why..And told her to show the video to the mechanic..
    The next day, a GM mechanic (GOODYEAR MECHANIC) said that was probably why the brakes squealed,
    she had been bringing it in her car asking why her brakes squealed at least twice before he said brake dust, today he said because the bolt was broken and it swayed so much, that pressure like the car leaning so much caused the brakes to loose fluid and also SQUEAL...
    AND HE CHARGED TO PUT IN NEW STABILITRAK SENSOR
    Yes he said he did put in a new sensor..
    I SAID WHAT A NON WORKING BROKE SENSOR
    So today I started making a TH-cam video since he charged to fix it and charged for a " new sensor"
    I told my mom, I didn't think anything was wrong with her old sensor,
    since that sensor let her know there was a serious problem, it even shut off her car when going down a hill with a curve at the buttom...
    So I guess the GM GOODYEAR mechanic just reset the sensor
    THEY JUST TELL THE COMPUTER TO IGNORE THE PROBLEM..
    it's like that it even computer systems, they will run with a problem not being repaired at all, they just tell it to ignore that problem,
    IT MIGHT COME BACK ON LATER...
    But nothing appeared repaired
    It was fall break she had been driving the kids around WINTER IS COMING AND WELL HE CHARGED TO FIX IT
    YET DID NOT
    so I'm going to be posting a video about it in maybe a week,
    I hope the video can be about getting her money back
    Here is the link to the problem i found
    I don't plan on fixing it myself,
    I do plan on having it fixed before winter time,
    AND I DO HOPE TO GET MY MOM A REFUND OF SOME SORT..
