2008 Yukon Denali. I was getting the "stabilitrak off, traction control off, service brake system" trifecta. Performed this repair using ACDelco D1539J ($8 on Amazon). Took all of 5 minutes and solved my problems. Thanks for the video. It really is as easy as it looks.
Thanks for the detailed camera shots. Changed this part in about 20 minutes in -2 weather, with just a 10mm wrench and a set of keys to pry off that clip. Son now has cruise control again!!
2007 avalanche thanks for the video I just replaced mine, my brakes as well as my gear stop shifting out of park, I watched your video and now both my brakes lights and gear is shifting and working perfectly perfect
Once again thank you for another wonderful video, I truly appreciate the time and effort you put in so idiots like me can keep working on the newer vehicles we have to buy but hopefully can keep running a long time with your helpful videos.
Bro, I swear on my life, No homo, but If you were standing in front of me right now, I'd kiss you on the cheek...perhaps twice!!!!! Here's why. I bought a used 2010 Chevy Avalanche, with 97,000 miles for $11,000. Well, a month after the purchase (this past friday), I got 3 dash notifications, stabiltrak, ABS, and something else, I forget. So I took it to the mechanic. He says "oh yes, your entire brake system is all jacked up, looking at about $2500 for parts and labor." I have 0 patience, and almost just said F*ck it, and paid to get it fixed. Something said hold off and research. So, I did that. That's when I learned the brake switch can send all those signals. So I researched videos in how to change it, and found your life saving, wallet saving video. I'm serious man, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY SOUL.........and pockets!!!!!! Can I come to you with any other questions regarding repairs? If not, this was a great experience, thank you again!!!!!
i gotta say your stupid for paying 2500 for a 15 dollar fix. but yes ive been there too, we all want shit done fast these days but that also never garantees its gonna be fixed. 97% of all mechanics even the honest ones are all now instructed to con you out of your hard earned money, or they wil get fired. 2022. covid fucked everything up. now all people want to do is con people and scam them, always do reasearch beofre paying annnnytthingg my guy. it less of a bigger headache down the road =)
Thanks my brake lights did not turn on I was for a day checking the lights and fuses and nothing and thanks to your video I could solve my problem my chevy tahoe came back to life
I just bought a 2002 escalade with the 6.0 vortec V8 and AWD. my running front and rear lights work and my turns and hazards, but NOT my brake lights. would this possibly fix my brakelight to work again??? please let me know.
I replaced mine yesterday. On the way to work this morning my traction control light came on abs also came on. Tail lights stay illuminated all the time??
I just replaced mine on a Chevy Silverado and the brake lights just stayed lit up at first but after tightning the screw more they are working like they should.
If I did everything in this video and somehow that 10mm bolt it was just never there could it be that I don’t have the 10mm bolt that’s it is not fixed or not really been going crazy cause brake lights stay on all the time and I’m not sure if it’s because of that 10mm bolt or completely something else
When the switch is bad or going bad, it can cause different issues. A few very common issues is speed control shuts off while engaged or won't engage at all, traction control lights emit, brake lights flash or work and then don't. Usually the switch starts failing and causes little things to happen until eventually wears or fails completely.
My brake lights still worked perfectly but cruise would not. I figured it was a waste of time to replace the switch but did it anyway and viola… cruise control working like new.

I've got an Avalanche, I've been getting those same errors, and my cruise control doesn't work. I'm glad to know that this should fix all of that!
That's it? I get same problems but my truck is lifted so I assumed that was why

Thanks for the helpful video. I always like to watch these videos before I do anything no matter how simple it may seem.
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!

I was gonna replace my switch but I couldn’t stop dancing to this “Rupaul Drag Race” soundtrack.
Thank you for the instructions.
Now You really explained the deal with that damn clip ! :) Thank You very much !!!
My 02 avalanche overhead brake light works intermittently does that mean it's the brake switch too?
Good job on the video! I just bought the switch and didn't really know how to change it. Seems easy enough. Now I gotta get grease. Thanks!
So if the break switch does go out will a code populate for it?
Thanks for the video. Do I need to apply more peanut butter when replacing? Just playing
Just replaced mine it’s not letting me shift out of park. What did I do wrong?
I just replaced mine on a Chevy Silverado and the brake lights just stayed lit up at first but after tightning the screw more they are working like they should.

Why is all music after the code scanner shows up?
If the switch is bad will your brake lights still work?
When the switch is bad or going bad, it can cause different issues. A few very common issues is speed control shuts off while engaged or won't engage at all, traction control lights emit, brake lights flash or work and then don't. Usually the switch starts failing and causes little things to happen until eventually wears or fails completely.
Any idea where the switch is on a 2013 Chevy Avalanche? I can't find anything on the brake pedal with wires coming from it.
My brake lights still worked perfectly but cruise would not. I figured it was a waste of time to replace the switch but did it anyway and viola… cruise control working like new.
I have the service stabilitrak message and the Cruise controll dont work.. is that same problem you haved?
Yes, that's the same issue.
Dope track -lol
