Happened to me in my 08 Yukon, took it to the mechanic and he replace spark plugs (double platinum from autozone) and problem got resolved, remember DOUBLE PLATINUM, those are the ones what your Yukon needs 👍
Thanks alot gentleman i am from saudia Arabia country in a small town no one know how to fix my problem but after i see your clip i fix my denali 2008 yokun 👌👌
saeed alshaikhi the real issue here is your plugs and air filter need changed!! As does your battery if it’s 3yrs or older. These vehicles no longer have distributors so they rely on good battery power to power the coils, bad spark and clogged filter cuases build up wich will short out your throadle body sensor, because the flap will be restricted of movement! Also always put very good fuel cleaner once in a while to keep fuel injector s in good shape! Good luck..
@@LH81633 my 07 tahoe lt has a rough idling and the stability control is off. Plus a lil bit of white smoke coming from it. My mechanic says the engine needs to be rebuilt and its just at 130k miles. What should I do?
I have 2014 Of the same exact model but your wife made your car looks better and newer than mine for real. My problems still exist. I will do the same thing you did and see if that fixes it. Thanks for the great video.
I have one of these babies and thanks for the info I'm also a woman driver. Who's a little bit more knowledgeable than most. I raised my voice to love vehicles and do their own work on their own cars. My youngest one is a pro
I’m going to look at a 2008 Yukon XL 1500 tomorrow has traction control light on. He says he doesn’t know why hopefully it’s an easy fix like yours was but he said it runs fine.
@@reekso592 no i passed on it it has to much rust and when i looked at the dash it said 288k when his ads said 187k but it definitely sounded like it had a lifter tick or a knock of some sorts
Got a question. I have 378k miles on my 2007 yukon xl Just 2 weeks ago, i replaced the radiator, water pump, timing chain & oil pump & and pick-up tube. I've had the same indication coming across my dashboard in the past. I did the same thing by changing the brake pedal switch, throttle body, and throttle body sensor. In the past, mine did come on, and with the scan tool found out the #7 plug had oil on it and was filing out. Changed the plug and valve cover gaskets and the abs and traction light went off. Now mine has been on for a few months even before I changed all the parts I mentioned Did your check engine light come on, too?
Great Video and nice ride! Any advice on how to get the Service airbag light off on an 07 GMC YUKON... Been bugging me for a while now and i cant seem to find the problem
in addition to the Stabililink and traction control warnings, I have had trans shifts in 2 to 3 and 3 to 4. I push the towing button and it seems eliminate that so far. still analyzing
the BEST WAY to get to number 8 (5.3: sierra, yukon, silverado) is to get a 360 universal joint adapter for your 3/8 inch socket and then sprawl over the engine and get personal with your truck.. I mean who doesn't enjoy humping a gmc motor? I know mine runs a little better with this kind of love. No, seriously, I just did a complete spark plug and wire set and ignition coil replacement this very morning on a 2011 5.3 sierra. I don't understand this crap about removing the pax wheel and shroud to get to number 8. Was it hard? No. Did it take more time than the other 7, yes! How much more time than the other 7? about five minutes. It's all about having the right kind of tools...a simple universal joint 3/8 inch adapter and knowing how to get down with the left arm and wrist. (easy for the lefties). The trick is to thread your arm between some hoses and use your right hand to steady the adapter. (because it wants to flop around when you are removing the plug and reinstalling a plug. The coil pack was even easier with a short throw 1/4 drive ratchet and socket ....3/8 inch 360 universal adapter...$3.00 at harbor fright! don't be afraid to touch your motor people.
An easier way to get to spark plugs # 5,6,7 is to use an 3 inch extension swivel ratchet 3/8 with the spark plug socket be sure to hook it up to the spark plug you are taking off then attach your ratchet for the #8 spark plug use 1 inch extension with the spark plug socket. remember to also attach the 1 inch ext and spark plug socket into the spark plug before connecting your swivel head to it
I have the exact same truck and my teuck never had a problem until my number 3 plugs and wire messed up ....then my truck loss power and my stabilizer light was on and off .... i changed it out back to normal
Had the same issue on my 2007 Yukon xl. It was the lower control arm. Changed the control arm assembly and fixed. It. The pair (driver side & passenger side) runs about $230 to $330 depending where you purchase it. Of course Amazon or Ebay has it cheaper but read any and all reviews. Napa, O'Reilly and Advance Auto has the pair in the $300 range.
Actually number eight ain't that bad if you're going to change it and got one a new one to put in it just break the white porcelain piece off of it then take it out makes it a whole lot easier to get the socket on it
Got the same Stabilitrack/TC on, replaced plugs and wires, replaced abs sensor on driver. Not fixed. Going to dealer to reset fuel trim on computer. Silverado LS 2012
jayb198083 replace plugs gap/torque to spec!!! Also replace air filter, dump 1 gallon of laquar thinner to ten gallons on gas in tank run till empty!! Also have battery checked , these cars need great source of power (battery) as they do it have distributors any more! Now take long skinny screw driver to fuel injectors listen to see if they are all ticking. No need to replace wire and coils as everyone seems to do!
II am wondering what does specific name of the plugs are but you are replacing I am 25 year old email not very familiar with cars but my car is doing this exacting pain if you could give some specifics or apart number that would be much appreciated
Coming from Lexus/Toyota vehicles but the point is still true but if the ecu picks up really ANY kind of fault code, it puts a "limp mode" algorithm to reduce engine and transmission problems. Even if it's a cylinder misfire from a bad plug, wire or coil pack in my case, GM vehicles will throw a stabilitrac code, check engine and ABS light just like my Lexus' when an o2 sensor went bad or when I put a turbo on my 2jzGE...limp mode. If vehicles didn't do this, 98% of people end up blowing up their turdbox! With higher compression and e85 compatibility, this light may be annoying but it's just another reason why this engine is legendary and all-out bulletproof! Basic maintenance goes a long ways..
Opie Rebuilds my 2007 Tahoe has been causing my problems. Something keep triggering the traction to come on and it becomes hard to drive or accelerate and sometimes not move at all. And when I can’t move I have to tap on the brakes for it to move but the traction control stays on.. was this the problem you were having?? Im gonna try what you did here and see if it helps.
I love how people will spend a couple of thousand dollars trying to fix it themselves when a reputable mechanic could have fixed it for a couple of hundred. . ...yes there are still good reputable mechanics out there. You just have to weed through a sea of dumb asses to find them
aef I’ve taken my truck to a reputable mechanic twice and it screws up again after a few months. Cost me nearly a grand. I’m going to try to figure it out myself this time.

I just added brake fluid and it solved my problem. Check fluids first!
Thank you so much ! Mine was stained so it looked full but it was completely dry! I filled it up and boom it was good to go thank you

You dont need to take off anything to change the wires just need the right tools. Changed all mine in less than 30 minutes

Great review mane keep up the good work
Thank you
Very helpful
Thanks for the fix. Whenever those lights comes on my truck feels like it's on 1 plug
Thank for the info I hope this works!
was your traction control light intermittent? mine comes on ONLY when turning slowly..........
I have the exact same truck and my teuck never had a problem until my number 3 plugs and wire messed up ....then my truck loss power and my stabilizer light was on and off .... i changed it out back to normal
buddy clyde don’t forget to change air filter and put a very good fuel injector cleaner in it as your injector is clogged causing plug to fault out
Have u ever had a slight shake on front passenger side after 70mph?
Had the same issue on my 2007 Yukon xl. It was the lower control arm. Changed the control arm assembly and fixed. It. The pair (driver side & passenger side) runs about $230 to $330 depending where you purchase it. Of course Amazon or Ebay has it cheaper but read any and all reviews. Napa, O'Reilly and Advance Auto has the pair in the $300 range.
So all this stuff fixes your service traction control????
What about the Yukon Danali 2010, same issues?
I did too changed it all.
Had to get the smoke in really quick
My 2007 tahoe had idle problems, ended up being a sparkplug.
Actually number eight ain't that bad if you're going to change it and got one a new one to put in it just break the white porcelain piece off of it then take it out makes it a whole lot easier to get the socket on it
My 2007 Yukon GMC had the same problem
changed my plugs, new oil and all , still having idle problems and stabilitrak still on . Im sick

It’s probably your negative battery cable there a recall you need the update cable
My 07 denali i try to fix transmisión
An said is limp mode i dont know wath to do
Mines came on today but when I stopped and turned it off and started it back up it fixed itself
Can I drive it with the problem?
Hey was wondering what did you do to fix the problem because I have a 2009 Yukon Xl an is going through this as we speak
Changed the plugs
Did u ever get a code
I have a 2004 Yukon XL it turn on in the dashboard lights TC do anybody know what can be? Thanks
Same here. Need that info...
II am wondering what does specific name of the plugs are but you are replacing I am 25 year old email not very familiar with cars but my car is doing this exacting pain if you could give some specifics or apart number that would be much appreciated
So I need a tune up
I done see how plugs and wires would affect the traction control
