What is the Stabilitrak?
Stabilitrak is a system that helps a vehicle go into a straight line when it is already moving.
The system uses sensors to determine the position of the steering wheel and tires compared to the direction the car is moving.
When driving in less-than-ideal conditions, Stabilitrak help stabilizes the vehicle.
Stabilitrak Example
If a vehicle is driving on a slippery surface and fish tails to the right, but the wheels are pointed left, Stabilitrak will apply the brake on the outside front tire to straighten the car out.
What Causes the Service Stabilitrak Light?
The Stabilitrak system is controlled by a combination of the steering, the brakes, and the wheel speed sensors. However, there are nearly a dozen or more problems that can lead to the system turning off because of the safety functionality built into it.

My StabilTrek light came on but i had to use my car. On my way home from town (9 miles) my car would not go more than 8mph. No one was around to help so i drive it iny the shoulder of the road. It really started making noise a couple miles out. I am a disabled great grandma on fixed income and my car sits on my lawn now. My prescriptions exceed my income so fixing it is out of the question. 😢
Thank you for your info, now i understand that I better just get used to the county transit hourly bus schedule out to my neck of the woods. 😊
Thanks for the info. I have a misfire and didnt know that could cause the stabilitrak light to come on.
Great vid! Thank you!
Just got struts replaced without a wheel alignment. The light came on. Could the car being outta alignment cause the light to come on?
The only best video about this. Omg noone else knows that they talking about
dude thank you so much, i was so convinced it was my entire abs system. but realized my rpms were jumping; conclusion miss fire is no good.
I have lpg on my Chevrolet one injector was giving up and that was the reason for my stabilty track
Extremely helpful
Just replaced the struts without gettin an alignment and the light came on. Do u think the light came on cause it needs a wheel alignment
Just an FYI spare tire on rear can cause this issue most of the time the rim is a different size as well as the tire
I have a 2011 GMC Acadia and if i press the brake, traction control is on but when i release the brake the traction control is off... do i had to change the sensor in the brake pedal?
I have a 2005 Yukon and this light came and vehicle breaks completed locked but the break pedal is all the way out and won't go forward or backward
my chevy Traverse Lt AWD has traction control and stability on dashboard right after I replaced right front strut im working on replacing front Left side soon i don't understand why the light would come on after just replace one strut press on the gas pedal trying going home from the store and bucks like crazy any help would be appreciated ty
I bought a Launch code reader.
My 2014 Chevy Cruze has been doing this stability light traction control light keeps coming on sometimes the check engine light will come on with it. But it will do it at an idle it will do it going down the road typically if I turn the car off for 5 minutes and turn it back on it will be fine I won't do it again for like a week I've changed out plugs and coils battery ground wire for the battery I've had my suspension checked out my wheel speed sensors I cannot figure out what is going on
So I just replaced upper control arms, lower ball joints, thai rods enter an outer id alert and pitman arm, On the way to the shop to get an alignment to get a stable light in a Service airbag... Didn't pull codes yet what these two be related....
Same issue…did figure yours out?
First thing to check is you hub bearing.
Does the cat converter trigger it? My 2017 read that both banks are faulty , just that , no wheel sensor codes or other codes
If you have a basic scanner it won’t show that you need a full system scanner, wiggle the wheel speed sensor see if it kicks on if it does most likely your wheel speed sensor. I’m my case driver rear speed sensor
My Impala 13 ended up being a loose ABS wiring connector on chassis side.
was it fixed easily??
I am not getting any codes on my reader, but my ABS, and that Stabllitrack light / warring is on. how do i tell what speed sensor is the issue?
you should jack your car up and put it on stands: then check to see if any wires have been cut or if theres any missing. make sure everything is plugged in.
I thought it was speed sensor on mine but it wasn't..did you find the issue
@@FLbowtieguy Yea, it was the ABS sensor, the one that sits on the caliper. Is that the ABS or speed ? I forget, but once I replaced it the light went off.
@@FLbowtieguy also, I used a scanner at autozone and the code kept saying speed sensor which on that car is the entire wheel hub, so I tried the abs sensor first bc it was cheaper and damn it worked.,
@@m.t.v.7934 did you have. A stabiltrak warning light and and abs light on
I wish they had a video for when you put it in four-wheel-drive 4low both traction control, and Stabilitrak come on in my Tahoe well my lady was cleaning my vehicle and some little hands touch the knob when the vehicle was in park so then my lady comes and picks me up from work and we get ready to take off and it starts acting weird and I just told her to put it back in park and then I see that it’s in between four high and four low so then I put it back on auto and then I switch back through it just to make sure everything worked fine. Everything worked fine until I put it on four low and then those two codes popped up. I have an engine code, but I have holes in my Cadillac converter and the wire that runs my O2 sensor to the Cadillac converter. The wires are destroyed. I gotta replace the wires. But I don’t have any funky eye or no high idols. It runs, smooth other than I’m worried about when I put it in for low the traction control is off and the other light pops on and it’s never done that.
what if my light comes on for a couple seconds and then turns off will the scanner still read any codes
Did you figure your issue out
Depends if you are on a slick surface. If you are, it will come on for a few seconds until it regains traction. If it comes on and stays on then it's telling you there is another issue.
Yes once a vehicle throws a code it's automatically stored. You can even get codes with no lights because it's pending.
I have the service stabiltrack light on, the traction control light on, my check trailer warning came on and my brakes are stuck on evenly about 50 percent pressure and the truck is basically undriveable. Has anyone had this problem? It’s a 2015 duramqx. It’s been in a shop 6 times now. The truck will drive fine then all the sudden these warning lights come on and the brakes are stuck on evenly about 50 percent pressure. Then it goes away and drives fine. I take it back to the shop and it won’t do it again. Today I got it to stop by turning traction control on and off, exhaust brake on and off and turning the truck on and off. Then the brake pressure released and I drove it home with the traction control fault light on and the following codes
Co131 ABS
Co273 Brake reservoir sensor fault
B101D AMP
B124B HUMAN MACHINE
B374A HVAC
B1325 HVAC
B1325 Ratio
Uo415 t/b
Uo415 t/c
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is that the only way to correct the Stablitrack?
yes, you should definitely go to your local oreillys and ask them to run a diagnostic! good luck
Why is my power steering acting up
To reset the dash, turn the key to auxiliary and push the gas pedal three times within 3 seconds
In the title of ur video it says reset. you never said one word about how to reset it. ??
Once the problem is fixed it will automatically reset
Those free code scanners tell wrong things
All this fine and dandy if it was throwing a code
If it's not throwing an engine code it is probably a wheel speed sensor/ABS sensor. He did mention that.
My code
No mention of reset or anything after the repair. 👎
A reset? the repair is the reset
what is there to reset? you have your fix the issue before your car could work normally.
He's essentially giving a general explanation as to what it is, what it does and what could possibly set it off. It's up to you to scan your vehicle and diagnose what is wrong with your vehicle. As stated above, it will reset itself when the problem has been resolved.
I have no codes...but its tell me stability and traction controls and low tire pressure...will a low tire pressure set these off...
@@JereB698Well according to some other mechanics the track system can be reset.
