Possible reasons why your Stabilitrak light is on in your GM 

Thanks for the awesome video my guy. Saved me some $$$ on my 2007 GMC Sierra now the inside of my truck doesn't look like a x-mas tree.

This video just saved me such a headache, I shut my car off, pumped my breaks several times then restarted the car. All fixed, thank you very much

On my '11 Silverado it was the brake light switch. Dash was lit up like a Christmas tree, wouldn't go into gear and my mechanic told me that when I did manage to get it in gear that cruise control wouldn't have worked. I was thinking it was gonna be a wheel speed sensor. On a side note it crazy how much all that traction control, Stabilitrac and any other so called nanny features affect us. I spun out on a slightly damp road and went in the ditch when that switch went out.

had some problems with the cruise control not working right .and abs light and traction control light was coming on and off on my 2010 chevy .when lights were on the 4 wheel drive would not work so i changed the brake light switch like you should and every thing works great thanks for the info and video

Clay I just fixed my heater hose. So I started driving the vehicle. It's a 2007 Yukon. The stabilitrak light came on

Thank you I feel better now about my light thing lol coming on thank you.very informative

CLay, I've changed the brake sensor, ground wire from firewall to block. Stabilitrak and traction control off light still being displayed on my 2009 Silverado, really need another avenue before turning my 16 year old son loose in this truck.

Wheel speed sensor seems to be my problem also I own a 2010 Chevrolet Impala LT and constantly getting the Stabilitrac error along with a few other errors I can't recall at the moment.

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.

Very helpful , same problem and just noticed that the break lights are On Thanks

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? I am so grateful for this video. I had no clue before. Indeed, I hit Subscribe and a thumbs up.

Good lookin out! Helped me a ton

Thank you. Subscribed & look forward to more.

Thank you just happen on my 2007 Chevy Trailblazer I will update you tomorrow

Thank you fixed my problem, but didn't have to take out the switch.

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?

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.

I was wondering why this happened after I replaced my brake booster pump. I might have that switch in the right position

My 2005 Z71 4X4 Tahoe has service stability and service brake on and most of the time it locks the brakes up. I can loosen the brake fluid lines on the front and the code goes away and I can then safely drive the vehicle. But now it will not go away

my service stabiltrak an service traction control an my abs light comes an i replaced the steering wheel position senor an worked for couple days an its back on so it must be the part your talking about.

Thanks Clay....

Great video

I have a 2006 Denali that this light comes on almost half the time i leave the house and it will go off after i turn the car off and back on i wander if its the light or the car.

I have jus restarted my truck and its gone😀😀. I felt relief .

I've got a 2009 Buick Enclave. Stabilitrak message and cruise quit working. I replaced the brake relay switch, only $13 from a dealer. It fixed the cruise, but not the Stabilitrak message. Now what?

2012 Acadia w/approx 85K mi well maintained has recently been shifting into 4wd on the fly and randomly. Brought it into one of the few remaining Sears Auto Centers few mos ago where they changed the tranny fluid w/out disturbing filter/pan. Noticeable downshift and Traction Control Off, Service Stabilitrak, Service Traction Control and Engine Power is Reduced msgs come on as result. Thoughts please, thanks!

How can I service the stabili trak for a 2012 gmc terrain

I drive a 2008 Silverado. I just hit a bump and the stabilitrak and check engine light pop out. But the engine now is making a knocking sound. Any ideas?

This might help someone, i have an 07 Silverado and the stability trac and traction control would flash on and say service soon then go away..... my fix was replacing the MAF sensor and the air filter, i also replaced the spark plugs. Believe it or not, the MAF sensor does infact have something to do with the stability trac issue.

I put a lift kit on my truck and it tripped this issue wanted to know if you knew anything about what it triggered

I did tune up,new brakes,all new sensors,and new hub on one side I thought might be bad,checked all fuses and good still have stabil track and abs light with no check engine light.any ideas for me? Have a 19 GMC canyon with 67 k miles

Would this include 2008 Suburban?

Hi The Clay Way... So was it this switch that realy causing the stabiliti Track,ABS and parking-Brake warning lights to come on in your truck ? 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. Thankssssssss I'll have a look tomorow by replacing this switch and see if it will solve my problem. Thanks sir ! Regards.

Does it work on a 2015 chevy silverado 1500

I have an 07 yukon denali and the stabilitrak came on then check engine for p0011 still don't know what it is

Is stable link light also connected to compression in one cylinder? Two vehicles are doing this

How to fixe Service stabilitrack GMC Terrain 2011

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.

As a fellow tech alot a people came into my shop with problems like this. Your video here was very helpful. . Thanks Clay.

Is there a part number for it ? I have a 2011 Avalanche

There is a Service Stabiltrac message also its the enging ruff running and flasing engine lite..

I have a question would that light cause my brakes not to work because at times I'll have great brakes so I know my brakes are good I just had a mechanic do my brakes my question is now that that light is on why is it at random times does it feel like I have no brakes at all

Steering wheel position sensor another possibility. Was down that road before..

So the brake light switch was the reason the abs and/or stabilitrac light was on?

There's going come a day where I'm going to RIP out all this crazy shit out my 2008 4x4 Silverado and put 400 in there and put mechanical kit on transmission and rewire this whole truck !

I get stabilitrak, no abs, no track control (lights stay illuminated on dash), cruise control works, and its intermittent. What can be the possible causes and ways of troubleshooting? Big help if you cover this topic.

How do you know if the bright light switch is bad

My 2009 duramax 2500 has a stabilitrak error Code reader shows p07080 error transmission sensor a. I loose shift indicator light and it stays in whatever gear I am in when error surfaces. No cruise control. It has been resetting if you let it sit turned off but it's getting bad enough now I can't drive it. Error even occurs parked and idling. I'm frustrated nothing I've tried has worked

Is there a easy way to HELP😉 the electrical system cause a uncontrollable fire in these pos trucks? Ive sunk just about enough time and money into mine and I about to drive it off a cliff

My stabiliTrak light on and parking assistance. My car had sensor changed and it's still bad. Now it says po207 code

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 RU-vid 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.. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ab7yDc23ch0.html

I got it fixed, in my case after engine change, they forgot (smh)to connect back the front right ABS cable, code cleared

1:44 minutes of nonsense before you get to the point. People know to subscribe if they want to. We don’t need to be sold every video. Just get to the point of the issue. Good info just to long of bla bla bla

2007 avalanche 4x4 lifted 8” I’ve replaced both front wheel hubs, with speed sensors and I only get the stability light when I make a turn right or left it don’t matter! No loss of power but I do feel a weak and slight pulse in the breaks!! I thought it was a bad wheel hub I bought from autozone so I upgraded and bought the high dollar moog ones and it’s the same issue Any suggestions would be helpful

Also it doesn't matter if the road is wet or dry the traction control light and Stabilitrak still comes on

Acadia Stablilink is this a poor design on GMC ?

Does anyones car turn off from it shut down completely then jump and it comes back on

My stabilitrak traction control light keeps coming in in my 2016 gmc acadia I have taken it to two mechanics do is put it on the computer to run Diagnostics. Nothing has came up it has said nothing about traction control Stabilitrak password when I get in the vehicle for the first time during the day and start it up it takes about 10 to 15 minutes before the light comes on but when I turn the car off the light goes out but it always comes back on also if I try to merge quickly into a lane it comes on and it feels like the car is skipping I don't know what else to do or I am thinking about taking it to the GM dealership I am at a loss for words I've been through the two mechanics that tell me there is nothing wrong that they can see or that the computer recognizes

Hi Clay I have a 2016 gmc terrain with 130 plus thousand miles, today my stabilitrak light came on, first my dash needles started going up and down, then I lost power and my check engine light came on, I stopped turned it off and started it again, engine light still on, after a few minuted service satbilitrak light came on and loss of power, I was able to make it home, now my question is can it be the spark plugs? they haven't been change yet and would like to know if that can cause the problem. Thanks

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)

Hi Clay the GMC Envoy is making some noise like bad wheel bearing and the Stabilitrak light is on and off hopping is not the transfer case can I get your shop address so you can look at it ?

It was a rainy day and my traction control and brake light came on and left headlight went out any tipe? Oh and that traction control and brake light turns on when i drive and turns off when i turn of the vehicle as long as i don't drive.

Hey Clay ...this is Clay Bartley i have a 2 prong problem....i have a 2009 chevy tahoe which has stablitrac problem with a engine warning light ..The engine is running a little ruff...am just wondering if it may be a bad spark plugs or or bad plug wire ...or tire sensor..?

I domt know if you'll see this but have you ever came cross 4wd, stabilitrak and traction control going out all at the same time. My initial thoughts was wiring or actuator. Second opinion would be awsome.
