2015 silverado -abs/ stabilitrak


Recommended Posts

Posted

Did a little wheeling today in some dunes. Nothing to crazy at all. It was pretty bumpy though. But now my stabilitrak light is on along with my abs... it says "service stabilitrak" and it kicked my 4wd off twice. But I got it out of 4wd into 2wd

As soon as it kicked It out i had to get back into 4wd to get out of the area then I put it in 2wd and left

 

 

Where do I start? Will a code reader at the local autostore tell me what's wrong with it

Brake fluid or brake reservoir sensor, had the same problem w an '08. I'd start there.

I'll look into that. I'm gonna wash my truck tommorow and clean out the abs cable inputs.

You need to disable that system if your gonna be off road in the truck. The SDM is picking up vibrations and sending information to the EBCM, this information is coming from the multiaxis sensors in the SDM basically saying there wheel speed issues. Tires are slipping and speed variations from one wheel to another will set the abs/stabilitrak DTC's. There's a bulletin for a material that can be installed on the underside of the body above the transfer case that insulates these vibrations to the SDM.

That's the bulletin for the dealer. The parts for this bulletin are expensive because the kit services a bunch of vehicles. Are you out of bumper to bumper? How many miles do you have?

No I shouldnt be. I have 16k miles. It has a lift but I have an extra warranty. But either way, this shouldn't have happened. I could have done this exact thing on the construction jobsite I work on delivering material

Yea, GM is aware of the issue. More than likely the dealer isn't going to have the parts for it. Take it in, let them scan your EBCM for codes and lets see if the bulletin even applies first. If it does, DO NOT LET THEM PUT UNDERCOATING ON IT. This is NOT the same material that is sold through Lord Fusor. They will have to bite the bullet and order the kit. The spray material they should be able to obtain locally, but the spray gun to apply it has to be ordered. GM engineering wants a triple layer of the stuff installed rather than what the bulletin states. I've done several of these and haven't had any come back doing this procedure.

so no matter what it should be covered under warranty correct

Absolutely! The problem indicated in the bulletin has nothing to do with any lifts or leveling kits or whatever the dealership might possibly conjure up in their little minds.

I hope. I bought a lifted truck because I do construction. It goes around a jobsite a bit better than stock. So it's seen some mud and dirt. Just don't want that voiding it

do you know how to disconnect the abs wires by all 4 wheels? It seems they can be disconnected but I don't know how

There's a red locking tab attached to the connector. Pull that backwards, you see a black release tab underneath, push it downward while also pulling the connector backwards

    • Missing pieces of the Assembly   Detergency vs Solvency   Not the same thing. Detergency is the mechanism that surrounds solid particulates preventing amalgamation. Usually accompanied by a Dispersant whose job it is to keep those encapsulated particles in Suspension. Solvency keeps things that can be dissolved in solution.    Salt is a solid that can be dissolved. Pepper is a solid that cannot be dissolved. A detergent/dispersant is effective on pepper but a solvent is more effective on salt. As long as the solids remain in either state, dissolved or dispersed then they can be be removed with the oil upon change.    How many wranglers does it take to herd cats? Depends on how many cats your herding. How much sponge does it take to soak up water? How much water is there to soak up? Point is most oil blends start with some herding ability and next to zero sponge and recently even fewer wranglers are being sent to do the same job.    So you start with a dozen cowboys and zero cows but at the drive progresses you pick up cows along the way, but not cowboys. At some point you have more cows that the wranglers can handle and some leave the herd. Deposits. And the API has an acceptable number of cows they are willing to let loose. In the ideal world zero is the right number for he rancher but to the butcher....a few lost is fine. This cow is beat to death. Let's move on....   Solvency isn't something oils on the Walmart shelf care about AT ALL. Problem is, you motor does. Fuels driven varnish sticks rings and only a solvent can keep them in check. The bet is that the solids driven portion that plug the expander rings and the oil drain backs and VVT screens and AFM screens will be an issue long before varnish is. Not that it wont be but if they market well enough the consumer can be kept ignorant enough to either believe it is "normal" (A quart in 1 or 2K is normal) OR is kept at bay longer than the first owner is likely to hang on to the unit. Solvency cost money.    Now the OEM's have John Q. Public buffaloed into the belief that the number cows accumulated along the trail is a known and predictable CONSTANT. It isn't. Nor is the rate at which they crossed paths with them. Only the number of wrangles is constant. Or was. Each new generation of oil sees fewer and fewer of them.    So what happens when the number of cowboys is lower (lower TBN) with each seasons trail but the trial is longer (OCI) and the number of cows along that trail continues increase? (Conditions that promote deposits).    For awhile the blenders were on to something. Better bases are harder to degrade (fewer cows) but that was overtaken by a longer trail (OCI) and improved breeding (More cows) while continuing to reduce the cowboy staffing levels (TBN/Aniline #).    Marketing has been successful. We've fired most of the staff, cows breed line bunnies, the trail is ten times longer and we've convinced the boss his ranch is in better shape that it ever was.    That kids is just the cleaning side. The side few pay attention to.

    • Looking for this part for my truck. They don't sell just that one piece and to get it you have to pay over $100 even used for the whole air tube. The piece the hose clamp snaps into that is held on by the screw and nut. If anyone has access to one please let me know.
