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.

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

      J&L OIL SEPARATOR CO

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Just did an injector/HPFP replacement on Pepper at 192,400 miles; close enough to 200K, RIGHT? (If 200K is considered life end and to me it isn't). But hey, to each his own.    Have never run a catch can on this vehicle. Back side of every valve looked like a new valve spray painted semigloss black. Port walls looked 'neat' (all a normal result of passive EGR via VVT) Zero build up even in AFM cylinders. Just color. It uses no measurable oil and never has.    At 155,000 I put her on E-85 and a borescope of the cylinders at plug change showed very clean pistons and valve faces. The replaced injector tips looked new. (It was the pump piston seal that was leaking). Oh well, have six good backups.    Still gets 28 mpg on gas (highway average) and over 20 (highway) on alky. UOA's look good and runs as good now as it did when I bought it. Better in fact.    What improvement would a Catch Can provide this motor?     And given all this I expect that IF I installed one I'd see some water/gas/oil vapor accumulation. Byproducts of normal combustion.   Having said that, IF my motor used an appreciable amount of oil I'd consider it a useful 'crutch' until I had the situation corrected OR if bore polished, until I junked it or rebuilt it to stave off repeated plug fouling.    I'm not telling you what I THINK. But what its DONE.

      Starting a new thread regarding mounting my 2014 OEM wheels to my 2026

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Love the look. I'm a SCSB lover myself.    Two items. 1.) A spacer changes scrub radius but this also changes when we use wheels of different offsets. A little isn't a big deal. 2.) Steel wheels, alloy wheels all have different thickness. Same effect on the stud and lug nut as a spacer. When hub centric the wheel isn't supported by the stud. It's supported by the hub. The stud just keeps it all together.

      2016 Sierra 5.3L L83 new injectors now runs rich.

      By JAI3 · Posted

      I had a evap sol go bad a couple weeks ago. . I replaced it.  While watching live data at the time I saw I had some cylinder 1 misfires. No MIL but on live data I could see ~50 at startup and about 70 more after an hour a drive all on cyl 1.  I also noticed that the LTFT were -5% to -15% always.  And that bank 2 is always -3% richer than bank 1. Even across all driving modes, city, highway, etc it’s always 3% richer than bank 1. So I start with the misfire. Swapped coil, plug, and plug wires from 1 to 3. No follow. I got an Injector reseal kit, pulled the D/s injector rail, swapped #1 and #3 injectors, resealed them, reinstalled and retested.  The misfire followed to 3. So I ordered and replaced all 8 injectors, spark plugs, and plug wires. Also replaced the 1 time use fuel pipes under the intake manifold.  Injectors that were in the truck since new were  Part # 12668390.  I replaced them with # 12742701 Got from RockAuto. Pretty certain they’re genuine and the correct ones. I called a friend at a parts store who told me “the 12742701 were the correct superseded part # for the originals I was replacing”. So started truck after replacing all that and it’s running -15 - -30 LTFTs. I reset the fuel trims with GDS2 and drove it for a 60 miles trip each way. There have been no changes in the LTFTs.  I checked if the HPFP was leaking into the crankcase. I removed the pvc and watched the trims. No difference.  I checked the alcohol content and it was at 10%  I’m out of ideas here. Truck seems to run great. Just always rich on the fuel trims.  Anyone with any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  I ran an injector balance test just for the heck of it and it came back this. I’m confused.  I have gds2 and some other diag tools if anyone knows of anything I should test next.
