Was doing some off-roading yesterday and used hill descent control coming down a fairly steep trail. The system disengaged and then I got two messages on my DIC, one saying service stabilitrak and the other service ABS. Once I turned off the truck and restarted it, the service lights disappeared and the message didn't come back. Anyone know what might have caused this or what the issue might be? I plan on taking it in and having the dealer look at it when I get my oil changed but I'm not too concerned since the warning went away after I restarted the truck and hasn't come back on since. Just curious what might have caused this.

Yes, on my way down I managed to smash the underside on a rock :( But after inspecting it, all that did was put a hole in my front skid plate, nothing else was damaged. Maybe the impact knocked a sensor around and caused the warning to flash?

I also had the Service Stabilitrac message come on. Started when they were doing road work and there was lots of tiny pebbles on a highway. Took it to the dealer, and they noted cause: “DTC C0196-5A in EBCM”. They explained to me its a known issue with my 2016 CCSB. Pebble or rock hits a sensor and trips the alert. Fix was 1. Apply vibration deadening material to transmission tunnel and 2. Replace module part # 13512417. Have not had the issue since. Mine was covered under warranty.

I have had this happen to me as well, it happened on a unpaved rather rocky road as I was going down hill with the hill descent control on. The first message that came on was "stibiltrack control needs service" after coming to a stop it went away then I continued down hill and applied the hill descent again on unpaved bumpy road and the same message came on again. but after getting back on paved road the message didnt come back on. This has only happened on this same strech of downhill in the same conditions. I'm due for a oil change and have free one with the dealer will bring it up with them and mention the above info and report back.

Let me know how that goes! Which dealer do you go to? I'm in West Jordan but I got my truck from Jerry Seiner up near downtown.

I will bud, I picked up mine at Jerry Siener north salt lake they have always been great to deal with Tom the service advisor is a awesome guy. I now go to the Sandy location and they too are really a great bunch have always taken care of me and answered any questions I’ve had and told me whether or not it’s was worth spending the extra on certain services or if I could do it myself. I’m going in this week and I’ll let you know how it goes!

This may, or may not apply: Check the camera that is attached to the rear view mirror and the windshield. When my windshield was replaced, the camera stopped working, kept getting service stabilitrack message, and I believe the abs message, too, and lane departure rumbler in the seat stopped working. I unplugged the camera and ran the truck and later reattached the cable to the camera, and it reset itself. I ended up keeping the two plastic trim pieces off and the Stabilitrack issues went away. 14 Gmc Sierra Slt.

My ABS and Stabilitrack sensors both went off today. Drove it over to Chevy and they said the front ABS wheel speed sensor was throwing the codes. The service guy checked it and saw that the rubber around the wires had worn off and probably hit metal which caused the warning lights.

      Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.

      OCI, not when but why?

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact.

      Transmission jumping out of gear while driving.

      By JimCost2014 · Posted

      Probably a one and done post, but do you have a CEL on the dash? Was having issues with my transmission, fortunately only a week, and it turned out to be the transmission harness. Valve body was in good shape, so new harness with all the sensors attached, new fluid, and filter. Seems to have worked so far?

      Missing thrust bearing? And oil selection

      By Atlas · Posted

      Two interesting tidbits of information which are NOT related were just released.   One, regarding the possible thrust bearing issues / engine failures with the 3.0. Demonworks just did a segment in which they believe they may have found "a" or "the" cause of thrust bearing failures: A missing thrust bearing. If the engine doesn't have all its thrust bearings from the factory, the missing bearing can cause extra play which ends up destroying a nearby thrust bearing which then sends metal through the engine.       Of other importance, Lake Speed Jr released some interest information regarding oil weight selection for the 3.0. Comparisons of:   AcDelco 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w30 Mobil 1 ESP x4 0w40. Mobil Delvac 5w40   Spoiler alert: The Mobils are PAO Ester -base and the ACDelco is a Group III base. Mobil shows lower wear in their tests for similar weights. Additive packages between 20-30-40 weight ESP's appear to be the same, but only 0w20 is Dexos D licensed. Wear is even more reduced with 30 and 40 weight ESP although all perform very well and resist shear and provide very similar viscosities within temperature operating ranges in the 3.0.   There are even more surprises, so just go watch it.

      Weird click noise when revving my truck?

      By JimmyB4 · Posted

      Hello Guys I'm new to the form,         I just put a 7-inch Rough Country lift on my 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.3 and I also put a Borla exhaust on it. But I noticed when I'm in park or in neutral and then I rev my truck up really quick there is a bad click noise and I think it's coming from the motor somewhere. Anyways I got a video of it I will attach below I was just wondering if you guys think its rod knock or lifter tick or something like that because I know the AFM kind of made the lifters weak on these trucks.       Thanks!!!!!
