Hello,

So first off love my truck had almost 0 issues with it. just clocked over 270,000 KMs. i do all my own maintenance.

So Service stability Track come on intermittently - no service engine light has ever come on. only the triangle with stability track and traction control disabled come on.

So because no engine code has ever been lit. it reduces the amount of issues my issue is.

If I shut the truck off, start it again, all is good, stability track has no issues. So its very intermittent.

1. First I replaced the Steering Wheel position sensor - which for my 2009 truck is a discontinued part - So i was forced to replace with a 2010-2013 Part which all the comments said that many people had done this with no issues. drove a few days thought it was fixed. then it came back on one day.

2. So this time i jacked up the front end to look at the ABS sensors. This is when i noticed the Drivers side wheel had play up and down....so great I was happy as it must be the wheel bearing causing the Stability track issue

3. Replaced Both front wheel Hub assembly's, also replaced CV axels as i had torn boots.

4. drove a few days, no issues. thought it was fixed. of course it came back on

5. i have watched all videos, and read many forums. most issues relating to this will light an engine code. Which I have never had an engine code - TPS, Misfires, bad coil, bad ABS sensor....ect they all lite engine codes.

6. tested all 4 wheel ABS sensors with OHM meter. Seem good. Looked at ABS system connections all look good. Wires all physically look good

7. tested Brake control switch, its working fine. Cruise works so cant be that. I have replaced this about 1 year ago.

8. runs great no power issues, drives like a new truck still.

 

So I am at a loss to what to do now.

other than take it to a dealer to have the LOGs read, maybe it will tell me.

my code reader does not read the logs, only engine codes.

 

Anyone have any ideas on what to check next?

You may be throwing money/parts in the wrong direction. Tons of different trouble codes will give the Traction Control/Stabilitrak warning message, including engine codes. 

 

You need a GM dealer or someone with a better scan tool.

    • I just brought home a 2020 GMC 1500 Denali.  She has 53K miles on her and I want to change out the fluids over the next few weeks.  I see the diff covers don't have drain plugs.  Any suggestions where I can pick up front and rear diff covers with drain plugs?   Thanks,   Bob
    • Well, the dealership got the compressor and installed it. Air at the vents seems nice and cold as it should be. The service manager said the repair has a two year warranty and unlimited mileage. Hopefully I don't have to use it. The dealership i went to was one where I bought my 2014 half ton silverado. In 10 years and 168k miles on the truck anything I needed done and two small recalls they were always very good to me. Not a huge dealer either. I think they treat people well because they want you to come back. I have dealt with a different dealer that was too big to care about an individual. Just my two cents.
    • Hi All, I operate my 2021 3500 SLT most of the time with the tailgate off and in a crate because I have a slide-in camper. However, at least once a year, I take the camper off and put the tailgate back on. Recently I installed the tailgate, but had a hard time getting the connector bail to swing to the fully latched position. The connector seems to fully seat, and everything works, but the bail doesn’t swing to fully latched position.  It swings almost there but stops and I am afraid to push it any harder.    Does anyone have any advice on cleaning or lubrication or anything else I should be doing?  i know how to properly operate the connector. During the time the tailgate and connector are off, i have a double plastic bag over the truck connector secured with rubber bands to keep it clean, but it still had some dust in it this time when I blew it out with compressed air. I didn’t want to spray it with anything other than air without doing some research. Thanks. 
    • There are a lot of spammer's that do that, quote something and add some commentary to make it seem legit, but modify the quoted text a bunch making sure when posted it's long enough to be "click to expand", and either immediately insert a spam link, or come back after some time and edit it to add the spam link.
    • Hello @jaszr2 Do you have a link for the item? I put a replacement bumper on my truck and consequently had to relocate the shutters. I studied on them a while, and figured if you left a couple key blades, you could get most of the airflow with probably no throwing codes.
