By the way im sure people dont really go mudding or use a truck for what its meant for. When people like you and me come accross certain situations off the pavement we notice small things. Like im having to replace my rear brake pads prematurely. I look forward to performing this modification. Thanks
Had this happen to me when I was heading up a local mountain trail some call "Red Grade." It's steep and that day it was icy. Thought I would be safe and sound by holding the traction control switch until it read that Stabilitrak was off. Started to make my way up the hill only to have to dangerously back all the way down. Thanks for these videos. VERY HELPFUL!
henry Wahlberg honestly most people don't watch the other videos linked to this one! This bypass switch I installed has saved me from getting stuck in mud holes and snow drifts so many times! Plus the burnouts are cool lol
Nathan Schild it's honestly the best thing, I can do it on the fly when I hit a mud hole or snow drift and just pin it to get out. Then flip the switch it's back on.
Amazing series of videos. I have a 2007 Chevy 1500 LTZ 4x4 with a 6.5" Zone suspension lift and 35s with the same problem. I haven't gotten stuck yet, but I've come close - only because the truck was fighting me by killing the revs when I needed good wheelspin. I'm just trying to get to remote hunting and fishing destinations, not trying to get stuck. It really pisses me off when I see that stupid traction light flashing after I already took the time to turn it all the way off. Anyway, I'm mostly done with the install. It's past midnight, so I'll finish tomorrow. I just wanted to take the time to let you know that I really appreciate the info you've shared. FWIW, my fuse was #10. Pulled it with the truck running and the correct lights came on immediately. Cut the big red wire (with the fuse back in place) and they came right back on. I've spliced it and gotten it (and some rear aux LED switch wires) through the firewall. Tomorrow I just have to hook up the switches and run power back to the lights. Thanks Jeff17s!
my 07 avalanche does the same thing.it will go on and off while I'm driving down the road. if it's on it will shift into gear hard then it will go off then come back on down the road. I replaced the bracket peddle switch didn't work. any ideas. please help thank.
That’s great!!! I’m trying to figure out how to bypass a 2016 gmc savanah. It looks like they got rid of the simple fuse. It appears to be tied into something else now.............
I found on my 2012 Silverado 1500 the only way the stabilitrac doesnt kick in is when I push and hold for 10 seconds then also put it into manual mode. When you leave it in drive even after you push and hold the button itll still kick in but in manual mode it will not kick in.
It looks like I'm going to have to do the same thing to my 2006 Yukon Denali because my traction active light comes on and reduces horsepower exactly like your video and messes me up on the highway or even on the red light but when I switch traction control off no that stuff happens but my stability is also off not a bad idea
2011 tahoe ltz traction control and stabilizing light on. This happened after we put new wheels and tires and realignment done. Also around the same time we put a cold air intake on it. We had no issues with the warning lights until we did all that. We put it on a coder and it's saying C0253 and C0710. Again no issues with the warning lights until we did the add on to the tahoe. Any suggestions on why/what may have caused it. I cleared the codes but after driving a little while it came back on.
Jeff17s What do you advise me to do and or do to possibly fix it. Ive gotten to know the manager pretty good at the Big O Tires that we use that did it.
let's say I don't go off road .my light turns on for like no really good reason n so does the little (!) for the brake . how do I just turn it off the button for the stibilatrack n the traction control button isn't working properly. so it keeps popping up for no really good reason. how do I completely just turn the light off . n is it a bad thing. to have it off
Do you know what would cause a service traction control & service stabilitrak light followed by a rough 1-2 shift on my 2007 6.0L 1500? The light usually comes on at around 30+ MPH or when I'm coasting. It also turns off by itself but usually comes back every couple miles. I've cleaned the MAF & Throttle Body with no luck.
Hi,im having problems with my 2011 chevy..I've been having problems over the last 4 yrs with my dash shutting off while im driving including headlights going out..My resent problem is i can't go over 20 mph,it says engine hot a/c turned off,left RR tire low,change engine oil soon,engine over heating ideal engine,engine power reduced,service track control,service stabilitrack..I've been taking it to the dealership and paying and arm and a leg for them to tell me nothings wrong..Do you know whats wrong?
I just cut the thicker 14ga red wire, made a continuous circuit through the toggle switch so that when I run the highway with everything on it still has the fuse as safety backup, flipping the switch simply cuts off the electricity to the fuse. Best thing I ever did, I have been stuck on a few occasions as a direct result of the computer not letting me fully pin it haha
How did you get the rocker switch to light up when the fuse is pulled? Mine goes off when the fuse is not getting power. Basically the reverse of yours. My fear is that the small LED will kill the battery.
Howdy Bud, I found your video on one of the forums. Is pulling the fuse the exact same as the switch you wired? I went to wire in the switch but wanted to test the idea first, by pulling the fuse. I pulled the fuse, but no cel or TC light came on. In your video you can see the lights come on basically confirming the tc and abs is inoperable.
Yes, watched your 3 vids, bought the wire and a switch, figured Id pull the fuse first ( #9 labled ABS ) no lights at all. Could still disable and able TC and S. Didn't move fwd as I would think pulling the fuse would make the same lights come on. Its a 2010 gmc 2500hd
Its weird, I would think, if you pull the abs fuse on any of them that the light would come on. I thought maybe just needed to cycle a few times so I drove around a bit and no lights came on. I know the TC light and the rest work as when I turn the key to on, they will all light up. This boggles me.
2014 Silverado, what should I do? I needed this done before I bought the truck. I hate feeling like I spent 35000 on a truck built for a kindergartner.
sir, i have a question why is my gmc sierra 1500 stibilitrak and service traction control lights on and sometimes when i turn it on Everytime. i try to accelerate it feels like im in neutral and it makes this big noise outside like if its hitting something i hope is not the transmission or anything like that but this happens sometimes.. thanks for your help
But in the 2013 Silverados if you hold the traction control it takes off stabilitrak and it stays off unlike the 14-18 models turning back on after 55km
But it doesn't disable it completely by holding the button down. I live in ND where we have a lot of snow and when I turn both traction control and stability, it still controls wheel speed. Mine is 3013. Traction control is a joke
I sure understand why this truck won't get through 3" of snow with winter tires on now. I pulled my fuse in the last snowstorm, works twice as well. I've had 3 2x4 fords and never had much issue in snow until this 2012 chev. Seems to have made the truck more responsive in general with fuse removed, should I just leave the fuse out, or do your toggle switch idea for snow days??
I only toggle switch it off when I am in sticky situations, or it is really difficult to get through. Do not remove it for highway driving however, as it is a great safety feature for keeping the truck from losing traction.
hi Jeff. I am having trouble with my traction control and stabilitrak light. I continuously hold the traction control button down and it still seems like the truck is stuck in 4 wheel drive. Any suggestions?
My old truck had an electrical solenoid I believe that wouldn't let my truck out of 4 wheel drive, sounds to me it's just an electrical problem, just a matter of finding which through the diagnostics the dealer can run on it.
+Jeff17s thank you so much for your help. I will call the dealership in the morning and schedule a diagnostic appointment. I will let you know what they say. Have a wonderful evening.
can you give me a detailed step by step on how you wired it? I suck at wiring. I bought a 3 prong 25A 12V lighted rocker switch 14G wire and connectors, I'm just not sure how to make the connections on the switch since you only cut one wire. positive negative and acc. I don't care if my switch lights up or not, I just want to cut the power to the fuse.
In my previous video I show which wires to splice. Make one snip about 4-6 inches down the thicker red wire from the fuse. Connect each end of the cut red wire (I used butt connector with heat shrink rubber over em) with your 14G wire, one for each end. Take both wires through the firewall to your dash. Connect them with the switch so that the light is off when the current flow to the fuse is live, and ground the switch (usually middle connection of backside of switch). This allows for regular Stabilitrak and Traction control for on highway/city use for safety reasons, and switches off when you need to hammer down when you are in some deep snow. Video for which wires here czcams.com/video/B5CYJf-myds/video.html
Try holding your traction control button about another 10 to 15 seconds after it says it's turned everything off total time about 20-25 seconds. On the Tahoe it will COMPLETELY disable traction control where if you hit the gas with your rear end up it will run 5000 rpms
My suggestion to you is to jack your tires off the ground and attempt what you say and see if it works.... I can assure you, the computer tries to override with a brake control function, power limiter etc. Once you have done this, by all means, come back and tell me how it went.
+Jeff17s you are right. My 2010 would do it after you shut off the nannies via the button. You could power through it a little on ice and snow to spin around on a snowy road or whatever. I traded that on a 2015 and the tc vses systems are so insane. You can turn everything off and still cant slide around. Stabilitrak comes back on at like 40 kph. I may have to go this route if it doesnt make the new ones go into limp mode. When i select off, i fucking want that shit off for a reason.
Howdy, I leave the STBTK and TkCtrL in the trucks I drive on all the time. My 2007 Vortec Max pissed me off right after I got the truck. (still have it). I drive in snow/ice and on roads made with frickin clay with my work trucks GMC half tons new one every 3 yrs. Since they came out with this crap I noticed that if I pump the gas peddle VERY-FAST 3 or 4 times and then pinn'er to the mat the truck will spin all the tires and get S**T happening. Then it is still working on the next corner as I reaching for my celebratory coffee sip. I shared this info with our field operators gas/oil patch and it works for them too. No need to piss around with pressing buttons or cutting wires for me. But I probably would If this didn't work. cheers
+Erica Strandberg not sure about the traverse, the Tahoe's, Sierra, Silverado, Yukon, yes. Traverse may be wired differently, but if you find the ABS fuse and bypass it then yes.
+Doug Johnson if you need a youtube video on how to wire in a simple toggle switch maybe you should think twice before messing around with your fuse box?
watch my other videos explaining it all. This one just pull the plastic dash off and install the switch that you wired into fuse #9 from under the hood
I just had my truck lifted with new shocks put on and it looks like they forgot to connect something because now my abs and stabila track stays on. Should I worry about it? now that I see this video?
I need my truck to do more than just tip toe like a nancy pants dammit. When shit gets hairy sometimes you need MORE power, not less. I'm just worried that bypassing these annoying restrictive components might mess something up. You know how cars are these days. You pull the dome light out and suddenly you need to replace the entire computer system.
Truck is wimpy on power? My Z-71 Colorado has a Vortex supercharger installed by RiPP and makes 410 rear wheel Dynoed power . 98 mph speed limiter disabled 130 mph is fast.
+Alfredo Sanchez Shouldn't be the problem, as the wheel speed sensors are proportionally sensing the spin of the tires in accordance with the computer sensing the speed of the vehicle. As you turn, the outside wheels are spinning faster than the tires on the inside of the turn. Does it only come on when you turn right or left? or both? As long as the tires are all the same size, the lift is never the problem.
Okay gentlemen I'm a chick so please don't be rude, I have a 2012 GMC Terrain with 82,023 miles on it and stablitrac/ traction control light has come on and my vehicle us constantly lossing power while driving acts Luke it doesn't want to shift. Had the get guys at my local part store run it for codes an they got a butch of them any idea how I can fix this problem without bankrupting a single mom???? Any advice would be helpful thanks again in advance.
Nice little truck in your nice little neighbor hood . You drive an under powered truck that is 1 notch above wimpy. My 2016 Colorado Z-71 2WD 3.6 is equipped with an 8 psi boost RiPP Superchargerthat bangs out 409 RWHP and that is a seriously fun as hell truck to drive. The RiPP kit is what your Colorado needs.
@@jeff17s Man I saw Tess Performance you tube showing 330 rwhp and why anyone would call these guys to get a 60 HP add o mine is a Vortex too and it takes a skilled tuner to get it right . my install got 138 extra HP . Hot paint wheels and nice big tires are cool but a Colorado with 400+ HP is something to talk about
Stop trying to show off your truck on a informational video. Nobody cares what you drive. And nowadays 400 hp is nothing that’s slow, 2019 4 banger engines will dust you. Comment when you build a 1475hp ranger.
You drive a little boy truck. I have a 2010 silverado ltz 4wd crew cab with 3.5" lift 35" tires. a cammed and tuned 6.2 liter and magna flow exhaust. I am right about 500hp to the crank. It is awesome when you have a big truck that runs like a Camaro.
Ur truck is messed. I have the same truck i turn it off and i have no tcs or anything. Mabeybprevious owner did the same thing u did but used stock switch
Nick Carver it's not. I have a '15. Turn off stabilitrac, get in mud and it will rip. I think his issue is due to lifting it off the ground. I hold the traction button for the 5 seconds and I can get through the redline and hit the governor.
T Yomama has nothing to do with it being lifted off the ground. Maybe by the 2015 models GM/chev has fixed this problem. Though you probably didn't consider the fact that it's an 09 in the video cause you're an idiot.....
By the way im sure people dont really go mudding or use a truck for what its meant for. When people like you and me come accross certain situations off the pavement we notice small things.

This is brilliant!! Instead of pulling that fuse all the time. Thank you!! Cheers
do you kknow what fuse it is?
Hell yeah dude, the traction control just gets me more stuck.
Thanks Jeff! I did this to my 2011 Suburban and works great.
snowpro90 you are the first person to get back to me after trying this. How many years has it been? How has it been for you?
Thanks this is the best explaining video I've seen so far on deleting the Stabilitrak
henry Wahlberg honestly most people don't watch the other videos linked to this one! This bypass switch I installed has saved me from getting stuck in mud holes and snow drifts so many times! Plus the burnouts are cool lol
Thanks again
So if I'm understanding correctly, cutting the traction off completely helped regain your rpm and power correct? Thanks in advance
@@blessedhands2000 it works correctly if you disconnect for ten seconds then reconnected the battery too good luck
@@blessedhands2000 Yes. The computer no longer senses the tires slipping, which reacts by braking/rev limiting/ETC.
glad I come across this site before watching thought I was gonna have to come up with a bunch of money for repairs
I love the idea of adding a switch! I'm going to do the same thing to my truck
Nathan Schild it's honestly the best thing, I can do it on the fly when I hit a mud hole or snow drift and just pin it to get out. Then flip the switch it's back on.
What years did they do that I have a 2013 2500 ltz I shut those off and I can do burnouts for days it doesn’t limit me.

Great info!!
Mine went into reduced engine power after I hit a pot hole and the wheels splipped did your go into that?
Would have been nice to see exactly how you wired it up
my 07 avalanche does the same thing.it will go on and off while I'm driving down the road. if it's on it will shift into gear hard then it will go off then come back on down the road. I replaced the bracket peddle switch didn't work. any ideas. please help thank.
I have a 07 Silverado and the stabilitytrack off came on when I drive the truck over the 60 mph do you know why its doing that...

How do you turn on 4x4 and when do you know it's off?
Where did you ground your switch at?
does this work on older Chevy impalas

+Chris Haver I definitely don't know what is wrong with yours... but is does sound like an electrical problem. sensors or shorting out

When you tap into the lines by the fuse did you splice one red wire or did you bypass the fuse all together?

At 3:15 sounds like the engine revved up kinda weird - maybe your toggle switch messes with the engine sound.
But in the 2013 Silverados if you hold the traction control it takes off stabilitrak and it stays off unlike the 14-18 models turning back on after 55km

Do you video of wiring up to the fuse
+Doug Johnson see previous video of mine on my channel, I show exactly which wire to splice and run to the dash with a switch
+Doug Johnson if you need a youtube video on how to wire in a simple toggle switch maybe you should think twice before messing around with your fuse box?
Check the brakes fluid
Ask me anything guys I am happy to explain anything as best I can.
need help how did u do that
watch my other videos explaining it all. This one just pull the plastic dash off and install the switch that you wired into fuse #9 from under the hood
I just had my truck lifted with new shocks put on and it looks like they forgot to connect something because now my abs and stabila track stays on. Should I worry about it? now that I see this video?
Tom E I would get it fixed, ABS is proven to help in braking preventing more collisions
i have a 2018 sierra 1500 denali 6.2, the fusebox does not specify the same fuse you use, can you tell me which wire is the one i need to use. thanks
I need my truck to do more than just tip toe like a nancy pants dammit. When shit gets hairy sometimes you need MORE power, not less. I'm just worried that bypassing these annoying restrictive components might mess something up. You know how cars are these days. You pull the dome light out and suddenly you need to replace the entire computer system.
Truck is wimpy on power? My Z-71 Colorado has a Vortex supercharger installed by RiPP and makes 410 rear wheel Dynoed power . 98 mph speed limiter disabled 130 mph is fast.
when I let off the gas the stabilitrack light comes off but as soon as I get on it it goes away why??
+Oscar Navarro sounds like it could be a wheel speed sensor.
How do I check of they are good or not
The dealer has specialized scanners that can pinpoint which sensor or wire. Regular OBD diagnostic trouble code scanners can't do it
So what what wires do i need to connect to a on/off switch?
Ruben Wong see the links to my other videos showing that
cool
my 2007 Chevy traction control is turning on when I make a turn why?
+Alfredo Sanchez sounds like a rear wheel sensor is going. Couldn't tell ya which one though
I forgot to tell u I lift my truck 7 inches and 20 inche rims and 35 /12 tires
Maybe that is the problem too?
+Alfredo Sanchez Shouldn't be the problem, as the wheel speed sensors are proportionally sensing the spin of the tires in accordance with the computer sensing the speed of the vehicle. As you turn, the outside wheels are spinning faster than the tires on the inside of the turn. Does it only come on when you turn right or left? or both? As long as the tires are all the same size, the lift is never the problem.
Steering wheel position sensor
Okay gentlemen I'm a chick so please don't be rude, I have a 2012 GMC Terrain with 82,023 miles on it and stablitrac/ traction control light has come on and my vehicle us constantly lossing power while driving acts Luke it doesn't want to shift. Had the get guys at my local part store run it for codes an they got a butch of them any idea how I can fix this problem without bankrupting a single mom???? Any advice would be helpful thanks again in advance.
Same problem
Hey guys I need help changing my blinker fluid
Sure if if you will show me how to reverse the ION charge in my cigarette lighter
@@jerryadkins4199 all you got to do is find the cigarette lighter fuse and turn it upside down
Phil Muheiny 😂you funny for that one
You're also supposed to lubricate your muffler bearings at the same time!
Nice little truck in your nice little neighbor hood . You drive an under powered truck that is 1 notch above wimpy. My 2016 Colorado Z-71 2WD 3.6 is equipped with an 8 psi boost RiPP Superchargerthat bangs out 409 RWHP and that is a seriously fun as hell truck to drive. The RiPP kit is what your Colorado needs.
Good for you Jerry, right on...
@@jeff17s Man I saw Tess Performance you tube showing 330 rwhp and why anyone would call these guys to get a 60 HP add o mine is a Vortex too and it takes a skilled tuner to get it right . my install got 138 extra HP . Hot paint wheels and nice big tires are cool but a Colorado with 400+ HP is something to talk about
Stop trying to show off your truck on a informational video. Nobody cares what you drive. And nowadays 400 hp is nothing that’s slow, 2019 4 banger engines will dust you. Comment when you build a 1475hp ranger.
@jerry
You drive a little boy truck. I have a 2010 silverado ltz 4wd crew cab with 3.5" lift 35" tires. a cammed and tuned 6.2 liter and magna flow exhaust. I am right about 500hp to the crank. It is awesome when you have a big truck that runs like a Camaro.
I think only left side
+Alfredo Sanchez My guess would be the rear right wheel sensor is bad. That or the computer iso sensing wheel spin when it isn't spinning.
Can I replace both sensors rear right and left sensors? Sorry for bothering u
Ur truck is messed. I have the same truck i turn it off and i have no tcs or anything. Mabeybprevious owner did the same thing u did but used stock switch
What the hell are you saying? It sounds like you said: " I wired that in to the season da my." So what the fuck is a season da my????
Haha sorry bud. Check out my other vids on rewiring how to by pass this on the fly. My accent is different for sure
I'm not buying another Chevy if this is what you have to do.
Nick Carver it's not. I have a '15. Turn off stabilitrac, get in mud and it will rip. I think his issue is due to lifting it off the ground. I hold the traction button for the 5 seconds and I can get through the redline and hit the governor.
T Yomama has nothing to do with it being lifted off the ground. Maybe by the 2015 models GM/chev has fixed this problem. Though you probably didn't consider the fact that it's an 09 in the video cause you're an idiot.....
