Here is a link to the vacuum caps amzn.to/2iYErDz ( affiliate link)
Thank you so much! Saved my problem. I changed spark plugs on my 2008 Saturn Outlook. After the job was finished, I found the vac cap on the ground, having absolutely no idea what it was. Obviously I knocked it off changing the rear bank of the plugs without knowing it. Thereafter the car gave me the "service traction control" message as well as engine error "bank 1 too lean", and "bank 2 too lean". I am glad I didn't throw the cap away. Thank you again for posting his message!
This seems to have worked! My vacuum cover was just cracked slightly, so my traction control / Stabilitrak error would only kick in at highway speeds. THANK YOU for the quick and easy solution! Can't believe it was that easy! :)
Great find and help for my code problem. Thanks for the help!
Just found mine. Had P0171 and P0174 codes and the annoying Stabilitrak and Traction Control Off message going off numerous times during any drive. Mine was a broken vacuum line that goes between two sensors on the right side near the firewall AFTER you take off the cowling. (sorry, didnt look up which ones) The hose was a rigid hose and the barbs on the sensors had blue o-rings. The split in the line was impossible to see but I felt it with my finger on the backside facing the firewall. Replaced the line, cleared the codes and no issues. ** Note, I havent reviewed the stabilitrak/traction control functions but this fix and the others Ive read lead me to believe the vacuum level to the brake system is KEY to the stabilitrak operating properly. This means its not only an electronic sensor that can malfunction. I had a hose lying around so this fix was FREE!
Also, if your running lean it is because you have too much air or not enough fuel in the cylinder. Another clue to look for a vacuum leak.
Honestly man if I could buy you a beer I'd buy you 24 that was my mom's truck and we can find out what happened after my dad fixed it and it turns out that he just threw the cap thanks a lot!
Perfect fix. You are awesome. Worked like a charm. Thanks
That fixed mine (Acadia) I changed spark plugs and must have knocked that thingy off when I was reaching around the back side of the engine. Had the exact symptoms and codes, ran and shifted like shit, and putting a cap on that hose fixed everything. Thanks!!!
Thank you very much! It worked, also fixed a temperature sensor error. I had this issue after I changed the struts. Super so happy, so far no more errors.
This is what is going on with me after having my strut done mechanic refuse even
Thanks, this works and your the greatest. Have a good day
OK wow is all I am going to say for point out this fix and giving a quick video.. Of all the videos I have ever watched this was the most useful..
Thank you 🙏 I was missing the To I just saw you Channel thank you thank you thank you
Dude you are the shit. I looked for a fix for this for awhile and then i watched your video and put a new cap and problem is fixed .......... Thank you so much
Definitely worked for me! How does vacuum affect the stability system? I'm just trying to get the science behind it. Thanks for the video!
My 07 outlook doesn’t have a cap in that location but a tube so ig I’ll try to see where that leads thanks for the help.
I already cleared the codes!
Worked for me thanks!
This helped out for the stabilitrak so thank you! I also had the traction control light and abs light come occasionally too so I had to take of my driver side tire and pull out my wheel abs sensor and clean it and that cleared that right up now my suv is running full force!
How did it feel becore
@@joelanzo3054 it felt like there wasn’t much power I thought maybe a few cylinders weren’t firing but I wasn’t sure why. That little valve plug fixed it. It blew my mind
Thanks, its work for me. 🎉🎉🎉
Thank YOU TRYN THIS TMROW.
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
It didn't work for me 🥴🥴
I'll try it in the morning. How do I clear codes. I hope it's that easy money is tight. Thanks.
my saturn aura is having the same issue, i dont have stabilitrak though, think it could be the same issue?
I have a 2008 Outlook , I replaced the cap but it’s still doing the same thing . I’ve replaced the whole suspension and it’s still doing the same thing . When I drive it , it shakes and vibrates . Any ideas on what else could be causing this issue ?
I have a 07 Saturn outlook and when I go to accelerate it gets a bit shaky then all them lights turn right on but sometimes it will drive fine like i would try to speed up from a stop or a turn and it would have problems accelerating
Mine is doing the same thing , I have a 2008 Outlook . I replaced the vacuum cap but it’s still doing the same thing . I’ve replaced the whole suspension and still doing the same thing . I don’t know what it is .🤷🏻♀️
X L Ent! Thanks. NOw to check the same for my cruise control.
I have a Saturn outlook 08 and it stutters when I accelerate on low speeds any clue ?
As soon as i changed my purge valve on my 2007 saturn outlook this popped up 😐 why??..
Is this the same for 2007 can't find
Did you make flashlight
I have spent over $1000 trying to fix this issue, something about a wire loose or something, car runs fine, comes on intermittently, will look at this and will follow up if it works..
Eric Peterson any update?
Too lazy to do it yet, but I am gonna try
So, it's been a year eric Petersen you still lazy or did it work? Lol
I have the same problem and did this but 2 days later it started doing the same thing again. I was at the beach when It happened and didn't reset the codes but it turned the codes off by itself so I really thought it was good but then on the way back home it started doing it again and now its been 3 more days of this. it only does it when I'm not pushing the gas pedal though. as soon as I push the gas the light will cut off. do you have any suggestions? I'm all out of ideas
Jay Perdue reset the codes manually
I have now but it still does it. Now there is 2 more codes saying bank 1 and bank 2 is too lean. Is there any more vacuum plugs somewhere?
Jay Perdue bank 1 and 2 is your o2 sensors before and after cat
Jay Perdue but those codes could come from a vacuum leak. I recommend getting a pressure test done they can put smoke in the line and find the leak if that is the problem. If not u will need a diagnostic test done
Another issue with these vehicles is the sunroof drains clogging and leaking into the car. On my sisters it caused water to get into the dash and into electrical connectors including the computer. Causing shorts and loss of power. Make sure no water is under the carpet it also gets into door wiring. If u open your door there is a harness from the door to the body. The clip folds up and it pulls right out. Water gets in there and shorts wiring causing major issues
Did that vehicle have only a stabilitrak code? Mine will randomly say engine power reduced, service stabilitrak, service throttle, service traction control. It will not let me just start the vehicle back up, it will say starter disabled. If I turn key off, open door to let all power go off, it will let me restart the car after 30 seconds, sometimes a little longer. The check engine light will be on, but after I start it and turn it off a few times, the check engine light will go away until it does the same process again. I have taken it to two dealerships, and still have not found out how to fix it. Everyone is as stumped as I am. I have tried a few things, cleaning grounds by fuse box in engine compartment, and filled brake fluid to max level ( two things I saw other people say will fix it) and it cut off on me 10 minutes after I did those things. I do not really have the option to get rid of the vehicle at this point without losing thousands of dollars I really do not have. This car has been having certain codes pop up for a long time. Started out with the first one saying service air bag, the that went away. The I got the service stabilitrak, but it never turned off on me. Now that doesn't pop up unless it turns that whole car off on me and says the details I listed above. You may not be able to help, but I figured it was worth a shot. Thanks.
Michael Iannaco mine had stabilitrak and traction control but the car still ran it just ran like shit
Michael Iannaco is it worth getting it fix or trade it in
Juan Ramirez mine was stabilitrak and traction control and that cap fixed it
TheRealSleezy that didn’t help. I had to sell it and buy a new car
Juan Ramirez sorry that happened to you I would have researched it for you but I just saw your message today
how do you reset codes
Love Yourself you need a diagnostics scanner....free to use at auto parts store. sometimes disconnecting battery for a few minutes works
Breathe.......!
