Service StabiliTrak, Service Traction Control, ABS Light Chevy Silverado, Avalanche, Tahoe, Suburban

- A few months ago my cruise control started intermittently working. Then my StabiliTrak, Traction Control, and ABS failed. Changing the brake switch didn't solve the problem so the next step was to look at the wheel speed sensors. This may help you because the Silverado, Avalanche, Tahoe, and Suburban are all pretty much the same.
Would have been nice to see what you were testing.
The ends he's touching the connector to the sensor
Pretty obvious
AGREED, was just going to make a comment then saw this one, great video but can't see a thing the leads from meter are going to.
He unplugged the abs wheel sensor from the harness where its mounted to the frame. He then inserted the multimeter test leads into the connector. With the meter set on ohms, he measured the resistance of the wheel sensor. No resistance indicates a shorted or bad sensor.
@americanpatriot2999 no resistance showed a bad sensor!
Thank you for making this video I think you honestly just saved me a couple hundred dollars by taking it to the shop and I can do this myself
Wow, I finally found the right video! I was using my 4WD on my 2007 Chevy Z71 and was getting stuck so I was trying to shift into 4 Lo and these lights came on, I turned off the truck and turned it back on and was able to get unstuck. But also I’ve heard a bad abs speed sensor can cause an issue with brake pedal going to the floor at low speeds because the ABS turns on because of a bad sensor ! Thanks for the video!
Best of luck. Let me know how it goes.
I watched all the videos because I had Traction Control Off, Stabilitrak, Check Engine Light, Cruise quit working,
took longer to crank. Random misfire codes....When I finally got to the truck, I added about 4 oz. of brake fluid
ALL problems went away.
lol, the ole’ brake fluid will do it every time!!!
Ummm. You know it’s a ground wire issue and the grounds are right above it is two. They are rusted out. I just fixed this. It’s not the OHM test lol. You treated the same so I’m not sure what you showing but it was interesting?? Either way. You have the ground location in the video. It runs up near the wheel fender. Goodluck, I’m sure it popped right back in, clean up that metal or run a ground to the block. Good stuff. I did it all day the other day.
Had the same issues….. I replaced the right front sensor and the hub assembly on my 2011 Suburban 1500... still had the lights and the "C0035 right front wheel speed sensor" code...
Replacing the left front wheel speed sensor fixed the issue... How frustrating...
Thanks to @ScarabChris for posting “GM truck like a Tahoe, Escalade, ect and it says "C0035 right front wheel speed sensor" then it's WRONG! I replaced the left front and the problem vanished!”......
Hey man just wanted to say thank you very much for this video You saved me a lot of time and money by knowing what to check and how to check it
0:02 1:46
I have 06 Trailblazer, scanner shows PCM power control module code P0856 “Traction control torque request circuit”, every now and then I get service traction control scrolling across the dash, any thoughts where to start?
This just happened to me once before with the abs lights and it was the brake pedal sensor. Now to my traction control light comes on and the truck is running like crap, ware the power of the truck goes down, but i also have knocking noise now. Bringing it in to mechanic tomorrow, we'll see. I do want him to check my ground wire and see if it needs to be cleaned. I just don't understand why the knocking sound with maybe a bad sensor? My oil was low but not all the way and i added oil before i left. I will check the brake fluid.
Good luck!
Did you find anything out?
What was the issue?
So on the new Sensors you should just get a “1” which basically means the sensor is not grounding itself out? I’m confused because other videos I watch led said on 200 resistance in ohms meter it should read a high number. When testing “good new sensors” I’m getting the number “1” on my meter as well. I believe I do have a bad abs module as I have verified my body harness connectors are working and no bad wiring
Great video…
I have a 2007 Yukon 5.3 and this is on and off in my dash…
Service traction control
Service stabilitrack
Service park assistant
Service tire monitor system
Thank you. Most likely the Service traction control and Stabilitrack are linked to the same problem. Best of luck and let us know what you find.
@@tommygun5.3 I tried the sensor as your video says.. but no luck.. wha else could it be.? 😬😬
Im.having this same issue with my truck
Did you ever find the issue I get the same exact messages
@@JaeSweezy yes. And all related to the same issue.. angle sensor. Goes on the steering wheel column
So there should be a 1 or zero reading for it to be a good sensor?
Both of my lights have been on for at least a year and about a week ago. I started getting a noise from the left front wheel and within a week I don’t dare drive it anymore. I know I have to change the wheel bearing could that sensor have been smart enough to realize That that wheel wasn’t spinning the same speed as the rest of them because of bearing friction? I’ll find out when I change the bearing.❤️🔥🇺🇸 thanks for your video turned on the lights for me
Your ABS light coming on is a good indicator that your bearing is going bad. Good luck.
Thanks for the video, I have a 07 suburban same issue no abs issues though, mine says service traction control and service stabilitrak, just came on while i was driving.
did you find the issue. Im having the same issue on a same truck. 07 suburban please help.
I also have a 2007 Chevy Suburban and this warning about stable track and traction control started showing about a week after I got four brand new tires and 1 month prior to that I had brand new rear brakes but intended to get the front brakes done but I was told to junk the car by my housemate who told me before I actually was introduced to him that my four tires belonged on his 2004 Chevy truc. He told me it had the wrong battery in it even though it was just put in 3 weeks before from the dealership in St George Utah and so he took it out and he said he threw it in the trash because it was too small to go into my 2007 Suburban and also told me to have it towed to the junkyard because it had a 120,000 miles on it I already spent $30,000 on a brand new paint job and of course all door handles replaced inside and out brand new windows and windshield brand new hood because a meteor hit it and all of the leather seats are basically brand new. Hey strategically parked it right under a tree that has strange glue droppings and millions of birds that have completely covered my brand new paint job in birdshit so now I cannot open the doors because the bird crap has glued them shut and of course been suicidal since I haven't been able to leave the house in 3 and 1/2 years. H e not only disabled my vehicle but he disabled my body as well at least 150 times with broken bones etcetera
Mine has those lights on but my dash turns off and ac stops blowing cold air i changed the bcm but it wasnt that. Once the lights come on and i turn off my truck i struggle to turn it on . I wait like 30 minutes and it turns on without any codes till i start driving again
I changed all my sensors brakes checked fuses and they were good but the abs and traction control is still on.any idea? My GMC canyon only has 65 k miles
Ive seen your video i order all the sensors for my 2011 chevy silverado i replace the rear ones since they were all beat up and the wires were in really poor condition. I have not yet change the front ones. When i change them i will do it ill let you know the outcome and share my experience doing the change. Thank you very helpful video i choose this way instead of changing the one on the stearin wheel.
Good luck. Let us know.
Hello again Friend i actually change all my speed sensor. If i had done what you told me and check every single one, all i had to do was just change one sensor which it was the driver side was the one that wasn’t working because it was broken. I change every single one of them because all Of the other ones were crusty and deteriorating that will avoid in the near future the same issue and all i pay was $28 for both the front ones and $25 for the rear one on amazon. I will upload a video soon with my experience thank you for your video extremely helpful.
@@Cmanana1 I'm glad it worked out in the end.
If both my sensors give no readings then they both good ?
@@robertelizondo8118 I suggest testing all 4.
great vid i have the same problem right front cant wait to get them abs lights off foreverr lol
I recently discovered this nightmare.
Bought what turned out to be a bad tank of supreme gas ... It was contaminated with water.
20 min after the fill up, my engine started sputtering, misfiring etc.
I drive a Chevy Express 3500 6.0 liter. The next morning the check engine light came on and the "Service Stabilitrac/Traction control" message appeared.
I knew immediately that I had a load of water in my tank.
This caused my transmission to start hard shifting into first gear when coming to a stop, my engine to excessively hestitate and balk at shift points, and it completely shut down my stabilitrac safety features.
Chevy is CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT !!! in programming this mayhem into their ECU 😠
After several doses of HEET, two bottles of Sea Foam and 2 tanks of Shell gas, the water was passed through my system. And the check engine light and stabilitrac/traction control messages cleared. YUP...IT WAS JUST WATER IN THE FUEL!!!
I feel sorry for the people who are not experienced with automotive mechanics. I suspect that thousands of chevy and gmc owners have been fleeced at the dealership for assorted uneeded repairs.
Shame to GM for programming this garbage!!!👎👎👎
I'm glad you were able to get it straightened out.
@@tommygun5.3 THANKS Tommy 👍✌
Thanks for the video. I guess I know what I'm doing this weekend.😁
Good luck
Can this problem be dangerous? I ask bc my the traction control light came on my 2007 Tahoe in December 2020 while driving approximately 45 mph. Barely ran off the road while trying to figure out the problem. ( not completely only my right tires approximately an inch or 2 in the grass) I clearly remember riding slowly and did not jerk the vehicle. Did as my dad always taught me never jerk the wheel ride it slowly. Have pics of the grass and distance . It’s not an area you would drive over 35 to 45mph. When all 4 tires made contact with pavement I lost total control of the vehicle. To this day I am completely baffled how it was possible. There was no gaining control and watched as I headed into the woods/trees on the opposite side of the road. It was a horrific accident and thankfully I’m still alive. I can’t help but wonder to this day what happened to the vehicle. I know the thought anyone would have is I overcorrected. I know I didn’t and have pics to prove it. It felt like something went wrong with the Tahoe. It’s too late for me, but if this is something that could possibly cause the vehicle to loose control I want to prevent anyone else from what happened to me. Thank God I was alone. I was driving to pick up my daughter when this accident occurred. I know nothing about the stability light and traction light, but did come on and it was in the winter where I live. No ice and grass was damp, but road supposedly dry.
Nice video. I am having the exact issue on my 2014 Sierra. I have the stabilitrak error along with the traction control light and the ABS light. What’s weird is that it comes and goes. I could have the lights in the morning and in the afternoon they are gone. Next time I get the warning lights I’m going to check my sensors like you did. Just one question, 0 ohms means the sensor is okay right?
That's correct. Best of luck.
Mr. Del Aguila,, Where you able to determine the intermittent problem?
@@tommygun5.3 yes, my issue was the passenger side wheel hub sensor was shot. I went to Autozone and purchased a new sensor which fixed my issue.
Was your needles on the dashboard going crazy on yours?
@@menazco.4396 not that I recall. I don’t have the truck anymore though. I sold it. But after replacing the correct sensor it never did it again.
I was just driving and the stabilitrak and and control service came up out of no where. 2013 Chevy Silverado 1500
Man I hope this is my problem 🙏🏼 glad I found your video 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Good luck! Let us know how you fixed it.
thank you:) need to check mine tomorrow, what's that part you used? from autozone
Hi guys I had the same problem with my truck. I took it to the mechanic and it was my Accelerator Pedal Sensor . Once I replace the part the truck started working .
I believe I saw a recalibration fix for that. Ign on step on gas pedal 3 times ign off.
Thanks for the great video. I have the same problem with Cadillac Escalade ESV 2016.in raining, few lights get ON, traction, ABS,and the steering gets harder even undeliverable. Do you think these are the same issue and can be fixed by changing sensors?
I have same issues
first check oil level
i always see this on my tahoe 2007 and when i check oil is very low , i add oil and everything ok
Can you show where on the plug you measuring reistance?
Inside the plug of the sensor are two metal connectors. Place each prong of your tester on those connectors.
My verano did this. Then 0420 code right after crazy shit. I put new top spark plug and so far so good. No code or crazy wrench’s showing up on the screen.
I'm only getting a service stability on mine. Not service stability+ABS light. Could it be something different?
I would still start with checking the wheel sensors.
Hi, have same issue. Service stabilitrac, service 4x4 and intermittently throws abs light. Only thing is when it throws these codes or lights it wont start at all. Pop battery wait 20 minutes truck starts and drives, couple hrs or several days/weeks till codes go again and wont start. Speed sensors you think?
@@Hynes98Caper I honestly am not qualified to answer that one. Maybe try a reputable repair shop. God speed
I have the same problem with my 2011 Silverado I have replaced everything one could imagine. Still have the same issue. Just took it to a shop. If anyone has any ideas let me know. Thanks
@@zolilaporte7211 There is a sensor on your steering column that might need replacing. This is a known problem on Chevy. Part is about $90.00 if you look on CZcams, it will show you how to replace it.
The '1' is infinite resistance , not "0"
Otherwise very handy!
Is this what you are wanting to see for a good sensor??
Did a brake pad replacement and nowadays service stabila trac So 0 ohms when sensors are good?
Correct, that's what I got.
2009 Chevy Silverado wheel speed sensor replacementl
I changed a hub bearing now i have all abs stabilitrak and traction control on brand new hub bearing
Check your connections and the brake fluid level
Same here
Abs,Trac off,serv vehicle soon light on..connect obd..turn key to on position..lights on..no codes???
@@starglider65 I don't know which scanner you're using. The one you have may only be looking for engine codes. The more expensive scanners can do read more codes. Good luck.
@@tommygun5.3 I also have a serv vehicle soon lite..still no code coming up
Can you confirm one thing? When you tested the new sensor on the right front and the lights went away, was the sensor installed in the wheel hub or just hanging? I ask because I just did wheel hub bearing assemblies on my 2008 Escalade. I had no issues with the ABS and Traction before. But with the new hubs and sensors I get the C0035 code which indicates a fault in the right front wheel speed sensor. Just to be sure I didn't get a bad sensor in the new hub I put the original sensor in that I knew to be working and I still can't get rid of the dummy lights even after clearing the codes with the scan tool. In short I want to know if the lights clear even with the sensor NOT installed in the hub. I want to be sure the ABS ring in the new hub isn't bad causing the issue. If not, then I must have a bad wire somewhere up stream from where the sensor plugs in. But damn I didn't go past that plug.
Just hanging.
@@tommygun5.3 Perfect thanks!!!!! Now I can be sure I can test without replacing the entire bearing hub assy again. LOL.
Ok my issue is fixed. FYI if you have a scan tool on a late model GM truck like a Tahoe, Escalade, ect and it says "C0035 right front wheel speed sensor" then it's WRONG! I replaced the left front and the problem vanished!
@@ScarabChris 🤠 You rock..!!!! Your are so right on.... I replaced the right front sensor and the hub assembly on my 20110 Suburban 1500... still had the light and the "C0035 right front wheel speed sensor" code... Replacing the left front wheel speed sensor fixed it... How frustrating... Thanks for posting......
I have a 2010 Silverado same lights came on after the rear passenger tire I had a blowout on it and them lights came on afterwards trying to figure out what happened here
Any luck figuring it out yet?
It can be a bad spark plug,maf so on and so on just a heads up guys
Magnetic band inside hub bearing broken was our problem...
🤔🤔🤔 So you put a metal clip connected to a strange read device and you touch it to the tire. What is this supposed to do is it testing the amount of tread on the tire ??? That notification came on my panel after I got four brand new tires and it started making a weird noise and quickly vibrate left and right when I would press on the gas pedal an attempt to turn left into a parking lot. Quit driving it right after that because my housemate told me I needed to take it to a junkyard even though it only had $120,000 Mi on it and I am extremely gentle on my vehicles no hard stops and no heavy pressing on the gas pedal and so now I really want to get it fixed because I've been waiting three and a half years for his mechanic to give him a call back which I'm guessing he probably doesn't even have a mechanic because he was really angry that I paid to have it towed to the Chevy dealer cuz he told me that people at the Chevy dealer don't know anything about Chevrolet suburbans. Then he kept taking the battery out so I could never get it to the dealer myself 😢
Are you supposed to get a reading on ohms or not? You aren't clear about this in the video, and you show the test for the new sensor when it's not plugged into anything, but you don't show or say anything about the ohms reading when you have it installed and connected to the wire it connects to. I just tested mine and I have a .538 coming up on mine. So, what am I supposed to be getting?
Thank you for your question. A good sensor had zero ohms. Hope that helps.
when the stabili link and traction control light came on, did the truck start running like shit? My yukon runs great until the lights come on. its intermittent. thanks
No, my truck ran fine when the lights came on. Good luck
Hey I changed the break sensor ,maf sensor , netural safety switch. And transmission speed sensor. And I still keep getting traction control . 08 Chevy Tahoe ltz what else should I change their is no abs light on and the backup camera does not work and you can't see what geae your in until I clear the codes .
Posable the steering wheel position sensor.
@@tommygun5.3 won't that have specific engine code
@zu1502 that will not show up on a standard $20 OBD2 engine scanner. Better scanners can pull up codes for body, 4x4, and ABS.
I don't have an ABS light on would it be the same thing as your video is showing
I would encourage you or someone else to use a good OBD2 scanner for diagnostic; not a cheap $20 one. The BlueDriver works great for me.
2012 is doing this put new ones on both sides and still have the same issue.
Did you change the rear sensors also or just the front two?
@@tommygun5.3 No just the 2 front
@@Allthingsjilld I just read in the service manual that low break fluid could also cause warning lights. Possibly check your break fluid. If that's okay then I would look closer at the rear wheel sensors.
@@tommygun5.3 ok will check. Thank you!! 😊
Thank you for this video
I have a question did your truck stay in park and didn’t go into gear cause this problem ? Cause I got the same problem and I can’t get out of park
That sounds like a different issue. Best of luck
@@tommygun5.3 found the problem brake light switch man I didn’t know things that simple can cause big problems made me go nuts for 3 days
I'm going to try this
Can grounding issues cause this
My ABS traction control is blinking also?
Any clue?
Check the ABS fuse. Pull the trouble code from the OBD2.
havin this issue too
I have the same problem with mine, but mine goes on and off
Likely one of the sensors are going bad. A scanner should help identify which one. Good luck
Put brand new spark plugs wires and doesn't fixed my problem
Tried unscrewing mine and it was so tight that I stripped it. Can't get it out now. Any suggestions?
I would try using an easy out. Possibly replace the whole thing. Best of luck.
@@tommygun5.3 Thanks so much for responding. I think I'm just gonna replace the whole thing.
I have the same problem, except my engine power is reduced to low. I went to autozone and they said it was my accelerator pedal sensor. Changed it but the message keeps coming on. Maybe it could be the wheel speed sensors?
I have the same problem like you. Tell me if you took care of it. Curious to know what it was.
never trust an autozone diagnosis
@@bklynsazon5478 I did actually. Like the guy under me said, “never trust an autozone diagnosis” I changed my throttle bottle out with a new one and returned my the accelerator pedal sensor since it wasn’t the problem. Haven’t had that problem anymore!
Spark plugs
@@craigerz02323 that’s what I did. So far so good.
Having this same problem on my Buick Enclave, already changed brake switch and codes still on!
What year on the enclave
What this part is call so I have that problem with my 2007 Chevy avalanche

Thank you so much
How much did the part cost to replace it.
$26.99
I wish you show us exactly what to hook up the meter to.
Thanks for the input. The two terminals in the plug(s).
Is it and sensor ? Or tire sensor ?
Speed sensor
Mine stayed on after changing my struts... Not sure why?!
Sounds like possibly a wire or connector.
Did u use original struts or did u convert from air ride struts to conventional? If so you have to wire in resistors
Same thing happened to me. The sensors are magnetic, so they pick up any little metal pieces. Take them out and clean them off really well, and stick them back in. That works for me. Good luck
So is it normal my car wont start and shows a 🔐 lock saids traction control what can i do to make it go on? Please help
Did you try to disconnect the battery to reset the computer? May not work but worth a try.
@@tommygun5.3 thankyou so much i actully ended up buying a new battery from autozone and is good now 🤦🏻♀️
Meu cruze está dando dtc c056d
OK, but why/how would a bad hub NOT throw a code for said problem? I have this issue and NO ABS/speed sensor codes...
Great question!
Nice testing !
Thank you.
Nice nice well done ✔
Mine 09 2wd those same lights plus brake like flash multiple times in a row sometimes it doesn't do it all but after a little while driving it it's like it goes in limp mode and doesn't allow me to shift and it kicks down to like first gear sometimes I can cycle the key sometimes I'd unplug the battery and it'll go away and sometimes it comes back on right away and sometimes not for weeks at a time anybody else have that trouble and what should I go about to fix the problem
Sounds like it's going into limp mode. Possibly try BlueDriver OBDII scanner. It's what I use.
@@tommygun5.3 yeah that part is noticeable but ill just have to check the abs sensors bc dont have problem with brakes or anything just while driving some days an others just truck sitting idle lol typical generic made Chevy LOL
Would this be the same on a 2wd?
I'm wondering the same thing cuz mine will even go into limp mode and won't let it shift until the lights go off sometimes it works fine and other times it don't
It was a Ford you had to pull out the mud wasn't it ???
Lol
