General Motors Service Brakes Soon on Dash - DIC - GMC Trucks - Bundys Garage

  • The service brakes soon light is illuminated on the dash of this 2007 General Motors Suburban. I wish I could say that I fixed but in the end I believe it was the brake module that has failed and causing the light on the dash.
    Owner states he has not noticed any difference in the way the brake pedal "feels" and the light come on right after the engine is started. It does not need to drive for the light to come on.
    I topped off the brake fluid reservoir (DOT 3) and that did not shut the light off. Also cleaned the ground wire for the brake module and I thought that would do it but no such luck.
    So in the end I believe it is the brake module that has failed and need to be replaced.
    Sorry I could not fix the problem in the video but it will give you a baseline of what needs to happen.

    I am sitting home without a truck because of this issue for the second week in a row. Moving from NC to SC. Sent this to my mechanic who is GREAT with hopes this will help him. I am hauling a lot with my truck but i have to trust my brakes!

    For everyone having this issue, the problem is not abs module, the trouble is the booster, and if booster has brake fluid inside, you must replace brake pump too, the VIC shows that because booster has a actuator inside, abs module activates this one right after you start vehicle, if booster vacuum sensor which is mounted the booster doesn't increase voltage (vacuum drop) abs shows that message. Actuator must have 1 ohm resistance, and unplugging the connector that comes from abs must be 12 volts between the 2 wires just for an instant right after vehicle starts.
    Before replacing anithing check trouble codes on abs module. Although for me that was the solution it could be something different to you

    I have a 2005 Cadillac escalade ext.
    I was driving other day and brake light and TC light came on.
    Dash display also read service brake system and stability system disabled.
    A minute late I went to stop and had no brakes. One of my brake lines had ruptured. I replaced the ruptured brake line along with 3 others bc they were rusted looking.
    Now that lines are replaced, brakes are bled, and master cylinder reservoir is full all of my lights are still on.
    Will these lights turn themselves off or will I have to have them reset with a scanner? It's been 2 days and they are still on.

    My vehicle is GMC Yukon slt 2011. Started facing this problem and I am still stuck with this notification. It started with the brake booster, got it changed but the message came back, then after checking it was found that there is a problem with ABS, got it changed and original ABS program was installed. I had to do a procedure of opening the booster and checking the pressure along with bleeding the brakes but, the message came back. Now what? Ground cable was also cleaned.
    The message appears after couple minutes of driving.

    I will say if you're brake fluid is between the min and max line, you shouldn't be getting the message so that's pretty obvious that's not the culprit. If it was below the min line, then maybe.

  • @chrislakous5236
    @chrislakous5236 Před 2 lety +15

    You should never top off " brake fluid ever period!!!!, if level is low there is a reason low pads leaking wheel cylinders or another issue that is causing low fluid, brake system is sealed.

    Just wanted to chime in. There is an issue with the o-ring between the master cylinder and booster. In 9 out of the 10 cars that came in with that issue, I replaced the o-ring and the customer no longer had the issue . The code if you have the scanner is C0299.. Good Luck everyone

    What kind of shop doesnt pull the codes doing diag? And you dont top off the brake fluid when you do brakes. If the fluid is low it means low pads or a leak in the system what a hack. The fluid in the reservoir is there as an over view of the health of the brake system

  • @lukeg6781
    @lukeg6781 Před 4 lety +3

    I hate when people are mechanically inclined. Do not add new brake fluid to old fluid. If you read you car owner manual, it tells you to replace DOT 3 fluid every 3 years or 30k miles. Brake fluid brakes down from clear fluid to dirty. Not many people know that you have to change brake fluid like this genius brake module shoot. Omg just throw parts at it and if that doesn't fix it throw a new vehicle at it.
