    Yes, mine comes on as well and I have also had the cruise control kick off automatically. My check tire pressure warning comes up steady, yet the tire shop has checked them twice with their only solution being a sensor as well.

    I have a 2000 Bonneville SSEi which has the stability system problem also. No other problems have occured and the car drives fine. I took it to a dealer and hooked it to a machine that read out the (ECBM) electronic brake control module is not responding. It's a dealer item only and that part cost $736.18 plus tax and labor. Looking for another answer than that. Anybody ever heard of this?

    I went to auto zone and got the hub assembly for the front wheel. After removing the tire, I unplugged the old assembly and plugged in the new one. The service stability system light remained on. Then tried it on the other front side and still said service stablity system. Unhooked battery after each try to reset code, but still came on. I was able to get full refund from auto zone. They then plugged in a ABS readout gadgit and got the following codes:

    c1248 - ecbm turned on red brk lamp

    c1233 - rf wheel speed sensor ckt open or short

    c1214 - sys relay contacts or coil open

    Anyone got any solutions?

The service stability light as well as the abs light is all conected to the wheel sensor. To fix it is simple if you kn,w how to do a brake job,it is all conected to the hub assembly. I replaced both front wheel sensors due to that problem. you can by the hub assembly for around 100.00 dollars at auto zone. the wire that connects to the wheel always breaks and these codes come up.

I have the same thing with mine, i also have an ssei 2000. the stability system light is for your auto level control sensor mounted on the left rear wheel house and is $220.10 throught gm but you can find them in the junkyard if you look in the left rear wheel house for between $10 - $50. also it comes on for you to replace the optical sensor in the steering colum that tells the computerhow hard or fast that you have turned the wheel to avoid a situation or during normal driving for the variable effort steering system that part is about $90 dollars through gm and would recomend the dealership install the optical sensor have not done mine yet so i can not tell you about how much the bill would be but will keep you posted

2007 Chevy Impala ABS issues?

First check to see if all the wheel speed sensors are reading. If one fails, it will deactivate several of these systems.

The service stabilitrak light came on,on my 2011 vauaxhall astra 2.0 cdti sri diesel what do it mean

ASTRA ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
The Vauxhall Astra ABS warning light will illuminate yellow for a few seconds after the ignition has been started to self-check. The system will be operational when the light extinguishes. If the ABS light does not extinguish after starting the car or comes on whilst driving, this signifies a fault with the ABS system. Brakes will still operate although stability may be compromised on certain road surfaces. Take it to your mechanic to see if it needs to be serviced.

Service Stable Tracking Light came on

Hi there:

The Traction Control & Stability is a part of the anti lock brake system When these lights come on there has been a failure code set in the computer for a circuit failure.

This can be a sensor problem sometimes or a calibration change for the computer.You should have your local GM dealer check these systems for failures. These 2 systems work together through the EBCM (Electronic Brake Control Module).


Hope this helps.

Stability system disabled light on no power

The stability system is software programmed into the ABS - antilock brake control module also the PCM - engine computer . service engine light DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes stored . Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop or the dealer . You don't have the diagnostic equipment or knowledge to tackle this type of problem .

Brake lights, abs light,and slippery lights all turning on at the same time and did not occurrred at an specific circunstance

there is possibly a fault in the ABS system which would disable the stability control and may also turn on the brake light. The best bet is to have the ABS computer scanned for codes. If there is or was a fault a code would be stored. Once you know the code you will have a much better understanding of what the problem could be.

You will need a high end multifunction scan tool or and ABS specific code reader to pull codes. Your local parts store may be able to do this for you. If you are still within the 3/36 warranty the dealer should do this at no charge. If you are out of warranty any shop or toyota dealer can help you with this but there is usually a charge for this service.
