ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

anyone had this yet .

after about 125 miles of rough off roading in a 10 hour period , i was on a gravel access road when all of a sudden the brake peddle starts modulating like abs kicking in and the truck would come to a abrubt stop . this is without me touching the brake pedal . stabili-trac seemed to engage and stop the truck . this happened about 4 times

i am getting the abs failure message along with stabili system failure and a traction failed message all along with a traction service message . has anyone else had all 4 messages on their DIC before ??

F5 and i have been trouble shooting with no luck :twak: have dis-connected battery , checked abs sensors , etc. etc.

guess i gotta go to salt lake mon . :(

if anyone has had this or heard of this , give me the details .


i also have this in the tech section but doubt everyone will see it down there :p

Doesnt sound soo good! that cant be safe.

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

seems to only happen on loose surfaces . F5 followed me home on the pavement , we werent sure if it would try to stop the truck on the highway or not . luckily it didant but still have all the warnings on the info center . tne abs and stabili light wont go off and still getting service traction system after unhooking everything . looks like i will dealer bound tomorrow :yawn:

This is just plain weird. Let us know how it works out!!

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

Do you still have brake lights? Did you check the brake switch thingy?

When I lost my brake switch, I had service 4wd on the dic....not the same I know.

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

its got us stumped i have 27k trouble free miles on it too . with a ton of it being offroad

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

nope when i came to a screeching stop infront of F5 no brake lights but brake lights are fine when i apply them . its like stabili-trac is applying the brakes just out of the blue . i get a active handling clicking noise up front and a abs type surge . this is with my feet not touching anything .

Hey man,

Jeremy in the South Jordan location is the service guy to see! Don't bother with the SLC location they are a mess!

South Jordan is a far superior service location. I got a H3 loaner from them for the duration of the service work with unlimited miles (you will put quite a few on :D ).

As much wheeling as that truck has seen this summer and I'm not surprised something finally went south. That's a lot of bouncing around! :giggling:

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

thanks bro , they did my front diff a year and a half ago , got great service then .

yea my truck has probably been wheeled as much as any other 3 out there :jump:

i think i shook the lil dude to death :giggling: :giggling:

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

Neo, I would call hummer cust service too. The 03 H2 had a wireing problem like this that caused a mini re-call. brakes would lock up on trucks that had off road lights and then tried to use a trailer brake/connector.
Aperson was thrown from a parade float. Thank god you have a specialist with you.

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

Sorry for the problems, but great pic!!

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

thanx , atleast the truck is drivable , i just cant wheel it :giggling:

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

just needs a little TLC and she'll be back on her feet. Just be careful Neo or you'll drive home in an Alpha.
Oh yeah, I miss you crazies.:crying: :beerchug:

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

Neo -
Can you turn off stabilitrac and at least prevent the sudden braking? I know it's not a fix, but just curious if that removes the problem until you get it into the shop.

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
 

just a bad sensor :D parts will be here tomorrow (also getting front diff carrier bushing replaced ) :jump: :jump: finally ;) thats what i had to tighten every morning before we hit the trails .

Re: ABS , Stabili , and traction
