My 2008 avalanche ltz - TRACTION CONTROL ISSUE?

[Wolf Man]

I keep getting lights on dash trac control etc.Had it in to garage 2 or 3 times costing me over $1000.00 to fix but problem still comes back.Is there someone in Ottawa that specializes in how to repair or fix this before I decide to get rid of the vehicle.They clear it but it comes back on after i drive a bit.I love my Avy but enough is enough.

Is the same shop not being able to fix this for you over and over again?

Perhaps a different set of eyes might be helpful.

Every time I have had traction control, Stabilitrac or reduced power errors, a scan with a capable scanner always pointed to the offending system.

The last time for me, there was a poor wiring connection at the throttle body.

Others have reported worn out wheel bearing hubs.

Lots of different things can cause these errors to be thrown.

Maybe a different shop would have a better clues as to what is going on.

What did the problem turn out to be?

 

[Wolf Man]

There was a scenser on transmision that was causing the problem. Disconnected in no problems now.

That sensor may be important for something else?

 

[Wolf Man]

No it corrected the problem and no other issues.

 

[ygmn]

OK they put a sensor on your truck to give you an error light?

Something funky is going on in my opinion...
