Stabilitrac lite

[Severum17]

2018 Premier, 1.5 turbo Pulled onto freeway, pushed it a little bit. Service Stabilitrac light came on and stayed until I shut it off and restarted it. Its now off, all is good, code reader says no stored codes. Just a glitch I guess? Anyone else see this. Live to see another day.

 

[Hey Vern!]

When I leave work there is an area with no merge lane. I always give it a foot full of throttle. Even in AWD the tires spin. I am not sure how that would cause an issue. I do have the 2.0 and you have the 1.5, but they aren't that different in the way they work.
I found this list of stabilitrac triggers:

• E85 Fuel
• Active Fuel Management
• Failed Throttle Position Sensor or defective Throttle Body Assembly
• Bad Steering Wheel Position Sensor
• Throttle Position Sensor
• Tire Pressure Monitor Sensors
• ABS Sensors
• Brake Switch
• Body Control Module
• Engines Misfires / Old Ignition Coils and Spark Plugs
• Bad Fuel Pump: doesn’t appear to be very common
• Lifter Failure

Its a mystery. The light went away, no codes stored so all is good. I put a new battery in today, it was 6 years old so it was due. Not a fan of all the computer nonsense.

If it happens again, the wheel speed sensors may need to be replaced.
