STABILITY SYS (System) ACTIVE

You may see the STABILITY SYS ACTIVE message on

the DIC. It means that an advanced computer-controlled

system has come on to help your vehicle continue to

go in the direction in which you are steering. StabiliTrak

activates when the computer senses that your vehicle

is just starting to spin, as it might if you hit a patch of ice

or other slippery spot on the road. When the system

activates, you may hear a noise or feel a vibration in the

brake pedal. This is normal. When the STABILITY

SYS ACTIVE message is on, you should continue to

steer in the direction you want to go. The system

is designed to help you in bad weather or other difficult

driving situations by making the most of whatever

road conditions will permit.

STABILITY SYS (System) DISABLED

The STABILITY SYS DISABLED message will turn on

when you press the StabiliTrak

button, or when

the stability control has been automatically disabled.

To limit wheel spin and realize the full beneﬁts of

the stability enhancement system, you should normally

leave StabiliTrak

on. However, you should turn

StabiliTrak

off if your vehicle gets stuck in sand, mud,

ice, or snow and you want to rock your vehicle to

attempt to free it, or if you are driving in extreme off-road

conditions and require more wheel spin. See If Your

Vehicle is Stuck in Sand, Mud, Ice or Snow on

page 4-46. To turn the StabiliTrak

system back on,

press the StabiliTrak

button again.

There are several conditions that can cause this

message to appear.

• One condition is overheating, which could occur if

StabiliTrak

activates continuously for an extended

period of time.

• The message will also be displayed if the brake

system warning light is on. See Brake System

Warning Light on page 3-41.

• The message could be displayed if the stability

system takes longer than usual to complete its

diagnostic checks due to driving conditions.

• If an engine or vehicle related problem has been

detected and the vehicle needs service, the

message will appear. See your GM dealer.

• The message will also appear if the vehicle is

shifted into 4LO.

The message will turn off as soon as the conditions that

caused the message to be displayed are no longer

present.
