NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 10V172000 NHTSA Action Number: EA09002

Component: STEERING: COLUMN Potential Number of Units Affected: 40028

Summary:
GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005 AND 2006 CHEVROLET CORVETTE PASSENGER CARS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN MARCH 2004 AND JANUARY 2006 EQUIPPED WITH A TILT AND TELESCOPING STEERING COLUMN (RPO N37). IN RARE CASES, REPEATED MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING COLUMN MAY CAUSE A SIGNAL INTERRUPTION WITHIN THE COLUMN. IF THIS OCCURS, THE MESSAGE, "SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM" WILL APPEAR IN THE DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER, AND ONE OR MORE OF THE BRAKES MAY APPLY, POSSIBLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO PULL TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT.

Consequence:
IF THE DRIVER DOES NOT RESPOND TO THE CHANGE IN VEHICLE MOVEMENT, A CRASH COULD OCCUR.

Remedy:
GM WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND DEALERS WILL REPAIR THE VEHICLES FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR ABOUT APRIL 30, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438 AND GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 OR AT THE OWNER CENTER AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.

ADDENDUM:

If your DIC displays a "Service Active Handling" message it is normally a quick fix, unless it is the sensor. It’s an issue as noted in the TSB following that can be easily fixed by either a dealer, or a procedure that any owner can perform – see link below.

Typically the "connector" of the wiring harness on your "telescoping" steering column becomes stressed from movement – quite possibly being too short – and results in a partial disconnect momentarily triggering the SAH message. When this happens a condition called "fretting" can occur. This fretting is basically a charring of the connector pins due to carbon buildup from arcing. This consequently can change the resistance of the connector sending a false signal to the steering position sensor and subsequently the car’s control system. This in turn causes the system to interpret your action as doing something that you ought not be and will try to correct by applying opposite braking to correct. When this occurs the system can lock-up a wheel and prove to be very dangerous at high speed(s).

Failure to make the repair can result with the arcing within the connector developing into a charred and/or fretted condition as mentioned and requiring a wiring harness replacement.

The original fix was a wire tie and then revised to incorporating a locking connector adapter (clip) that takes less than 10 minutes to install and firmly secures the connection from separation. However, a second cause can be the actual steering wheel positioning sensor, current thought(s) appear to suggest that the sensor in some cases may be possibly at fault as well.

Condition
Some customers may comment on a Stabilitrak® or Active Handling System light being illuminated. Also, this warning light will be accompanied by a SERVICE STABILITRAK or SERVICE ACTIVE HNDLG message on the DIC.

Diagnosis with a scan tool may reveal a DTC C0710.

Cause
The most likely cause of a DTC C0710 on a vehicle equipped with telescoping/tilt steering wheel is high resistance in SWPS connector C202. Fretting terminal corrosion may be present in the SWPS connector due to the telescoping motion of the steering column. When the steering column is telescoped in and out, the female terminals within the SWPS connector may move on the male terminals of the SWPS. This movement between the terminals may cause a high resistance condition in the SWPS connector.

Correction
Remove the driver's side closeout (insulator) panel.
Locate the SWPS connector that connects to the steering angle sensor, located on the lower center of the steering column.

Install the clip (1), P/N 19179794, into the connector. This clip will act as a terminal positive assurance (TPA) and prevent any movement of the terminals.
Reinstall the closeout panel.
Clear the DTC with a scan tool and road test the vehicle.
If DTC C0710 resets during the road test, refer to DTC C0710 in SI.

well.. I dont know about this website, this my second time here lol

And thank you QwikC for the support

Cozmo

Is that the only code you're getting? What year is your Z06? Does it have any of the factory warranty remaining?

The problem could be a number of issues. It could be a speed sensor in one of your wheel hubs. It could be a BCM issue, etc. Post up some more information and perhaps we can help.

If you are getting this code you need to have your car serviced. Period. Faulty active handling could cause less that desireable results driving the car

DON T.

mine did same thing, does your z have headers? I had exhaust leak and it messed up codes somehow.. Goodluck

LanceFitzgiben

gotta go get the codes pulled to see what's up. Mine turned out to be the brake pedal switch or something. Reset the adaptations (I think) and it's been good since.

Push the button to bring the steering wheel a bit closer to the dash. You probably have it extended fully out. If you retract it a bit and the problem goes away the cable is being stretched.
