Default "Service Active Handling" error does not store code?

Recently, I have started experiencing many "Active Handling Disabled" then "Service Active Handling" messages in the DIC while driving. I asked the dealer to look into it and the service advisor asked me to demonstrate how I get the messages to come up in the DIC because they could not duplicate the problem. He went on to say that there were no trouble codes stored so I need to bring the vehicle in when the message is being dispalyed.

Has anyone else had a similar experience where AHS is automatically disabled but no trouble codes were logged?

mine was the column position sensor causing the service active handling message. Try telescoping the steering wheel when you start the car. I could get the message to come up that way.

Default Same problem

I have experienced the same problem that you are having. It has happened to me twice so far. The first it just came up on me driving down the road I pulled over shut the car off and restarted the message went away. I took it into the dealer a few days later and they said there were no codes set. The second time it happened I started the car and was pulling out of a parking lot and the service active handling came on this time I did not shut off the car but called OnStar to see if they could read the code. They said they could see the service active handling but couldn't read any code. It was late at night so I could not take it to the dealer. I know this is of no help, just my experience so far.

Thanks for the input on your experiences! I've had my Vette back from the dealer for 3 days now and have not experienced the problem yet. It was occurring at least twice a week previously.

I'll let you know what happens...
