I am having a problem with my traction control coming on for no reason in normal driving mode, I can turn traction control off and get all my power back. When I first start the car and take off all is good, until I break the tires loose one time, then the traction control comes on at about 2700 rpm, even if I am just rolling it on, not spinning the tires at all. If I pull over, turn the car off, restart and then go, all is good again until I break the tires loose and then we are back to traction control coming on for no reason again.


Any ideas ??? thanks for your help !!!!

 

Pull the codes on the car and list them!!!!!! This will make trouble shooting a lot easy.



Now, the TC works off the hub wheel sensors of all 4 hubs mostly, so start with checking to make sure that the hub wheel sensor connecters are clean and plugged in. If you pulled the codes, may luck out and point you to which wheel hub connection to focus on.


Also, what size tires, since your rear tire OD sizer's should be 1.08" larger than your front tire OD size's. If the tire ratios are off, the car is going to throw codes as well.

Lastly, what brake lines are you running. There has been problems with SS braid brake line building up a static charge, and when it dumps the charge to the hubs, freaks out the wheel sensors in the hubs.

Short of the above, you have a short in the wiring somewhere that is causing problems. And yes, trouble shooting electrical gremlins in the VET are a BITCH to solve most of the time; and very expensive if you are paying a shop to find them for you instead.

Here again, you start with the code being thrown by the car to narrow the field down, then go at it to find the problem in that area.

 

Thanks Dano


There are no codes coming up, I do have larger tires on the rear, 305/30/19 the dealership put on a set of stock tires to check if that was it, but no change. They cant send my computer info to chevy tech because if has a supercharger on it and the tune has been modified.
