How to solve Vauxhall corsa E service ESC problem

Vauxhall Corsa E 1.4 service ESC and traction control problem.
If the ESC light comes up on your corsa, change the part I’m showing you.
Why this part triggers the service ESC I don’t know as it has nothing to do with it, but it works.

Worked like a charm! Thanks a lot!

[@idc202]

Worked for me! Thanks 👍🏼

[@jrgencarstensen4425]

Thanks a lot also works on my Corsa E👍😊

Spot on information 👌

Interesting. Took mine to Vauxhall initially and they changed the ignition coil for a lot of money, didn't even do the spark plugs. It happened again 9 months later so i swapped in a new coil pack and changed the old knackered spark plugs, been fine for about 20k miles now. I think old plugs were making the coil work too hard and wearing it out. Never touched that bit you showed in the video but helpful to know for the future.

Just done this and the light has gone out thanks. Also replaced the 8 year old agm battery with a new one so all good😀

I had this problem and seems to have sorted it however it was coming on intermittently (been a couple of days and seems fine) thanks

[@jakehull4544]

Yeah same here bro

[@gaw67]

I've got this problem. So I will try. Thanks for this 👍

[@sg2182]

How did you get on mate?

[@mirola73]

Yep, one on the way as I write. What a racket these things can make. No warning lights on the dash, or any faults codes though.

I have problem with my corsa 2015 90hp. 70 000 km (Only Opel certified garage maintenance revision) Around 800rpm to 1000 rpm I've stability rpm engine with ESC indicator on board computer ? Engine run with SP95 E10

[@gregor_bs335]

I have proppably the same problem. Engine fault P0171 and C0242 , C0244 inform about problem with traction control/ abs. Why there are related I dont' know. Change PCV solved your problem in 100%? How found you the solution?

[@paulwake4204]

I seem to be having this issue with my 2016 Astra, went to a garage and they plugged it in and said it was a problem with the ABS module and for a refurbish it was £600! Paid it, 1 year later and the last has come on again this morning!

[@Motorheadltd]

Try the purge valve, for the sake of £20 what have you got to lose?

[@Nik-nc7pv]

I have a problem with the ESU light on how does the purge valve relate to the ESU? Mine comes on after 1 min of being stationary will the purge valve do the trick? Thank you

[@Motorheadltd]

How does anything relate to anything on a Vauxhall??? I learnt many years ago that when one part goes to the wall, the EML will relate to something that’s completely different. Example, on an Astra the electric power steering went to shit and it turned out to be the alternator???? All I know is with Vauxhall’s they put multiple parts on a ring electronic system. So you have to work out what else is on the ring that’s failed. That’s all I did here. So my question is, what has a purge valve got to do with the ESC??? The answer is absolutely nothing!!! But it’s on the electronic loop for it.

[@liammtb1817]

Does this help remove service esc and engine light cause have changed coil pack and plugs car drives fine no probs just light comes on

[@Motorheadltd]

Yes It did remove the service ESC and the EML lights for me.

[@reezamohammed4788]

When the car leans around roundabout, the service esc light comes on. At idle and on drive there's an intermittent misfire. P0300 code came up. Any ideas what it can be?

[@chrisdoman7221]

The misfire, I would go for changing the coil pack as for the ESC I would check the wheel sensors and ABS rings.

[@DenzRenz]

Does it work for the Astra?

[@Motorheadltd]

I have no idea, try it and find out. But if it does work then please comment to let others know. 👍

[@markpitman100]

Just replaced on my 2018 corsa code still there, have also the engine manalight in too though, scan said running lean left bank I think, any ideas? Thanks. Just after a oil and filter change air filter cleaned out.

[@Motorheadltd]

Hi if I was to start looking I would check the airflow meter first. Unplug it and see if that removes the problem. If not I would then check the O2 sensor, ten last check for air leaks on the vacuum pipes. Best I can come up with without seeing it bud.

[@markpitman100]

@@Motorheadltd thankyou so much, they looked at the pipe seems fine no holes or cracks, the air sensor they looked at and again looked OK. It's so frustrating need it for work and I'm a driving instructor can't have fault lights on for test. Il try the other bits you said. Thanks again, honestly really appreciate it.

[@whezzy1965]

@@markpitman100 hiya, were you able to fix this. I'm in the same boat

[@maniac3173]

I got an insignia every week thr car stops starting up right after service esc message. I have to jump start to be able to drive again. 7 days later repeat. Ive been told to replace battery. That'll cost me over £200. Think ill give this a shot first. Anyway for me to get model number for insignia, or its the same?

[@Motorheadltd]

Ok Vauxhalls are retarded, for some stupid reason they like to wire things like the electric windows into the power steering. Before you do anything I would check the alternator/ regulator to see if there is a good charge coming through. Then check the battery to see if it has dodgy sells. Failing that I would then go through the fuses one by one and look for a blown fuse or signs of a power drain. The service ESC light that flashes up is normally just a by product of the actual problem with the car. So before you go swapping parts look at your symptoms first. 👍

[@enriquee.k3329]

Bro, I have Opel corsa 2017 1.4l today I got message says Engine Power Is Reduced !!! What do you think ? Thanks

[@Motorheadltd]

You need to plug it in and find out fella. It could be a number of things

[@inekenis4158]

Hello, I have A question. I recently bought a opel corsa and it makes the same noice as your car. Is this normal for this brand ? I sounds so weird to think this ratteling is normal 😅

[@LethalJizzle]

I think so, they have a timing chain and mine goes 'tat tat tat' when its idling. Think its just the guides/tensioners.

[@huwparry91]

What year Corsa was this problem? I have a 2016 with same issue?

[@Motorheadltd]

2015

[@giannism7420]

@@Motorheadltdhi my friend I don’t have sound from my speakers did you know how reset infotainment system

[@Motorheadltd]

@@giannism7420 put the ignition on, turn on the head unit, then disconnect the battery. Wait 30 seconds the connect the battery back up again. Should sort it.

[@barry7323]

Will this part be same on corsa e vxr

[@Motorheadltd]

Don’t know, check the part and see if it’s the same obviously

[@tamayabetances7317]

What’s the name of the part you changed please ?for the ESC SERVICE

[@Motorheadltd]

It was a purge valve.

[@tamayabetances7317]

Thanks

[@tamayabetances7317]

When you had the ESC problem u engine light was staying on as well ?

[@Motorheadltd]

Tamaya Betances no it wasn’t. The service ESC message and the traction control light kept flashing up but no EML
