Low brake fluid caused my 2011 Silverado to throw the same lights. It’s worth checking
@wayhd2500 Жыл бұрын
Was going to comment the same thing, I’ve had to up the fluid level slightly when there lifted with a little lean as well. The fluid goes more towards the back of the reservoir and has caused the same issues.

Front wheel hubs. There are little magnets on the inside face of those front hubs that let the abs sensors know the wheel speed. My hubs were still good but a few of the little magnets vibrated out and caused this same issue.

Your oil pressure is by no means low for hot idle at 20 psi, but if you ever have to pull the pan you can plug the oil bypass valve and replace the pickup tube O-Ring and I believe it would bump it up a bit based off of my personal experience. Certainly not something to tear it down just for that, but it is a good idea when it is down. It also has the added benefit of potentially decreasing oil consumption as they were known for splashing oil during bypass causing it to burn.

Just to clarify I made this as a separate post from my other one as this is in no way causing your issues. This is simply something I wanted to mention after noticing the gauge in the video.

A BlueDriver would be an absolute MUST HAVE for someone doing KZbin videos like you are. It is about $100.00 and gives you all kinds of live data and allows you to scan ABS codes. Get that and it will be much easier for you to diagnose the vehicle. Good luck sir!
@mitchgriffin Жыл бұрын
I don’t mean to sound rude in saying this, but anyone suggesting random parts that could be bad are leading you in the wrong direction. While these are all very possible issues you would just be loading the parts cannon without knowing the exact codes as they will narrow it down quite a bit.

Buy a scan tool other than that your waisting your time unless you check power to each speed sensor, which you probably won’t do seeing as how your diagnosis for the window switch was assuming it was bad cause it was dirty. But you got lucky so props
@ianbailey1109 Жыл бұрын
You could tell it was the switch with how it was sticking. There was really only 2 possibilities for the window so I’d say he diagnosed that just fine. The switches in this body style are known for going bad
@logangolden607 Жыл бұрын
@@ianbailey1109 yeah I would also “assume” the switch was bad by how it was sticking, but as I said that’s an assumption and could also not be the case, window motors are know bad on these rigs as well. But a 100% confirmation would be testing power to the switch and from the switch ie at the pig tail of the switch and pig tail of the window motor

The ABS light and the traction control light should go out when you install a new wheel speed sensor. The other wires looked like they worked with your splice if you were able to turn them off and on like that.

Those two lights suck because anything to do with driveline will trigger it, on my truck it was the steering angle sensor. If it is that almighty GM has discontinued the part for it so you have to use one from a newer truck and it can be finicky.

Check grounds, may have bad abs sensors, there’s also sensor on the steering wheel under the dash that will cause this as well. You don’t need expensive scanner. It’s one of the 3 things.. checking grounds cost you your time no money.. after that it could only be 3 sensors. All easy repairs.

This would not cause an ABS light. It is also not uncommon for a vehicle to have his oil pressure level. General rule of thumb that racers have always used is 10psi per 1,000 rpm and he is plenty good on that. I do not know the spec off the top of my head but GM is okay with much less oil pressure at hot idle than he has.
