Service Stabilitrak/ Car Stalls
So yesterday I had my ZL1 out and I was backing up when the service Stabilitrak came on and the car shut off. That happened twice and the car restarted so I drove down the road and came to a traffic light where the car did the same thing but this time it would not restart. I had the car taken by rollback to my dealer. I did put the rotofab on the other day but I wouldn't think that would cause this. Any ideas what this is? Thanks Bill

Mine has done the same thing. But in has never shut off just limited power. If I shut the car off and wait 2-5 minutes then all is good until next time. Even when taking easy it does it. Yes i had the ground wire relocated. Sorry Op don't mean to steal your thread but maybe with more info maybe we can get a better answer. What did the dealership come up with?

If you can, try putting the ground wire back in the original location and see if it makes a difference. |

They are talking with GM tech assistance. He said that the car is running fine for him but it is showing a couple communication errors. I really hope that this isn't the beginning of an electrical nightmare that keeps popping up.

Got my car back today. After I had the car transported by rollback to the dealer it fired up the very next morning when they went to look at it. My friend/ GM Technician said that the car drove fine and ran fine and he could not get it to duplicate the problem but did tell me that there was a code in it for the stabilitrak as well as communication errors. He contacted GM Tech assistance which ended up telling him to replace the terminals on 4 modules that were not communicating with each other. He did that and cleared the codes and the car has still not acted up for him. I picked the car up a couple hours ago and it has not duplicated the problem for me either. I hope that this was just a simple fix and that I have no more issues. Thanks Bill

How did the technician delete the codes? Could I delete the codes at my house or do I have to take it to a dealership and have it done? Because my ZL1 is having the same problem except it will not even start now. It was at the stage where you could wait a few minutes and then turn it on after it shut off, but later when driving it shut down and I had to pull to the side of the road. Luckily it fired back up and I could drive back home but it shut off again in my drive way. So I waited a few minutes and then it started and I put it in the garage. A few hours later, I went to go start it and it will not start at all, even after waiting a few minutes. Nothing happens when I try to turn it on.
