Car threw 2 codes, is in the shop now - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Frank in MD · 06-06-2013, 03:26 PM

I was on my way home last evening where I had to brake hard. Yellow light, red light camera intersection. Anyway, I felt the car running rough and my dash began to light up like a Christmas tree. Engine light, Service Stabilitrack light, traction control disabled, abs.... I went a block further and pulled it over, Onstar gave me two codes:

U0401 - ABS TRACTION CONTROL STABILITRAK & P0300 - MISFIRE.

I have a '12 1SS/RS. I just had new 22" wheels and tires put on last Thursday. It was a staggered set up. 22x9 fronts 22x10.5 rears.

I'm thinking all my current issues are related to the new wheels and tires?

Thoughts?

Misfire, cylinder #5. How in the hell does that happen at the very same time my dash lights up like a Christmas tree after a hard stop?

Frank in MD · 06-10-2013, 04:33 PM

My svc team thinks the misfire in cylinder 5 is the cause of the Stabilitrack, ABS, Traction Control. I was thinking it was the other way around.

Has anyone ever had an issue where a misfire cause stabilitrack, abs, and trac to light up like Christmas in Times Square?

So my car is out of the shop, waiting to get my ticket written up and talk to the tech and the svc advisor. Happy to have my car back but unhappy that the source of this issue was not discovered.... at least as far as I know.

Was there ever a TSB for this issue?

I'm having a similar issue now...

service stabilitrak, rpm needle stays at zero, and all the traction lights are on.
car will start, but barely.

I never had an issue w/ the tach. I just had a misfire from a loose spark plug wire on cylinder #5. When it was switched to another cylinder the issue did not reoccur. Everything has been fine since though. *fingers crossed*

Mine just started doing this, did you ever figure it out?

derklug · 07-31-2014, 12:37 AM

When you get multiple warning lights, you have to understand how all of these systems interact. The Stabilitrack, traction control, and ABS all link to the engine controls. When you enter into a sideways slide, a loss of traction, or a skid the ABS computer commands the engine to decrease power. If the engine is missing, decreasing power could cause a stall. So, when the ECM registers a misfire code, it turns on the Check Engine Light and sends this information out to the ABS module. The ABS module then turns off the traction control and Stabilitrack and tells the instrument cluster module to turn on all of the warning lights.
Working together, all of the systems on modern cars make them the safest in history, but a problem in one will effect all of the other systems.

My car gave me the P0305 code to and all the other codes as well. I replaced the spark plug, wire and coil pack. The all the codes cleared up. That was about 4 months ago.

Now I have the same code but for cylinder 1. Replaced all the same things but still have the codes. Not sure whats different.
