This bulletin provides information on two different conditions.
Condition # 1
Some customers may comment on a Service StabiliTrak(R) indicator light along with a Service StabiliTrak(R) message displayed in the DIC.
Upon investigation, the technician may find DTC C0196 set in history.
Condition # 2
Some customers may comment on a blinking StabiliTrak(R) indicator light along with a StabiliTrak Active message displayed in the DIC during
normal driving conditions. No DTCs will be found with this concern.
Cause
This condition may be caused by a software anomaly within the electronic brake control module (EBCM) that allowed the yaw offset to be falsely
learned.
Correction
Important:
From the controller list, select "VSES Vehicle Stability Enhancement System Control Module".
If routine diagnosis using SI does not reveal any obvious cause, reprogram the EBCM using SPS with the latest software available on TIS2WEB.
Refer to the Service Programming System (SPS) procedures in SI. As always, make sure your Tech 2(R) is updated with the latest software
version.
