Driving home and Service ESC popped up dinging on the dash... what is it? Also lit up the traction triangle ?

2008 LT 2.4

 

Probably have a pending P0014

 

See if there are any pending or stored OBD2 codes.

 

No codes....?

 

I did notice shortly before the light came on, as I was leaving a lot, the driveway sloped downwards and there was like a tiny pothole mid way, when the front passenger tire caught that it was like the anti lock brakes kicked in? But nothing, about 10 miles later the light popped on with that traction light... any connections maybe? I noticed that anti-stop effect a few times slowing down and the wheels hit a divit here and there, seems too sensitive, is that normal with these?

And a side note, I didn't clear any codes but the battery was disconnected when I was messing with the dash awhile back.

 

What I am finding on research is possibly a bad wheel sensor, needing to replace the hub assembly?

 

Check the wires and connectors first before getting new hubs... Obviously.

Also is the light constant? Or might it be gone tomorrow when you drive the car... and not come back.

 

after I stopped to get soda it was off then popped back on after hitting some more rough spots in the lot....Ill pull the wheels tomorrow and see how they look, maybe clean em and add some Duck Butter (Dielectric grease) like I do with all my connections to repeal water....

 

Similar thing happened to me. It was my battery.

 

This is plausible. Some batteries are more sensitive than others to being jarred and it gets worse as they age.

Wouldn’t expect that to be the only symptom tho. Any other weirdness? Really sound more like an intermittent open circuit or something.
