Replaced the struts and rear shocks on my 08 Tahoe yesterday, and now i have a ABS light and Traction Control light staying on? I unhooked battery hoping to reset everything but didn't work. Any insight or help with this would be apppreciated.

 

ttt.........Nobody has had this problem??

 

The traction light came on and now says service it after my brother changed out a shock on my wifes 08 Tahoe. I'm out of the country so I havent been able to look at it yet but am hoping its a fuse or just needs the codes cleared out. My wife is taking it in to be looked at so I will let you know what we find out.

 

Does the Tahoe have Auto-ride?

 

I don't think so...It's an LS package. It's like the traction control is turned off...It also says to service Stabilatrac?

Thanks Slo-rod and Bigkid!!

 

If the shocks in the rear weren't the airbag type shock, you don't have autoride. If you replaced the airbags with standard shock, that may be your problem. Other wise check and make sure you didn't accidentally dislodge one of the sensors/plugs. I found this on another forum I frequent regarding the exact same issue you are having on a 07 after changing shocks...

 

It had just regular shocks on the rear. Top bolts are a little hard to get out. I will start there when i get off work today. Thanks again...I will let you know what i find.

 

Problem fixed!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks again BigKid. My wife was in town, ran over and crawled under and found plug on rear drivers side unplugged. Fixed Traction control and ABS light. Note: Only the driver side has the plug in the way...couldn't feel the passenger side any where.

 

Thanks I will have my brother check that sometime this week. Glad you found and fixed the problem.

 

That was huge help. Thank you!!
