SOURCE: the ESP/BAS light keeps coming

Have you unhooked your battery for something? You might try making sure the stability control's steering sensor is correct...

Basically, start the car turn the wheel all the way left to the stop, all the way right, then back to center. This lets the stability control know where "center" is.
Try this:
1) Disconnect your battery, wait 1 minute & just turn on the lights for a second as to remove any residual current from the computer.The lights will not come on but still turn ON.
2) Re-connect the battery, this should have cleared all of the lights except for the ESP\BAS light.
3) Start the car, center the wheels, turn all the way to the left then all the way to the right. This should clear the ESP\BAS light.
------- If still the same problem then the esp/bas module needs to be checked and reprogrammed by the dealer to turn it off. Thanks. Keep updated for any more query. You can rate this solution and show your appreciation

SOURCE: what does esp bas mean

Electronic stability control (ESC) (ESP) is a computerized technology [1][2] that improves safety of a vehicle's stability by detecting and minimizing skids. When ESC detects loss of steering control, it automatically applies the brakes to help "steer" the vehicle where the driver intends to go. Braking is automatically applied to wheels individually, such as the outer front wheel to counter oversteer or the inner rear wheel to counter understeer. Some ESC systems also reduce engine power until control is regained. ESC does not improve a vehicle's cornering performance; instead, it helps to minimize the loss of control. According to IIHS and NHTSA, one-third of fatal accidents could have been prevented by the technology

You hawe maiby some broken sensor.

C1041 code is-Left Front Tone Wheel Performance
the speed sensor was slower then the other front one to react to something,or the left wheel spun and not the right front one,
or there is a problem in the sensor or wiring

What causes the ESP light to turn on , in a 2010 journey?

The ESP (Electronic Stability Program) light turns on in a 2010 Journey when the system detects a fault or error with the vehicle's stability control system. This can be caused by a variety of issues, such as a faulty wheel speed sensor, a malfunctioning steering angle sensor, a problem with the ABS system, or issues with the traction control system. In some cases, a low battery voltage or a loose connection can also trigger the ESP light to turn on. It is recommended to have the vehicle diagnosed by a professional mechanic to identify the specific cause of the issue and perform the necessary repairs.

My dodge journey esp bas light turns on , what does it mean ?

This is an ESP / BAS Trouble Indicator symbol, meaning Electronic Stability Program and Brake Assist System ().These systems work together, and a fault in either or both will cause the light to come on. Have it checked out just go to your local auto supply store like Auto Zone are Advance auto they have a hand held devise that can check it out at no cost. :-)

The esp bas light is on my 2009 dodge 1500 and it won't start

An Electronic Stability Program (ESP)/Brake Assist System (BAS) indicator is standard equipment on all instrument clusters. The ESP/BAS indicator is serviced as a unit with the instrument cluster.
The ESP/BAS indicator gives an indication to the vehicle operator when the Electronic Stability Program (ESP)/Brake Assist System (BAS) has been activated. This indicator is controlled by a transistor on the instrument cluster circuit board based upon cluster programming and electronic messages received by the cluster from the Controller Antilock Brake (CAB) and the Transmission Control Module (TCM) over the Controller Area Network (CAN) data bus.
The ESP/BAS indicator Light Emitting Diode (LED) is completely controlled by the instrument cluster logic circuit, and that logic will only allow this indicator to operate when the instrument cluster receives a battery current input on the fused ignition switch output (run-start) circuit. Therefore, the LED will always be OFF when the ignition switch is in any position except ON or START. The LED only illuminates when it is provided a path to ground by the instrument cluster transistor. The instrument cluster will turn ON the ESP/BAS indicator for the following reasons:
  1. Bulb Test- Each time the ignition switch is turned to the ON position the ESP/BAS indicator is illuminated for about four seconds as a bulb test.
  2. ESP/BAS Indicator Lamp-On Message- Each time the cluster receives an electronic ESP/BAS indicator lamp-ON message from the CAB indicating that the ESP/BAS system has been activated, the ESP/BAS indicator will be illuminated. The indicator remains illuminated until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
  3. ESP Full Off Textual Message- Each time the cluster receives an electronic ESP Full OFF indicator lamp-ON message from the CAB indicating that the ESP/BAS system has been manually disabled, an ESP OFF textual message will appear within the cluster odometer display. The ESP OFF textual message remains displayed until the cluster receives a lamp-OFF message from the CAB, or until the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position, whichever occurs first.
  4. Actuator Test- Each time the cluster is put through the actuator test, the ESP/BAS indicator will be turned ON, then OFF again during the bulb check portion of the test to confirm the functionality of the LED and the cluster control circuitry.
The CAB continually monitors the ESP/BAS circuits and sensors to decide whether the system is in good operating condition and the proper outputs to the components of the system. The CAB then sends the proper lamp-ON or lamp-OFF message to the Electro Mechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC) (also known as the Cab Compartment Node/CCN).
For proper diagnosis of the ESP/BAS system, the CAB, the TCM, the EMIC, the CAN data bus or the electronic communication related to the ESP/BAS indicator operation a diagnostic scan tool is required. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.

Bas esp light come on 2010 dodge journey

Your Bas & Esp Light is on due to a failing or already failed Bas sensor & Esp Sensor, You can either do it yourself which can be very tricky if you are not confident with automobile repairs. The dealer should be able to do this at a reasonable price as it should take around an hour to do the repairs. If the problem keeps arising there could be a problem elsewhere that is connected to the same area & is shorting out.

I hope this helps.
