Traction control light on . DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes are stored in ABS control module pointing to the malfunction . Take to a qualified repair shop or to auto part store that can pull these code. DTC C0242 00: Engine Control Module (ECM) Indicated TCS Malfunction
DTC P0856: Traction Control Torque Request Circuit
The electronic brake control module (EBCM) and the engine control module (ECM) simultaneously control the traction control. The EBCM sends a serial data message to the ECM requesting torque reduction. When certain ECM DTCs are set, the ECM will not be able to perform the torque reduction for traction control. A serial data message is sent to the EBCM indicating that traction control is not allowed.
DTC C0561 4B: System Disabled Information Stored Calibration Not Learned
DTC C0561 54: System Disabled Information Stored Temparature High
DTC C0561 59: System Disabled Information Stored Component Protection Time Out
DTC C0561 71: System Disabled Information Stored Invalid Serial Data Received
DTC C0561 72: System Disabled Information Stored Alive Counter Incorrect
DTC C0561 74: System Disabled Information Stored Value of Signal Protection Calculation Incorrect
DTC C0561 75: System Disabled Information Stored Signal Above Allowable Range

Traction Control Off Indicator
The IPC illuminates the traction off indicator when the following occurs.
• The EBCM disables engine torque reduction due to a malfunction and sends a serial data message to the IPC requesting illumination.
• The driver manually disables VSES and engine torque reduction by pressing the traction control switch. The EBCM sends a serial data message to the IPC requesting illumination.

SOURCE: 2004 gmc 1500 sierra heater control stuck on

Defrost is the default position. Is the control a autyomatic temperture control unit? ( you set the temp and select automatic) if it is the system is completely electronic. You push the buttons and the control still says defrost or can you select something else and the control shows it but it just keeps coming out the defrost? If the control changes and the air comes out the defrost anyway and the cheack engine light isn't on, then the problem can be blown fuses or an air door actoater not working. Does the dash emit a clicking sound? if it does with the covers off the bottom of the dash reach around touching the different pieces till you touch the idem that is clicking. this is an acutor motor, or blend door motor. they have gears in them that wear out and break the motors aren't repairable and you just replace the ofending motor. the door that is moves can be stuck. and may have to be freed up with blaster, WD40, or other rust buster till it moves easy. maybe after getting the door to move smoothly you can get the old motor to move the door wiithout having to install a new one.

There is something wrong with your transmission (and most likely your ABS and TCS). You'll need to have the trouble codes read and diagnosed.

You will need to get the codes with a scan tool.This will help find out what could be causing the light to come on.Let me know what codes you have and I`ll be glad to help you find out what the problem could be.Good luck.

SOURCE: 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 50,644 miles check

This problem seems to be the ECM (computer) to have so many things acting up at the same time. Did it all start at the same time? Its possible that you can reset the ECM by removing the hot and ground cables, wait about 15 minutes and then replace them, may fix the problem, may only temporarily fix the problem if the ecm is bad or something is setting a code to cause this. It sounds as if it is running in limp mode. Have it tested at the nearest parts store. They should be able to decipher the problem.

Testimonial: "Thank you....everything did start at one time How much do you think it will cost to have it repaired"

My 2009 GMC Sierra SLE 4/4 K Series after starting the Service Traction Control & Service Stabilitrak light as well as the check engine light come on and stays on. How do I correct this?

Hook up a professional grade scan tool and read DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes. then get service repair info. www.alldatadiy.com and do the diagnostic tests for that code. Thats how a professional tech does it.

The traction control light doesn't come on, seat belt light is flashing even when fastened and the transmission temp doesn't show up on 2010 gmc sierra

Sounds like some fuses need to be replaced. Also the sensors on these newer vehicles go come on for no reason. Try to have the sensors replaced or reset.
