Code P0011 intake camshaft position performance ( could be a camshaft sensor, or could be that the intake camshaft variable timing unit is stuck try changing the oil and filter and add some seafome to the oil clear the code and drive it and see if the code comes back)

code C0561 system disabled information stored ( the electronic brake control module disables the traction control system when their is a DTC stored that might effect the traction control system, could be caused by the P0011 )

2009 GMC Sierra traction control light on

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

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.

DTC C0561 72: System Disabled Information Stored Alive Counter Incorrect

DTC C0561 74: System Disabled Information Value of Signal Protection Calculation Incorrect

Circuit/System Description
The electronic brake control module (EBCM) receives serial data messages from the body control module (BCM), engine control module (ECM), instrument panel cluster (IPC), and the transmission control module (TCM) which are needed to perform antilock brake system (ABS), vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES), or traction control system (TCS) functions.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition voltage is greater than 10 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The EBCM receives an invalid serial data message from another module.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
?€¢
The EBCM disables the traction control system (TCS)/ vehicle stability enhancement system (VSES).


?€¢
A DIC message and/or a warning indicator may be displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
?€¢
The condition for the DTC is no longer present.


?€¢
The EBCM clears the history DTC when a current DTC is not detected in 100 consecutive drive cycles.

Diagnostic Aids
This DTC indicates that there are no problems in the EBCM. The BCM, ECM, IPC and the TCM should be checked for a possible fault.

  1. With a scan tool, view the Invalid Signal Data Display.
  2. If no invalid signal are present, view Signal Fault Data in the Enhanced DTC Data.
  3. Refer to appropriate module for diagnosing the invalid message data.
  4. Do not replace the EBCM due to this DTC fault.
You would need a factory scan tool or equivalent too diagnose this ,not a code reader . So do your self a favor an take to a dealership. I've been doing this for thirty years .

Code p0011

http://www.datsc.com/tabid/122/OBD-Error-Code/P0011/Diagnostics/Mercedes-Benz/Default.aspx
"..........OBD Code P0011refers to
A code P0011 refers to the VVT (variable valve timing) or VCT (variable camshaft timing) components and the car's PCM (powertrain control module, also called an ECM). That consists of a few different components but the P0011 DTC specifically refers to the camshaft (cam) timing. In this case, if the cam timing is above a set limit (over-advanced), the engine light will be illluminated and the code will be set. The "A" camshaft is either the intake, left, or front camshaft.

SymptomsPossible sumptoms of OBD code P0011
Most likely a P0011 DTC will result in one of the following: hard starting, poor idle, and/or stalling. There are potentially other symptoms as well. Of course, when trouble codes are set, the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp, a.k.a. the check engine light) illuminates.

CausesPossible causes of OBD code P0011
A P0011 DTC trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following: Incorrect camshaft timing Wiring problems (harness/wiring) in intake timing control valve control solenoid system Continuous oil flow to VCT piston chamber Failed timing valve control solenoid (stuck open)

Possible SolutionsThis DTC code is a result of a mechanical fault of the VCT unit or related components, so there is no need for electrical diagnosis. Refer to vehicle specific repair manual to perform component tests for the VCT unit. Notes: Dealer techs have advanced tools and the ability to follow detailed troubleshooting steps, including the ability to test components using a scan tool.

DTC C0561 System Disabled Information Stored
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The powertrain control module (PCM) or body control module (BCM) diagnoses a condition preventing the engine control portion of the traction control function and sends a serial data message to the EBCM indicating that torque reduction is not allowed. The PCM or BCM will typically set a DTC and the EBCM will set this DTC.
This vehicle has DTCs which include DTC Symptoms. For more information on DTC Symptoms, refer to DTC Symptom Description .

Hi there Camilo:
DTC P0011 - "A" Camshaft Position - Timing Over-Advanced or System Performance (Bank 1)
A code P0011 refers to the VVT (variable valve timing) or VCT (variable camshaft timing) components and the car's PCM (powertrain control module, also called an ECM). That consists of a few different components but the P0011 DTC specifically refers to the camshaft (cam) timing. In this case, if the cam timing is above a set limit (over-advanced), the engine light will be illluminated and the code will be set. The "A" camshaft is either the intake, left, or front camshaft.

Causes

A DTC P0011 trouble code may be caused by one or more of the following:
- Incorrect camshaft timing
- Wiring problems (harness/wiring) in intake timing control valve control solenoid system
- Continuous oil flow to VCT piston chamber
- Failed timing valve control solenoid (stuck open)

Possible Solutions:
This DTC code is a result of a mechanical fault of the VCT unit or related components, so there is no need for electrical diagnosis.

DTC P0462 - Fuel Level Sensor Circuit Low
This could happen happen you ran your fuel tank too low I would first fill up the tank and go to your local parts store and have them reset the code to see if it stays off .If the light comes back on the most likely reason is because the fuel level sensor needs to be replaced but other possible causes are wiring problems, fuel pump module, or cluster. You will need to barrow a special tool which is the lock wring wrench from your local parts store to remoe the fuel pump. Here are instructions from Nissan TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) to solve it; let me know if you have questions.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.
