Thank you for this vid...we had our 2015 Silverado and the headlights and taillights turned off and then the Brake, Stabilitrak, and Trailer Brake System service lights all came on. Dealer replaced body control module..30 minutes later it happened again and as soon as it got dark of course. Replaced the Trailer Brake Control Module about a week ago and haven't seen a return issue as of yet so hopefully that is what resolved it

Thanks for the info....popped mine off....took 5 min works great.....no more annoying beeps and messages on dash.....saved me a lot of frustration and money from the dealer or repair shop....I'm pretty sure they would have charged me a minimum 2hour labor charge , plus a brand new dealer part😩..... That only needed to be cleaned🤦🏿‍♂️.......... 👍🏿

i had my 18 Silverado at the dealer two different times for this issue. Its only after watching this video and doing as shown in the video that fixed the issue. Mine seemed to have a fare bit of dielectric grease .I wiped down the contacts and slightly pried out the contacts so they made a better connection. So far so good.

Have to say thank you. Easy tear down, clean, swipe-surface greasing and reinstall. The hardest part was removing the slider heads. (I used a pair of wide-surface pliers with a rag on each one as to not mar the surfaces.) So-far it's working fine but even if I eventually need the switch assembly, it's still a savings. Saved me $$$ (2015 Silverado 2-Dr short-box). 🙂

Can’t thank you enough, the new electronics on these trucks makes no sense to me. Got the service trailer brake warning and beeping, popped in the new module for 20 bucks in 5 minutes. Somehow it fixed the usb ports on my center console that weren’t working and my window goes up automatically again. Lmao 20 bucks to fix 3 problems

Great video. Just a heads up, you need to apply a thin coat of dielectric grease to the wiper surface. This will prevent corrosion as well as lubricate to avoid friction gouges on the contact surface.

Personally when I had the issue I learned that the service notification can come up if your module under your spare tire gets dirty/caked up. Sometimes it can be fixed by washing it off clean or getting a new module. Personally Havnt had anymore issues since. These trucks are great but they do have some things that can piss owners off. Luckily KZfaq has most of the answers to your problems.

Bought a 2017 60k miles and a week later the stabilitrack and trailer service warning came on and the abs light + cruise control stopped working... Ugh. Found your channel - yay! Hope I can figure this stuff out cause I like this truck. It feels like a truck - kind of clunky but in a good way. The Ram felt too much like a car. Subscribed.

Having this issue with my 2020 Silverado(when the trailer is connected). The alarm intermittently goes off.. warning me to "check trailer wiring" (Lights etc work on the trailer while this is occurring). Heading to the Chevy Dealership (for the 3rd time) tomorrow.. as the Gen.RV folks can't seem to find the problem. I will take your URL with me tomorrow and suggest they try this. I would do it myself, but my Controller is on the right side of the steering wheel on this truck and looks a bit different. I'd hate to pull apart the panel and not be able to figure it out. I'm heading on a major road trip May 10 and worried I'll have to hear that annoying warning signal for 1500 miles out then back!

Hi - Having same issue with my 2016 Silverado "check trailer wiring". I've confirmed that it is on the "truck" side not the trailer side. Dealer had my truck for 3 days, said everything was fine. They reprogrammed the trailer brake module. I brought the truck home and hooked it up to my travel trailer, it worked fine for about 3 minutes, then the message starting appearing again! Just like yours...lights, turn signals everything else works fine; just no trailer brakes. Were you able to get yours fixed?? Prior to taking it to the dealer, I replaced the trailer plug, replaced the truck plug, and also replaced the trailer brake module under the spare tire. Nothing fixed it.

Mine has this error as well as a helpful message that just says "Stabilitrack." Are the systems interconnected to where the controller could cause both errors? Weird thing is it turned the parking assist off as if I have a trailer connected.

They are in a sense but if its stabilitrak its either a broken wire or the abs control module under the driverside frame rail.
