I also have the same problem with my15 Malibu, you save me a bunch of hassle, can’t begin to thank you, certainly appreciate it, im now a new subscriber so keep them coming, looking forward to more 🙏
I’m glad I came across your video my 2015 Malibu has 205,000 miles on it. Thanks to your video I will have an idea of the diagnosis if I should come across this issue
Thank you so much for an awesome tutorial!! Working thru chemo brain and you kept it simple for even myself to understand! Lol Soon as I pulled away from the garage, the ABS/traction control/ and the Brake Assist all came on and soon as I made first turn, the darn Stabiltrack light came on also! It doesn’t stay on constantly but it is still on and off. Again, thank you so much for ur helpful video!
Thank you sir. I’ve had my 2013 Chevy Malibu since new with about 102,000 miles now and the stabilitrac light has now made its presence known. I’m glad your video was the first to pop up. It is my Friday of my work week and now I have a fun project to complete. Again. Thank you for the informative video.
So you have more problems with it
Good job great to have people who’s willing to help!!!
Mannnnnnn You Was A Blessing..I Didnt Fix It Myself..But I Was Able To Go In There Talking Like I Knew What I Was Talking About..Lol..(AND DAMN IT U WAS RIGHT)Got It Fixed For The Low Low...(APPRECIATE YO INFO)
I had a similar issue with my 2010 Chevy HHR . At about 4 years old, I had "SVC ABS, SVC Traction, etc". Dealer "fixed" it by replacing an electronic harness--eventually on both front wheels. Guess what, ~4 years later, the same warnings come back up. I didn't even bother getting it "fixed". Recently purchased a low mileage 2014 Malibu and the owner stated that the Stablitrak needed servicing, he had the part on order and was waiting for it to come in so that he could change it. He mentioned that little ring you had mentioned in the video. I'm guessing that that was the issue with my HHR and not some electronic harness. I'm filing this video for future reference because I know I'll probably need it! Thank you!
Great Video, Great Explanation, You Need More Videos 👍👍 Best UA-camr I've seen in awhile 😊
Man you are criminally undersubbed. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for this!! Update forthcoming!! I'm all about trying to fix it ourself
This worked for me.
Bought for $80 a set of 2 bearings. Installed both rear for $150 labor. Happy with the results. Much less noise inside of the car, and no lights anymore.
My currently has a very loud noise so I’m assuming that’s what it’s for? I’ve had the stablitrak light come on and off every once in awhile but never stays on
Your videos are so informative.
anytime you can fix it yur self , You save tons of $$ and you can learn from it .. AWESOME Rick !!
Easiest to follow car repair video ever, I hope he has more Malibu videos
unfortunately, the malibu was totaled New Years day. some jackwagon braked checked my wife and she ended up under the rear of a suburban. so no more vids on the Malibu.
@@dzlfreek saddest news I’ve heard all day. It was very helpful so I’ll miss your videos on it, but more importantly I hope she’s ok. God bless
Thanks from South Carolina. It word have costed me 1500 bucks. You saved my azz big guy. Appreciate ya
I did the same job on my 2013 Malibu-I live on a dirt road in Michigan-those hubs were a beast to get off!
I just replaced one of mine for the second time. I bought a "Hub Buster". You slam on that with an 8lb sledge, and it will persuadify that thing right off. Otherwise you are fighting a literal chemical weld. Another trick you can do is to completely remove the spindle and knock the hub out from the backside with a 5lb hammer and a nice thick punch, going round and round the circle.
Thanks for sharing! Thanks to you my daughter can save lot's of money for her car.👍
Thank you man I'm having that issue so now I know where to look on my malibu
JOSEPH CHAVEZ did this fix your issue because I’m having the same problem.
Thanks for all you shared,so now I will try and found out how much some will charge me
Thank you so very much... It was Exactly what I needed to know... You are the best
Need to show the work you talk and have more video of u driving. Glad u fixed your car.
Thank you! I'd give more but I'm doing this despite recovering from a rotator cuff surgery because I"m broke. But thisis the ifrst time I've given and it's because this is a fantastic, well done instructional video by a fellow "tree shade" mechanic! I posted a question just to clarify one part, but man, you do a great video!
thank you! Believe me, I know what its like to be broke.
Helped a brotha out by liking and subscribing. Just because I know what he’s going through 👌🏼
Man do I envy you and not having to deal with rust! Here on the east coast, if it's more than a year old, you are fighting!
When you put up the "moments later" thing, I thought you had my luck and was going to say that the fault light came back on! Lol
I no bro im in Ohio an mother father 6 months old an it's hell gettin off im jealous of him
Thanks you just saved me hundreds of dollars
Gracias por enseñarnos algo nuevo.... Quedo super...
very helpful your video my friend thank you!! you have another follower
THANK you so much sir... So entertaining
Great video! I have been having several issues and took my 2016 Malibu to be serviced and stabilitrac was one and they couldn't/didn't fix it because it didn't show up when they ran diagnostics. So needless to say I was under the impression that it was fixed come to find out it wasn't. Ugh, I nearly had a heart attack when they told me to bring it back in and was told if the code doesn't come through they can't touch it. I don't know why they don't listen to the customer and at least look when it directly states on the dash. I should just do it myself.
I’m having too many issues w my 16 Chevy Malibu 😢
Sweet video my dude!
No rust haha wishful thinking here in Minnesota! However Ive learned a heavy hammer mixed with rusted parts is a great way to release frustration
Thanks for the video. How did you know which wheel hub needed to be replaced? I recently replaced the rear driver hub because the bearings would buzzing so it was obviously bad. My stabilitrak light is on and I have no idea how to figure out which hub could be bad. Thanks!
Hey man, I’m catching your video after I swapped the bearing out. About how long did you drive before the sensor went off?
Have the same car just had a wheel bearing replaced. 64,000 miles. Love the car. Michigan car no rust.
80 yr old female ((they always see me coming!)). East coast central NY... 2017 Chev Express... 2nd offense in less than one year. Dropping it off tomorrow. 😟
I currently have this problem on the same side. I got quoted $300. I am going to give this a go in the next few days... Thank you.
300, isn't a bad price to replace the hub. but then ima cheap bastard and if I can do it for 100, well 200 bucks is 200 bucks, you know what I'm saying?
Thanks sir for your help ☺️ you are the best
Thank you very helpful
Good video I'm having the same problem and just came on tonight on my way home from work but I already have my wheel barrings/hub Replaced Back Tires...back in 2017.. Could in be I need to replace my front wheel bearings🤔🤔
Well done! 💪
What a great video! Girlfriend's car has the same error, my reader doesn't do ABS codes so not sure which hub is causing the issue. Even if I have to replace all 4 I'm still in for less than $300 so sounds like a good spring project in a month or two! Thanks!
I was raised to fix everything on a car, not take it to a shop. It was nice to see this video.🌵👍
Thanks it is very helpful
Looks like I'll be dealing with this same problem, great video, not looking forward to pulling the spindle down, I've replaced many hubs, but this one looks like it's going to be a pain in the azz.😟
Thx, brother. My wife Equinox popped up with this Stabili light. No engine light, so no code to pull. Just gotta figure out which wheel now.
My daughters equinox just developed the same error but not with the ABS light (check engine and Stabili Trac warning).
I just got this indicator in the cold weather as I was starting my car up. Seemed strange. I'll see if it's still there tomorrow.
Could you please tell us how did you know that was the right back side wheel bearing ?
My car did that and it was the wheel bearing I changed it and havnt had a problem since. Weird thing is it was my right rear one as well but I just changed both of them cause they were rusted
Mine just came on the other day driving in snow and I only have just shy of 84,000 miles thanks for the video definitely looks like an easy fix hopefully mine comes off that easily living in Maine
As Scotty Kilmer would say GM junk. Mines only at 70k and just got my second check engine light on which I need to check out.
Thanks my friend
How did you know which wheel hub needed replacing?
I got a 2011 Camaro SS and this same thing happen 1 week ago in the rain. I'm buying a Launch code reader to pin point which speed sensor. Also if you ever have to do ABS auto bleed check out youtube video and looks like code reader used is a MAXICHECK AUTEL it's about $180. Thank you for sharing this video. God bless.
Gracias por la information.
Good video, thanks for the information
Glad it was helpful!
Controllers have timers built in then and software to check for inaccurate signals, missing or erratic signal. The sensor are of several type but mild steel with a magnet and coil of wire. The circuit is checked by a low voltage drop, resistance but only while moving, seeing an erratic signal for a period of time before it sets a hard code.
The ring is magnetized in a radial fashion. It can attract rust, iron fillings, ferric oxides or anything that a magnet will pick up. No hard code, safely inspect and clean the ring with compressed air, rag pushed with a split paint stick or a simple round plastic brush. Air gap is crucial but most likely won’t change. It chunks are missing or small sections of chipping damage as this ring rotated, then replace. Lay a sheet of paper over magnetic ring and sprinkle iron fillings on it. You will see a pattern develop of lines away from the center very close together. It would be nice if the ring was sold with epoxy so it could be replaced, but no one does even though it has no index and thin as a refrigerator magnet and mostly the materials. Look up torque online or size/grade of bolt, but like in the video always use a torque wrench not colored torque sticks at tire shops! Ever! Not only damage to studs but over tighten and few can break lugs bug nuts loose on the road. Shame, I hate those stupid sticks and sold as time saver! Who? The tech as 1/2” drive impacts are different, air pressure and trigger time. Torque wrench in tool box, use that!

1 have a 2013 Malibu 3LT, and all 4 hub assemblies have been replaced. the 1st one went out at 40k miles. The last one just went out at 87k miles. My mechanic replaced all of the hub assemblies with lifetime warranty hub assemblies for about $360 each.
sweetthis confirmed my suspision. just changed the speed sensor at the wheel on our 2012 chevy cruze and it didnt go away and i said ill bet whatever the sensor looks at is broken or coming apart so i started searching and fnally found this video and i have no doubt this is my problem
I have the same issue with my 2015 Chevy Malibu LT but the difference is when you driving the stabilitrak signal flashing on dashboard and after a few minutes the engine start to loose power and stop. I have to restart the car to continue. Can you help me what’s going on please
I love your intro !!!!!😂😂😂😂
Thank you 🙏🏾
I believe you can purchase Timken bearing hubs that are not made in China. They are a lot more expensive then what you purchased, but the bearings last a lot longer.
Very nice guy !!!! Thanks
My camaro had the same issue but it was the abs sensors I’m sure I will have to do this in the future ..good job.. 👍
lets hope when the time comes we can find parts...
Correction, if you go to a autozone or advance and they have a good scanner that reads abs codes, they can scan the car and give you the code as to which hub is throwing the code. In my case, it was a C0050, right rear...
I was just there ...the code reader did not come up with anything
get a thinkdiag 2. With this scan tool it has bidirectional controls and you can read the different data streams for wheel speed sensors etc.
How you find out witch well was affected?
I have 2014 malibu and I have same problem been like that for few months just haven't fixed it
How'd you know which wheel?
#dzlfreak I found this highly encouraging! Now days I'm reluctant to wanting to try to fix any of these new card because i don't know what im getting into, but this helped alot even though i don't own one. Instead i was brought here from the grand am fuel filter change video. I got a 2004 Pontiac Grand Am SE1 and have to change the front struts and im not sure how to adjust the camber correctly so its not off kilter.
I have a 2016 chevy malibu with the antilock brake problem and the stability Trac. But I have a warranty that covers the antilock brake system..
Nice thanks sir
Your awesome dude...THANKS!!@
Had the same problem turns out there was a crack in the air intake hose attached closer to the engine there was a big crack in the hose causing all sorts of problems like Stabilitrak engine misfire car would shut off well idling
This is a great video! I'm planning to do this work myself today. But quick question about putting things back together. When you say you have to have the weight of the vehicle on the control arms before tightening their bolts to avoiding tearing the bushings out. - placing the jack on the lower control arm and raising it slightly to confirm the weight is on it is enough? Or does the jack need to be moved again to the upport control arm in some way also before tightening it's bolts? Just want to be careful...
best practice is to have the vehicle at ride hight, with the weight of the vehicle on all fours, then tighten the bolts. although, the jack under the lower control arm you could probably get away with.
Damn good job man I only wish you were a little more detail with the disassembling the wheel parts, calipers and etc. but thank you
Mitigated Gall ‘Dalmatian Nation first go the cheapest rout!!!! Change air filter regap/replace spark plugs!! Put good cleaner in fuel to clean fuel injectors as this will also throw these codes!! Yes, just computer shutting down asseceries
Like your style 👍
OK then!
Ami malibu primero se le prende el traking y luego de inmediato cambia a reducion de la potencia de el motor usted cree que esa falla la marque por lo mismos del tracks???
Rock on!
How can one identify which wheel is causing the issue?
I'm working on a 2011 Chevy Cruze and that has rear drum brakes. I was showing codes for both right and left rear speed sensors. I replaced both sensors and all the lights are still on. I'm pretty sure this is my problem that both rear wheel bearings are bad because this car has over 200,000 miles on it. And the wheel bearings do not feel good in it when I spin them
I’m helping ya brother. Mine just went after a heavy rain.
"getting too fat and too old" LOL That's my line!! Actually my late grandmother would always tell me when i was a kid, "don't get old kid" as she complained about her arthritis...cheers! Well I was about to suggest you could have disconnected the car battery to "reset" the warning light...that's what I had to do to our Camry, when they did an alignment the idiot lights were on...and when the mechanic "cleared" the light, it came on again...500 ft away from the shop...finally looked up online, you had to disconnect the battery to "reset" the calibration....go figure.
My other issue i discovered after replacing the front brakes is a mild grinding noise, only when i go in reverse...not sure why it would do it...as everything appears to be away from any thing...odd...unless i am not seeing it right...oh well have fun mr fix it...
I just brought a 2010 buick lacrosse with 43k miles, and I'm getting that service stabilitrak light and abs light. 🤷♂️
What if I have recently hit 100000 miles on my chevy malibu (2015) and while driving and switching lanes, the slippery road icon popped up and then then it says "reduced engine power" and said a maximum speed of 29mi allowed. I pulled over and restarted the car and was able to drive slower roads (still 50mi and hour) and it didn't pop up again. Shop is also quoting 600 based off just the engine power reduced notification.
My cheap scanner reads ABS codes. Just the wheel hub. Easy the change
great vid! ill be doing this soon any tips on how to identify which bearing?? i do gotta do my brakes soon. i guess ill have to take a look at the bearing
I took it to a local garage that didn't charge anything to clear the code. the tech told me what sensor was bad. you could do a visual inspection of the reluctor wheel on the bearing to see if that was bad.
Nice job. How did you tighten things up with the weight of the car on the control arm? Did you put the tire on and then tighten?
yes. you could also put the car on a jack stand at ride hight and tighten if the tire is in the way of fasteners. TBO, its been three years and Ive forgotten exactly how I did it.
Same thing happened to me on my 2011 Cadillac CTS. I live in Massachusetts so getting that hub out took hours. Ended up taking the whole knuckle out and beating the hub out from behind.
gotta love the rust belt
Are there 2 rear abs sensor/ speed sensor reluctor rings? Why not replace both? My light has been on since 36,000 miles
One on each unit bearing. The ring is part of the bearing.
Did you have power reduction and dying out on you?
So, the OBD code showed that it was just the driver's side wheel bearing? Or did you replace both rear wheel bearings? Thanks.
1:05 shop we took it to had the diagnostic tool they told me what bearing. So, yes. IF the scan tool can read powertrain and anti-lock modules
My Car Turn offf on me after filling out the Gas ⛽️ and i went get me a New Battery 🔋 so I replaced but when i drive it shows me that the Engine is Overheated , and my car Thermometer 🌡 keep go to High n then go back Low ,,, what should I do,?? I know it also has the Fuel Pump problem on my Truck 🛻 .. I ordered one but they sent the wrong one ☝🏽 so should i think is the problem cz I haven’t replaced it since the day they sent me the wrong Fuel pump . Or should the Oil be a problem of all that??
Way to go
Nice 👍
My ABS light isn’t on but my Service Stablitrack is and when I slow down has a little kick back at time. It will also cut off at stops and cranks right back up. Gets worse when driving more. Would this be it?
im not sure, but as I understand it (and I may be all wrong) stabilitrac uses the ABS to control wheel speed. The stall issue may not be related. The only way to know is to have the car scanned
Cool I like brother
How do I know wat hub is the going bad
Hay bro how would you know which wheel Bering it is because my 2013 Malibu lt turn on today and I hit a heavy rain storm and it turn on
you can visually check the reluctor ring or you can have it scanned.
Good ol hubby❤❤🎉
How can you tell which one needs to be replaced? My 2013 is throwing the same stabilitrak and lights! No shaking or anything though
Someone with a scan tool that can read the antilock brake module can pinpoint the wheel. A visual inspection can as well but requires that you get under the car and in a position to see the wheel bearing, where the reluctor ring is. Look for segments missing from the reluctor ring
