The front left Hub Bearing on my 2000 Impala LS(3.8L), 91,280k mi., was bad, when the car was lifted you could shake the crap out of the wheel. Got it replaced and the car runs smooth. HOWEVER, now TRAC(Traction) turns off as soon as the car is turned on, the ABS light comes on and System Message: Service Traction System. I can't turn on Traction at all. If the light isn't there as soon the car is turned on, the light turns on as SOON as the car starts to move about an inch. The left Hub bearing just got replaced. It can't be a faulty part from the factory... I'm hoping. And SOMETIMES it's intermittent. I can't shoot the hub bearing itself(continuity[ohms]), it just shoots open(overload, infinite resistance) and I shot the wires back to the Electronic Brake control Module. The wires for the front left and right splice as one assembly back and the rear left and right HUBs splice as one assembly as well. The rear wires shoot good and the front ones shoot good. HAYNES manual has the schematics but they're pretty vague. So I'm asking for some other means of troubleshooting this problem. I'm not taking it to the dealer so they can make me bend over to pay an arm and a leg for this. SOMEONE HELP. FYI, before the Front, Left Hub bearing got replaced, I had the ABS light. SOMEONE HELP, losing my hair over this!!!

I had a similar experience where my ABS & Traction Control System shut down while driving. I own a 2001 LS. While driving on a sunny beautiful day, dry road, bells and whistles, Service Traction Control System, ABS light lit, Traction System shut down and could'nt be restarted. I went into a parking lot and restated the car. Doing this seemed to reset the problem and all was fine for a few miles when it happened again. I took the car to Mr Goodwrench. He found a bad wire harness going into the front right tire hub. The tips on the harness were a color green. He checked all the other hubs and all were fine with those conections. He replaced the wire harness on that wire, and afterwards all was fine. Check your harness tips. You might have a little corrosion. Goodluck. |

The whelen UHF2150B is the only type that wont disconnect your DRL. If you order it from Galls or Streichers, they will send it with a one sheet wiring guide to use it on non police model of impala. Basically shows your the 7 wires you need to splice to replicate what the quick connect on the police model would normally provide. It works great. Anyone know where to find this Diagram?

I just recently purchased a Chevy 00 Impala LS Automatic. I was driving on the interstate when my car suddenly wouldnt accelerate. It slowly died down. Then i pulled over to the shoulder to cut my car off. I restarted it put it in gear and it wouldnt move. I know absolutely nothing about cars, but it was driving perfectly then it just stopped. if any one could help me and tell me what they think it may be...i would so gladly appreciate it....thanks!!!
