Reprogramming module should solve problem in Cadillac models

    Some 2006 Cadillac XLR-V sports cars built before VIN breakpoint 65601619, as well as 2007-08 models built prior to Sept. 1, 2007, may intermittently display Service Stabilitrak and Traction System Off messages on the driver information center.

    In addition, the traction control off indicator light may be illuminated with trouble code C0561 logged in the body control module (BCM).

    One likely cause for the troubles, says GM, is the electronic brake control module (EBCM) incorrectly receiving and processing the brake pedal position rolling count signal being transmitted from the BCM.

    Reprogramming the ECBM with updated software is the only surefire remedy. Check with a dealer for the specifics of the flash.

    "Factory Fixes" is written by Jim DePalma, a 30-year veteran of the auto repair business who has served stints as a service manager, parts manager and ASE-certified technician. His column provides vehicle manufacturers' authentic factory technical service bulletins (TSBs) that have been condensed for easier reading. Mr. DePalma advises that techs always check with a dealer or repair information system for the latest revisions before starting to work on a vehicle.
