Hi all
Bought a 2018 2500HD with the 6.4 a couple of weeks ago and I am so impressed with this truck.
I have an interesting issue going on and hoping some one here can help. When I am pulling my small utility trailer. (Single axle no trailer brakes) I get an intermittent service ABS/Traction control light. Once I disconnect the trailer the issue goes away. Now I'm no stranger to cars and trucks. I've been a professional mechanic for the last 30 years. I double checked the trailer for shorts, bad grounds, water logged lights etc. and it's fine. I also don't understand how the lighting system could cause an ABS issue. Our scanner at work needs updating and stops at 2017 so can't use it to find what code is setting. Have an appointment to take it to the dealer next week but thought I would pick the collective minds here.
Thanks in advance and thanks for such a great site. I've been pouring over it for the last week.
