Traction Control Light will flicker like I am slipping when it is not.

[Choraq]

I have been searching the inter-webs and this forum to see if anyone else has seen this issue but have had no luck. Hoping someone can relate or point me in the right direction Just made an appointment for Monday with the Dealer.

My Gladiator Rubicon with just 2,200 miles has the small traction control light flicker while driving. It usually happens while accelerating and I am roughly in the 3rd to 5th gear range.

I was at TrailHero last week and I definitely hit a few rocks but I can't see anything lose underneath.

Thanks for any help

Is your steering wheel centered? Do you have any modifications?

Check that your fuses are fully seated, just a thought, and a quick and easy thing to do.

Check your tire pressure. If they are not equal and if they far enough out, the wheels will be turning at a different speed and could trigger it.

I took it to the dealership this morning and I noticed that the wheel was off-centered. Looks like my alignment might be off.

I have the Mopar lift kit with 35s.

Good idea. The TPMS are all showing equal pressure but worth double checking. Thanks,

Having just gone through this, if the steering wheel is X degrees out of centered, the vehicle unstable idiot light will start flashing above a certain MPH.

No, I didn't try to look up either of the limits.

Thanks man, I had the alignment done just after I did the lift but I am guessing I knocked it out while off-roading. I appreciate the insight.

Just to wrap this up. I got the Jeep back from the service department. It had a loose track bar and the alignment was out. Thanks, Trail Hero. (Would do it again)

Jeep has been driving great since.
