Default Swaybar light - Flash and ding

So this has happened several times in the last month or so. I'll be driving (2wd - usually around 80 - 100km/hr) and all of a sudden, I hear the "ding" tone and see the swaybar light come on briefly. I've searched but have yet to find a reason for this. Any insight is appreciated.

I know this happens when it seems like you're on the highway but do you have any problems disconnecting it and then reconnecting at in 4 wheel drive my guess is you have a ruby I have an X with the factory disco what year Jeep you have.

It's gonna just keep giving u problems.... Ur not the only one.... Save urself the same headache that some of us do and take this advice......

Buy this http://www.offroadevolution.com/stor...d=EVO-NOLIMITS

Then go on ebay and buy a "procal" for ur jeep (this corrects ur speedometer for bigger tires, clears codes, AND turns off that pesky sway bar light)

Cuz now ur disco is manual but it's just turn a knob and it's disco or no disco. Any DIY mechanic can install this too.

U will NEVER EVER see that light come on again! And but will have the security of knowing that ur not disconnected at 80km for some reason

Otherwise u will either keep going to dealers for warranty work or paying to fix electronic parts all the time..... Ur choice. I did it on the first sign of a problem with my electronic disco

Do you know if a superchip flashpaq will clear the sway bar light? Thanks

Do you get any gauge movement or just the swaybar light? I get flashing lights and gauge movement sometimes. No idea where that's coming from.
