Default ESP/BAS warning light...

Anybody had this warning light come on? It says in the book to get to your dealer for service. Its about 35 miles to the dealer. Ok to drive???

Thanks

Welcome to the site!

Before you get flamed, I suggest you use the search function of the forums. There are many many many threads on this subject.

The first two questions you will be asked are:

1) Is the suspension stock?
2) Is the steering wheel straight?

I've had the ESP light come on my truck after mudding and a couple other times after running through standing water. I turned it off and let it sit a hile. When I cranked it back up, all as good!

Thanks for the advice. I got to reset and everything seems fine. It hasn't come on again.

With all respect everytime I drive across Kansas I get the lights. The constant Kansas 40 mph wind forces me to tack the JK into the wind resulting in long distances of driving with the steering wheel off center. Once through Kansas after two times of turning the engine off and on the lights extinguish by themselves. This has never happened in Missouri as we just don't get those winds. The worst part of Colorado for me is driving across Kansas to get there!
