Hey everyone. Just joined now. I have a 2006 Durango Limited 5.7L that I just purchased 2ish months ago. Since I bought it, the ESP, or traction control, has been activating when it shouldn't. I technically know when it should and shouldn't activate, I have an associate's degree in auto technology, and I worked in a Chrysler shop for a year as a level one Chrysler tech. That being said, I understand I don't know everything, and would appreciate it if you could correct me on anything I'm thinking wrong on.

Anywho, the ESP flashes and activates while I'm turning either direction. I wasn't too worried when there was snow on the ground and the wheels could have slipped a little without my noticing, but now it's doing it even more and on dry pavement. Any ideas? I've also had it lose my radio presets, and change the seat and pedal adjustments after shutting it off for a little while. I have the seat memory programmed and everything.

I guess what I'm wondering is this. Do these issues sound related? Does it sound like a module issue, or wiring, or something else?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

There's about a billion TSB's out, several involve reflashing the associatied modules. I found a couple for the seats and one for ESP activating when it shouldn't. The one for the ESP is in the electronic devices section at the link below. Knock yourself out....
