My AdvanceTrac light is came on on my dashboard stating it needs servicing and it acts as though my power steering is out. It is very difficult to steer. Can you tell me what could be causing this?

Hello,

It sounds like you have an ABS wheel speed sensor going out which will cause the issue you are having. Here is a video to help you run the codes so you can see which sensor it is. Probably the front wheel bearing hub.

This video shows the job being done on a similar truck.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
