Trailer Sway Control; Conversions And Add-Ons; Add-On Electrical Equipment; Adding A Snow Plow Or Similar Equipment - Chevrolet 2011 Silverado 2500 Owner's Manual

2500 and 3500 series vehicles with
StabiliTrak have a Trailer Sway
Control (TSC) feature. If the vehicle
is towing a trailer and the system
detects that the trailer is swaying,
the vehicle's brakes are applied
without the driver pressing the brake
pedal. If the vehicle is equipped with
the Integrated Trailer Brake Control
(ITBC) system, StabiliTrak may also
apply the trailer brakes. The TCS/
StabiliTrak warning light will flash on
the instrument panel cluster to notify
the driver to reduce speed. If the
trailer continues to sway, StabiliTrak
will reduce engine torque to help
slow the vehicle.

accessories can affect the vehicle's
performance. See

Add-on equipment can drain the

vehicle is not operating.
