Sounds like the cam position actuator. It's not a throttle body, so don't waste your money. The actuator is behind the timing cover. Ii could be a pretty involved repair.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

is the cam position actuator the same as the cam position sensor I just replaced?

 

No. The cam actuator is mounted on the cam sprocket itself. You have to remove the front timing cover to access it. Chances are that it is stuck in the advanced position. Make sure oil is clean also.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

I been fighting with this p0011 code too, first I did the same I changed the cam position sensor then it was fine for a week then the code came back , then this last Monday I replaced the cam position actuator magnet behind the waterpump, then today the service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control message came on then went off when I scanned it the code was there but no check engine light.

It got 195k on it

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Do you have the part number for the Cam position actuator solenoid? This is going to be next on my list.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Cam position actuator magnet #12585995

cam position actuator seal # 12594339

water pump gaskets x2 # 12588372

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

I keep getting this service stabiltrack servce traction control light show every 200 miles after getting off from the freeway. I drained about 1/4 quart of oil since I had too much. My battery is at 12.45 volts when off. I ordered a new throttle body and maf sensor because they weren't that expensive and it probably needs it anyways with the 156k miles I have. I also ordered Cam position actuator magnet #12585995, cam position actuator seal # 012594339

water pump gaskets x2 # 12588372 for the mechanic to install them. If this doesn't work I am taking it to the dealer for a $100 diagnosis. Perhaps the timing chain is stretched-- basically I am throwing parts at this truck.. not good.



Is the cam position actuator magnet hard to replace? If there another solenoid I am missing other than the cam position actuator magnet and cam posisition sensor?

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

my buddie called me today sad the service stabiltrack traction control message flashed then went off so im assuming the p0011 came back, the only thing left is the oil control valve , cam phaser or low oil pressure.

I changed the maf sensor, throttle body and no luck. Next step another oil change, crankshaft position sensor, camshaft magnet. Does the 2007 escalade have an oil control valve? Also I noticed I have an oil leak this may or may not be related. I will also switch back to an ac delco air filter from an oil K&N filter.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Or a streched timing chain or power control module or bad wiring or..

Please let me know what the part numbers are for the oil control valve or cam phaser. I appreciate it. It's nice to be in the same boat..

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

ya the oil control valve is the cam bolt

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

the cam position sensor and actuator magnet is easy to replace

1) REMOVE intake tube

2) remove water pump belt

3 ) remove the belt tensioner on the water pump and the one next to the alternator

4) remove water pump held in with 6 10mm bolts you dont need to take the hoses off the pump i had
room to move it forward

5 ) cam actuator is held in with 3 10mm bolts and cam sensor 1 10mm bolt

the whole process took 1 hour to do

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Basically so far we have changed a cam position sensor which doesn't help anything a cmp actuator magnet with is cheap to fix but may not solve the problem (I am doing this tomorrow)....Next step would be to open the timing cover and change CMP Actuator Solenoid Valve (oil control valve) and the CMP actuator itself...

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

My 07' is at about 95k when this happened to me, but I was far from home on vacation in Niagara Falls NY, first got the CEL drove to autozone and they scanned my Truck and it came back as a rich 02. No problem I said to myself just a bad batch of Gas and headed to Our next town, after a few fill ups and now in Williamsburg Va. I got the Stabilitrack and Traction control lighting up on my dash so I stopped into a Cadillac Dealer nearby they scanned the truck again with the same codes....rich 02 he clears the codes and I say to myself "what are the odds of getting bad gas twice??" considering I was putting gas from good gas stations (BP, Shell, Exxon) So I head out finishing the tailend of our East Coast Vacation we get to Somewhere at the Georgia state line and on the Hiway the truck just looses all power and dies out on me!!!! by this time I'm thinking wow did I wipe out an 02 sensor??? I limp it to a gas station top the truck off and no problems till Dustin Beach Fla. and then in Roswell N.M. where I find another GM dealer the scan it and the code comes back P0011 Crank sensor and whatever codes follow, They don't have the sensor in stock and I proceed to call my Dealer in Albuquerque and tell him what happened and proceeds to tell me "oh yea we change those all the time at 100k" He also ask me if my oil level is ok because the level will also cause this problem. I tell him the oil is fine and start to ask him if he can look up what type of oil they installed before my trip because the Tech installed one of those static labels on the windshield and it read 3k miles earlier than my expected service. He looks it up and the bastards used conventional
oil instead of synthetic oil. So here I am back in New Mexico in Roswell three hours away Albuquerque just finished driving 5800 miles on 3000 mile oil.
I just changed the crank sensor and still have the stalling problem but no codes, Ill be changing the oil today and give an update.

Were you ever able to find out exactly what the issue is. I have a 07 and have been having this issue for 4 years?

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Drove the Caddy yesterday and still have the problems without the traction control light or CEL so no codes. Watching the scanner and only thing I can see is timing dropping when the truck dies out.Hmmmm

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

I will probably take it in soon since it drives like a dream only this code p0011 pops up every 300 miles. The dealership needs to hook up a scanner and see what the problem is. It could besolved by a reprogram.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

FRISBEE & Rustico, I'm looking forward to your updates, and I'm only an email away at Katie_Lucille@gmexpert.com if you need any further assistance along the way.

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Just had the check engine light come back on and all 4 codes were rich o2, checked fuel pressure and it was waaayyy past 100 psi. One of three things now to check 1. fuel regulator 2. fuel pressure sensor 3. fuel pressure module cant figure out why sensor didn't kick out a code. Also wondering if its under an emissions warranty, guess I'll crack the book open and see.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

8/80 on Emissions.....never mind.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

I am having almost the same problems. I am getting the p0011 code and my my oil pressure light is staying on constantly. I brought it to the dealer and they are telling me they believe I have a bad oil pump and have to do a engine tear down to diagnose the problem. There is no motor knock or anything it seems to run fine like your trucks. I don't get why with that code they have to tear the motor down. Plus I asked them if they tested the oil pressure and they said no these are the steps needed to take to diagnose the problem based on bulletins set by cadillac. Any ever hear of that before?? I will also post updates as the repairs go along so maybe it will help everyone else on here and I have 59,500 miles!!! Is this something that is random or something that could of been going on for awhile. I always done synthetic oil changes. I bought this truck last year and only put 5,000 miles on it since last April. I don't drive it much at all it basically sits.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

I just ordered a Delphi Fuel Pump assy. The only way you can get a regulator (sux) perfectly good running pump but its the only way to get it. Should be here Wednesday and hopefully I can install it same day. That p0011 code came up once along with the other codes p0615, p0175 & p0172
fuel pressure is out of control high and drops like a rock when off so I'm about 99% sure its the regulator. Got no help from local dealers or mechanics since it's a not so common problem with this truck or not willing to share their experiences.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

After the dealer tore down the engine they are saying that the oil pump is bad and that they can't test the oil pressure accurately and that's why they haven't tested it. There is a bearing issue or something and there is oil starvation due to the screen in the oil pump being clogged and this is due to not performing oil changes. But there is not damage at all to the motor even with me driving it like that and this is what is the underlying cause to why the code p0011 and the traction control, stabilitrack cel is coming on. It makes even less sense to me now especially when there was no knocking or anything the engine ran perfect and there still is no damage after driving with it 20-30 mins.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

If its under warranty, i would request replacing the whole engine for sure. Once a bearing is bad its never the same.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

replaced the fuel pump module, pressure is back to normal and no codes. That fix it for me. Good luck blkEsc.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

well my buddie took his Escalade into to Cadillac today, he said they couldn't figure it out they test the electrical part of it and said that was working they said they never seen this problem before and told him to bring it back tomorrow that they would have to call Gm tech line.

 

Re: 2007 Escalade ESV Service Stabilitrak & Service Traction Control Lights Code P001

Chevy Racer, do you only have the p0011 code coming up? The cam magnet replacement and 3 x 500 mile oil changes didnt work for me either.
