What just happened

So my 2015 dcsb was parked in the driveway. I got in and started it, then moved it forward to pull it in the garage. Thats when i heard a grinding noise. I looked down and a light on the very bottom of the spedometer flashed. It happed too quick for me to see which indicator it was. I proceeded into the garage and nothing else happened. What could this have been? i cant find any diagrams with all the indicators. Any ideas?

 

Could be anything from the seatbelt light to the abs light. Who knows.

Is the truck an auto? Or were you just grinding gears in a manual?

Also, the manual has all the indicator lights in it and it describes each and every single one.

 

I belive it was and yello/orange light

 

Should be a diagram in your owners manual.

 

ABS system check?

 

you didnt accidentally have it in 4wd?

 

Did you go over a bump that made the wheel lose traction momentarily? If so, traction control.

 

None of the lights under the spedo should cause grinding

 

No just checked

 

no oil in motor? hope not

 

Lol im about to go check that now

 

Does your driveway have a slight incline?

 

Subd for outcome

 

now that you mention that i think i know the exact issue.

if your car is on an incline, let off the brake, the truck has a feature where it tries to engage the brakes and it will cause this grinding noise.. its basically the anti rollback feature.. very familiar with it.

 

Did you run over something?

 

Oils good just took truck for a test drive everything seemed normal

 

I think that might be it. The driveway is at a slight incline and it happened right after i put it in drive.

Mine does this too, nothing to be worried about, its the traction control.
