Buick 2000 manual DIC Personal Choice Programming

SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM - 54: If you ever see the SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM message, it means there may be a problem with your stability enhancement system. If you see this message, try to reset the system (stop; turn off the engine; then start the engine again). If the SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM message still comes on, it means there is a problem. You should see your dealer for service. Reduce your speed and drive accordingly.

STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE - 55: You may see the STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message on the Driver Information Center. It means that an advanced, computer-controlled system has come on to help your vehicle continue to go in the direction in which you're steering. This stability enhancement system activates when the computer senses that your vehicle is just starting to spin, as it might if you hit a patch of ice or other slippery spot on the road. When the system is on, you may hear a noise or feel a vibration in the brake pedal. This is normal.

When the STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message is on, you should continue to steer in the direction you want to go. The system is designed to help you in bad weather or other difficult driving situations by making the most of whatever road conditions will permit. If the STABILITY SYSTEM ACTIVE message comes on, you'll know that something has caused your vehicle to start to spin, so you should consider slowing down.

DIC are determined by the transmitter used to enter the vehicle. Each remote keyless entry transmitter was pre-programmed to belong to DRIVER 1 or DRIVER 2 and is numbered on the back. After the button with the unlock symbol on a remote keyless entry transmitter is pressed and the ignition is in RUN, the DIC will display the identified driver and recall the settings previously programmed for that driver. The settings can also be recalled by briefly pressing one of the MEMORY buttons located on the driver's door.
