| Every once in a while my ESB goes off while I am making a turn. It normally happens on clover loops when exiting a highway to a cross street. As far as I can remember it only happens on those right hand turns. My steering wheel looks very straight and when I let go it doesn't have a noticeable drift to either side on straight roads. I put a new trackbar in a while back so I assume the alignment is off barely. Is there anyway to fine tune this without going by the steering wheel being straight? Could something just be loose and causing it? | |

| That is your ESP trying to tell you you are taking a turn to fast, slow your roll! Mine does too, almost like the jeep is putting the brakes on when I don't want it to. | |

| FYI, I had this happen on mine too. There were a few sweeping turns that I could always duplicate it.
If you have a AEV pro cal, you can center the steering wheel with it. Or, if you have an Aeroforce interceptor gauge, you can actually see the degrees to the left/right and center your steering that way too.
The bottom line is that once I got it to ZERO, it went away. However, if you're driving like a crazy man, well, then it looks like the ESP should be on for you brother! | |
