Lights failure and traction control system 
Solved
Chevrolet Captiva 2011 61000 miles
Around two months ago, I started having problems with my Captiva. When driving, the traction control service indicator turns on and the lights intensity is reduced; the radio and all the sounds in general start turning off and on and the battery's voltage is quite variable. No failure has yet been found in the agency. Any help?

Most of this type of vans have that manufacturing problem you are mentioning, but it is easy to solve it. You need to take it to an electrician and ask him to check the battery harness that leads to the computer, which usually has a bad contact. Either fix it or replace the harness and your problems will disappear. Hope it helps you.

Which is the harness you are talking about, MALINDA?

It is the harness that goes from the battery to the computer, and is like plastic tube that protects the wires so that there are no short circuits. Inside that tube, there are lots of wires of different colours. Each of them has a plug, which can get damaged, causing the intensity of the lights to be reduced or even the radio to be turned off. Hope your problem can be solved in an electrical workshop.

My 2011 captiva slowly stopped while running flat. I pulled over and shift the gear back to park mode. Tried to start but it gave a hard start. I tried to kicked the accelerator several times and it worked, the engine was revived. What seems to be the problem?😭
