My 2010 Carmaro will not start. I have checked the volts on the battery and it read 12.2. Does any one know what could be the cause of this. The cables are tight on the battery and it looks good under the hood as well. I'm not able to check the starter at this time. The car keeps telling me to service stabititrack. Not sure what that has to do with the car not starting.

Check your fuses - if the fuse that controls the traction control/ABS module blew out the car likely won't start as a safety precaution. This happened to me, not on a Camaro but a different car

On my wife's truck, the engine won't fire up if the A/C compressor is unplugged. Strange, I know, but I've tested it time and time again... I'm assuming the compressor wires are part of a larger circuit that controls ignition as well.
With that in mind, I agree. Check your fuses.

It's embarrassed that it's a v6. It doesn't want to been seen on the road anymore.

I rode in a V6 Camaro. They aren't exactly slow.

Yep... prior to my new Challenger I had a '94 V6 as well as a '12 Charger. Neither was slow.

A cursory search suggests Throttle Body Sensor or, the following. It seems to be not infrequent in many models of late model year GM cars. Just a guess, from the Peanut Gallery.

A good Indie shop could read codes, if there are any, before you wander into a Chevy Dealer. I would skip the AutoZone OBC code reader and hit a good Indie shop first, for ammo at the dlr.

Some quick reading also suggests that when/if you get it going, one can disengage that Stabilitrak via a dash button; maybe check owner's manual.

Default Thanks

Thanks for all the help. I will check it out today and let you all know what I find out. It did this a week ago and then after a week it started will no issues and drove it for a day and half and now it will not start again. I hope its just a fuse.

Amazing, what a bunch of crazy wild guesses that aren't even in the ball park. First of all you don't give enough information for even a knowledgeable mechanic to attempt to make a suggestion, and it's because you don't know enough to explain the problem properly. Therefor your only hope is to get it to a tech who can resolve the issue for you.
Waiting for the correct answer in here and your car will die of old age.

As you said, not enough info was given; So how do you know that none of our wild guesses were in the ball park?
