Esp malfunction - Grand Cherokee Jeep Cars & Trucks

The ESP (Electronic Stability Program) light turns on in a 2010 Journey when the system detects a fault or error with the vehicle's stability control system. This can be caused by a variety of issues, such as a faulty wheel speed sensor, a malfunctioning steering angle sensor, a problem with the ABS system, or issues with the traction control system. In some cases, a low battery voltage or a loose connection can also trigger the ESP light to turn on. It is recommended to have the vehicle diagnosed by a professional mechanic to identify the specific cause of the issue and perform the necessary repairs.

Check under drivers door sill step. There is a spice I believe the wires are red or pink in color. The splice will be wrapped in black hockey tape looking stuff.
