I can see the shift cable popping off, the cable end grommet can fail over time. How old is the battery that is in the truck now from the sand rail? It has 14 volts not running? Max a battery should have is 12.6 maybe 13 volts with the key off.

The throttle body may need to be cleaned, if the base idle is too low when the voltage is low, the throttle body may not raise the idle speed enough. If you raise the idle speed the voltage should come up. You need to run a full diagnostic on all modules to check for that issue with the stabilitrak system.

The pcm controls the charging system and the idle speed. A full diagnostic check should be done to see if there are low voltage codes or a problem with the throttle body.

The ac is a load on the [engine](/topics-engine-chevy/), run a full diagnostic check on the vehicle, a shop will probably need to do that for you.

Understood, a shop would be best to check the whole system over and give you a straight answer on the charging system dropping out when the ac is on and abs system for the stabilitrak, that would require a scan tool check.
