The systematic study of harmonic self-maps on cohomogeneity one manifolds has recently been initiated in [\textit{T. Püttmann} and \textit{A. Siffert}, Math. Ann. 375, No. 1--2, 247--282 (2019; Zbl 1430.58011)]. In this article the authors investigate the corresponding Jacobi equation describing the equivariant stability of such harmonic self-maps. Besides several general statements concerning their equivariant stability they explicitly solve the Jacobi equation for some harmonic self-maps in the cases of spheres, special orthogonal groups and \(SU(3)\). In particular, they show by an explicit calculation that for specific cohomogeneity one actions on the sphere, the identity map is equivariantly stable.
