yea, been doin this for a while and i have been putting off lookin anything up on it. i think i browsed the haynes manual but dint see much.
The Low-Trac light will come on randomly on perfectly dry roads, then the Anti-lock and trac-off lights will come on and stay on till i turn the car off/on. I just had an alignmnet done and changed the suspension back to stock and it seems like it is doing it more often. any ideas?

You might be having a short in your ABS or Traction sensors. I had a similar issue with my Daytona years ago where a short was causing the car's warning lights to come on without warrant. Your messing with the suspension could have caused the sensors to think that the traction is not equal on both sides.

U really have to get it diagnosed, it could be either the O2 or the Hub. Take it to your dealer and ask them to scan it. U can usually get them to scan it for free.

Sound, try the fuse, that's a good suggestion (start cheap). Similar situation happened to my wife's malibu (ABS light in dry conditions, but no SVS light), and it ended up being the hub. It's not the O2 sensor, if it was, the SES light would come on.

It can be your hubs, or possibly a shortage in something.
