Well If you guys don't remember back in early Dec. I had a problem with my lights coming on and off like a X-mas tree in the middle of a snow storm. Well after a started it up a drove it a couple of times they never came back on, well until today. I was cleaning the car and listening to the radio. When I started to hear my chimes. I knew I was low on gas and thought that was the problem but I looked anyway and when I did my Trac off light was on and my ani-brake and service engine light came on. So I turned my car off and back on, and when I did my low Trac light came on and that was it for about 30 seconds then that light went out and all the others came back on. What the hell is this poop any idea what this could be?

take it to your local GM dealership and have them hook the TECH2 up to it and see whats wrong.

The only time I was in the dash or close to it was this time last year putting my radio in. I didn't take it to have it scanned cuz when I posted the light problem last time a few people had the same prob in the same type of conditions, and they went away also. I'm going to day to auto zone or advansed auto to have them scan it. I don't have the cash to have GM do it.

Well I went to the place that I bought my car and they put the computer on it and it detected nothing. Even with the service engine light on. They told me to take it to GM and have them do it so I guess I know were I'm goping to be on monday.

are your symptoms the same as mine were? low speed parking lot maneuvers cause trac and brake lights to come on/off almost randomly as well as antilocks engaging?

thats what mine was doing... after one crack job fix after another... took it to a different dealership and they replaced the wheel speed sensor... never happened again.

You neld it. It was my right fron speed sensor. I didn't get it fixed yet they wanted 291.00 for the part and 55.00 to fix it is this good price.
