Warning lights!
Yesterday on my way to work, the "Anti-Lock," "Low Trac," and "Service Vehicle Soon" lights lon my 2001 came on at the same time. Is this something that has to be corrected by a dealership, or can it be fixed at home? Also, the factory cd player will not accept cds. The radio and everything else works, but says "Check cd" when I try to insert one. Is the whole thing junk now, or can it be fixed? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Search button's the second to last one up there.
Why would you take anything to a stealership? Find real automotive shops in your area. It's a wheel hub that needs replacing, by the way.
Get an aftermarket headunit if your stock one crapped out. They're cheap, and far superior in every way.

The dash lights is probably a speed sensor in a wheel hub. The radio can be fixed by going here - http://www.crutchfield.com

my lights came on and all i could reallly find was that one of the sensor wires was just hanging so i zip tied it in place and after a couple trys the lights didnt come back on after running it for a bit, could the dangling wire really have triggered all that

yes thread jesus, it could. mine does the same, and all of the wires look fine, one just gets pinched or something when i turn the wheel. theres no way to really see whats inside the wire casing. could be frayed or broken.

he did nothing wrong, yeah, i'd imagine it could cause that. just make sure you know that the wire is most likely internally damaged now though and the lights will come back.
