Slip and VDC light coming on?!!!
Slip and VDC light coming on?!!!
I have an interesting problem that started this pastSunday on the way home from Cape Canaveral.
I took the car to the dealership to get the pads/rotors replaced 2weeks ago and they fixed the fuel line recall as well then I picked it up and went straight to airport so I didnt start driving it again until Monday.
Well Sunday I went out to SunCruz and am coming back when the Slip and VDC off lights both pop on. I wasnt overly alarmed because I remember this happening to Todd on long trips right after he got his new rims, but I'v made this drive many times as well as other long drives since I'v had my rims so it seemed odd nevertheless. Anyways, as with Todd's situation, when you turn the car off and back on it goes back to normal. But it was been doing it on almost every drive since and the car almost drives as if VDC is off all the time.
Anyone have an idea on what this could be? What could OI have done to cause this??

the tire pressure sensors will not cause the slip and vdc lights to come on, but the speed sensor/ axle sensors being unplugged can
i think i remember it coming on the first time right after I hit a big bump to go on one of those bridges....maybe they didnt plug it in all the way and I knocked it loose.
Seem feasible? that would explain why I had no problems until 5days after I got it back

I would just jack up the car a little and see if one of them popped out. It would be a waste to go to the dealer for something you could possibly remedy yourself in less than five minutes. The wheel speed sensors are very easy to get to.
LOL. You mean he's not already.

There you go. Hey Wes, where can I buy one of those monkeys? And to think all I wanted was a stupid Lemur. Your monkey blows it away!
