Read you codes and monitor it for a while to see if it happens again. fishslayer143@yahoo.com 11-15-2009, 05:44 PM what could cause this? it says service abs and active handeling...but when i got home and turned the car off then back on the abs traction light did not come back on...could it have been a faslt alarm? has anyone had this happen to them? any advice?:toocrazy: when you turn car off and on it reset it may happen again radioflyer97 11-15-2009, 07:00 PM The C5's computer is sensitive to shocks (like potholes and RR tracks) Sometimes the shock of a rough road can cause a temporary disconnect of the computer to the sensors. solidgold 11-16-2009, 10:18 AM You hit the nail on the head with that statement Radioflyer! Lethal Tendencies 11-18-2009, 04:07 AM Happened to me once backing out of the driveway .Never came on again.I wouldn't worry about it unless it comes on and stays on jgillen1 11-18-2009, 05:32 AM do you still have any message on your display? if so, exactly what does it say? don't leave anything out!! also, pull your codes. see which codes are current. besides your wheel sensors, you may also have a problem with your ebcm, not uncommon with c5's but a fairly easy problem to fix. PreacherNutshot 11-18-2009, 08:12 AM If it's reoccurring it could be your steering position sensor (as it was in my case) or a wheel speed sensor (as has happened to others). Pray for a wheel sensor, the SPS requires a majority-of-the-dash removal. comp-spec 11-18-2009, 12:03 PM The C5's computer is sensitive to shocks (like potholes and RR tracks) Sometimes the shock of a rough road can cause a temporary disconnect of the computer to the sensors.

Very true, I have hit speed bumps too fast before and that light will come on. Then when I turn the car off and back on again the light is gone! | |
