Traction control and abs lights on
Pulled existing codes that show as current. P1571 under 10- PCM and U1040 under 60- ipc. There are no other codes coming up. Please help!

Lights have been on for quite awhile now. At first start up they may come on then go off then come back on again. While driving they do blink on and off once in awhile. They may blink sometimes while hitting a bump.

The B codes indicate you have a voltage supply problem. P1571 indicates the PCM isn't receiving a Desired Torque signal from the EBTCM. How that works is the PCM sends a voltage level to the EBTCM and when the rear wheels ares starting to slip the PCM toggles the signal to ground which tells the PCM to reduce torque. The U code might not mean anything. They are sort of common and don't usually mean much.
The B codes indicate there is an issue with the B+ supply to the left side door modules. Typically if there was a battery or other common voltage issue you would see codes for both doors. The P1571 code can also be caused by a voltage supply problem to the PCM or EBTCM.
Typically you only get one problem at a time. You seem to have 3 at one time. Very unusual unless there is a common issue causing all 3. Although the right side door isn't showing a voltage issue I think you may have a voltage level problem. I think you should check your battery voltage level with a DVM in the underhood electrical center, also check the battery ground at the frame. Check battery cable connections to see if they are corroded. If there is an issue with the voltage level/ground that just might clear up your issue.

I 100% agree with Bill D. Have the battery checked out. Low battery voltage can cause some very strange problems in the C5. Car will start with No Load voltage of 12.2 or less but the electronics in the car do not like No load voltages that low. Many of the electronics begin go through diagnostic procedures when you turn the key on and the EBCM is one of those. Battery and grounds are the place to start with this problem.
Thx again all!
