Default "Service ABS" and "Active Handling"

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I got these warnings the other day, which occasionally happens. I've always been able to restart the car and the warnings would go away, untill three days ago. Two days in a row I got both these warnings and could not get rid of them, so I had to drive with them ON!!! Truely pissed me off that an exspensive car like ours would have this glitch in the computer. To my surprise the warnings went away after I filled up the gas tank. So now I have a theory that perhaps the low fuel level and these warnings have something in common, maybe a bad ground or something. So if anyone else sees these warnings, let us all now if filling the fuel tank solves the problem.

This can be associated with low brake fluid or the low brake fluid sensor/float sticking. I am sure others will chime in with more ideas...

I seriously doubt the low fuel condition has anything to do with the "ABS" and "Active Handling" warnings. Why guess at the cause when you can simply see what DTC(s) were set when the warnings occured? The DTC(s) will tell you exactly where to look.

The same thing happened to me. The ABS light came on, then would go off and finally last week it stayed on.
I took it into COH and they hooked it up to the computer and found it was a bad EBCM Module (F10343433). It is located just behind the radiator under the upper radator hose.
It is an expensive part but luckily it was covered under the extended warrinty.
Good luck.

Had the same indication some months ago. Dealer replaced the EBM P/N 10343433, luckily I was still under warranty. GM Parts Direct lists the cost at $742.54 and their price as $423.25

I doubt is something that's going to be easy to fix on your own. Good luck.
