Question
Recently I have been having a few service lights and electircal issues arise, and wanted to get your thoughts. The car is a 99 FRC, and the problem is as follows:
driving along, and EVERY trouble light comes on - abs, service engine, all gauges pegs quit except spedo and tach, low tire pressure, reduced engine power, seat belt, traction control, and my windows quit as well.
I have been told my my shop that it is most likely the Body control module, which is going bad - what do you think? I have an extended warranty on the car, so I am not too concerned, but want to get an idea of what I am dealing with first.
Thanks for any help.

The very 1st thing is to make sure your battery is fully charged. Then electrical connection to the BCM. After that you're probably looking at a computer on it's way out.

Check that battery first - strange things can happen when it goes bad.
