Default 28 TCS Code

So, this morning, I started her ('02 A4 Coupe, 34K miles) and she started flashing "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, ABS and ACTIVE HANDLING" at me. (Active Handling seemed to be operational on the way to work when I switched settings, though.) This has happened twice now, about a year ago and again in mid-May this year. Each time, after driving, shutting her off, then starting later, the words are gone and all is well. I ran the code this morning and it was 28TCS C1214H, which means Solenoid Valve Relay Contact or Coil Circuit Open. Is this a grounding issue?

Thanks for any help.

BTW, my '64 is much easier to work on.

Hi Dave - many have this type of problem, so here's a link to a single post on the topic - http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-t...ode-c1214.html

If that doesn't help try an advanced search of just the C5 forums with a search on c1214, and you'll find loads of posts

Thanks poolboy, I sent a pm to tstar to see if he still has the procedure for cleaning the grounds.
