Default Code Help Code C1217C BPSM problems.

I just bought this vette 3 weeks ago, (sorry guys, havent had time to post pics, Im too busy working to pay for it, haha.) But last weekend it through a code C1243. I looked it up and it says that the Brake Pressure Modulating Valve Pump stalled. I reset it and havent had that code since. Now tonight it through out C1217 BPMV Pump Motor Relay Contact CKT Open. If I reset it, it will come on immediately when I start to move again. I believe its prolly a wiring problem as both times, it was when i accelerated out of a corner and the car started to slip sideways a little bit. However if accelerating in a straight line the active handling came on normally (I am not an aggressive driving but actually have been testing out this system, as no other performance car I have had, has had TSC. Where is the BPSM pump relay located, and has anyone had this problem before? TSC is not working at all currently.

P.S. IT does sport aftermarket wheels and tires, and I was going to change them back to the original chrome 5 spokes because the front tires rub the fenderwell under extreme steering articulation. ANd the rear tires have 355's in the back. Could this be a problem for the traction control system?
