Uh oh, TCS/ABS problem...
Driving through Waimanalo this afternoon & hit a pot-hole square on the left side. About 30min later I got the following DIC message:
Service ABS, Service Traction Control System.
I pulled over, ran a BIT, & received the following code:
28 TCS C1232 H
Looks like that translates to: LF Wheel Speed Circuit Open or Shorted.
Could that pot-hole have knocked something loose? Any idea where to start looking???
TIA & Big mahalo!!!

Well here's what I did, does my initial trouble-shoot make sense???
1) Ran BIT to check for codes again... Code C1232 H still present.
2) Checked engine compartment, ABS component connections, etc... All good.
3) Checked applicable ABS fuses... good.
4) Disco'd battery
5) Removed LF wheel.
6) Checked wheel sensor wiring & connection. Disco'd & reconnected the sensor plugs then reconnected the battery.
7) Cleared code.
8) Took car out on a short "FCF". Did some hard accel & stopping... No DIC messages/codes. Car handled great as always.
9) Re-ran BIT, no codes for TCS now.
Is there anything else I should check?
TIA & Mahalo!!!

I've on occasion gotten my TCS/AH lights to come on when pulling off the highway. For some reason they would come on when I pull onto the shoulder...and they would be gone when I restarted. Hopefully you just had that happen and got lucky.
I'd say keep driving and see what happens and if any other codes come up. Hopefully you're good

Boomah's Problem..
Your EBTCM (control module) shut down your TC & ABS because it "sensed a problem" from your left wheel sensor (pot hole shock!)...if the left wheel sensor checked out OK, then reseting the DIC code(s) should be all you need to do. That's the Vettes way of telling you "it would appreciate your missing those pot holes"...
