Default New Corvette owner with Error Codes

I just purchased a 2001 Corvette last week (no warranty). A few days ago it started displaying several error messages:
Service Vehicle Soon
Charge System Fault
Service ABS
Service Active Traction
Service Torque Management

I pulled codes and received the following:
10-PMC P1637 H
28-TCS C1237 H
60-IPC B0516 H
A0-LDCM B2252 H, B2282 H, B2284 H

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.

The codes you pulled are "history" codes, as in the problem is no longer present. As far as your Service codes you are getting, I don't know if they are related to those specific history codes. First step would be to clear the codes and see if anything returns. If you have a problem, it will come back. There are some other threads about your service codes

This site should help narrow it down if they come back: http://www.stengel.net/diccodes.htm All of your history codes appear to be electrical, I got many of those codes as well as 10 more when I changed my battery. I cleared them out and none came back. Hopefully yours is an easy fix as well.

Thanks for the information. How do you clear out all the codes? I'm still reading through the owners manual and threads for instructions on how to do this.

Make sure the battery is good and hasn't leaked.

Youv'e got a lot of reading to do.

You need to clear all the codes drive the car and read and post your DTC codes again.


This is the absolute best C5 Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) web site!!!

www.corvettedoctor.com

Go to “technical data base” and then to “Corvette ECM Computer Codes”. Then select your year car. Read the instructions and then scroll down to the "READ MORE" window to view the code definitions.\

Here is another very good site:
