Default Need help with codes

I was getting alot of codes and found that my battery was leaking. I cleaned it up and all but 4 codes have gone away. And my dash lights and turn signals are screwed up. The codes are

C1226 RF Excessive Wheel Speed Variation
C1281 Steering Sensor Uncorrelated Malfunction

B2578 RF Turn Signal Monitor Circuit
B2583 Lf Turn Signal Monitor Circuit

The first two have Traction Control message and ABS message come up. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
BobbyB

Well I unplugged and cleaned the RH wheel sensor plug and drove the car about 20 miles and now I only have 3 codes.

C1281 about a steering malfunction
and the 2 codes about my turn signals.

Anyone know?

any problems with your a/c? reason i asked is that a leaking battery will destroy vac lines, wiring and the computer on the p side floor. all kinds of wacky things happen. the repair info is on this site. have you looked in the access port (i think it is in the p side front wheel well) to check? sorry, i haven't had the problem myself but there is plenty of info on this site. try a search on leaking battery for starters.

good luck!
