Default ABS/Active Handling/Traction Control problem

I recently had two computer modules replaced in the ABS. About a month later the display indicated that the ABS, active handling and traction control need to be serviced. When I took it in, the repair shop could not find anything wrong. The shop thought it was probably just a glitch. They reset the car and the problem went away for about a month, but now the display is telling me that I need to service it again. I haven't noticed any difference with the handling of the car since the computer modules were replaced. Has anyone else had this problem?

Run the codes and post them here. To run codes turn on ignition and push and hold the options button, then while holding the options button push the fuel button 4 times. This will start the On Board Diagnostic system. The codes will displayed on the DIC one subsystem at a time starting with the Powertrain subsystem followed by the ABS subsystem, etc.

You are posting to a 10 year old thread. Start a new one of your own and post the codes you have now. The C1295 indicates a brake light problem. If you get this code it will disable traction control and active handling.
