Warning lights back on again
Last week I asked for help inreference to all of the warning lighting up like a christmas tree. Someone said the battery was bad. Sure enough I brought the car back to the battery store and it was bad. It was changed last Saturday. While driving my vette today, I ran across a speed bump, and all the warning lit up again, including all the gages and the radio went off like no power was feeding it. If you turned the ignition switch off and back on everything came back to life. A short while later the same thing happened again. It's almost like I am losing a ground or something. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Check those battery connections and the crimps on the cables themselves, then do the same things at the starter solenoid which is where all the power comes together. Do not forget that its electrically hot down there. Its also very possible your iginition switch might be having issues to. Bill Curlee as an excellent write-up on repairing it in the sticky.

Went to Auto Zone and the battery is good, cleaned all the grounds, battery connections etc. Car is still showing the same codes. Checked the connections on the BCM and they were good. The BCM is not damp, Loss for words.

Not posting codes tells us nothing. Based on your symptoms, it could possibly be the ignition switch...or wiring in the left according tube.
