Default Getting a Traction Control and ABS error on screen.

Anyone have any reason why it would do this???? Its done it twice today. Its done it once before when I almost ran out of gas, but for some reason, it is doing it again. Anyone have any clue why it would do this? Would it have anything to do with a low battery???

Please help!

Pull the codes from the computer.... See if you have communication lost messages.
-------just posted this earlier for someone else-----------------
I had the connector on the Maxi fuse get a little glazed over, not broken, just glazed on the connectors. Enough to cause the system to stop working once. Pulled the codes and the computer was full of Communication lost codes. So Figured it must be a fuse. replaced it and everything came back on-line. If your traction control and ABS lights are both on, check the Maxi fuse. If just one, try the mini fuse.

I will keep this short. I had that happen at 1,500 miles. Replaced the left front wheel sensor. At 3,400 miles it appeared again. Took it to the dealer last week. No code/"no problem". It appeared 2 days later and brought it to the dealer. They got the code. No C5 tech available. Left the car early yesterday and after 1 1/2 days they finally decided that the ABS module needed to be replaced. They had checked fuses and harnesses to no avail. Got the car this eve and got it home(3 miles and no abs/trac control icon lights). I hope this is all in the past. Nick
