Did you reset all those codes and look for resets? Can't believe any car can have that many issues going on. Some of those may be set from some other issue or code being set. Only way to know is to clear them all, drive the car and see if any DTCs come back.

C1296 – Brake Pressure Sensor / Master Cylinder Pressure Sensor Circuit

Sensor is on BPMV. There could be a short to ground or a low 5V reference signal to the sensor. There could still be an issue with the sensor itself or the EBCM. If it is the EBCM ABS Fixer will probably not be able to fix this issue. Can't just replace a relay to fix this.

B2285 Battery #2 Circuit
Again something related to a potential low voltage issue.

B2287 Mirror Position Sensor Circuit

One of the first tests performed in the diagnostic procedure for this code is to check the 5V ref signal. Again another voltage issue.


C1296 Master Cylinder Pressure Sensor Circuit
See above

U1064 Loss of Communications with BCM

C1214 Sol Valve Relay Contact or Coil CKT Open
??Bad EBCM $150
This could be a bad relay or just a low input voltage from the battery. If the relay is bad then you may be able to get it fixed.

C1294 Brake Lamp Switch Circuit Always Active
Possible causes of this DTC are the following conditions:


The stop lamp switch circuit is shorted to voltage.



The stop lamp switch is misadjusted.



The stop lamp switch is stuck closed.



A brake pedal that is binding.



Both brake light bulbs are burned out.


B2285 Battery #2 Fault
??Possible low battery or corroded terminal. Yes, however, the diagnostic checks all of these potential problem areas:
The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.
2. This test verifies if the vehicle's Starting/Charging system is functioning properly.

3. This test verifies if the door module is functioning properly.

6. This tests for a short to ground in the door lock actuator control circuits.

7. This tests for a short to ground in the heated mirror element supply voltage circuit.

8. This tests for a short to ground in the door lock actuator motor.

9. This tests for a short to ground in the mirror heater.



B2287 +5V Reference Fault

U1016 Loss of Communication with PCM
??Possible low battery[/quote]

I would start with checking the battery, the battery connections, and the wiring in the driver door accordian. When you get a bunch of issues like this it is usually battery related but not always. The going diagnostic philosphy is there is almost always only one problem that is causing everything. But that is almost always not always. You could still have an EBCM issue.

Thank you guys for the help in such a short notice. I took the car to a autozone before purchasing and the only codes present were C1214 and C1296. The only issues Ive experienced or can notice are:

- Pegged oil pressure gauge
From what Ive researched a new sending unit should fix the issue.

- Intermittent Service Active Handling
EBCM? I plan on having it rebuilt. Car drives and handles great for an 02 with 100,500 miles.

Here is what I sold...




Here's what I picked up.
02 M6, Corsa Exhaust, BlackWing Air Intake and the cowl hood.
