Possibly, one of the codes mentions the connection of grounds G101 (on the frame rail behind the LH headlight) and G104 (below the battery tray on the frame rail).

Does anybody think brake fluid leaking on an electrical ground could be causing these problems? After further evaluation it appears that I have brake fluid leaking from a black, round drum that I believe is referred to as a brake booster (attached to the brake fluid reservoir, on the driver's side, inside the engine bay, just in front of the dash). It appears that this leak drips directly on the chassis ground that is just below it. The leak seems to be more extensive while the engine bay is warm. This might explain alot. Please give me your thoughts. Thank you.
The leak needs to be fixed (to avoid brake failure!) and the ground checked.

If a proper grounding washer is employed and the bolt is tight I doubt brake fluid would be causing your electrical issues. I'm with Bill on the urgency to solve the cause of the fluid leak, particularly if you happen to live or drive near me!
