service abs, traction control, ect??
I was just going about 90 and went over a dip and the car jumped up a little, nothing happened, but right after my car said service abs, service traction control, service active handling? Did my car just tweak out or?

The only time I got that message was right after I worked on the rear brakes. A quick inspection revealed that one of the electrical connectors to the wheel speed sensor came loose. A quick push on the connector fixed the problem. Your taking a big bounce may have loosened one or more of yours.

My first thought as well
When you lose signal to one of those wheel sensors, AH, TC, and ABS all shut off and your DIC will make you think the apocalypse is coming.
Been there! But you really should check the codes.

If you say so. I recommend servicing anything like that in left-right pairs anyway. If one side is bad chances are the other is as well.

There's 1 wiring harness going to the speed sensor on each wheel. They are the only wires you'll see going to the hub. That harness, particularly the outboard (wheel) end of it, has a tendency to loosen and corrode over time with the vibration and motion of the hub and exposure to the elements. It's very easy to pull apart, clean, and/or replace. But if you don't feel comfortable with that then take it in.

Thanks. I'm sure I can handle that, any idea where I would get a cheap one if I needed to replace it?

I'm having this problem (and I am sorry for hi-jacking this thread) with a ABS, TCS, AH related code:
C1272 H
It's a 2003 conv. and I think the code means "LF TCS Valve Solenoid Malfunction"... well that's not the problem, the problem is that the code re-appears as a historic code after being deleted... I was under the impression that if the error persisted it would come back as a Current code..??
This is what it looks like when I deleted all the codes.

Any ideas on why it won't come back as current? Is there something I have done wrong?
