Please help! Just bought car and Problems!
I just bought a 2001 Corvette Z06 and I am having problems with the ABS and Traction Control Lights coming on. I did not see it on our first test drive but noticed it on the second. The owner said he was aware of it and tried to have it fixed. He said the ECBM was sent to ABSFIXER but it has not fixed the problem. He mentioned it may have something to do with the 19/20 Rim Combination? He really was not sure but I went ahead and purchased the car anyhow hoping their is a solution. After doing some research on these boards I managed to get the codes that are being thrown in my car. Hopefully someone can shed some light as to what these mean and what may be the problem. Any help appreciated!!
28-TCS
C1232H
AO-LDCM
B2282H
B2284H
U1064H
A1-RDCM
B2283H
B2285H
B2265H
U1064H
Another issue that I am having is the car is not locking on the drivers side door. I have sat in the car when I hit the lock and the mechanism does not close on the drivers side door. Would this be an electrical issue or is something just wrong with the mechanism?
Before I take this car to a dealership and spend lots of money, I was hoping it may be something I can fix with the right guidance!

Has the battery been recently replaced or disconnected and reconnected??? The LDCM and RDCM are typical of either a battery issue or the battery having been disconnected and reconnected.
The TCS problem is related to the left front wheel speed censor. Pull the wheel and check th wiring to the sensor and separate the connector halves and examine the pins in the connector for corrosion and/or damaged pins. The wheel speed sensors them selves seldom fail.
The door lock problem is likely the relay on the door control module. You can replace the relay yourself but if you take the car to a dealer they will replace the door control module which is more a lot more expensive.

As for the relay on the door control module, where is it located? I will gladly put in work to replace it as long as I can figure it out.
Thanks so much for your help and I will keep you posted as I try to fix the problem!
