Service lights on...
Several days ago I drove my "new" 2001 C5, with 20,000 miles from Orlando, Florida to Tallahassee, Florida, without a problem. Last Friday I had the local Chevy dealership change out all fluids, replace radiator hoses, clamps and cap...and serpentine belt and ac belt. They also put in at no charge the skip shift eliminator
(what a pleasant change!). So with all fluids changed including brake fluid, I had them check all the brake pads. This weekend it has been a pleasure driving my little beauty. When I started her up late this afternoon, the following messages kept coming up....
Service ABS, Service Traction System, Service Active Handling. So what's up? I am thinking it must be related to something they did when they had my car for a full day that needs to addressed. I am planning to take the car back to the dealership first thing in the morning. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

I'm a babe in the woods here...my first Corvette...and totally green on this stuff. Will try to have the dealership that serviced it last Friday take a look at it early tomorrow, if they will. I am not up to speed on codes, etc, obviously a lot to learn.

Suggest that you pull the code yourself and post them here BEFORE going to the dealer. If you have never pulled codes before here is how:

OR
http://www.c5forum.com/ayc/dtcdic.php
Post ALL the codes including the H or C or HC that follow each 5 character code. List the codes under the sensor they show under. ie 10 - PCM or 28 - tcs or 40 - BCM.
Codes you are particularly interested in are under 28 - TCS.
I would be armed with as much info on what is going on with your car as possible BEFORE having the Stealership touch it. JMHO as I do NOT trust Stealerships AT ALL.
