C5 2001 issue
Hey there to all and first Happy New Year all the BEST!!
My son has kept my old C5 2001 vette. It is in very well condition and we treat it well. However, it has started with an issue that it seems to go crazy and starts displaying ALL of the following at the same time...:::
low oil level
ABS
low fuel
Well, basically it starts to display every "check engine" light that is on the DIC all at same time. If you shut it off "only" sometimes they go away for a while BUT they come right back...
Any one out there seen this or know what may be the cause of this. I was the second owner of this vette and it really has been very well kept.
Please advise and thank you in advanced.

It's electronic. These things are super sensitive to electronic disruptions. Mine did the same thing, and it turned out to be a loose connection under the seat AND an issue with the passenger side door wiring connector.
I took the connections apart and cleaned them with contact cleaner then reassembled. Problem gone. There's some documentation on the forum about the door issue if you search around a bit.
