Default Winter mods on 99 c5

Hey All! Looking to make some mods on my 99 coupe over the winter. So currently I am getting the dreaded service active handling and abs BUT it is not all the time. Sometimes it will come on when I am at a full stop! Then I have the Ole shocks inoperative speed limit 80mph max. I've been on the highway when this happened and nothing happened after 80mph. I was still able to exceed that! Is there something that I could check like a wheel bearing or connection somewhere to help find this issue? I am looking to swap out the shocks but will not be replacing with oem due to the price! I do have the F55 with adjustable ride currently so if I change shocks will I need to program that out? I would imagine I would still get the code? Could there be a broken connection somewhere that I can check? Gonna get it up on jackstands soon but want to hear some feedback on what I might be able to purchase ahead of time. Thanks

first check the codes, cant really buy anything until you know whats wrong. could be the ebcm, wheel bearing or the harness going to it.
