Default ABS, Traction Control, and Check Engine Lights Fix

I have a 2001 Corvette that has abs, traction control, and check engine light. First the check engine light came on and then the abs and traction control randomly turned on at the same time. I ran my codes and wondering is there a way to get these off. It runs good so just tryna get rid of them if I can or see what’s wrong. Also my check engine light will clear if I manually clear it but comes back very quickly. The Abs and traction control cleared a couple times when they first came on but now they stay on constantly.

I don’t think any of those DTC’s you have stored and most are H or history codes will illuminate the MIL (check engine light)…I’d erase all of them and on the next ignition cycle before you shut the car off check for the codes again and see what’s current (C)…those C codes you have are most likely related to the TPMS system but I haven’t looked them up.

C1242 & C1243 means your abs pump isn't or didn't cycle. This is what i did to fix it.

Jack up the front of the car.
From the the bottom of the ABS module disconnect the small connector. ​​​​​​ Take a jumper cable from the battery and attach wires to the end. Touch the connectors and cycle the pump. Do it a couple of times. Then reconnect the connector restart the car.

Hope thIs works for you
