Default Service Traction/Handling Systems

When initiating my turn signals recently on my 02 C5, I started experiencing issues with them periodically not working. Sometimes while the turn signal lever is actuated but the turn signals are not working, they will randomly start working. All of the other functions of that same lever operate fine. So I thought maybe there was a bad connection with the turn signals only. But then I thought I’d try using the hazards since it’s the same lights. They also would only periodically work and I received the “ Service Traction System “ and “ Service Active Handling “ message after activating the hazards. My traction control light also comes on and stays on. Any known issues with this and what the fix is? Thanks!

This might be a long shot, but check your engine bay grounds and your battery voltage.

Before randomly checking grounds, post your codes.
