#1 of 4 Trip computer, Traction contol system display malfuction by zoomzoom10 Dec 15, 2006 (9:03 pm)
Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, 1999, 128, 000km   My displays inside my car acting up. Now when I start my car my trip computer dislaying mileage, oil life, etc.. resets to zero and blinks. It also chimes a few times like it does when you have low fuel and shows the word low. In addition my traction control light shows low trac and on my climate control one of the picture displays disappears and then reappears. Sometime my all display lights in front of me like my speedometer will shut off. Eventually as I drive most times everything seems to settle and go back to the proper settings. Sometimes it will act up again later on. It is getting pretty annoying and seems to be getting worse and affecting more things. It started off with just the trip computer then went to trac control and spread. I have been searching the internet for like symptoms and am wondering if something is shorting out or if a sensor needs to be replaced but am not sure. I've read that the ABS system is tied in with trac control and so I also wonder if it is the ABS sensor that is malfunctioning. I would greatly appreciate any insight to the possible source to these problems.
