No idea - call a dealer and ask.

Wow, really? I took it into the dealership and they "read the codes". The car is a V8, and they told me it was the harness that ran under the driver seat. They want to charge me "around" $1400.00 to fix it. That's nice to know. I decided to hold off on the repair since it isn't affecting the cars performance. I have, to date, replaced 6 of the 8 spark plugs and coil wires, at over $300 each, so unless it is one of the other 2, I think I'm beat. Will be trying the coil spring soon. Thanks a bunch! We all appreciate your words of wisdom!

Just a note, regarding paying too much for plugs and coil packs.. Its very possible to change out the coils and spark plugs at home, by yourself on a V8. I did all of mine today in just a matter of a couple of hours. You can buy the right spark plugs and coils ahead of time. Take your time and pay attention to what you are doing and do them all for under $500 bucks easy.. Its pricey, but its still better than paying out the wahzoo for someone else. Incidentally, my steering wheel functions don't work either, and for the life of me why would it have to do with anything under the driver seat! Someone please enlighten -- me seriously! Thanks,

If the steering wheel functions don't work or do random things it's most likely the clock spring in the steering wheel.
