damn active handling!

[C_U_LATER_ZO6]

hey guys i got a 2002 c5 zo6, and im having a problem, the active handling light comes on time to time and it says to service it soon, what is it exactly i got to service and where on the car is it? any help id appreciate

The first thing I would check is to see is the battery. If it is close to 3 years old, it could be causing your DTC codes. If not the battery, then you probably have a legitimate problem and I'd see your local stealership.

Mine has been doing that for about a year now. I get all three messages. Service Active handing, ABS and Traction control. It happens once every two to three weeks then on a restart it's gone and I'm good again. I am guessing that my EBCM is the culprit but at about $1,400.00 or so to replace it I'm waiting for it to go completley. ABS fixer sells rebuilt units for about $300.00 if I remember correctly

i dont get all three messages just the one, service active handling, so is it the ABS module that controls that?

I'm no expert but since you only get the one message maybe it's something else.

i really dont wanna go to a dealership, unless i really have to, but lately its been raining a lot here maybe moisture has gotten to the module, or somethin, guess ill have to wait to find out what the heck

Just a thought in case...did you change your tires or sizes. I put 18's all around on my o3 and it set all the lights off!!

Sent you a PM

It could be the steering wheel position sensor, have you pulled the codes. Mine gives the same message from time to time

[TM-Z06]

It's hard to track down the issue without knowing which code you're setting off. Pull the codes and post them. The most common TCS errors seem to be 1214 (bad EBTCM) and 1287/1288 (bad steering wheel position sensor)

[C_U_LATER_ZO6]

k ill try that, thanks

[C_U_LATER_ZO6]

this is what i found, 28-TCS C1281H, 28-TCS C1287H, AO-LDCM B2202H, AO-LDCM B2206H, AL-RDCM B2265H, now can someone tell me what each one means,

[C_U_LATER_ZO6]

guess i have a bad steering wheel position sensor also

[C_U_LATER_ZO6]

the H meaning History and not C(urrent) so is that code in affect in the car or not?
