Hi Cal,
It is possible that there are several things going on here. The first thing to do is check for fault codes stored in the various controller memories. Use the ignition key:"on-off-on-off-on and leave on" doing that in 5 seconds or less elapsed time. Then watch the odometer window in the cluster to see it change from mileage instead to show 4-digit numbers prefixed with a P. Then let me know the numbers and we'll go from there. Also, please expain which controls on the wheel don't work, and which abs light that you expect to work doesn't work for 5-10 minutes. Also let me know the size of engine that you have.
Roland
