Question
First the cruse stopped working the the traction control light came on. Then the security theft light came on. Then the directionals started to act up. Then some times it would not turn over when you would try to start. Should I just get a stick of TNT?

Answer
Hi Jeremy:

The trac/abs is common on these vans more then likley it has a bad wheel bearing on it. Not to say that the issues are not related because they can be. I would fist off take a look at the battery and battery cables the cables on these vans get nasty looking with corrosion. If that is the case get the base electrical sytstem checked out on this van battery sarting and charging system. if there is an issue ther it can effect all of the electrical systems in the van. Stop by one of the box auto parts stores and have it scanned for codes and see what codes(s) are stored and it will give you a clue ast to where to start looking for a possable common cause to these issues.. Good luck :-}
