Default Dash Issues

I don't know where to file this because its a weird issues.

When I'm driving down the highway the abs light and brake light flash on and the chime sounds then my stability control light flashes and stays on all while the speedometer goes to zero. As long as the lights are flashing the speedometer sticks to zero.

Any idea what's up?

I had my left rear sensor wire pull from the frame and make contact with the exhaust pipe, melting and shorting the wires, doing the same thing. Check you wires, then see if any codes are stored (might have to get them read at the dealership), to see which is causing the problem.

I'll check the wiring.

I'm still under warranty if anything

Also check that your battery connections are tight. If you can twist them with your hand, they're loose.

The dealership called and said the code sitting out there is a bad abs sensor. Hopefully that fixes it
