I purchased my first Corvette (1999) last month and I'm enjoying the heck out of it. That being said, I am looking for any suggestions that anybody may have on this issue...
The traction control and ABS lights came on once a couple weeks ago. After a couple miles, I stopped and turned the vehicle off and back on. The lights went out and all was well. Fast forward a couple weeks and the 2 lights popped back on. After the light wouldn't go out, I pulled the code and the only current one that continuously shows is C1255. I read in numerous forums that cleaning the grounds could fix this issue and I'm thinking the EBCM may need to be fixed. A buddy and I thoroughly cleaned the 2 grounds that are over the right and left fenders and this didn't change anything.
Which brings me to my questions:
Should I try to find the other grounds and clean those? We didn't really see any others while looking around the engine compartment but looking at a scan of the locations of the grounds, there must be others. Or should I figure it's the EBCM malfunctioning (which is quite common from what I read)? A repair shop told me they send the EBCM out to a company in California. Does anybody happen to know who this company would be so I can contact them myself?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
