2008Saturn Vie with warning lights for traction control system, electronic stability system, antilock brakes and all wheel drive. Ran into town and it seemed ok. Disconnected the battery but lights came back right away. Ok to drive it to st. Paul or not. Thanks for your help

Ok to drive. Just know that some of those systems will not function while the light is on.

Roads were dry this afternoon, shouldn't need any of that stuff.

I have a 2009 Vue and the same thing happened to me shortly after buying it used. I brought it back in to the dealer and they said that it need all 4 wheels re-alined. They said some how the back set of wheels became missed alined with the front causing it to make the traction system try to engage when going around a curve? They did the work and I have not had an issue since. Not sure if that is your issue or not but it could be?

Bought four tires two weeks ago. Could that be a cause? What should be done to figure it t? Thanks again.

Best bet is to bring it into a Chev dealer and let them find out what the issue is since those system are all tied into each other and are a bit complex.

The problem ended up being a bad crimp on a line near the top of the harness. It took about 6 hours to find and repair it but the shop only charge for 3.5 hours. Nice to have a shop that is willing to do this type of adjustment. I don't know how the diagnosis works and why it took so long to find and repair the problem, but again having a shop that will make these types of adjustments is worthy of my business.

Good news! Wiring shorts can be a nightmare to run down!
