So this morning on my way to work my "traction control off" light went on. I thought I hit the button by accident but the traction control wouldn't come back on no matter when I did and how many times I pressed the button. Then, about 3/4 the way to work the traction control came back on by itself. Anybody know what would cause this?

Second thing is that I went to put gas after work because my tank was on "E" and after a few seconds of pumping the handle returned to the off position and gas started spurting back out at me from the filler tube. To make a long story short, this happend three times before I just gave up. I did take out the handle out a couple times too. Has this happened to anybody, or does anyone know what would cause this?

on just the TC light alone, i would suggest a wheel speed sensor... but add in the malfunctioning gauges, and maybe a bad ground bus?

but those are somewhat guessese

The gas gauge is a common problem. Mine does it..stays on empty until 3/4, then stays on full.

There'* a write-up in the "common problems" thread..involves replacing the sending unit with an updated part.

This is the thread on the fix for the fuel sender.

If the problem is just starting, you can try a Techron fuel additive, or the additive that GM sells to see if that helps. We haven't had many (if any) reports where it has, as it is better as a preventative measure than a fix.

Check each connection at the wheel speed sensors, clean them, and put them back together with a dab of silicone grease. If that doesn't solve your issue, have it scanned to see where the problem is. The most common cause is a bad wheel speed sensor in one of the hubs, but there are other possibilities. A scan tool that has the capability to read the abs codes is needed. Many do not.

Well as far as the wheel speed sensor, thats a possibility. I do have a lot of brake dust build up in the wheels as the Dealership I bought the car from put crappy pads on before I bought the car. Maybe it just needs to be cleaned?

Now the gas issue, I am deffinatly low on gas. The car is not full of gas. I'm positive because I know when I last filled up and how many miles I drove.

You may have a problem with the check valve that is at the bottom of the fuel filler tube. That is supposed to limit the "spit-back" during refueling. Do you have the problem if you put the fuel in slowly, also?

The traction control thing... I watched my wife drive our Bonneville through a snow bank as she left the house. She calls me on the cell phone and says the traction control light came on. I told her it'* probably because she just drove through a snow bank and there'* snow obstructing something. Sure enough, after about 25 miles the traction control started working again. I think the snow fell out or melted.

The last two posts answered the question I think perfectly!!!

Yes, the fuel thing still happened even when I put gas in slowly, it just took more time to spit back out at me. I was able to successfully put 10 bucks in yesterday though! I don't know if the fact that it was extremely cold on the day my problem happened had anyhing to do with it.

And for the traction control thing, I can be pretty sure that I drove through a lot of snow. Maybe some just got stuck in there like you suggested.
