ey thats weird. several weeks after i got the mesasges and having the abs encoder module changed my brake lights went out too. They said the switch shorted or something like that, but it didnt write any codes, i found out when parking in the garage and seeing no lights. how come you got codes.

Mine's been in twice for that also. This last time I think it had something to do with the brakes. Had to leave the 3 in the shop a couple of days while they had the part shiped in. The dealer was real nice about it though and gave me a Saab turbo . My girlfriend told me she wishes my 3 would break down more so we could drive that car.

"Service Stability System Traction Failed"
Since this alarm came in on the DIC the cruise control no longer engaged.

How can I clear this or do I need the big ride to the dealer @ 3 3/4 years and 28,000 miles. Will warrentee cover?

The cruise control is tied into the Stability System..which will turn off cruise if you do any kind of a advoidence maneuver ..so they are related to each other.

Two weeks ago I received a Check Engine light... I called OnStar. They said it came back as a sensor in the emission system. Any way they said it was ok to drive the 3 but to go to the dealer within 7 days.

But first I disconnected the negitive battery terminal for about 1 min. Then re connnected it and started the 3. The light was gone and so was the code set. Re-checked with OnStar and they said I was cool.

I would first try disconnenting the neg battery terminal for 1 min and re connect it and see what happens. Also while it's off clean the terminal and connector.

But keep in mind if you do that you will lose all saved destinations in you NAV unit. If you have one.

Good Luck..

There can be a number of things that cause that eror light to come on. Besides what those above mentions you can add the brake switch either faulty or miss-aligned. Brake lights wont be working as a hint that it could be the cause. Worse than microsoft windows for error messages as to what is REALY wrong. Happened on mine. Reached under there and activated the brake switch a few times and a shot of WD-40 and code is gone. No return issues since July 08.

2006 H3. I have been having a problem with lights coming on. I had it towed to the dealer and @11k miles. They replaced the brake switch. The light came on, at 17k, the ebcm needed to be replaced. At 25k miles, another ebcm needed, once again at 29k master was ordered. The dealership closed and I couldn't get the part installed until it happened again at the new dealer. It finally came back on and the dealer said to resurface rotors? I didn't really understand why because I had the brakes done only @10k miles back. I was told we have to follow procedure, and the service advisor told me that they found the brake problem (kinda by accident). Turns out contamination of brake fluid from factory they believe. The brakes lines were bulging, broken inside near connector. Parts have to be located now, I am just mad that I bring it in all the time, on time, for service and concerns. Now they notice this after all this time? I need this posted just to make people aware. Thank goodness nothing happened, I always have my young child in this car. I have been nervous driving it because of the concerns, now I am afraid. I was told all the parts which have plastic on it are getting replaced. Shouldn't everything? Will this totally correct the problem? Please help. Regional manager told me that they have to search for parts because my car is not the only one with this concern!!! Check the brake lines for contaminated fluid..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
