I was on the freeway and exited. I traveled from light to light and it started to sputter. I made it maybe 1 mile before it died and now wont turn over. I saw the SES light come on before this all happened.

Battery is all good. I tried to start it after I pushed it to a parking spot. I tried again this morning. It wont fire up. The SES light was on. I need a person who is familiar with the L98. I also realize the code must be read. I am looking for possible problems.
