For the past year my TC light, ABS light, check engine light, anti-theft light turned on. When all those lights are on my emergency brake light pops on and off and my car jerks like it's trying to shift.

These lights could all be related but we need to find out for sure first otherwise we are just guessing what this could be.

This means we need to start with checking for codes and here are a couple guides that will help with this:

If you don't know anyone that has a scan tool, then I would stop by a parts store, and they should be able to pull the codes for you for free.

At least at that point we will have a better idea which way to turn. The reason is, this could be a wheel speed sensor or even a control module issue but then again, they could all be separate issues.

So, let's start with codes and we can go from there.

Thanks
