I was driving down the street when I noticed that the abs light was going on and activating. So I stoped at the store got back in the car started driving back home. The abs started up again. Then a bunch of other weird thing started to happen. Like the rms along with all the other guages were jumpin up and down. Oil temp light flickering. Check enging light flickering. The blinker made a really weird noise then as soon as I got in my drive way the car shut off. Since then it will not turn on if I turn the key it will try and turn the engine. But then shut right off. Whats going on? Please help me!

Hum. I had a similar thing happen to a more modern car, everything was flashing and beeping. Try disconnecting your battery, turning on your car & listen to radio till it dies out to eat up any juice left in the system, then let it sit for a while. Reconnect and if that don't work then it isn't a simple command error.

This is the normal way to reset computers, lets see if car computers work the same way.
