so i just got my 97 528iA back from the dealer after an EWS malfunction. im driving home, and the roads are pretty wet so im taking it easy for a change and totally out of the blue, the yellow triangle light with the exclamation point in it (traction contol i think) comes on, along with the ABS light. i REALLY dont feel like giving the dealer any more of my hard earned money, so does anyong have any experience/ideas?

Might be your module, its common with our car... you can have it rebuilt for lik 300$

sounds like a bad/loose speed sensor- I think.

this could also happen when your battery is half dead also, I had the same thing happen to me on my E38 and changed out the battery and never came back since
