2000 Pontiac Montana please help
Good morning everybody
maybe this isn't the right group to post in. I have a 2000 Pontiac Montana minivan with activevan conversion. I just turned 44,000 mi. and I am getting a service traction system light that always comes on. Does anyone here have/have this problem? Just wondering how to turn off this annoying light. Thought I would try a posting here and a Pontiac newsgroup. Thanks again everyone Daniel |

I just turned 44,000 mi. and I am Activan! Is this the same as wheel access van? -- Side or rear ramp? Kneel or air suspension? The chassis, engine placement, etc have been so damn altered I get scared looking at those things <G> If the traction control system is off and the light is on -- is an indication that your antilock brakes may have an issue! ASAP take the van in and have the ABS system checked out! BBA |

Thank you for the reply
it is a wheelchair access van; side entry ramp does not have air bags suspension so I am assuming air suspension. We just had brakes installed at Midas. They put on new rotors pads, shoes and I guess the brakes are ceramic. Is there a way to reset this light service traction system? After a few tries on the computer. It says trac off. Did Midas do something wrong? Please write back thanks Daniel "Billy Bad Assr©" > wrote in message ... > "Dan Rzonca" > wrote in message > news:yV4Qd.32525$6u.15888@fed1read02... >> Good morning everybody >> maybe this isn't the right group to post in.

We just had brakes installed at Midas. Air suspension system is the Airbag System!!! - Chassis has been replaced with one that has no rear suspension!!! -- <grin> is there an air pump in the engine compartment??! If the answer is yes then you have the rear airbag (pneumatic) suspension system -- And YES your entire chassis has been replaced! Does it have mechanical hand controls, hydraulic, or? 1st you need to take it back to Midas -- Request that there lic. Tech fix their mistake -- Let them know what the issue is. ....Next time you have any work done on your van I recommend that you have a licensed auto tech do the work! Don't take it to Midas, tune-up masters, oil slick, or any of those fast-food-service-stations type places -- unless you don't mind getting ripped off, I mean poor, unreliable service! if you like you may e-mail me direct -- remove the socks!
