Car Forum / Honda Cars / August 2006Off topic.
This is an off topic question about my truck. I hope you don't mind me tossing it out here as you guys are plenty sharp and helpful. It's a '98 Silverado Z71, 5.7L, 4x4, K1500, automatic. I have had the truck since it was new and it still runs great at 99,000. Yesterday all at once the ABS light came on, the speedo quit working, and it seemed like the tranny was jumping in and out of gear. Just as suddenly it all went away and the truck ran fine again. I thought I felt a light activation of the ABS at very low speed as I was stopping when I got home. I got a P0505 on the OBD (Idle control system malfunction). Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I meant you will find many more GM experts there than here. The OT thing was meant to be a joke. It evidently fell flat.

The problem is, there are too many potential gotcha's trying to guess what's wrong with a make other than what we specialize in. Not too many non-Honda people are familiar with our Main Relay, for instance. SignatureTeGGeR® The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ > >>> Post this to rec.autos.tech.

It evidently fell flat. I can be pretty slow on the uptake sometimes... Thanks TeGGeR. > This is an off topic question about my truck.

Check for corroded ground wires on all lugs, or has it ever been wet around the computer? Just guessing. 'Curly' |
