Description of the problem | I bought my car from a used car lot in march. After about 2 weeks, i started having issues with the cruise control, after a few months, the cruise switch had to be replaced because it stopped working all together. During the time i've had the vehicle, i've had to replace the thermostat control, as well as a coil in the engine. For the past 2-3 months or so, i'll be driving down the highway and the service stability track will show up, with the traction control and the check engine light blinking. My car wont let me speed up, and it will slowly slow down. If i have my cruise on when this happens, the car's rpm will shoot up in an attempt to get back to the speed i had it set at. After about a minute with the lights on, the check engine light will stop blinking and the car will go back to normal (the traction light wont turn off until i turn off the car). I have taken my car to my mechanic, and his computer shows code uo100, which is "lost communication with engine control module", which is a very general code and could come from anywhere. He cannot figure out what is wrong with it. The wires seem connected properly, and everything seems fine, other than the light issue. It happens while i'm driving down the highway, at any random moment. It occurs at least every 3 days, if not everyday. |
