My 04 does exactly the same thing every once in a while. Have never been able to pinpoint the cause, but the fix for me is to put a charger on the Battery. Despite showing a charge, it seems that the electronics on some of our cars are very sensitive to a battery that is slightly down on charge.SINCYRE1 said:I wanted to know if anyone can help me with a problem im haveing with my car starting, it seems that once in a while when I try to start my car it wont crank and the LED in the dash for the Anti theft starts to flash reall fast and after a while it will blink 1 and then 6 times and at the same time on my message board I get Check Traction Control.

its the battery, my friend had that same issue with a 2000 ls6 - he replaced the battery and that fixed the proble.
Thanks for the help, ill take a look into that, im jus wondering if the battery can be defective or jus have lost some of its charge even though I bought the battery in Sept of 2005? I thought it could be relay or maybe I had to reprogram my PCM, but ill try replacing the battery first. Once again thanks for your help.
