1998 Olds Cutlass- electronics sometimes possessed?

Ok so here's what's happening.

Brake light and ABS light on = no heater blower (no recirculation light/ outside air light) no rear defrost

Brake lights turn off- air light back on and blower works

When no air lights/no blower= no power windows

Brakes lights don't have to be on for no blower. But if they are on- no blower is certain.

So frustrating!! Intermittent.. fine some days. Doesn't work at all some days.

Thanks!!!

Sorry yadayada ! BCM has nothing to do with these systems . Could possibly be a ground issue or they share a power supply ! Red brake light an ABS light lit on the instrument cluster , these are probably related ! Have check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes . Brake lights an HVAC blower motor have different grounds . After looking at a wiring diagram and seeing where B+ voltage comes from the ignition switch . The brake light an ABS light come on when the EBCM - electronic brake control module looses B+ voltage . I 'm just taking a guess here but it could be an igition swith problem . Take it an have it checked , Test don't guess !

SOURCE: abs light is on

youre car needs to have an abs diagnostic work up done on it to get a trouble code and to go futher with a repair. on a cutlass the brakes will feel fine with the abs light on but they will not divert brake pressure in the event of a panic stop thus causing a wheel to skid.
good luck. chris

you may have a ABS problem. I would drive it and attemp to skid the tires an dsee if the pump activates. sometimes this will unstick any valves inside the ABS unit. you may need to have a qualified repair shop check deeper. the ABS will have a code, and a scanner will be needed to check further.

Check switch at brake pedal and relay in fusebox. Recommend replace brake light relay, as inexpensive way to possible solution.

Grinding noise in front brakes of a 1993 olds cutlass supreme

Assuming this vehicles brake linings are ok and not worn out, it sounds like you have an abs rotor fault. The abs is working while your are braking because it cant read the road speed correctly. So you are feeling the abs motor working.

that is strange. for the ABS has its own relay and so does the heater blower motor. they do not share the same outlet , I would check the wire at the bottom of the fuse box

I have a 1997 olds cutlass supreme and have no brk lites

sounds like a bad or loose ground wire, it would be located in the trunk near the tail light assembly, the other switch is for the cruise contro, it's what cuts the cruise when you hit the brakes.

Change your turn signal switch in the steering column 99% sure that is your problem you can some times check by holding the brake pedal down and wiggling the the switch around and have someone watch to see if the come on

After driving for a short time the anti-lock break light comes on

you should check the ABS system under the hood. It's where the brake fluid reservoir is. make sure you're not losing fluid. and then, check your abs sensors on wheels; they could be going bad.
