    Okay so my grand prix is getting on in years and miles, but its having all sorts of electronic issues that have slowly been occurring. My dash is lowly becoming a field of various orange lights. First the airbag light went, then a few months passed and the security light went. Had to have that reprogrammed b/c it kept shutting off the engine when i started it. Then the traction control and ABS went on the same day. What a mess... I really need the car to get me through college after which i can hopefully get a job and a new car. Does anyone have an idea what this might be? It seems weird that all these systems are slowly going. I really have very little idea about electronics, but could it be the actual computer? Seems like the only common denominator for all these separate things as far as I know. If you have any recommendations for how i should proceed please help! Thanks!

    Not sure on airbag
    TCS/ABS, either fix the bad wire leading to the wheel hub or change the bad wheel hub.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Yes at each wheel. You need to scan or figure out which one is bad before you buy new ones.
