That's goods prob just a loose connection somewhere or your car just straight up didn't like the wax maybe it was warning you lol
 
This might be a wheel bearing/speed sensor/abs something, or perhaps a fuse loose/going bad or something from what I've seen... but it's kind of infrequent, yes? interestingly, happened right after I use a PC to polish the hell out of a GP. Probably best to just start replacing parts beginning with the cheapest and moving on up.
 
hate it when random stuff happens. I changed the oil on my dad's car for him, went to start it and it won't start. Turned out the battery was dead (wtf)

Maybe you built up enough static electricity to fry the BCM or something?

That would be... a lot.

This much:

Threw a code that only a TechII could see: C0550 - Your Electronic Brake Control Module is being a little b*tch. GM manual says to replace it.

Edit: Luckily, they're only $800. Wonder if you can get it repaired.

Edit: $620
