There are many things which can cause your warning lights to go on, allot of which are not at all related to the particular thing they are warning you of. Mostly, the cars are very sensitive to stray electrical. Could be a bad plug wire, bad battery or tranmission ground, or ignition coils. It's a process of elimination. Search the site under"Christmas Tree Effect", and you will see allot of information. Also try Rennlist.

Hi - you say that

Are the issues just the lights?

Since you have a brake warning light, I'd take it moderately seriously. You need a shop that has either the Hammer or PST2 to read the codes and see if it is just an electrical problem. Up in Santa Rosa, I presume that Tillman's can take care of you. In Cotati, De Jung is a good shop as well.

Keep us posted...
