All,

After about 10 min of driving today, I got a flshing arrow and CEL. Before I got the lights, there were about a couple of seconds during which the car refused to accelerate (slipping tranny?). The car was lacking power for about 30 sec after the lights were on. Then driving seemed ok (and drived the car with flashing arrow for about 5 min). Restarted the car after it's off for about 10 min, flashing light went away; but CEL stayed on.

Pulled the codes. There're no faulty code in A2. Got 1-1-4 and 1-2-2 from A1, and 2-1-3 and 2-1-4 from A3. (There was no response in A6 and A7. A5 is empty). Cleared the codes from both A1 and A3 and CEL went away. But ABS light stayed on after codes in A3 were cleared. ABS light turned off after I tested driving the car (hope I didn't mess up the ABS system).

Today is a cool, but damp day here. (always suspect weather could have something to do with driveability. Maybe just superstition) Flushed the tranny with Mobile 1 a couple of weeks ago. Fluid level was fine.

The codes seem to point to different things. What's the story?

Thank you for your help.

Best,
