2006 Grand Prix Electrical issues

**gxpjoe** · 10-14-2017

Hi, I recently installed an aftermarket radio to my 2006 Grand Prix GXP. I used a couple of adapters, one being the ASWC-1 adapter and I've been noticing that probably about every third time I turn my car on, quite a few of my warning lights chime. It isn't just that the lights turn on, the functions like traction control and power steering are actually disabled. I have been asking around and I've been told that it's bad wiring. Does anyone know any details on this?
Thanks.

The warnings probably have nothing to do with the radio. You eithervhaveca bad hub or wiring going to the hub. When thst happens it affects Magnasteer too.

Ya I know it's probably nothing to do with the radio itself, but I think it does have to do with the wiring to the radio. Do you what issue in the wiring would cause that? It's quite a few warning lights that are triggered (~5 or 6).

It's not the wiring to the radio. The ABS will cause all those lights.

Well, it's a GXP so there could be one wire in the radio harness that can cause that. There is a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) wire for the nav system. If it got pinched or shorted out that may be an issue.

That being said, Stealthee is correct that it's something to do with wheel hub sensor. Intermittent problem would suggest maybe a bad ground or dirty connector at the hub.
