okay so at about 7:30 i go out on break at work and drive to taco bell and my car is acting normal. well when i got off at 11 i go out to my car start it up everything seems to be fine. then i noticed my ACD lights had like a mind of their own and kept switching by themselves. so im driving home and when i hit the brakes the car revs to about 3000-3200 rpms. as soon as i let off the brake pedal, its normal. well the whole way home the ACD lights kept switching between the different modes on their own and occasionally all 3 would be on, then go off. im very confused about this. anyone have any experience like this? nothing new has been done to my car in about 6 months now, so i dont even know where to start. any ideas???

You should read the manual that came with your car (or you should have). I've never heard of all three lights switching but when all three are lit up at the same time it means the ACD needs to be serviced and there is something wrong with it. I would stop driving your car and get it checked out. It could be some weird electrical issue or your ACD could be toast.

yes it was raining...

i did read my manual. but the three lights dont stay on. they come on and go off. then it seems everything is fine. then after a min they start switching by themselves

Better to be safe then sorry. It sucks going to the dealer though. Keep asking around, I would only go to the dealer as a last resort.

Do you have a tactrix cable in the obd II port by any chance? When I have mine connected on start up ... Some times all 3 of my ACD lights will blink at the same time.. and my anti-lock light will be on.. Just an idea..

Electrical short from the rain. Your car is leaking somwhere, and corroding wires.

damn i hope not, the car is brand new, only has 11,000 miles on it...
i hate wiring problems, but maybe its something simple.
ill take a look at it tomorrow

The ACD light is probably something to do with the ACD system itself...since it has so many sensors, it is hard to really pinpoint what it is...I myself had ACD problems and took me about a month a 6 times going back to the shop to have it fixed. Your car seems pretty new, and probably still has warranty, why not have the dealer read the codes from it first? That is how I fixed mine...

The brake issue is weird...could it be that it was raining, and your foot slipped on the brake a little that caused you to step on the throttle at the same time? Or you might have been wearing different shoes driving that day? There really seems to be no connection between the throttle and the brake pedal since our cars don't have Fly-by-Wire system.
