I'm wondering if a bad ignition coil would trip the ses, slip and tcs light at the same time. I know it will trip the ses light but the other two also came on this time. I'm waiting for the coil to come in at the dealer. I changed the spark plugs and three ignition coils. Before I did this the ses light was on ( bad coil ) and the other two lights would come on once in a while and then go out. Now the three lights stay on. Any ideas ? The car studders and loses power now also.

stop doing burnouts in the parking lot!

j/k. i highly doubt that the coil pack would cause all three lights to come on. the loss of power is due to the bad coil, which is normal. but the slip and tcs sounds like a whole diffrent issue.
have you been driving aggressively on a dirt road/ice/snow/sand? that could put those codes up. but other then that, i do not know. i am sorry.

hopefuly someone else can help you out on this one.

It also could be your MAF. It happend to me right before it went all the way out!!

When my coils went I had the same three lights. What will happen is the slip and tcs lights will go out on their own after about two days, but the SES light will stay on. Get the code pulled and I bet its 1320. Change all six coils and you'll be fine. That was my experience.

Does TCS off, SLIP and ABS tell you guys anything?

Only when they all come on at the same time, along with the SES light. This is a common problem with the 2K-2K1's. It refers to bad coils--P1320. Like someone said before, replace all six at the same time and you'll be good to go.

For me...the SES light didnt go off...only the TCS off SLIP and ABS. So does that mean its not the coils?

sometimes, when all the lights come on, it means low voltage.......

All 3 of my lights have been on for over a week. I ordered a MAF and just installed it. They all went out, no codes.

When My coil went bad I got the SES and Slip lights too. After replacement they all went away!

I knew it was the maf because it wouldn't go over 2400 rpm and of course my code reader said maf.

However what I was trying to indicate is that the slip and abc lights don't mean anything. They will go on because of other unrelated failures.

I made it to my dealer today and it was the #4 coil that was bad. $160 later I was good to go. The coils were selling for $32 (can) a month ago and now they're back to $100. What a rip!!!!

I got the same thing on my 2k just now (ses, slip, tcs off). The slip and tcs went off for a bit but now are back on , and just had a rumbly start, but car seems to accelerate/drive more or less normally. I called the stealership and they said coils run around 65 bucks each. Question is I looked around for a way to read the SES code and didnt see anything. How can I find out which coil is going bad? I really dont want to pay the 60 bucks diag fee just to know which coil to replace. Any thoughts?
