Default I think I have an electrical ghost...

So I had, what I think to be, an electrical ghost in the S last night. I was running a couple errands when all of a sudden my CEL comes on...awesome. I take it home and scan it, and a WHACK of codes comes up:

----------

Now, none of these have ever come up before so I was a little worried to say the least (I'm one of those **** people who scan their car once a week lol). I cleared the codes and went for a fairly long drive to see if they would come back. No CEL came up, but I thought I'd scan it again anyway...and NONE of the codes appeared, and still nothing this morning after driving to work.

So my question is....what the HELL could it have been? Anyone experience this before? Sorry for the long-winded post

Default Check your ground wires in the engine bay, and look for any wireing harnesses...

rubbing against brackets and stuff.

Default Have you experienced any flickering at all on your instrument cluster?

First thing I would do is check your connections to your battery, make sure you cant wiggle either of the wires hooked up to each lead.
