It started out with my anti-lock brakes going off when I started out or stopped at slow speeds. Seemed to get worse when it's wet out. So I was kinda thinking it would be a sensor or bearing going out. Well the problem has seemed worse today. My radio shuts off when I put it in gear, and then the display comes on and plays music for a little bit, then the music will cut out and the display is still on. My Cruise control also did not work until about 10 minutes into my drive. The radio didn't work right until about 10 minutes into my drive also. My keyless entry has never worked right totally. It would arm but not totally lock all the time. I wouldn't think this would be part of the problem, but could that problem be getting worse causing me other problems? Is my computer going bad? Would a bearing or sensor going bad cause the radio and cruise control issue? I've got alot of questions, I know. I've just got done fixing my transmission so I didn't want to see another issue for a while. But I guess this is what happens when you have a car with 150,000 miles on it. 80,000 of the miles that I drove it, and I constantly have it to the floor, so I haven't exactly treated it right either...

Thanks in advanced for any help or suggestions.

My guess is going to lean towards your ECM / BCM going bad.

sounds like alternator problems.

hopefully you don't have the DOHC and can pop it off with a few bolts and get it tested at the local auto parts store for free. as for the locks mine don't always have enough push to get them all the way locked and unlocked. this is only when its cold and the battery struggles tho.
116,000 miles. stock engine. Alpine 7875. Diamond audio M6 components and 6x9s. 2 Type R 10s. Old rockford bd 500 and an older kicker 250w 2 channel. It still rattles everywhere.
