Hey just hoping some1 can help me. My calais began playing up with the air con cuttting out causing the abs and traction control light to turn on the dash.... when it first started it was only when the air con was on now it does it wheather its on or off and now the battery light flickers on and off. This is now causing the car battery to become completly drained on a regular basis... the battery has been tested and is fine. Somedays you can drive it n doesnt play up others it wont start and have to jump start her and others it wont even jump start. Been put on TECH2 too many times resulting in no errors coming up at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated! =) Thanks Rissa
