sounds like a wheel speed sensor is causing the abd light to come on therefore triggering the tcs. The tcs is reading a malfunction which is why you cant turn it on or off.

I was just about to ask you how much you picked it up for till I finished reading. I bought the same thing except a Z28. Same Mileage and Year. I paid exactly double for mine about 4 months ago but I didnt see any real issues with it at the time. Only thing wrong now is I threw the SES light this past week end for running rich on bank 1 & 2. So I've got to work that out now.
