ABS and ETS issue

ok this 98 achieva has a new issue

we solved the security not allowing the car to run at startup issue finally

but now it has a new one

it is eating alternators and batteries

literally

out of the blue for no reason

originally GM said the a/c had a short in it

the fuse was blown

they also said there was/is a short in the a/c system somewhere, and the a/c fuse was burnt, they unplugged the compressor but we didnt know it until recently

this caused the auto trans shifter to not come out of park and when you manaully got it out of park to drive it it felt like it was stuck locked in the torque converter very hard to accelerate

this original compressor clutch coil had very low resistance so i swapped the compressor for one with a little more resistance in it

well it ate another alternator now

i had the diodes replaced in it for 35 bucks yesterday

so far its ok still but who knows for how long until it zaps it again

the ABS light comes and goes

dealer also said something about an ABS harness and i guess a wheel sensor being bad

the ETS light is permanently on now, it didnt used to be

the switch for it does nothing

i felt all the relays in the car and none are warm or anything bad

i heard something about a bad wheel sensor can cause the abtcm to short to ground

wondering if maybe this is the culprit on fried alternators?


damn these cars are an electrical nightmare

wow

never seen so many problems one after another,

fix one and a new one occurs

we are trading the car off for a newer better one soon


such as an 04 GP GT 3800

or similar

any suggestions on a good car like this to get withotu electrical issues?

we are unloading this nightmare car

we thought we had it fixed with the security system finally figured out

but nope,

wow...


thanks for anything
