A buddy is bringing over his laptop and OBD connector so I can troubleshoot it more and find out whats doing it. Also my coworker is going to follow me and check the brake lights after work.

Should I be looking for a sensor that reacts in an odd way right before the unlock? Log it all and go from there? I hate to be a newb but I havent ever needed to pull more than a code but am typically very capable of just about anything thats wrong.

You probably will need to log data to see what's going on. I suspect one of the sensors is sending data that is causing the unlock.

Well.... Premature evaluation. TPS almost seems to have made it worse. Going to run with a friends laptop and software tomorrow and log it all in hopes to find it.

I have the scanner running and I am going to go over across the valley today after work and should have some good data about what is occuring before/during this problem.

Well Mark, I have about 1.5 hours of recorded data from today, did it on and off during the same situation... but I dont see anything jumping out at me on the log. Only thing I se reacting at the time of the RM change is the bank 1 Sensor 2 O2 Sensor goes from ~ 0.8 forever to ~ 0.2 for about 50 seconds then climbs back up there...

Do you have a way to read the log?
