    Night before last it went to -35 with the wind chill. This morning I have ABS, Trac Off, Check Engine, Slip Indicator lights on and they won't go out. Everything seems to be operating correctly even 4 wheel drive. Any idea what's up?

    No I don't have a code reader. Right now I think everything is off as I've been sliding and slipping everywhere.

    Find somebody with obd2 code reader or take it into a shop to get them run.

    I wouldn't Reccomend without getting codes but can undo battery to reset system and see if its just a glitch because of temps.

    I've done it before to get home but I always carry an obd2 scanner.

    Edit* welcome to TW!

    Thanks, I'll get it into the shop. Only -9 today [without the wind] to cold to be doing it myself and I don't see it warming up soon.

    Wonder if some sort of ice build up pulled on an ABS wire.. Are you sure 4x4 is actually working? I didnt think that system would engage with ABS lights on but I could be wrong.

    Also for what its worth wind chill doesnt matter to inanimate objects like trucks. It will never get colder than the ambient temp of the air, so thats good

    Maybe a varmint crawled up in your engine bay to warm up and chewed part of a harness overnight.

    It has been happening left, right, and center lately. Have you looked under the hood?
