If you had this problem 20 years ago, that's when the car was new. Why didn't you have it fixed then when the car was under warranty..... If the CEL is on, how did the car previously pass any emissions or safety tests? No car with the engine light on is going to run right, but when you find the reason for the CEL & fix it, the stability & traction lights will go off by themselves.

Are we being punked? Car can't run right and can't be licensed as it will never pass smog.

You said, "these lights have gone on and off for over 20 years." Your question actually implies that the stability, trac, and CEL are a repetitive, intermittent problem..... Nice attitude for an illerate who's asking for help..... BTW, 70% of the states require smog checks. How am I supposed you live in Hillbilly land.

Took the battery cable outs for ~ 24 hrs. That solved both GX460 and RX330 lights issues.
