Electrical Problems? Help!

Today I pulled the car out and immediatley the ABS INOP light and LOW TRACTION light came on .. .. Now I heard a clicking under the hood so i checked it out.. seems to be the abs pressure system clicking as if i were sliding on wet pavement.. shortly after the brake light came on. Anyone know what the hell is goin on?

Start by checking tightness of the upper and lower nut on the passenger fender ground point. It's a few inches away from the positive junction on the inner passenger fenderwell.

For future reference, when you post a tech question, its a good idea to include the year of your car, model, engine, etc...... not all these cars are the same.

Sounds like low voltage. Check the ground as suggested and state of charge.
